KONTROLFREEK FPS FREEK CALL OF DUTY BLACK OPS III SOFTWARE
I maintain a healthy K/D ratio in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare, but I found myself much more into the positive with the added control. The KontrolFreek FPS Freek Black Ops III Edition does exactly as it advertises, giving more control when moving and aiming over what software settings just don’t deliver on.

It takes an adjustment period, and while it doesn’t perform magic, it does help you improve your game. While it’s too early to tell, the wear and tear doesn’t seem to be much of a factor or concern. They never felt natural until I played something like Killzone: Shadow Fall or Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Testing with racing games, third-person games, side-scrollers, and others not of the first-person ilk proved to have minimal but interesting improvements. It takes careful placement as this was one of the rare scenarios where too much pressure at this height and using my palm as opposed to a thumb resulted it in popping off during play. I found some surprising improvements in Mortal Kombat X where moves require quarter-circle turns to execute a move became a bit easier to pull off. Even those who develop sweaty hands are likely not to slip off of this rubber-coated surface.

The laser etching of the “III” of the Black Ops logo is smart and surprisingly grippy at the same time. The bold orange of the sticks contrasts to the regular black of both the Xbox One and DualShock 4 controllers to match the series color scheme. The box has a “preview” to get a feel of the rubber and height, but perhaps you might be able to get a demo of them before making a purchase.

But the height of the KontrolFreek FPS Freek Black Ops III Edition sticks required my fingers to stretch further from their normal positions to adjust, and it’ll just come down to whether that’s a comfortable change or not. I don’t have small hands, nor do I have big hands. It’s immediate and apparent of the increased mobility of the sticks which will improve aiming and movement accuracy of both sticks. These work best on FPS games, but improvements can be found in any game.

It will take some getting used to, as these extend the height of the sticks increases by 10mm. Only in rare occasions did these ever come off during play, but these will hold in normal circumstances. They won’t damage them upon securely snapping them into place. And while you don’t have to love Call of Duty or even first-person shooters to appreciate the benefits of these sticks, it would be better if you did due to their aesthetic and branding.īuild specifically for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, these sticks are hardware add-ons, that simply clip on to your existing sticks without replacing them entirely. I wish I had more game clips to provide - shocking how 1 terabyte isn’t enough hard drive storage in 2015 - so let me quickly illustrate using these thumbsticks per game.Call of Duty: Black Ops III doesn’t release until November 6th, but KontrolFreek has already made a Black Ops III branded FPS Freek stick in preparation for this year’s Call of Duty. Otherwise I couldn’t tell the difference from when I didn’t have them on. In the moment the Grips do make the controller better to handle, but it’s only noticeable for seconds at a time. So Turtlebeach’s adapter is now stuck to my controller forever.Īnd it’s maybe not worth it.

The adhesive is great, but it isn’t easily removable and adjustable like KontrolFreek touts. Refusing to give up one, I compromised by applying the bottom part of the Grips (which wrap around the controller’s legs) onto the Turtlebeach adapter. Turtlebeach’s adapter and KontrolFreek’s Grips get in the way of each other.

But if you’re like me and play with Turtlebeach headphones, they don’t mix well. They’re not hard to apply (maybe a little confusing - I looked at the box for an awkwardly long time to ensure the right position). KontrolFreek's controller Grips are neat, but not necessary. I used the FPS Freek Galaxy sticks the most during my time with them. So 2K, FIFA, and Gran Turismo and Forza fans, keep reading.įor our input, KontrolFreek sent us their new FPS Freek Galaxy, Freek Call of Duty Black Ops III, Freek CQC Signature, and KontrolFreek Grips for Xbox One.
