Sprinting on controller has a serious issue.

Bungie has implemented a function where clicking the sprint button while already sprinting now cancels the sprint. Whether or not this is a glitch or on purpose is beyond me. If I were to double click my sprint button while moving, it would result in walking. Clicking the button an odd number of times results in sprinting, but nobody wants to count how many times they click their sprint button (if you do, then my apologies, I didn't know people like you existed). When I find myself spamming the sprint button in tense situations in both PvE and PvP, my movement is scuffed. I don't want to have to think carefully about my button inputs - I want to think carefully about my gameplay, but now I am often distracted my my sprint button. Previously, sprinting would persist no matter how many times you spammed the sprint button, which is usually how it works in many games, such as COD or Apex Legends, etc. I am both surprised and confused as to why Bungie has decided to change that. It simply seems clunky and unnecessary. Currently, I have found no solution to this issue in the new button mapping options that Bungie has supplied to us. Please upvote this if you agree so that this can reach the eyes and ears of the developers of Bungie.

  • Works fine for me. Your controller must be dodgy. Time for a new one perhaps 👍

  • Hi all, I posted this about 8 hours ago, and have been trying with much better success than mashing the left thumb stick. Sorry for the spam but I felt it was needed here. "MY THUMBS ARE SAVED!!! For Default Settings Players on XBox One :-)" Hello all, just sharing what I've done re : sprint and controller on Xbox settings. Everything else is UNCHANGED except for the following: Under Button Layout : HOLD ZOOM > LEFT TRIGGER > PRESS TOGGLE ZOOM > X=Unbind (OR VICE VERSA!) . . . HOLD SPRINT > LEFT TRIGGER > PRESS TOGGLE SPRINT > X=Unbind A different play style for ADS to get used to but it's recalling how I used the Masterchief in Halo (only no running).....and that's my Avatar!! Why the heck didn't I think to do this sooner guys? Anyway,I hope this helps as I am going to get some practice in the EDZ doing patrols. I hope the stuttering movement stops... EDIT: Currently playing with the zoom - toggle zoom function to see if I can emulate the Spartan's Magnum ADS mechanics

      • Only question is why are you spamming the sprint button? Click once to sprint and never click it again during your sprint.

        • I didn’t realize majority of controller destiny players smashed their thumbsticks like this Lmao. I wonder how many controllers y’all go through.

          • I tried playing how you guys play, spamming the sprint button(left thumbstick, xbox) and my hand started cramping. Why do you guys do that, and how have you not developed carpal tunnel?

          • I most definitely understand why it’s a problem for people, but I do quite like being able to keep moving while exiting sprint.

          • After seeing constant post about this I’ve come to the conclusion its a shotgun scrubs issue and not really the controller itself. It seems you shotgun scrubs tend to spam the sprint button for some weird reason, I also play with a controller and I have no issues. Even when I rarely bother with a shotgun myself I have no problems, I don’t understand why you guys spam the sprint, its not like you are running any faster anyways. You tap it once and you know you are running, you can just let go of the stick to stop sprinting, its really not that hard.

            • The same for me. I tried to play some PvP and it is now unplayable. If they don't fix ASAP, I will delete destiny
