@THTB I’ve recently bought Xbox Series and now I’m looking for a pad. Very interested in OCTA. How’s durability so far?

Idk how you guys play on these contraptions.

I can't do a 6-button layout, but the previous Hori Fighting Commander for Xbox One allowed you to remap the face buttons, bumpers, and triggers from the pad itself, which worked wonders.

These days though, I just got used to the standard Xbox One Controller. I drop stuff a bit more with that D-Pad, but it's become negligible enough.

What’s funny is Dizz used a Mad Catz fight pad that’s similar to this for years.

I had 2 OCTAs. The first had the right trigger break on me after 1 month. The second's d-pad broke after 2 weeks. Would not recommend at all.

anyone tried the razer chroma v2? apparently it has a mechanical dpad like the raion, but I'm not sure if they fixed the pivot

It seems to be like the Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 pads.
