Not worth buying for Xbox one.

Eh, they're more durable the DS4. And the triggers are way more comfortable. I fired up the 360 a little while ago and the skinny triggers started to get to me.
I haven't used a PS4  so I can't comment on how durable they are, but the Xbone pad was creaking and flexing so much that I was afraid that I was going to break it.
Interesting. Me and my friend have the opposite problem. Actually, after just man handling mine, you really must be He-man, because I've got no flex or creaking. What the hell are you doing to your controllers?
As to size, it's not about how long it is, but how big to hold.
I can't help myself.

Just the same as I do with a regular 360 pad, holding it in my left hand, resting it in my right. I don't abuse them or anything, I can use the same pad daily for a couple of years before it starts to ghost walk.

DS4 eats all the other PS pads for me, the 360 pad is still the best MS have had to offer imo

You may not,however, dispute the truths that I've stated.
I think the truth is that you don't really know what you're talking about (well, trolling to be exact).

You mention Xbox one and SIXAXIS controller. That is a gamepad for Playstation 3... on which this game has not been released. More over you can perfectly adjust the sensitivity, deadzone, saturation and linearity of the analog buttons. Which at the end makes it so nothing is on or off, unless you set it up to be that way.

Good luck at your next trolling attempt.
Yet again, another keyboard warrior who is all knowledgable unwilling to allow someone to voice their views. You go in with some smart arse comment and defend the honour of Codies to the bitter end.

Having an opinion, even if it is not 100% accurate does not constitute trolling. You are in fact the troll, who scans for such posts just to assert your perceived superior intellect, whilst sitting there je•%$ing off to pictures of goats, watching Jeremy Kyle re-runs on Dave. 

It's ok, don't get up I'll let myself out.....

No worries Sergey, you paste the imgur link in the little white box with the folded corner above the text box. If that makes sense ;)

Sooo, anyways, the Nes controllers my favorite ever, followed closely by the N64. Japans only proof that they don't design controllers for humans.

And I hate every Xbox controller... I guess something is clearly wrong with me.
Absolutely. Actually, I don't think Nintendo's ever made a controller that wasn't dumb.

I never liked the assymetrical placement of the joysticks. Then again, I'm not a console guy and don't really like controllers as such. Keyboards, mice and wheels all the way :D

Yet I've never liked keyboard for games. I don't like having full inputs for things like movement. It leads to people just smashing the left/right keys in fps games and making the game and hitbox freak out so you can't them.

I think some company made an analog keyboard, but I agree with that point. But, while moving around might be better, you've got to admit, that a mouse is far superior for looking around and aiming

I kind of would like to see a combo of Playstation VR coupled with Playstation Move and that rifle accessory for it. That would be a lot better for aiming and looking around than a mouse most likely as well.

I'd rather get the HTC Vive, but that's just me :D

Mmm, it depends. In BF4 the mouse movement is weird and janky, so you have to really lower the sensitivity and crank up your mouse DPI, which I can now do since I bought a new mouse. But the controller view was always silky buttery smooth. Mouse can also be more jerky and abrupt, which works for some games, but not all. I think FPS are the only games that actually benefit from a mouse.
BTW I stopped by my local computer store and picked up a Logitech G700s, since I wanted to see what all the hubbub about gaming mice was.... and it's super nice. Being able to switch DPI on the fly is actually really useful, and it's a larger form factor that fits my hand better than most other mice. And it's got buttons you make do literally anything on your PC. It's awesome.

It might be due to mouse acceleration. It's best to set it at RAW input whenever a game supports it. I didn't really have any problems in Battlefield and I play with high sensitivity (close to 3000 DPI)

I do have raw input on. I use low in game sensitivity and like 1600 dpi. In any case, in any other FPS my other mouse works fine, it's just a standard wireless mouse, but BF4 was basically a no go as it jumped all over the place.

Yeah, but you don't have Playstation Move or anything remotely similar as a controller on PC (that can be actually used an has results as good as PS Move). That's the only reason I mentioned PSVR.

Umm... wat? What benefits do Move controllers have over the controllers the Vive comes with?

The Vive controllers have really good tracking. I've seen videos where people throw and catch them while wearing the headset (they could only see the virtual representations of those controllers). That's how accurate the sensors are. Any delay, and they would be on the floor

Maybe that's the problem? Wireless mice aren't really suited for FPS. I just recently bought BF4, but had played it before via Origins game time. I didn't have any such problems. Then again, I'm using a wired gaming mouse
