What about scufs?

For a long time I have been considering purchasing a scuf, the biggest reason is because the default controllers that play stations come with are not the greatest quality. Don't get me wrong they last a while but at the moment I play with no rubber on the left thumb stick and the right trigger somewhat broken. The reason I have not purchased one however is due to how the community sees them, I've heard many say that they are cheating almost like using a mouse and keyboard(which I do not see as cheating but some do). I also respect people that have a lot of skill but don't use a scuf, one example would be RealKraftyy (please don't try and fight with me on this, it is simply not what this post is about) , so I just want to know what the community thinks and if I could get any suggestions, thanks. EDIT:If I already play "jumper", I would have to reconfigure the paddles, or switch back to default correct? (Also a big decision, because I love my jumper)

  • I don't think people think scuf controllers are really cheating anymore. Especially now that Xbox has their licensed controller with the paddles and trigger stops. Controllers modded for rapid fire or things like that are another story. Scuf can be expensive though. I got one a while ago and it's nice but after probably six months the charging port on mine is now screwy and I have to hold the cable just right for it to take a charge. I'd recommend looking into kontrol freeks for your thumb stick problem. The slightly longer sticks can be a benefit and they are easily replaceable if the rubber ever does wear off them. U can get short ones if u don't want extra length. I even used them on my scuf controller. They are more easily replaced than having other sticks installed and are interchangeable to different lengths.

    I'm waiting for mines to come in the mail. I couldn't find a Xbox elite controller at a decent price seeing as they are out of stock everywhere. The bids on them on EBay is crazy. I'm not sure what to expect, I mainly brought one for the button remapping. Hopefully I see some improvement because God help me I need it. EDIT I didn't know people considered them cheating. This is a first. I asked around on #Gaming about them and no one seemed to think using one was cheating.

  • Why do you care what other people think? If you want to use one, there is no way anybody online will know unless you tell them. If you go to some sort of in person competition, then maybe it could be an "issue", but I'm sure most people don't care what controller you're using either way.

    • Well, scufs are allowed in gaming competitions because they don't improve anything other than how you press your buttons. If you want your aim, jump and duck to be better than go ahead. I use one.

    • I'm considering it myself. I need a new controller (used it for like 4 years now so it's got it's work done) and thought why not just upgrade?
