The DS stick drift issues has been fixed long ago in the second iteration or third one I think

I've had two of the newest models start drifting. It's not fixed until they change their stick modules completely.

 

[Skifi28]

Wow, Microsoft lost the Surgeon market in controllers. Times are rough indeed.

 

[ManaByte]

Yes it is

Tell that to the black DualSense I bought that got stick drift in less than six months.

 

[Vick]

Dude, they're using the dogshit Dualsense controllers with guaranteed stick drift.

They have to know they're prone to sever stick drift right?

Stick drift is caused by dirt, I know after personally fixing more than 5 DualSense of friends and parents at this point.

Pretty hard for me to associate dust, hair, food residues, ash and tobacco fragments with a surgeon on duty.

 

[Majormaxxx]

and if u bump into walls, the haptic feedback activates

 

[Audiophile]

"Oops, sorry...had some stick drift and perforated your stomach."

 

[SweetTooth]

and if u bump into walls, the haptic feedback activates

That would be really amazing tbh

 

[RoboFu]

Too bad the portal is local play only .. could have saved more lives Sony!

That's fair,but it's still weird to me to use that one specifically when there are better alternatives. Hell the Dualshock 4 is so much better in my opinion and I never had an issue with stick drift on that one.

Even if dirt or dust are the issues on the Dualsense it still doesn't explain why it's only the Dualsense I have stick drift issues with though,for example my Dualshock 2 controller from 20 years ago works flawlessly still and I would reckon that gathered more dust in 20 years than a Dualsense in a measly 4 years(3 actually as I got my PS5 in 2021).

Make sure to get some Kontrol Freeks thumb sticks for greater accuracy.

 

[BlackTron]

When I go for an endoscopy, I bring a Dreamcast controller with hall sticks just in case.

I don't wanna be a statistic.

 

[Sharius]

sony idea for new PS+ tier, PS+ ultimate, with extra 100 bucks per month you can get operate at home with share play on PS6 pro

 

[ResilientBanana]

yeesh, pray your latency is amazing and you don't experience rubberbanding.

 

[ReyBrujo]

Home working for surgeons, not just for IT. Now they can operate people while in the bath and if they mess up they can just disconnect, cool.

 

[willothedog]

Nah, they still have Kinect in CT scanners to fall back on.

 

[Gaelyon]

X : light scapel cut
O : compress
R1 + X : heavy scapel cut
L1 + O : Stitch
Square (quick press) : pad wound
R2+L2 : defibrillator

 

[PatientGamer]

Stick drift will result in a lawsuit against Sony. Wouldn't risk it for this sort of operation tbh.

 

[onQ123]

Too bad the portal is local play only .. could have saved more lives Sony!

But it's not local play only what are you talking about?

 

[K' Dash]

I'm glad the controller is connected by cable, cause otherwise the surgery would have to be 10 min long.

 

[Shin-Ra]

Real-life Wormy Passage.

 

[Deerock71]

Imagine it starts drifting out of nowhere? Lmao.

 

[GymWolf]

I guess they can't use the ps5 pro controller for a colonoscopy because everyone clench their asses when they hear the price...

 

[Dirk Benedict]

Can't wait till we get the self guiding medical instruments.

 

[Icymanipulator]

Now do it with a guitar hero controller

Blind folded

 

[Robot Carnival]

let me know when they use a Taiko: Drum Master machine to operate with.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

We need a new game by the way. Bring back endoscopist Tomoe Tachibana!

I HAVE TO PLAY THIS GAMES

 

[Judge Magister]

I HAVE TO PLAY THIS GAMES

To be honest i never played them for the medical procedures gameplay itself, it is a bit stressful. Also Wii Remote is not perfect.
It was more because art / cutscenes / soundtrack are cool. And i like the diagnosis / forensic / story part.

 

[Tams]

Was expecting a Duelsense controller but it looks like he's using an old PS3 "navigation" nunchuck style controller.

I used to use that paired with a MadCatz M.M.O. 7 to play Warframe.

 

[SportsFan581]

Yikes. I'm a bit concerned about something as cheaply built being used (that goes for all of the current console controllers). Stick drift could lead to bad results.

 

[atyourservice]

Having an intuitive form factor with standardized inputs designed for manipulating objects in 3d space is really cool if you think about it.
Cool contribution to human advancement from consoles

Hopefully it was custom-built or at least modified for extra reliability. I wouldn't trust a stock controller

 

[RoboCain]

Hope your surgery doesn't last more than 2 hours

 

[KormaChameleon]

Would have got better accuracy if they used a mouse.

 

[Frwrd]

You sure that's not just you in disguise?

 

[Dirk Benedict]

 

[Ashamam]

You joke but this is 100% gonna happen with the dogshit controllers Sony makes

You can 100% guarantee it won't. You think they will put more than a few hundred hours on each controller before replacing with a new unit? Drift is 100% wear, no wear no drift.

 

[lmimmfn]

Pfft if they wanted accuracy they should be using kb & mouse.

It's a puff piece.

 

[mitch1971]

Did they get the plat trophy?

 

[Pimpbaa]

Should be using a controller with Hall effect sticks (instead of the cheap potentiometers they use in default controllers for consoles). Wouldn’t want to get stick drift in the middle of an operation.

 

[Hoddi]

Wow, Microsoft lost the Surgeon market in controllers. Times are rough indeed.

Basic risk management. Some surgeons grew up on Nintendo.

'Press A to make incision or B to cancel'

 

[Mistake]

Reminds me of the melee player that's a surgeon

I read that as magnetic levitation device and wondered why they going for hard mode by floating the pig.
