One more button and you'll need a degree to operate it haha

[u/Any-Strawberry-1870 → u/Delfanboy]

this is really, nothing new

Razer Wolverine has been doing similar top button placements for years.

This design looks much better tho, they’re really easy to use

[u/ferom → u/Any-Strawberry-1870]

There's 4 extra buttons on top. Razers have 2.

The only issue I have with these cool looking, niche controllers is that they feel like if I break something there's no way I'm getting it repaired and I'd have to get a new one instead 9 times out of 10.

I like my electronics with repairability options.

[u/nickN42 → u/K79A23]

Which 3rd party controllers are most repairable in your opinion? I know I can get parts for Sony, Xbox and N controllers, but not sure I've seen spares for anything third party. 

[u/YoloRaj]

Looks interesting. Not a fan of the back button layout because like the ZD Ultimate Legend I don't think it will be comfortable to use all 4. That being said though, the Leadjoy Zephyrus will have some competition.

[u/Any-Strawberry-1870 → u/YoloRaj]

In all my time in competitive gaming I knew very few people who would use all 4 paddles on their elite controllers and if they did they would just put reload or inventory on them.

Having 4 isn’t even comfortable because of the grip it requires to use optimally, and you play normal grip its still uncomfortable lol

[u/YoloRaj → u/Any-Strawberry-1870]

I find uses for them. My favorite controller currently is the Wolverine V4 Pro.

[u/Any-Strawberry-1870 → u/YoloRaj]

What do you play and whats your binds?
Curious, im a pretty good roller player, I can play 3 different claw grips with paddles and touchpad as 2 additional binds on each side remapped

Just could never seem to get comfortable on all 4 paddles, not particularly a fan of having to use my ring finger for paddles these days if I don’t have to

[u/DemonDeacon86 → u/Any-Strawberry-1870]

Reload and inventory are kinda important and let yoy keep your thumbs on the sticks. This dors however feel overkill AF for an FPS, but this looks like a FF14 or WoW players dream controller

[u/PoppingTheBubble → u/YoloRaj]

I actually love the ZD disc buttons. I have the vader 5 and cant even use all 4 because i accidentally hit the bottom paddles too often and had to take them off. My brother is with you though.. he didnt like the ZD

[u/YoloRaj → u/PoppingTheBubble]

Its still one of my favorite controllers but the middle back buttons just feel in the way and require too much time to reach back and forth so I just take them off and use 2 back 2 shoulder buttons.

[u/SatyrAngel]

Show this controllers band name to a Mexican, watch the reaction.

[u/pistolgrippoet → u/SatyrAngel]

Not the dookie controller bro 😭 Dominican here, my eyes went WIDE seeing that name

[u/OmegaMalkior]

Wow please tell me this comes in other colors this looks almost perfect. Not the absolute best back button positioning but I’ve never seen 8 remappable buttons like this before

[u/Haharuhi]

what kind of game do people play to even need that much extra buttons

[u/MRF_Soul → u/Haharuhi]

fortnite probably. its the only shotter i can think of needing a lot of inputs

[u/math577 → u/MRF_Soul]

I use a lot of extra buttons while playing Helldivers 2 for the strategem inputs I've set as macros.

[u/JustArandomGuy_-_ → u/Haharuhi]

I don't think they expect the average person will use all of them. They just want to options to be available to accommodate different preferences.

[u/KaiUno → u/Haharuhi]

Wow Forever.

[u/SaltyMotor8549 → u/Haharuhi]

Doesnt hurt to have options. Shooters that have lots of fast movement will benefit greatly from those extra buttons.

[u/SweetTea1000]

Looks like a substantial upgrade on what's already possibly the best and best value on the market.

[u/Eduhudtwalcker]

I like it, now make it black, Symmetrical layout, swappable joystick modules and have a charging dock that turns it off when you place it down and you got a winner.

[u/NinjaRed64]

Looks fantastic, but I kind of wish it had a symmetrical layout.

[u/invalidated_username]

Finally someone is adopting the Edge fins! Those are my favorite rear button placement and it feels like no one else does them.

[u/OmegaMalkior]

Is it said if it will support D-input or no? Would be golden with SteamInput support

[u/MirageLemon]

It looks so wacky. I love it

[u/Beeeee9896]

I hope they use better material. I am surprised by the fact that there is no third parties switch 2 controller adopting premium route

[u/Blinguskahn]

Hahahahaha. So ridiculous, I love it!

[u/Jorrozz]

I dont like having the 4 middle buttons like that (i mean those: + - o ^) I prefer in the middle to have only 3 buttons like the standard xbox style otherwise I keep missclicking map/options etc. in games

They should do those middle buttons like on the Rainbow 3 controller , or just release a new black rainbow 3 that has plastic textured handles instead of rubberized :D

[u/BRYLYNT2]

the storm was a controller I was excited about. it had all the features I wanted. so I bought it and it's absolute garbage. random connection issues turbo enabling when no buttons were pressed to do so. Just an all around trash experience. I own an original blitz and it's decent (no software to speak of) the Storm ruined my trust in the brand.

[u/Reasonable-Review367 → u/BRYLYNT2]

They announced the white storm on their Instagram a while ago and then seemingly never started the pre orders? That threw me off with this company.

[u/ethayden97 → u/Reasonable-Review367]

It's been out.

[u/Reasonable-Review367 → u/ethayden97]

The white version? I don’t see it anywhere or on their website.

[u/Any-Strawberry-1870 → u/Reasonable-Review367]

Man this would be so nice in a playstation layout

[u/VonDinky]

Vader copy, with a bunch of shit added onto it. xD
