Scuf Controllers and Urgent Fury

[shane]

So I had an interesting conversation with the owner of Scuf Gaming last week. I actually held the controller and understand it is not electronically modified so that you have double tap, rapid fire, etc. We have had quite the outcry from the competitive community about allowing these controllers at the Chicago event.

 

Now our stance when it comes to people bringing their own controllers will not change. But we would consider if we had a controller for all players so that there is an even playing field. What are your thoughts on the Scuf Controller specifically. This discussion is not about modded controllers, only about the scuf that has the paddle on the bottom that act as the X and O buttons.

I think it's fine. From the people I've seen and heard talk about them it actually takes them plenty of game time to adjust to using the paddles and actually taking advantage of them. Besides the paddles the controller is simply a stock ps3 controller the Xbox has the extra goodies like trigger stops and such.

I don't think that there is a lot of us that use them now. I've been playing with a lot of the clans here at uf and we talk about the things we use to play with and that is something that doesn't come up. I personally do not have a problem with them only because they are not "modded" to the point where it is considerd cheating. I would love to try one and see how much more effective I could be with one on my own time but not at Chicago because I have not used one before. I would not be using them there I'm used to regular ps3 controlers

What people don't see is that they are regular PS3 controllers the only mod is the paddles which as I said take alot of time to effectively use and master
