  • Another huge thanks to Thrustmaster for sending out what I believe to be one of the best overall pro controllers for shooter games. I absolutely love the controller, and plan to make more content featuring it in the future! Be sure to let me know in the comments below what other controllers you'd like to see me feature on the channel. You may just end up seeing it sometime! Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed this review and if you did, please be sure to drop it a like and sub if you're new. I hope to see you in the next one!

    Fun fact, sega solved stick drift over 20 years ago. the analog thumbstick on the dreamcast controller is 100% drift proof. the mechanism uses magnets for the analog stick instead of potentiometers like modern controllers. you can grab any beat up dreamcast controller thats 20 years old and it'll still work like a champ.

    Those Eswap S or X sticks don't drift they literally start to spike at some point. Had this a few times but there is an easy fix! On the backside from these sticks are 3 little screws! Open it, remove the little top case and the stick cap. Start doing circles with the pure stick and make sure you cover the whole range of this stickzone. Every direction multiple times! Just move it around and don't forget to keep everything clean and dust free! Put everything togehter and thats it. Takes like 2 mins. I highly recommend doing this before buying new sticks! Hope it helps somebody!

      @@unclediscord3654 hi, I just got the eswap S yesterday and I’m really liking it. I was thinking about getting the X but I did watch reviews and I had a feeling that I would not like the button placement for that controller. I then stumbled upon the eswap S, watched couple vids and ordered. I am liking it so far. Feels good, doesn’t feel high end, but doesn’t feel cheap. Back Buttons are good for the way I play and use them. I have medium to big hands. I don’t know if I would recommend to people with small hands for sure. The ABXY are mechanical, so with the elite series 1, they are the regular big squishy kind and u can fat finger those (press 2 at the same time), with these mechanical ones, it’s harder to do that, that’s one thing I noticed. But they do sound nice, everything I up to par. Good controller, good buttons for me, bumpers sink a lil deeper but are nice and sound nice. I recommend so far. As far as durability, I hope everything is well, I’ve only ever had stick drift issues with the elite series 1 and I had e of them. I hope that that’s the worst it gets with this Eswap, so I could just be able to swap it out if it drifts.

I watched you a ton when I was starting out and learning how to review controllers and even though I'm a lot better now you're still leagues ahead of me in quality. I try to focus on getting videos uploaded often cause I just love getting new things, trying them out and reviewing them but I see you really take your time to make the best video possible and it really shows! Makes me think that maybe I should take more time to make better videos (but I get bored when I stay on one video too long😅). I don't know if I'll ever make a controller review as good as you but for you to have noticed me I literally feel on top of the world right now. Big dream come true man.

      Don't downplay yourself! Your reviews are great man, I truly enjoy them. Entertaining tech reviewers are a rare commodity that I cherish dearly, and more people should
      Everyone's reviews have their own unique spin, trust me, you burn out very fast making videos in the fashion that I do. Effort is good when it's worth the time. If you don't feel the need to work on a project any further for it to be complete, then its complete! Stepping outside of your boundaries is a necessity when it comes to UA-cam, but not when it comes at the cost of your enjoyment. Then it becomes a problem
      Keep grinding, keep experimenting, and keep up the great work man! This platform needs people who care, and enjoy what they do. I'll be keeping an eye out for your next review!

      Thank you! I appreciate the kind words
      Unfortunately I haven't had any recent hands on experience with battle beavers controllers, but I do have one of their sticks by itself. One thing I do know is that their increased tension thumbsticks are equal to XB360 sticks. The EXTREME increased tension sticks, however, are far harder to use. So Increased tension might help, but extreme may be too much. At least it felt that way from my perspective. In comparison to the Eswap sticks, it truly isn't comparable lol

    I personally would be interested in an updated comparison between these two Thrustmaster controllers (as well as others). Based on how these controllers feel now with my recent holiday purchase it seems like a lot of the good changes they applied to the eSwapS might have also been applied to the eSwapX as well. Such as the removable D-Pad feeling click-y now, etc. If this is indeed the case then based on the different thumbsticks and the RB/LB buttons the eSwap might actually come out ahead overall. Minus the back buttons. Those unfortunately haven’t changed positions.

      This is the main issue I wanted to tackle when I started making reviews
      It may just sound like senseless rambling when I talk about it on stream, but I truly feel like all tech content is homogeneous. Every tech reviewer Kisses the ass of the company they're talking about to stay in their good graces. They want to collab with them later and being critical could kill that. Also, being critical about something people enjoy is a slippery slope, you could upset some people
      And back on homogeneity, every tech review feels identical. Which is something I plan on making a small video about in the future. Everyone just copies that guys at the top, bland script, basic Shots of the product they're reviewing, pretty colors, only positive notes, no personality, etc.

    Thanks for making these videos, truly helpful.
    After watching 20 different ones I'm still not sure what I should choose for FPS play on PC. I'm coming to terms with the fact these controllers need to be replaced often and that's certainly the case with my awful Scuf Prestige which was my first pro controller. With that said I know you gave the new model a decent review and despite me not wanting to give them anymore money it seems like a top choice.
    If you had to suggest one controller to use everyday as of now, which would you suggest? Should I wait for a companies newer iteration if there's one in the near future? Or just fully transition to MnK? Any help would be grest thanks!

    • @vCuda
      @vCuda  Рік тому +4

      It'd probably be cheaper and more fruitful long term to switch to Mouse and keyboard. Even I can't deny that
      But if you'd like a controller for daily use, tbh anything would be better than a scuf. Surprisingly, the Instinct Pro seems to be holding up much better than older scuf Xbox Controllers. So it isn't a terrible wireless option. But for wired controllers, the victrix gambit, Fusion pro 2, or even something like the PowerA Spectra would do you well. None are likely to last 10 years, but that applies to every Controller nowadays

    I really want him to review the XIM Nexus!!!! I have one these and I absolutely love it.
    All the settings such as button mappings, stick curves and stick or trigger deadzones. Seperate aiming sensitivity.are all programmable through Bluetooth in an app on your phone along with being able to create interesting macros for your buttons. With real-time display and the ability to save configs for each and every game you play. 4 paddle buttons + another ability for enabling Gyro Aiming. Still cheaper than an Elite v2 and way more innovative.

    Awesome video, I've watched like a dozen of them now! I made the eSports team for my college and have been looking for a new controller (an upgrade from my 1-month-lifeapan Xbox one controller). So in your opinion, for a game like rocket league (and I'm around the top 1% so it's fairly high level) would you recommend this controller or the Razer ultimate? Or even the king Kong one? I just hate stick drift and in rocket league I almost instantly notice when it's even a little off

    • @vCuda
      @vCuda  Рік тому +1

      If paddles aren't required for you, then the king Kong Pro 2 is going to be the best option. If they are, I'd give the eswap a try over the Wolverine. The Wolverine is absolutely spectacular, but for genuine professional gameplay the eswap thumbsticks would work better. They're more accurate, and can be changed if needed. However if the sticks Drift consistently after a short period of time, I'd advise trying something else. After 2 or 3 Stick replacements it really isn't that financially feasible imo

    Thank you for these reviews. It's exceedingly hard to find controller reviews that amount to more than an unboxing and hands on. Most reviews open it, spin it around in their hands and click buttons while sloooowly telling you about every single button that you already know it has for 10 minutes. Then they spend/waste another 10 minutes explaining that the app can remap buttons because they think nobody can comprehend what button mapping is without their help. Then they tell you if they find the controller or back button comfortable, and end the review without ever mentioning things like stick accuracy, in game performance or how it compares to alternative options or reliability...which is what I watch reviews for. I don't need some 5'2 manlet to waste my time telling me a Razer or something is junk for completely subjective reasons. Or because they just hold it like idiots who think they need a finger over every button at all times which accounts for 80+% of negative reviews I've seen for the Razers for example.
    Thank fuck for Cuda. Making most of the competition look not just bad, but incompetent.
    Now I just need to decide between the Eswap S and Wolverine chroma v2. Anybody had both and can compare the stick accuracy for me? I'm sure the eswap has an edge but I like the sensitivity clutch on Razer so is it enough of an edge to forego that and extra buttons?

    • @smashwindows8722
      @smashwindows8722 Рік тому

      I havent used the wolverine but i have used the elite series 2, eswap X and S an i gotta say the X had the best accuracy for me if the wolverine is anything like the elite in terms of stick movement i would definitely shoot for the eswap even though it gets stick drift quite often it is far better than the elite

    Hey Cuda, in your opinion, is it always better to adjustment thumb-stick deadzones in the software, while leaving in game deadzones at zero? Would love to hear your opinion!
    Sadly I’ve been using this controller for a little over a month, and I have to adjust the deadzones to 5% to avoid stick drift already. Severely disappointing that the thumb sticks aren’t at least more durable. If you plan on getting this controller, just know you’re going to be spending a lot in extra thumbsticks if you want to maintain perfect accuracy.

      I also need 4. I've narrowed it down to the victrix gambit and razer v2 chroma. Apparently the gambit has high deadzones out of box that you can't change. But I can't see myself getting used to the back buttons in the middle on the v2 chroma.

    Got both controllers both are good the x is my preferred one , there is a gap between the trigger and the bumper on both sides, on the E this gap is a lot smaller and this makes it harder to hit the bumper this is an issue for me because I use bumper jumper in FPS however I think this is only going to be noticeable if you use the X a lot like I do.
