The jury is still out on whether domed thumbsticks are actually better. Some people swear by them, while others find them uncomfortable. Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference. Some people find that domed thumbsticks provide more grip and control, while others find them uncomfortable and prefer concave thumbsticks.
KontrolFreek is a gaming accessory company that makes products designed to improve the gaming experience. Their products include things like controllers, grips, and thumbsticks.

They feel that the products give them a competitive edge and help them perform better. Others find that the products don’t make a big enough difference to justify the cost.

There is no right answer to this question as it depends on personal preference. Some gamers find that thumbstick grips improve their gameplay, while others find them unnecessary. Ultimately, it is up to the individual to decide whether or not they think thumbstick grips are worth the investment.

Since I was using the alpha control freak, these seemed really strange at first, but I actually enjoy them. The alpha's grip is slightly wider and improved overall, although the deep concave made them uncomfortable after a time. primarily because playing Black Ops 3 multiplayer/zombies for hours on end can cause my thumb to wrinkle. Therefore, I completely removed the left thumb stick kontrol freak. Then, after reading about the differences between the various sizes in height on the Kontrol Freaks website, I made the decision to experience a high-rise inferno. They look fantastic, are quite comfortable, and are more convex than concave. When it comes to claiming they improve your game, it's debatable (i.e., flatter on top). My k/d on Black Ops multiplayer at 9 sensitivity for the weekly leaderboard utilizing the alpha was approximately 3.00. Now it's about the same with the inferno. I am currently playing on 13 comfortably (after spending two hours in custom games playing veteran bots to acclimatize). Making those short snap shots is simpler once you have them in your muscle memory and are accustomed to throwing less. I will admit that after playing in multiplayer for approximately 3 hours, I lost focus and began going 22/2, 35/5, 39/8, etc. I gave this design four stars because I would have preferred it if the left thumb stick had a low rise. It is worthwhile for those looking to test the high-rise for more sensitivity. You'll be dialing it in for the first five games or so, be warned.

Therefore, this is my second set of KontrolFreeks. The FPS Vortex for PlayStation 4 was the first set. Because I wanted to run a low rise on the left stick, I ultimately purchased these for the Xbox. It stinks that I can only get half my money's worth because the Vortex High rise was a game changer for me. I wish the Vortex was also available in low rise left sticks. Anyway, after connecting them to my Xbox, I grabbed my controller to test it out, but right away I didn't feel it. I think it was because I had grown accustomed to the Vortex design that the indentation pattern on the upper rise confused me a little. After playing Battlefield 1 for a while, I began to enjoy the way it felt. With these, I might be even more precise than with the Vortex. There was also enough gripe for me. I feel the need to reiterate how KontrolFreeks won't turn you into an fps monster over night. If you were garbage before using them, you will continue to be garbage after wearing them. If you have never used extended thumbsticks before, it will take some getting used to.

To be honest, I was rather skeptical before making the original purchase. They promise to boost game play and accuracy for the majority of shooter games (such as Fortnite and COD). I'm not sure how much of that assertion I personally believe. I've been using them for a while, but I don't think having them has helped my accuracy. On that one, I believe there is a slight sugar pill impact. The additional assertions made by the company are where the Kongrol Freeks are 100% deserving of every penny. My thumbs frequently come off the joysticks since I have a problem with sweaty thumbs and pressing quite firmly on the sticks. Therefore, in order to have greater control, I continually have to withdraw and reposition my thumbs. I specifically purchased this set of KFs because of the grip design. They haven't let us down. They precisely maintain the center of my thumbs. In that sense, it's almost like a dream come true. Readjusting mid-fight in a game and running the risk of death was always a nightmare. Since acquiring this particular set of KFs, I've only had to do that a few times at most. Hand weariness is another major game-changer for me. After hours of gameplay, I can play for much longer, and/or my hands don't feel tired or tight. It is such a welcome change of pace, or at least to the same degree as before. I just thought I'd toss in about the height difference between sticks and how it feels when playing for anyone who might be interested as I was. If they are on the grip design you want like here, should you get short, tall, or even care if they are different heights like these? For a few days, it seemed a little odd, but eventually it completely disappeared. I neglect the fact that my vary in height. At this point, they simply feel like a natural extension of the controller, and trapping any other controller feels weird. It happens so quickly, don't even worry about it. If you're not particularly sensitive to minute changes, it shouldn't affect you much.

When the sensitivity setting on first-person shooter games is turned up, these sticks work fantastically for achieving accuracy and fine movement.I frequently play FPS games on the XB1, including Battlefield 4 (Platoon: Bags Deep), and I think that this stick mod is the ideal length for enhancing aim accuracy in high sensitivity stick settings while still enabling quick turn-arounds. The sticks are quite gripping, and in the few months I've been using them, I've never slipped. I largely blame myself for the one occasion a stick came loose from the controller when I was gaming since I was in a fierce firefight and may have been too aggressive. I no longer use the left stick and now solely use the right stick for more accurate aim and looking.These sticks do require some getting accustomed to, but after a few nights they become almost instinctual. Accidental stick hits, where your thumb inadvertently catches the stick, are something you do need to watch out for. However, I only experience this when I am not paying attention or am on the tired side, so it's not a big deal just something to keep in mind since it can definitely have unintended consequences.Enjoy yourself and happy gaming.

I'm a 38-year-old gamer who enjoys playing first-person shooter games on my XBOX with my loved ones. Call of Duty is my primary game; at the moment, I'm playing COD WW2.I've recently made the decision to begin exploring for different strategies to improve my gaming. I've read articles on KontrolFreeks before, but I never really bought into the marketing. I bought these with the idea that they might not do anything for my game, but if they make me more comfortable, I'll be thrilled.Even though I don't have very large fingers, the Xbox thumbsticks eventually get to me. They could really improve my games if they did, too.I turned on the KontrolFreeks and started to perform. The boost in comfort was instantly noticeable, which I thought was great.What followed was a really welcome surprise. I first didn't notice a much of a difference in how I played the game because I had a respectable 1.35 KDR on Hardcore Modes considering my age and quantity of playtime. I did observe that there seemed to be more exact control. With that in mind, I started to increase the sensitivity of my controls. I rarely exceed standards by more than one. Any higher and my aim starts to swing wildly. Depending on my play style, I may play with my sensitivity set to MAX when using the Kontrol freeks, which has undoubtedly helped me obtain kills where I wouldn't have otherwise and escape difficult situations.They don't need to move about as much to leave the control "dead zone," therefore I assume that you can still maintain control even with the sensitivity turned up.I absolutely like being able to set my control sensitivity to the maximum while playing these. They didn't make me a professional gamer or make me 2x as good as I was before, but they did the things I listed above.

adore these They were suggested to me by a buddy, so I decided to give them a shot. I can no longer play without them! I tried playing without them, but it just made the game play less enjoyable.

If you play a lot of games and want a better gaming experience for a reasonable price, I highly recommend.

I was considering buying an XBONE Elite Controller so I could use the taller sticks. I wanted something that would at least offer me a better feel and greater control because I have never been a very good twitch shooter with a controller. Initially, I was wary about stick extensions because of the distance I would have to travel to reach my controller's face buttons. But the price difference persuaded me to give the Vortex extensions from Kontrol Freek a try.I'm delighted to say that these cute little things have surpassed my expectations. First of all, the construction is excellent; the sticks have a good amount of gripping and suppleness. Second, it only took a few games for them to truly become used to increasing stick sensitivity and adapting accordingly (also, clicking of the L and R sticks still remains surprisingly easy). Actual gameplay enhancement came in last on the list. Wow. After some "oversteer," I was able to get everything just right. I was particularly impressed and grateful for the stick's capacity to be adjusted or leaned precisely. This became really clear while playing Battlefield 1. The LMGs are as squirrely as heck, as anyone who has played this treasure will attest. I was able to regulate the rise of the LMGs (the Lewis Gun in particular) during sustained fire with the amount of fine delicacy I could apply to the stick.This particular product is one that I heartily endorse. I am eager to test out further Kontrol Freek products and purchase a few more boxes of Vortex extensions. I don't want to play without them because they have become a favorite.

Okay, here are my thoughts after playing with these for a day:Amazing packaging. Small, effective packaging helps the environment. It was thrown into another order because it was so small, and I almost missed it. Well done on it.Awesome fit and finish. Excellent fit, and they don't come off. Even my controller, which is very well fitted and presumably have been numerous cycles of testing, has a problem with worn headgear. It is evident.Weight is a con because it turns out the cloth is more heavier than I had anticipated. The heavy finger movement on this is a pro. This is also a drawback because they tend to move with more momentum after turning due of their weight. For me, this is a mixed bag because hefty is better padded and more tolerant of the force of my thumbs.These are easily a 5 star product if you can live with the mass, momentum, and moment of inertia.

I enjoy playing various consoles from various eras, or essentially retro gaming. One of my systems that I occasionally play is my original Xbox. My s-model controller's joysticks started to deteriorate and lose their initial surface grip after a while of use. I purchased these and they fit my controller flawlessly; I no longer have to worry about my controller sticks wearing out completely. Additionally, the similar coverings' grip is excellent, and I have the impression that I won't slip off my controller stick while intense gaming any longer. Therefore, they are the ones you require if you need good grip covers for your PS2, 3, 4, Xbox One, or Xbox 360.
No, PS4 thumb grips will not work on Xbox One controllers. The thumb grips are designed to fit snugly onto the PS4 controller's analog sticks, and they will not fit onto the Xbox One controller's analog sticks.
There's no denying that thumbsticks play a vital role in first-person shooters and other types of games. But do taller thumbsticks really help? The answer is a resounding yes! Taller thumbsticks offer a number of advantages. For one, they provide more leverage, which can be helpful in aiming. They also offer more surface area to grip, making them more comfortable to use for extended periods of time. In addition, taller thumbsticks tend to be more durable than their shorter counterparts. This is because they're less likely to suffer from wear
There is no definitive answer to this question as it depends on the individual. Some people find that thumb grips help them to aim more accurately, while others find that they make no difference or even hinder their aim. Ultimately, it is up to the individual to experiment with different grip styles and see what works best for them.
There isn't a clear answer, as some people find that thumb grips help them with their gaming, while others don't notice much of a difference. Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference and what feels most comfortable for you. If you're struggling with your aim or grip on the controller, then it might be worth trying out some thumb grips to see if they help.
No, SCUF controllers do not have anti recoil.
If your drift is sticking, there are a few things you can do to try and fix the issue. First, check to see if the issue is with your tires. If they are bald or have very little tread, they may be causing your drift to stick. You can also try inflating your tires to a higher pressure, which may help to give you more traction. If neither of these solutions work, you may need to adjust your driving style. Try driving slower and easing into your drift rather than going full throttle from the start. With a little practice, you should be able
