Is DUST beating the hell out of your PS3 controllers too? Im on my second one in just a couple of months, the left one actually wears out from Sprinting and digs into the plastic frame edge around the hole making a groove in the stick that gets all hard to use and grindy feeling.
I'm not buying another controller just to play a broke ass game (it is face it, we play more for what it could be then what it is) , I'll try some silicone grease maybe that will help?.

Still have the one I used during beta. I take really good care of my controllers and systems these days, so there's the chance my controller will outlive my actual system.

I do too, Im the only user on my system and DUST is the only game I play on it, I own my home, and am an EVE player, The controllers sit in a nice dust free closed cabinet along with the PS3 when not in use.
Maybe I just mash too hard to run?...

I had one that would just ho nuts, popping me to the overview map, random crouching, reloading when I needed to shoot... I thought it was the game. I was on the verge of quitting. Then, I found a video on YouTube about the padding under the analogs getting ****** up. Fixed it. Good as new. $60 stayed in my pocket.

I have a bunch of crap falling in line on EVE before I slip back into it. I've always feather-fingered my buttons, so that may be why the controller is still good. I get accused of using a modded controller from time to time when using single shot or burst weapons, but it's not my fault that I don't smash my buttons all the way down, which slows down rate of fire greatly. I just use the standard controller that came with my system. Thing's four years old (if I remember correctly).

I bet thats why, I have extremely strong hands (not bragging I just do, I was a brickmason, logger and over the road trucker most of my life even body builder friends have me turn the screw to fasten their plates for workouts because even though their arms are bigger my hands can easy crush stuff) I bet thats the reason I get excited and apply too much pressure.
Never had the problem with XBOX 360 controllers, in fact I like the XBOX controller much much better.

I got groves in both joysticks on my old controller and its so bad they get stuck when I push them forward. This has cost me countless deaths from falling off roofs into a swarm of red dots and messing with my aim going for headshots. Now i think my new controller's L3 button is a little beat up and gives me trouble trying to run. The only problem is its hard to tell when its my controller screwin up or when its the game Lol

I have this exact same problem. The plastic has a tiny ring that has been carved out over time lol. Now it's really grindy as well... what a coincidence...
But this is the manufacturer's fault, not DUST...

I am using the one I got with my PS3 3 years ago. Still fully functional, though has a slight problem with the left analong stick where it would sometimes get stuck in one direction. It's rare so it isn't much of a problem. Didn't get me killed yet.

What are you guys doing in game that breaks controllers?! Be gentle with them, smashing buttuns doesn't make you run or shoot faster...
Still have mine from 5 years ago. My dog chewed the rubber parts off the analog sticks when he was a puppy, so I replaced them with ones from my old PS2 Controllers. It still works fine, its a bit uncomfortable because the rubber bits don't fit as tightly as I would like them to, but I can live with it.

I just went out to the garage and grabbed a little tube of silicon grease I had in there, and used a q-tip to put some in that ring, man it works *better then new* Ill try to find the manufacturer of the tube of grease and link it.

Think about it though, in this game you have to stay constantly in motion or you're dead as soon as you stop. That causes alot of wear.

I could do the same, but i don't, its called being gentle with the things you buy because you worked hard for that money, goddamnit.

same 2 controllers since 2008, but have made some small fixes to them...
the rubberish mushroom caps came off, not the hard plastic part, just the coverings...
so trimmed them up and crazy glued them back on...
it happened to 1 first and worked soooo well after that I did it to the other on purpose....
I also took a few pair of rubber palmed work gloves and fitted/cut them to fit on the back side of them...no sweaty palm slip ups anymore....
how the hell are some of you isk poor...??...free isk is everywhere.....

Funny this topic should come up, recently ordered these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/380682258719?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649 for the same problem, hopefully should stop the stick wearing out. Already got rubber thumbcaps for extra grip I can add to them. |

THIS!
I have adult sized hands, not some child's tiny things. That's why I use keyboard and mouse. They come in adult sizes. Why are there no adult sized controllers?
