Respawn helping Microsoft to ‘fix’ Xbox One pad’s ‘overly twitchy’ controls

Titantfall developer Respawn has convinced Microsoft to patch in some changes to the Xbox One’s controller.

The console’s February patch will, amongst other things, alter some of the joypad’s settings.

"It’s just fixing the controller input, really," Titanfall design lead Justin Hendry told The Verge. "It wasn’t really where we felt it should be; it was a little overly twitchy with the current controls. Now it’s fixed. We’re happy with it."

Specifically, the changes "increase the sensitivity of the outer boundaries of the thumbsticks on the Xbox One controller".
