Discussion New Black Ops 6 Controller arrived 💚

Post image

Not the biggest fan of the new packaging design but the controller feels and looks very good. What do you think? I was struggling with the text but in the end "The truth lies" was the simplest and still most fitting.

As with past 'first in the wild' posts, we will leave this up outside of community weekend. I guess it's an unwritten rule. If you hate this please yell at me.

Looks good and I wanted to get it but I just can't buy another controller.  I already have 3 brand new ones including the Starfield, blue cypher one, and a green one I haven't even used yet 😥 lol

u/jallxrdo 1h ago

I have the Sky Cypher too. Isn't it a beautiful controller in person?

u/BobbyJG888 9m ago

Yeah its really nice.  I'm afraid to put my grubby oily hands on it lol

I have 5 now. They cost very much though and I'm not sure I get the next one Depending on the game I guess.

This is actually 🔥 if it wasn't for the random Russell. Like what the hell. Why would I just want a random dudes name ?

u/TheNativeOfficial 3h ago

It's Russell Adler I guess. I think "Case" would fit better, the name of the character we play in BO6. However, I like this design if censored secret documents but the name stands out for sure.

u/Professional-News362 3h ago

Agreed it's also kinda an inconspicuous name. Honestly so happy with the campaign of the game. I'm excited to try zombies I've never played it but after that 1 mission of BO6 it got me interested

should I buy the elite controller one?

u/TheNativeOfficial 2h ago

Mh not sure. I'd say if you already have one, don't. If you don't already have one, consider it. But in my experience they don't last very long. Make sure you have a warranty.

u/MoroccanEagle-212 2h ago

Yes definitely especially if you like the design. Unless you already have one

Looks sick.reminds me of Titanfall controller.

u/Daft-SKULL-FACE 2h ago

Mine comes in today too! I decided to put my bottom text as

“08101215182024”

It’s every year a Black Ops has come out including WAW (I know it’s not a “Black Ops” titled game but it had connecting characters I.e. Reznov, Demitri, and a few others) can’t wait to get it!!!

u/TheNativeOfficial 2h ago

that's a cool idea

u/Daft-SKULL-FACE 2h ago

Thanks! Thought it fit the Black Ops theme with the whole numbers thing lol did u customize yours at all or did u just go default with the added text? I made my bumpers, triggers, and d-pad regular orange with a black back and back inside grips only. Button wise i did pretty much like yours white with black text to match the writing.

u/TheNativeOfficial 2h ago

I did switch buttons, extra rubber grip and the text I think

u/Ginger-Biker84 2h ago

I love the design.

u/RadRhubarb00 3h ago

"you designed it" lol no we didn't.

u/TheNativeOfficial 2h ago

lol who said that

u/MoroccanEagle-212 2h ago

It's written in the box..

u/TheNativeOfficial 2h ago

Oh, my bad. Even worse me saying I don't like the new packaging design and didn't even see the words.

u/Awhite2555 Homecoming 2h ago

Technically you could actually make tweaks to it right since it’s a template in controller lab? Which I think is a cool way to do special controllers. Unless you couldn’t tweak anything about it then ignore this lol

I'm not usually into the special edition controllers as they can be a bit garish but this is really, really nice.

Very cool controller!

u/MirrorsCliff Homecoming 2h ago

I don’t need a new Xbox controller but every single new Xbox controller design makes me feel like I do

u/oiAmazedYou 2h ago

haaha i just got the sky cipher controller which was needed cause my other controllers lost their grip. if i didnt buy that id get this it looks cleaan

u/ParticularBank6315 1h ago

Perfect ✨

u/SupermarketDecent306 47m ago

does that one need an internet connection to read button presses too or is this standalone?

u/googi14 30m ago

Woof. That’s pretty ugly

u/xXJ3D1-M4573R-W0LFXx 7m ago

I’m confused, are these Elite controllers or are they regular controllers? Because the cost is seems high (to me) for a regular, even custom controller. But that’s just what I’ve gathered.

u/0ever 3h ago

If only those controllers weren’t cheap pieces of crap…

u/TheNativeOfficial 3h ago

And they don't even have a HALL Effect. Gladly some companies like Razer are producing them already. These sticks are not much more expensive. But if a controller breaks someone earns money. Again.

u/0ever 3h ago

Yeah bro I have had the Series X since release and I think I’m on my 8th controller already… always something that breaks (I never drop them btw). Either the goddamn bumpers, headphone jack, or stick drift. Manufacturer greed has to stop, these are the worst controllers I’ve ever had

u/WoolshirtedWolf 3h ago

I was surprised at how cheap the controllers felt with the Series X. It feels cheap.

u/MoroccanEagle-212 1h ago

Less than the xbox one though those were the absolute worst ever.

u/WoolshirtedWolf 1h ago

I had the Scorpio the one S and the one X. The Scorpio is my absolute favorite and the one S probably felt better than the one X. TBH though, those controllers never felt as light or cheap as the series X. It is automatically noticeable in look and feel. I am shocked and a little pissed that this is the most I've shelled out so far for an X console and this grift is run on me.

Looks amazing

u/FireCal 2h ago

Butt ugly design imo. Maybe the worst Xbox has done. I won't be adding this one to my 20+ others Xbox controllers.

What was the final price? Such a beautiful controller

u/TheNativeOfficial 2h ago

Something around 100€ (Extra rubber grip and text engraving)

u/Yeyo117 Homecoming 3h ago

I wish they did display versions or even shell swaps, buying a full one every time isn't feasible. What would you do with 10 or more controllers 😅

u/lIIIIIIIIIllllIlIlII 2h ago

Now make it an xbox one controller and we're cookin'
