A great job of explaining how to setup the elite 2 controller. Even an old gamer like me could follow your steps with no problems. Thanks again you have a new subscriber
I just got this as a gift from my brother and wanted to understand all these new funky features, good stuff mate. Very concise and didn't waste time either. Earned a sub
I may sound stupid, but I looked up other videos and most others explained you just needed to dock your remote on the charging pad to connect it to the pc. You're the first person that connected it directly to the control and it worked for me. Thanks!
So much info packed into 7 min. Well done my guy. Thanks for the info, I just picked mine up and you did a great job going over everything - even the stuff I didn't know I wanted to know.
I tried setting it up on my own without reading anything from the box and was having a rough time. This was really helpful, short and concise. Thank you so much
Incredible experience watching this video just open the box myself went from console gaming all my life to this pc world, thank you so much mike you just got a new sub
This helped. I really like the setup & representation on the controller packaging. Never owned an Xbox but got this controller since it has better PC support then a PS Controller. The ps5 controller I bought did not even come with a USB C Cable. I was looking for the driver until you mentioned xbox accessory app in the MS Store. Thanks for the video. Not sure why anyone would dislike your video. It was on point
Mike! I was one of those guys you were talking about in the beginning of the video. I decided to stick it out and what do you know?? I learned something! I have had my Elite wireless controller for 2-3 years now and NEVER realized that tool in the lower center of the controller case was a tension tool for the joystick! I figured it was a pry tool for removing accessories for guys that have sausage fingers like myself lol. Learning this is going to help me control my cars in my race games so much better and I have you to thank! I am still figuring out how to wirelessly get my controller to work. So, back to the remainder of this video. Thanks Mike!
Dude! Everyone out there makes a "how to" video for this but explains absolutely nothing about how to set it up as if you just pulled it out of the box. Thank you very much!
Nice job, man. A friend recommended this controller to me, and showed me your video. The combination of his recommendation and your video made me buy one. I got to say, your video helped a lot, because I had an issue where it tried and failed to install the xbox identity provider software repeatedly for about two hours. A quick viewing of this video, and one firmware update later, the identity provider app was no longer required and the device just worked as intended. I wish I'd just watched your video through properly first time around!
@@brycel.8291 I wasn't able to at first, either. I did a firmware update on the controller, which basically made it possible. I think MS changed something, which required the firmware update. Watch the video again. Also, plug in the controller dire t to your computer,a d try opening Microsoft store, and Microsoft companion apps. Turn the controller on and off a few times, and It will trigger the update.
Oh my god thank you!! I've been struggling with getting the Bluetooth to connect. I just needed to hold down the button longer. Guess I wasn't patient enough earlier when I was frustrated.
bruh, spot on. I have always detested controllers but then Elden Ring came out and is half-assed with a keyboard and mouse and this got me going quickly and efficiently, I tip my cap humbly to you.
When i connect my controller yesterday it said xbox elite wireless controller series 2 and it worked. today i connected it again and now it sais xbox wireless controller and it does not work on cod. can you pls help me?
I just built my first PC and my best friend gave me this as a bday gift a couple days ago I tried it out and couldn’t get it to work then found your video. THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR.
Had to search for a video to find out how it's customized on the software side, because M$ ain't mentioning it anywhere on their product site... very sad. Thanks for explaining it in this video!
need some help for sure, xbox game bar keeps popping up everytime i press the A button on my controller, only happens when I connect to bluetooth and I cant seem to map the controller through bluetooth at all, is there something Im missing? please help! 🤣🤣✌
@@fpsdoug5695 after months of no replies I finally got another firmware update for my controller, I had basically lost all hope, but just yesterday picked it up and tried again, with 100% success, so if you are still having this issue try a or another firmware update if that doesn't work you open up the gamebar menu and open the settings like gear cog thing, go into shortcuts and uncheck open Xbox gamebar using controller Xbox button. update the firmware before you uncheck that because then you have to open gamebar with Win+key and G. either or is a solution to a very annoying problem, lmao! 😅, happy gaming 🤟
This was very informative and helpful. Also, this is one of the best controllers ive ever used, except that i would have like RBG buttons for almost $200
Ordered a Series X bundle at Microsoft's store and a Series 2 controller came in that bundle. The controller came first and still waiting on the Series X to arrive. So in the meantime I'm using it on my RoG laptop. Never owned an Xbox before until now. So thanks for telling me everything I needed to know bro. I'll just keep Steam gaming until it shows up.
Thank you so much. My [LB] button is broken on my controller and this video helped me to remap the [LB] button to one of the paddles instead. Again, Thank you.
See, this video right here! Is what the internet was once all about (INFORMATION) It seem that "it" has lost it core, and this simple search took me more than 5 mins to find. Great video! You got me all the information and more than the actual "google search" itself. You have earned yourself a new sub.
Finally I figure out my issue connecting to bluetooth! I was kept trying the 3rd option (that references Xbox controllers) which was not working... but the first bluetooth option worked like a charm! Thanks!
