I have zero faith on Xbox controllers, because no matter what paint is on the outside, I find that the LS (maybe I am overusing it when I play hockey and Fifa) is the first part that breaks for me. Hearing that people pay a fortune for the Elite and still are having issues is not what I would call 'Elite'.
I'm not sure it's an advantage for everyone. It seems to suit my swing better for full shots with the tension engaged, but I lose touch on pitches, chips, and putts with it engaged. Also, I'm able to regulate my swing path better with the stick that came with XBox One X better than any of my other three XBox One stock controllers, even with the tension normal. I can't therefore attribute my higher accuracy purely with the higher tension because of this.
My Elite controller has taken a lot of abnormal abuse. I had it pulled out of my hands by the USB cord early on when the cord got tangled up in my legs. I was using it to play on the PC and when I stood up, my leg caused the slack to go out of the cord and the controller hit the floor hard... that's when my right bumper broke. My grandson has since lost the battery compartment cover and one of the normal length thumbsticks. They're magnetically attached and he loves pulling them off and on. I have the normal stick for the left stick (swing stick) and a tall stick for the right. The battery compartment cover is now some black duct tape.
I ordered two new bumpers for my Elite controller, and the Torx driver needed to take the controller apart for $12 on Tuesday. They're supposed to be here tomorrow. I'll have a fully functional Elite controller once I replace the broken operator on the right one. I read that this is a common problem with the Elite controller, and it comes mostly from people dropping the controller.
Enjoy your TGC2 and race games, good luck on your TV.
Thanks, it's already surpassed my expectations. I just downloaded Project CARS 2 demo, which is X enhanced. I'm anxious to compare it to Project CARS 1, which played beautifully for me last night. I got some NBA 2K 18 waiting in the wings after that.
