I ordered an older model for a friends birthday. He is a very pro player of Fifa and Rocket Leauge (among the top ranked players in Europe in both games), so he takes this stuff seriously. He plays on a PC and I ordered the Dual Shock 4 type scuff controller. It cost a fortune. The whole expereince was pretty terrible.
I paid something like 100$ extra for super fast shipping that was suppose to guarantee it came here in a week, we waited something like 6-8 weeks for it, support was not responding to tickets or answering what was going on.
I wanted to test the controller and I was immediately dissapointed. The quality didn't match up with the price, parts we're squeaky and loose and i I think most of it is 3D printed and you can really notice.
Still I packed it up and gave it to my friend without saying a word, the first thing he did was fire up the deadzone tests and realized they have a huge problem with drift and he wouldn't be able to use them on the level he uses them.
I returned it and exchanged for an Xbox Elite 2. The feeling when that came was amazing. That one is expensive but it feels premium, you can feel the quality and that it's built to last.
So yeah very dissapointed in Scuf. I'd go as far as to say they are a scam and wouldn't recommend them to anyone. Xbox Elite 2 is amazing (I heard the first one had QC issues though), and I wish Sony just did a 1st party pro controller.
