Positive impressions start at the stage of unpacking the Xbox Elite. Pad was placed in an elegant black box, inside of which – apart from the controller – conceals a black carrying case, two batteries, additional knobs and classic cross (if a new, 16-way blade, which a few sentences further, someone did not answer) USB cable. By this means you do not have to fear that the controller for something to happen, when you will take it with them to the tournament, the journey is on gameplay with a buddy.
Continued positive feelings after taking falls in his hands. The new controller is made of material much better, which is not only seen, but also the feel. Used in its production more rubber, so holding is safer and more enjoyable. Pad is heavier than the standard version, which still improves comfort. Xbox Elite also looks much more elegant, and include By making it part of the elements in the color of silver. Really nice to look at him as soon lying on the shelf, waiting patiently until we reach again for him. And then it gets even nicer.
The most beautiful things in the middle
However pack , appearance and materials from which it was made, in the case of the Xbox Elite only the tip of the iceberg. Everything that Microsoft has prepared the best, we begin to discover after you’ve connected the controller with the console. Then it turns out that a true monster of the pads, whose capabilities surpass anything seen to date.
The most I liked the Xbox Elite number of options in terms of its configuration, hiding in the Xbox Accessories application. From now on, the buttons can be freely mapped, and for that Microsoft has made beneath four feet, which can either be used interchangeably with standard buttons, or hide under them additional features (and if someone they tease, they can be easily unplugged.)
Designers let Xbox Elite We also adjust the sensitivity of the rods. Now we can decide for themselves how quickly your character in the game has to move or look around. This is extremely useful, particularly in those productions, which is at a fraction of a second. You can also decide about it, at which point triggers to send a signal to the console – whether we prefer to make the game react only after they are brushed or only after a firm push.
This is not the end of attractions. Xbox Elite has up to four motors that generate vibrations – two of them placed there, where we keep raining, and two under triggers. And that’s how they work, also we can adjust. If you like, when the pad responds to our actions vibration, you can definitely strengthened. And if you do not like this form of interaction with the user, you can limit it to any level between zero and the maximum.
What is important, every created configuration can be saved and assigned to a different profile. In the application, the Xbox Accessories such profiles can store any number, while two of them can be sent to the controller and change using a small switch on the front. Great stuff if: a) use of falls two people, b) play simultaneously in two games that require quite different configuration. It is worth mentioning that Microsoft has prepared a ready-made profiles for the most important game of his stable such as Gears of War and Forza Motorsport.
The end of the spider
I mentioned earlier about that designers have replaced the classic Xbox Elite, 4-way cross-brace until the 16-directional shield that not only excels in games uncontrolled knobs, but also looks great. But if you prefer the classic solution it is easy – it is waiting for you underneath.
While the 16-directional shield useful during the game in such titles as Mortal Kombat, so much in any type of shooters appreciate on the back of falling switches, allowing adjust the pitch outlets. It can now definitely shorten, increasing further our advantage over your opponents. I really feel for users of standard pads who will have to face in the FPS-edged holders of the Xbox Elite.
Xbox Elite also has what you missed Pad from both the Xbox 360 and its successor, included with the Xbox One. As for the mini-jack input that allows direct connection to his headphones. We no longer need this special extra. It’s multiplayer will be another argument in favor of this, to replace the standard pad on his much improved version.
In summary, the advantages of the Xbox Elite list is really long. High quality, sleek design, great grip, extensive configuration options, the option to store an infinite number of profiles (and sending two of them to the controller), 16-directional wheel, feet on the back, four motors responsible for vibration – all this makes the new gem Microsoft’s controller practically perfect. Well, not counting the fact that the pad to play on a PC requires a cable connection and that the material from which the new knobs, quite quickly gets dirty and is easy to clean. It’s probably all I can complain about.
Some will also question the price of the Xbox Elite. Yes, the pad is expensive. Even very much. Less than 600 US Dollars for the controller is a really substantial amount. Just what is the controller! If you intend to play on Xbox One over the next few years and completed in that time several dozen (or more) games, then you should definitely consider buying an Xbox Elite. Regardless of the price.
