Still no console controller deadzones options?! Is IW even aware of the huge amount of customers suffering from stick drift with otherwise perfectly fine – often new – controllers?

Just a small selection of posts on the matter with no acknowledgement at all.

The sensitivity before the analog sticks activate is too fine for the tolerances on many controllers even brand new elites.

We need an option to increase the ‘deadzones’ of controller analog sticks. The amount of movement needed before the game registers a movement. Many games implement this with a slider.

This is not a tactical advantage nor a controversial change. I’m sure you’d sell more battle passes if people were spending less on unnecessary replacement controllers!

Sorry for tagging but we would all really appreciate some kind of response on this to know that’s it’s something you’re aware of.

Edit: Hoorah, thank you for the response u/ashtonisvulcan_IW. Hopefully it is a working solution for the various types of persistent drifting. A deadzone slider would be ideal but maybe you can have some kind of automatic detection working instead. Either way, optimistically looking forward to not having to counteract drift (after buying 2 separate new controllers to try and fix!).
