What PS4 FightSticks are you guys using?

Hey hows it going guys. Im sure like me you guys are excited about the release, But at this moment i do not own a fight stick for my PS4. Im coming over from the Street Fighter 4 community and Leaning Towards the Madcatz. Unfortunately they are all sold out. My question is, What Fight Sticks are you guys using? What Brand? From Where? I wont troll myself and try to use a Controller, It never works out..

i suck at stick but its there for anyone who wants to use it at my crib
The way you get good with a stick is practice practice practice, it can take anywhere from a week to a couple months to get good with but no matter what the case you need to practice, I grasped it surprisingly quickly myself, I picked up my fight stick last month and with in 4 days I was already used to it

Sweet, I was thinking of getting the same one. I'll wait and see what your thoughts are.
if it is anything like the hori real arcade pro v5 then it is a really high quality stick, but the buttons are kind of iffy, they are really awkward, they are insanely sensitive but it is hard to tell that you pressed it, you dont really get any feed back, but it is still a really good stick, but if you know how to switch out the buttons, i suggest doing so

The internals are all exactly the same, what buttons would you suggest switching with?

Sanwa are by far the best so go for those, they are responsive, quiet, you know when you press them, and you wont accidentally press any buttons, the hori buttons are rounded at the top and sensotive so i push a lot of buttons on accident

Getting used to a fightstick takes time.. a lot of time
Fightsticks are expensive and also noisy (what could disturb people that are sleeping on your couch :) ). If you have the chance, first try it out before you make the investment.

So I got my hori real arcade pro v4 kai, The joy stick itself is very accurate and responsive. No complaints there except that the actual stick itself is very short and I have big hands, I'm 6' 5" btw. As far as the buttons, they work perfectly well but they are VERY sensitive and you don't exactly know when you have pushed them, there's no click or anything like that but they do work well...just maybe a little too well, so sensitive. Overall its a good stick, I would recommend it.

I use a hori real arcade pro v5, it works on ps4 and ps3
Am I missing something. I just bought one from someone as a backup fightstick, but it isn't working. The turbo light is green, but no buttons work. I have it set to PS4, On, DP, and 5 on the side, and nothing makes it work that i try.

It literally does nothing. I'm trying to stay calm so please help me out here man.
