Well I really hope they get this fixed before launch but it is a really close window for them now. I mean does not games go gold about a month before release usually. It can probably be an old build but then why show it in this state with lag and other problems.
The feel of a controller is so individual. One may hate it another may love it so I will wait until I personally gets to try it out.

All the public beta versions of the game across all versions either run like shit or look like shit. It is worrying in general

It shouldn't be next-gen's fault. All the key features of the game were leaked about 18 months in advance.

the controller is that bad? this is like the 4th piece of news telling me it's bad-say it ain't so
This, I've been concerned about them kind of "unifying" the design in that area.

It's a mixed bag. Some people think it's great, others aren't so happy about the changes.

Seems that this impression is much more about the controller than the Xbox One BF4. I've heard several accounts of gaffers and journalists saying they prefer the X360 pad over the new one, but I've never seen a review this harsh about the new controller =/
Yeah that's true...

For the people who want some extra challenge in BF4.
Guys, him not liking the controller is an opinion, not a fact. A very unpopular opinion at that.
Who else had a bad opinion of the controller? He's the first one I've ever heard of.

This will be a sad generation, hoping that the PS4 version of any multiplat games run better. I never have to say that since I'll buy all multiplat games for my pc
Where have you been? There have been plenty of less-than-glowing impressions of the XBO controller.
Really? I've seen a bunch of GAF, usually after a big trade show.

I foresee a big controller hate thread when the XBone releases and how MS should release the 360 controller for it instead.

It probably means it's a bigger departure from the X360 than people were anticipating. People were probably all expecting a better version of the 360 pad, and they got something really different. Some people really love the new changes, some hate it. Circle of life and all that jazz.

Well from that one video its missing shadows so I wouldn't put too much stock into being close to the final build.
Don't, after 1 minute you should be used to it if you played 360 games. I only played one race of Forza 5 but the controller immediately felt good.

After playing PC beta I was wondering how they were going to get this game to run at 60fps on next gen systems.

I played Forza at PAX Prime and wasn't terribly impressed with the XBO controller. While I didn't notice the drastic differences stated in the OP, it just felt very "meh" in my hands. Nothing special, you know? Maybe that was because it's not a huge departure from the 360 controller?

input lag won't be a thing on decent tv's
can't think of a single controller in the last decade that had bad input lag
the rest though...

Some impressions posted in various threads on here and other forums. I would search them out for you, but I'm too damn lazy at the moment. Really sorry, perhaps someone less of a lazy sod would be so kind as to search out the various impressions...
It's legit apparently. I don't remember there being that much lag when I played it back in the day.

Only signed software runs on actual hardware. They will be showing off the game on dev kits until it goes gold and actual retail discs are pressed.
Also what they are showing now isn't necessarily where they are in development as of now. The builds they show are usually atleast a couple months old. There's a process which I can get extrapolate on if people are interested. I'm feeling lazy though.
Also ouch @ the xbox one controller comments. Considering that it may be my PC controller for the next decade that's a bit of a bummer.

That is almost certainly the result of a tv with shitty input lag.

I've played with the X1 controller at E3!! Rest assured it's AMAZING. DS4 is great too, but I prefer X1...
Also if anyone thinks they'll ship a game like the video posted, they're fooling themselves. There's OTHER videos on youtube that states the exact opposite. Saying the controller was great and the graphics are damn near the PC's highest settings.

It isn't even supported at launch too, and I've read that the PS4 one is PC compatible from day one?

was the game actually this bad? from that gif it almost seems like the person has the motion enhancement turned on causing major lag.
There were people concerned about somethings about it, but not out right hate it like this person.
There isn't. I think it is the TV, but I could be wrong.

As far as I remember there was lag, but not anywhere near this bad as far as I remember. I should probably do a test on my own setup to compare. I'd laugh if it ended up actually being that bad.

Yeah, it's not final but the fact that it looks and sounds terrible at this point is pretty worrying and suggests that they might be rushing it out.
That's because they're not.

I'm leaning towards TV input lag. I don't remember it being that bad when I played it years ago. Maybe a replay to check how bad it is, is in order...
Its literally going gold this month....They'll be working hard on it, but remember it takes 4 weeks to sign, press and distribute a AAA game.
About the Dev kits, that's not an issue, games will still be shown on dev kits next E3 on both PS4 and XB1, It's just the way it works.
About the controller? I've heard it's a step back form the x360 controller, but it's still a very good controller. though I've only heard that form friends, Haven't had hands on myself yet.

I've used the pad.
Although it felt a bit small, the bumper complaint is a bit exaggerated. Plenty of space on the trigger itself.
