@@FrankSparapani I just bought one for my ps4 and I have followed all your steps to set up the mods but they don’t work. I wanted to use the anti recoil and the blue light is on it but it doesn’t actually work
Bought one yesterday. played COD:IW and after some practice I was doubling my kill score. No Mods, just using the toggles. Absolutely brilliant product.
For the price it's an awesome product. I don't use mods, I only bought the strikepack for the paddles. They are well placed and easy to use. Glad you are enjoying it.
Mods are cheats no doubt but I'd get this solely for the back paddles. Back paddle shifters I don't consider cheating because they are the face buttons just remapped.
I have a question, I just ordered mine and it will get here in a few days; I wanted to know if they work when plugged into an outlet or does it have to be connected to the usb of the PS4?
The Strikepack has to be connected to the PS4 with the USB cord provided. The PS4 and Strikepack will sync together. I hope you enjoy using your Strikepack. If you have any questions on how to use it, feel free to ask and I'll be more then happy to help you out.
This dude responded to all 6.5k comments. You really put a lot of effort in to your videos. I’ve watched like 5 vids about the strike pack, and I did not understand anything. But with you, you put the effort in to make it easy to understand. And also people who had questions in the comments, you responded to all of them. Keep up the good work man. You just earned a sub ;)
Who says you need a PC??! If you watch the video, I do everything directly from the controller it self. No need for a pc, comes ready to use straight out of the box.
Frank Sparapani all of the ps4 controller reviews for this pack all had controller mapping without pc, but i’m on xbox and i could not find one video without them saying i need a pc to program the buttons. i’m not sure if it’s just an xbox thing but if you looked you’ll find no video without an xbox player having to use a pc
The Strikepack FPS dominator works pretty much the same way for both the PS4 and Xbox One. It comes plug n play directly out of the box. No computer needed to remap the paddles and apply mods. You can do everything directly from the controller it self while in game.
Idk how I came across your video but I must say you do an EXCELLENT job of explaining how the product works and providing your feedback in a way that come across as genuine an totally unbiased. I will be hitting subscribe as soon as I finish this post and I also want to say that this is the first time that I've sat thru an entire product review video and paid attention to every word. Keep up the excellent work and I look forward to seeing your future videos!!! Cheers from Las Vegas mate, have a great day!
Thank you so much man ! That means a lot. Glad you enjoyed my video. I try my best to be informative, give good feedback and show the product in detail. And if something is crap then I'll say it and be honest. I'm working hard to make awesome videos for people to enjoy. Thank you for subscribing ! I am looking forward to seeing you on my channel. I vlogged a lot during Formula1 so feel free to check out those vids. It's on my bucket list to travel to Las Vegas. Welcome to my channel bro ! You are awesome. Have a great day as well.
@@FrankSparapani They say this doesn't work for AR's in the division 2 but when I went to shooting range it did more damage than it does not running it. I have several raid clears without using this mod but when we did raid last night the clean leader tried to say my rifle (single fire) doesn't do enough DPS. We wiped a few times and I'd look at the damage numbers and mine was higher than his was using strike pack. He kept saying I need to use a P416 and nemesis as secondary. I'm starting to think alot of people are straight haters and he didn't like the fact that I was using my MK17 like an assualt rifle. He said it was an algorithm and that's what it makes you think it's doing. Is the MK17 the best rifle to use with strike pack? Thanks sir!
The strikepack is a powerful device and it works on most FPS games. The rapid fire mod will turn any semi or single fire weapons into a full auto one. I’m not exactly sure what’s the best rifle in Division.
This is the happiest I’ve been in a while. I went to Walmart to see if the sold a scuff and I saw this product and there was exactly 1 left!! The price wasn’t on the shelf so I scanned it and it came up as $35... my jaw dropped dude and I sprinted to the cashier!!!!!!
If you are using the paddles then you are fine. If you plan on using the mods then there’s always a possibility of getting banned. No one has ever been banned for using the strikepack before so you will be fine.
Steven Fonseca there’s no way possible in the world you would ever get banned for using the strike pack. It’s basically a $35 dollar Scuff controller. It is 110%% worth every single penny. Personally, I’m shocked it’s that cheap to be honest lol. Go get one right now you’ll love it. Took me a little bit to get used to but now in the new cod modern warefare I’m jump shotting and sliding around like a badass lol P.S the mods are trash. There not even worth it. Grab it for the paddles don’t even waste your time trying to use the mods. The mods would work fine in single player but for multiplayer public matches for call of duty everyone is moving so fast that the mods actually slow you up a little bit it so the mods end up actually hurting your gameplay. The mods take like 0.5 to register into the game, so for a game like the new cod where the time to kill is so freaking fast, most the time ur getting killed BECAUSE your using mods. Fuck mods. The paddles are INSTANT. The paddles are where it’s at. Fuck mods. Paddles rule. Strikepack rules. 😁
@@FrankSparapani I got my paddles set to slide and jump respectively. But I cant figure out how to set up the mods for black ops 4. Is it same as bo3?.
It’s the same. Simply follow the steps in the video to activate the mods. You can also try watching the tutorial I did for the latest strikepack version.
Thank you for checking out my video ! I am glad you enjoyed it. I have both EB Games and Gamestop links in my description. I purchase all my stuff EB Games. Do you offer sponsorship for TH-camrs like myself ?
Unfortunately we do not. It's something our marketing team has discussed in the past but I am afraid at this time we haven't solidified any sort of plan for it. We do appreciate your business and support, and thank you for your kind words!
You are welcome. Again, thank you for watching my video and giving me positive feedback. It is amazing to know that my video is getting noticed by big company's. Lets me know that I am heading in the right direction with my channel. If ever you do start sponsoring TH-camr's keep me in mind :)
Well we aren't the only ones! The rep for Collective Minds forwarded us the link to learn more about the product. They'd like us to do an unboxing of our own. I can say I learned a lot from this video. Keep up the good work
That's awesome!! So cool. Collective Minds have given me positive feedback on my videos. They also shared my strikepack configurator tool tutorial video on their Facebook page. If you are making an unboxing video of the strikepack feel free to give me a shoutout :D lol. I'm putting in a lot of hard work to make my channel successful ! I'm going to keep working hard. Thanks for the support. I appreciate it.
Hey man lol I’m two years late but I just want to thank you for helping me realize how dumb I can be lol I was freaking out because the strike pack wouldn’t turn on like I couldn’t see the light from the back! After watching your video I saw that you really had to put some force with the cable into the controller and I did that and boom it turned on! Thank you! I’ve watched so many videos today about the strike pack but you’re the only one that really helped me
Hey ! You are never too late lol. You do really have to put some force into plugins in the USB cable into the strikepack. You are very welcome for the help. I have become the go to person for the strikepack so if ever you need any more help, let me know and I’ll be more then happy to help you out.
@@FrankSparapani so I recently found out that Bluetooth ds4 is 8ms faster in input delay than it is when in USB mode. And with the strikepack you have to go USB.. one of the downsides. I've owned one for a long time I have their red, shorter paddles because my fingers are short
The red paddles are awesome. Actually a wired connection creates lag free gameplay. This is why all pro players play with their controllers plugged in.
Ordered mines a day ago and got it today (Amazon Prime ftw) and I love it so far. Takes some time to get used to as I haven’t played with paddles on my or any controller since 2017. Best thing about it would be the paddle placement. Easily reachable. And also the remap able paddles. Great alternative to spending $160+ on a competitive controller.
Everything you just mentioned is exactly why I love the strikepack so much. The product is amazing and nothing really comes close to it at its price point.
I’ve put nearly $300 into my Scuff. The thumb sticks fail so damn often and the paddles are awkwardly positioned. I’ve barely owned my Scuff for a year. I think having something like this that you can add-on to an existing well made Sony PS4 controller (at this price) is brilliant.
I find the scuf paddles awkwardly placed as well and it’s just too expensive. That’s why the strikepack is a great product. For its price, you can’t find better. Collective Minds actually came out with differently shaped paddles to suit different hand positions on the controller. I would say the strikepack is beyond worth getting.
I remember back in the early 2000s, both Interact and Thrustmaster made dual analog controllers for the PC that had 3 pairs of shoulder buttons. I always thought that was brilliant. And here we are today with both Sony and Microsoft still not realizing the benefit to this triple set, shoulder button design. Nice review. I plan on picking up this controller mod. I like Collective Minds work. P.S. The Thrustmaster controller was called the Firestorm Dual Analog 3 Gamepad.
Yeah I never fully understood why Sony and Microsoft don’t just make their controllers standard with the extra back paddles. I guess they are leaving the market open for the third party companies. Glad you enjoyed the review !! I appreciate the feedback.
This is definitely the best product any gamer can ask for this creation is amazing and I recommend you get this it is the missing key to a true gamer , thank you for making this product you guys rock and the alternative paddles take it to even a higher level best accessory ever true story.
Just got mine today. Way better than the skuff. The buttons are in a better spot. Its more durable. Its way cheaper. My skuff broke in one night!!! not even joking. A just got done playing with the strike pack for 8 hours. still playing perfectly. So comfortable and easy to use. Skuff is a scam. This is the real deal. get one
Thanks for checking out my video. Glad you are enjoying your Strikepack. The Strikepack's paddles are well placed and fits my hands perfectly ! I've been using mine for a few months now and it's still working perfectly.
As for the cable, it’s designed to not stress the USB port which frequently breaks on other devices. It’s actually an excellent design and it’s in no way a skeem to sell cables.
Amazing video, I was considering buying this product after seeing how much the scuff I wanted cost. But after being on the fence then Watching this video I bought this and some kontrol freeks and made my own scuff. Subscribing asap keep it up.
Glad you enjoyed the video. I have come along way since this video. I have many more strikepack tutorial videos on my channel. Thanks for subbing. I appreciate that.
It’s me again, I recently dropped my controller and the strike pack got hit but the light still comes on when it’s plugged in. I tried 2 different chargers and it won’t connect
Good video and I like how you showed us how to remap the back buttons while some channels only talk about the mods. One thing Scuf can't do for their price is once it wears out you have to buy a new one and if you want another Scuf that is a bunch of money. The huge advantage with Strikepack is that if the controller wears out you can just replace the controller and save $100+.
Glad you enjoyed watching the video. The strikepack is still a great buy for the money. They now sell replacement paddles if you lose one and also sell a different style of paddle.
You are never too late lol. Glad you enjoyed my review! I’m sure you will enjoy your strikepack a lot. If ever you have any questions, feel free to ask and I’ll help you out or tune into my live streams and I’ll help you out on the spot.
I’m a few years late but I have come across videos of people who are just trying to sell the product or just not explaining probably but thanks for helping me out +1 sub 👍
Thx man I’m getting one it’s ganna come after 2 weeks you just earned 2 subs man you put so much effort more than every video instructions good job ❤️❤️❤️
Hey frank i live in montreal and i saw in this video that collectiveminds have an office here in town , do you know if they sell this product there ???because i dont wanna buy it from amazon !
I am not sure if their location in Montreal is where they make it. I never ended up finding that out. You can always buy the strikepack directly from their website. And welcome to my channel man ! Awesome to see a fellow Montrealer checking out my videos.
You can use your headset USB or you can use it wired. Both ways work. Connect the strikepack first and then connect your headset which ever way you want.
If you are looking to purchase a new gaming headset, I did a review on the PS4 Platinum wireless headset. Watch and find out if it is worth purchasing ! th-cam.com/video/Fjpz_MyuWNU/w-d-xo.html

So you call me a hater then Sparapani? That comment wasn't meant to be a hate comment nor was it flaming or something. If you team up against someone so easily (in this case: me) without knowing the other one then you should close your comment section and reconsider your life as a youtuber. I was writing something about your vid because it kinda makes no sense to review a product what you personally would never use. Then you went personal by calling me a flamer by agreeing with the other person. Have a nice day!
Lol. No one mentioned your name, called you any names or attacked you personally and no ones teaming up against you. So not sure where you are getting all this from. Enjoy your day and have fun gaming man.
Whenever i plug the cable in the strike pack ,i do not have to ask again which account i want to use ,but there is a battery symbol , controller symbol and a headset symbol ,why is that?
They only patched the jitter mod but all the other mods still work on BO3. Collective Minds is currently working on a firmware update for the Strikepack to get the jitter mod working again on BO3
So the update will automatically go to my controller? Also what are the other mods that I can use? BTW you just got a like, notification on, and a subscribe!
Thanks for the like, subscribe and turning notifications on. Welcome to my squad ! You are awesome. Thanks so much. Greatly appreciated. There has already been a bunch of firmware updates released. In order to update the Strikepack you have to go to the Collective Minds website and download the update. It will tell you to plug in your Strikepack into your computer and then it updates automatically. Pretty quick and easy. There's also a configurator tool where you can plug in the Strikepack to your computer and use the configurator to apply the mods and fine tune settings. Pretty cool. I made a tutorial video on it. I also explain how to update it. Here it is: th-cam.com/video/3eRCH12HhVo/w-d-xo.html There are a bunch of mods: rapid Fire, adjustable rapid fire, burst fire, pulse fire, anti- recoil, drop shot, quick scope, turbo, auto hold breath, auto spot, hair trigger and a few others. It's a pretty powerful device.
I'm thinking on it. Just looking at it I'd give it an 85/100. the necessary wiring isn't gonna bug me, ps4 controller is always plugged in for me. main question, do the triggers seem like you could accidentally pop em off while playing?
Good question man ! I have yet to have them pop off on me. I've been pretty rough with them as well and they have stayed in place and performed well. So you won't have a problem with them popping off. The magnets are pretty strong.
Frank Sparapani well, guess I'll get one sooner or later then. namely for the paddles. are all the mods simply macros, meaning can I use a rapid fire mod on games that don't have guns?
Frank Sparapani I just bought one and im not sure how to hold it. Are you supposed to hold them with middle finger or ring finger. For me it feel like it should be ring finger but at the same time doesn't feel right.
With the way that I feel comfortable using the ps4 controller my ring finger lays perfectly over the paddles. Everyone is different and has different styles of play. I say the more you use the Strikepack you will get used to it and your fingers will naturally go to that position. but if you want me to pick a finger I will have to say ring finger lol.
Hey, question. I bought my strike pack several months ago and now it's randomly disconnecting. I will playing fortnite and this will be happening several times a game. Do you know a fix to this?
Sometimes the strikepack firmware just needs to be updated. Other times, which I have seen a few times, the USB cable needs to be changed. Try using another USB cable to see if it solves your issue.
Very late comment but 1) does it have to be plugged in to use only the paddles [no mods] and 2) can I use the strike pack on my scuff with the scuff paddles removed? [my left paddle on the scufs been acting up but I’d rather still use it for the other features it has]
There’s never a late comment so don’t worry about it lol. The strikepack is a wired device so it needs to be plugged in while using it even when using the paddles. I am not too sure I’d the strikepack will fit on a scuff controller. Sometimes a scuff controller isn’t even a PS4 controller design. If it is the same design, I think the mechanism to hold the paddles will interfere with the strikepack fitting on. I would have to do some research to see if it’s possible.
Frank Sparapani thank you so much for the response!!! If you ever find out that would be greatly appreciated. I’ve been using the 4ps infinity pro scuff, it’s just sad that the paddles aren’t made to last. Also happy holidays!!!
The back of the scuf controllers are shaped different to hold their paddles so I am fair confident that the strikepack won’t fit into the controller. Paddles on a scuf don’t last long. I would suggest getting stock controller and the strikepack, much better combo !! Happy holidays to you as well !!!
Glad someone noticed! Not a lot of TH-camrs take the time to reply to comments and give back to their community. Working hard to build up a great community!
I own this and the clip that goes onto the speaker is poorly made. It has three bumps that go into the speaker hole but they are plastic and wear down. This clip is supposed to help stabilize the strike pack so it does not move. It appears that you can remove the clip and replace it, however customer service says that they do not sell parts for replacement. This happened when the product was 1 month out of warranty. I can only hold it in place with a rubberband now. Be warned, as they do no sell replacement parts like the latch.
Been using the strikepack for over 3 years now and it’s still solid on my controller. I’ve had zero issue with the latch. It’s actually well made and secures the strikepack tightly onto the controller. Not too sure why you are experiencing that or how the latch would even wear out. Highly unlikely for that to happen. You are also the only person to say this so you might not be properly installing the strikepack. Thanks for the feedback though, greatly appreciated.
@@FrankSparapani The latch pegs are mainly the issues. They wore down so they no longer catch the microphone holes. The plastic seems to be a cheaper material. The strike pack works great otherwise. My main complaints are the cheaper material and poor design by having it latch into the microphone holes, as well with the poor customer service received by the company and the unwillingness on their end to send me a replacement latch, even when I offered to pay for it. My strike pack still works it just requires a rubberband to hold in place now which is rather annoying.
I’ve been using the strikepack for over three years with zero issues of the latch wearing out. Not too sure how they can wear out with normal use. How often are you taking off and putting back on your strikepack ? I’ve done it quite a few times and I still don’t see how they can wear out unless you physically sand them off lol or chew them lol.
I posted links to GameStop USA and Canada in the description. Your best bet is to buy it online from GameStop or use their store locator to see which stores have it close to you. A few Walmart's have them as well. Hope you find it.
Oh very cool. Well welcome to my channel ! Where in Europe are you from ? You can try checking on Amazon but I believe it is out of stock. If I find out any information as to when it will be available I will let you know.
I'm from Slovenia and yes Amazon is out of stock. I wanted to buy it but it was twice the price cause of the shipping. Thank I appreciate that a lot! You just got a new subscriber!
Again welcome to my channel and thank you for subscribing I really appreciate it. Sucks that the shipping is twice the price but if I find it is available I will let you know.
You most likely aren’t connecting it properly. You can follow the steps in my troubleshooting video: th-cam.com/video/3tMLp03WVfU/w-d-xo.html the first question will help you out.
Awesome review! Just wondering if you wanted to use this product just for the paddles and stay legit in the game (COD: MW), would you program the paddles to double X and double O and press the paddles once each depending if you want to jump or prone, or would you program it to one X and one O and click the paddles twice? Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed the review. The paddles simply mimic the button that it’s assigned to. So remap just X and O once. in order to jump you just click the paddle that assigned to X, if you want to go prone just click the paddle assigned to O and if you want to slide just press the hold the O paddle.
Glad you enjoyed the video. You can only use a Mac to update the strikepack. If you want to use the Mod Pass mods which is the yearly subscription, you will need a PC to do that.
After I map the paddles to a button, can I unplug the thing and it will still work or no? Also three years later your still replying and you made this great video, I think that’s amazing.
The strikepack is a wired device so it’s needs to be connected to your console while using it. Glad you enjoyed the video and hell im replying to comments. I care about my community and the people watching my videos.
I just bought mines today and When I turn it on the battery/headphone symbol doesn’t pop up. I can’t remap the paddles and hear anything when I plug in headphones. The lights on the striker logo is on though (white). Help!
Your strikepack isn’t connected properly. Make sure the USB cable is fully plugged into your strikepack. Press it in all the way and reconnect. Should solve your issue.
My strike pack just doesn't work, & when It finally gets picked up by my PS4, my controller randomly stops working, otherwise it just doesn't do anything... great video though, it is quite entertaining.
I’ve seen this issue before. It can be caused most likely by a faulty USB cable or maybe the USB port on the strikepack is faulty. I would suggest trying another USB cable to see if that corrects the issue.
@@FrankSparapani Thanks, but the thing is that I had just bought it just late last week from my local bestbuy, but I'll see if I can find another cord in my giant collection of spare's, lol.
You do know that extra paddles is a mod right? Mod means modification. Adding 2 extra triggers that can be set to any button is a modification. I’m not hating, I have this exact pack and I use it daily. Just don’t be naive and think because you’re not using the mod functions, that that doesn’t mean you’re not still modding. Food for thought. Great review.
Hey, glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for your feedback. Not naive at all. Generally when people thing of modding, they think of hacking and altering the source coding of a game which the strikepack doesn’t have the ability to do that. All pro players used paddled controllers and a few of these controller companies sponsor the competitions so remapable paddles are safe to you. It’s definitely a touchy situation. Have fun gaming and hope to see you in my live streams.
Glad you enjoyed the video. To answer your questions. Yes the strikepack works once all those games. You can have all 8 mod slots turned on at once if you really wanted to.
What are mods? How do I use them? What do they do? Can I get banned in fortnite for using this? I’m only interested in using the paddles because this is way easier then buying an expensive scuff controller and it breaking in a few days
I explain and answer all your questions in the video. I’ve never seen anyone get banned for using mods but it’s always a possibility. I use the strikepack just for the paddles, it’s an amazing product and well worth. My strikepack is still going strong. Here’s an updated video: th-cam.com/video/DYXnsWm37_I/w-d-xo.html
Its definetely worth the price. U can even create short macros in just a few seconds WHILE playing. But after a few months it will start to disconnect randomly

@@FrankSparapani Thanks. Sounds like a super convenient product
It is !
"i don't use mods... but they are fun to use"
Lol mods are fun to use but most are just too OP !!
Mods are cheats no doubt but I'd get this solely for the back paddles. Back paddle shifters I don't consider cheating because they are the face buttons just remapped.

You are welcome man ! Have fun gaming.
Frank Sparapani i wanted to buy one of these, but you need a pc for first mapping the back paddles to a button. which i don’t have
Who says you need a PC??! If you watch the video, I do everything directly from the controller it self. No need for a pc, comes ready to use straight out of the box.
Frank Sparapani all of the ps4 controller reviews for this pack all had controller mapping without pc, but i’m on xbox and i could not find one video without them saying i need a pc to program the buttons. i’m not sure if it’s just an xbox thing but if you looked you’ll find no video without an xbox player having to use a pc
The Strikepack FPS dominator works pretty much the same way for both the PS4 and Xbox One. It comes plug n play directly out of the box. No computer needed to remap the paddles and apply mods. You can do everything directly from the controller it self while in game.

You are welcome !
@@FrankSparapani They say this doesn't work for AR's in the division 2 but when I went to shooting range it did more damage than it does not running it. I have several raid clears without using this mod but when we did raid last night the clean leader tried to say my rifle (single fire) doesn't do enough DPS. We wiped a few times and I'd look at the damage numbers and mine was higher than his was using strike pack. He kept saying I need to use a P416 and nemesis as secondary. I'm starting to think alot of people are straight haters and he didn't like the fact that I was using my MK17 like an assualt rifle. He said it was an algorithm and that's what it makes you think it's doing. Is the MK17 the best rifle to use with strike pack? Thanks sir!
The strikepack is a powerful device and it works on most FPS games. The rapid fire mod will turn any semi or single fire weapons into a full auto one. I’m not exactly sure what’s the best rifle in Division.
This is the happiest I’ve been in a while. I went to Walmart to see if the sold a scuff and I saw this product and there was exactly 1 left!! The price wasn’t on the shelf so I scanned it and it came up as $35... my jaw dropped dude and I sprinted to the cashier!!!!!!
The strikepack is an awesome product. Have fun gaming !!
Definitely get one.
If you are using the paddles then you are fine. If you plan on using the mods then there’s always a possibility of getting banned. No one has ever been banned for using the strikepack before so you will be fine.
Steven Fonseca there’s no way possible in the world you would ever get banned for using the strike pack. It’s basically a $35 dollar Scuff controller. It is 110%% worth every single penny. Personally, I’m shocked it’s that cheap to be honest lol. Go get one right now you’ll love it. Took me a little bit to get used to but now in the new cod modern warefare I’m jump shotting and sliding around like a badass lol
P.S the mods are trash. There not even worth it. Grab it for the paddles don’t even waste your time trying to use the
mods. The mods would work fine in single player but for multiplayer public matches for call of duty everyone is moving so fast that the mods actually slow you up a little bit it so the mods end up actually hurting your gameplay. The mods take like 0.5 to register into the game, so for a game like the new cod where the time to kill is so freaking fast, most the time ur getting killed BECAUSE your using mods. Fuck mods. The paddles are INSTANT. The paddles are where it’s at. Fuck mods. Paddles rule. Strikepack rules. 😁
InfinityWard loving your passion man !! Hope to see you in my live streams. I’ll have you join up for a few games.
Frank's the man. Otherside of the world I ping him a message and he's back to me in minutes helping me out. Top gezza
You are very welcome. Always a pleasure. Have fun gaming !!
@@FrankSparapani I got my paddles set to slide and jump respectively. But I cant figure out how to set up the mods for black ops 4. Is it same as bo3?.
It’s the same. Simply follow the steps in the video to activate the mods. You can also try watching the tutorial I did for the latest strikepack version.
Frank Sparapani Hey I have a question. Can I use a mod and remap both of the paddles? Or A mod occupies a paddle?
@@jhandelll6379 Not sure if I already answered your question but if you apply a mod to a paddle then the mod will take over.
We have this at EB Games in Canada as well (Gamestop is our US affiliate. This is a great video, thanks for making it!
Thank you for checking out my video ! I am glad you enjoyed it. I have both EB Games and Gamestop links in my description. I purchase all my stuff EB Games. Do you offer sponsorship for TH-camrs like myself ?
Unfortunately we do not. It's something our marketing team has discussed in the past but I am afraid at this time we haven't solidified any sort of plan for it. We do appreciate your business and support, and thank you for your kind words!
You are welcome. Again, thank you for watching my video and giving me positive feedback. It is amazing to know that my video is getting noticed by big company's. Lets me know that I am heading in the right direction with my channel. If ever you do start sponsoring TH-camr's keep me in mind :)
Well we aren't the only ones! The rep for Collective Minds forwarded us the link to learn more about the product. They'd like us to do an unboxing of our own. I can say I learned a lot from this video. Keep up the good work
That's awesome!! So cool. Collective Minds have given me positive feedback on my videos. They also shared my strikepack configurator tool tutorial video on their Facebook page. If you are making an unboxing video of the strikepack feel free to give me a shoutout :D lol. I'm putting in a lot of hard work to make my channel successful ! I'm going to keep working hard. Thanks for the support. I appreciate it.
Hey man lol I’m two years late but I just want to thank you for helping me realize how dumb I can be lol I was freaking out because the strike pack wouldn’t turn on like I couldn’t see the light from the back! After watching your video I saw that you really had to put some force with the cable into the controller and I did that and boom it turned on! Thank you! I’ve watched so many videos today about the strike pack but you’re the only one that really helped me
Hey ! You are never too late lol. You do really have to put some force into plugins in the USB cable into the strikepack. You are very welcome for the help. I have become the go to person for the strikepack so if ever you need any more help, let me know and I’ll be more then happy to help you out.
@@FrankSparapani you stull using it? Does it still works and still worth buying?
Yes I’m still using it and yes it’s going working and going strong. Totally worth buying. I highly recommend the strikepack.
@@FrankSparapani so I recently found out that Bluetooth ds4 is 8ms faster in input delay than it is when in USB mode. And with the strikepack you have to go USB.. one of the downsides. I've owned one for a long time I have their red, shorter paddles because my fingers are short
The red paddles are awesome. Actually a wired connection creates lag free gameplay. This is why all pro players play with their controllers plugged in.
Wow this is so detailed...cool and very understandable keep it up my friend amazing
Thank you very much !!! Glad you enjoyed !
Ordered mines a day ago and got it today (Amazon Prime ftw) and I love it so far. Takes some time to get used to as I haven’t played with paddles on my or any controller since 2017. Best thing about it would be the paddle placement. Easily reachable. And also the remap able paddles. Great alternative to spending $160+ on a competitive controller.
Everything you just mentioned is exactly why I love the strikepack so much. The product is amazing and nothing really comes close to it at its price point.
You don’t need a laptop to download the mods ?
No, the strikepack comes with the mods built in.
Can u help me out I can't get it to comment to my PS4
Make sure the usb cable is fully pressed into your strikepack and reconnect.
I’ve put nearly $300 into my Scuff. The thumb sticks fail so damn often and the paddles are awkwardly positioned. I’ve barely owned my Scuff for a year. I think having something like this that you can add-on to an existing well made Sony PS4 controller (at this price) is brilliant.
I find the scuf paddles awkwardly placed as well and it’s just too expensive. That’s why the strikepack is a great product. For its price, you can’t find better. Collective Minds actually came out with differently shaped paddles to suit different hand positions on the controller. I would say the strikepack is beyond worth getting.
I was gonna watch a bunch of reviews but this is literally the only one I need!!
Thanks for watching James. I make sure that all my review videos are a one stop shop and that everything is well explained.
why cheat ?

Frank Sparapani no problem existed for your next vids :)
Nice ! I'm glad you are excited for my next video ! "Hint" "hint" It might be a 1v1 sniper battle on they remake of rust ;)
I remember back in the early 2000s, both Interact and Thrustmaster made dual analog controllers for the PC that had 3 pairs of shoulder buttons. I always thought that was brilliant. And here we are today with both Sony and Microsoft still not realizing the benefit to this triple set, shoulder button design. Nice review. I plan on picking up this controller mod. I like Collective Minds work. P.S. The Thrustmaster controller was called the Firestorm Dual Analog 3 Gamepad.
Yeah I never fully understood why Sony and Microsoft don’t just make their controllers standard with the extra back paddles. I guess they are leaving the market open for the third party companies. Glad you enjoyed the review !! I appreciate the feedback.
This is definitely the best product any gamer can ask for this creation is amazing and I recommend you get this it is the missing key to a true gamer , thank you for making this product you guys rock and the alternative paddles take it to even a higher level best accessory ever true story.
Thanks for the feedback. Have fun gaming !!
dude this is probably the best review video ive ever watched and im definetly gonna buy it
Thank you very much !!! Glad you enjoyed !
Does it cover the headphone jack
Just got mine today. Way better than the skuff. The buttons are in a better spot. Its more durable. Its way cheaper. My skuff broke in one night!!! not even joking. A just got done playing with the strike pack for 8 hours. still playing perfectly. So comfortable and easy to use. Skuff is a scam. This is the real deal. get one
Thanks for checking out my video. Glad you are enjoying your Strikepack. The Strikepack's paddles are well placed and fits my hands perfectly ! I've been using mine for a few months now and it's still working perfectly.
@chip baskets
Can you explain the mods?
*scuff
Do you play on xbox or ps?
Chip
As for the cable, it’s designed to not stress the USB port which frequently breaks on other devices. It’s actually an excellent design and it’s in no way a skeem to sell cables.
It’s a pretty good design. I’ve been using the strikepack for 3 years now and never had an issue with it. Solid product.
You say "button" like Ed from Ed, Edd and Eddy. I like it.

But then realized the secret features(mods)
You will enjoy the strikepack a lot. The paddles are easy to use.
It doest work for me anyway..
Chances are you aren’t connecting it properly. Make sure the USB cable is fully plugged into the strikepack. Press it in all the way and reconnect.
Ehl Water same here, had no idea about all these awesome mods.
Thanks for explaining this. I wasn’t understanding how to choose the mods from the instructions, I only was able to figure out how to re-map.

@Formenus Zye Check your ps4 audio settings and your in game audio settings.
Try with another headset to see if it works. You can also contact Collective Minds by email and see what their support team has as a solution.
I don’t. First time I hear of someone having that issue.
It’s me again, I recently dropped my controller and the strike pack got hit but the light still comes on when it’s plugged in. I tried 2 different chargers and it won’t connect
How hard did you drop it ? Have you tried updating the strikepacks firmware ?
Frank Sparapani not that hard but I’m pretty sure the fall was hard enough to knock something loose
*how do I edit the firmware?
It’s possible. If it’s not the cable then it would either be the USB port on the strikepack or some internal component that is damaged.
Frank Sparapani that’s good to know ig, thanks for your help and fast replies. You’re awesome
Dude.. not to be over dramatic man but really , thank you so much man !!

@@FrankSparapani can I use the controller wirelessly after i put this on?
@@zenjch You can for sure use the paddles to shift gears.

@@FrankSparapani does It Work
on thumb buttons
Yes it does.
Makes video on playing rainbow six siege
Good video and I like how you showed us how to remap the back buttons while some channels only talk about the mods.
One thing Scuf can't do for their price is once it wears out you have to buy a new one and if you want another Scuf that is a bunch of money. The huge advantage with Strikepack is that if the controller wears out you can just replace the controller and save $100+.
Glad you enjoyed watching the video. The strikepack is still a great buy for the money. They now sell replacement paddles if you lose one and also sell a different style of paddle.

I have a question. If I have a USB headset do I need to use the wire for the headphone jack? Someone please help
You can use your headset USB or you can use it wired. Both ways work. Connect the strikepack first and then connect your headset which ever way you want.
Won’t the constant charging harm the battery?
It shouldn’t. PS4 controllers are designed to be played wired as well.

Awesome review I've been looking at scuff but after watching this just ordered one thnx for the great review
Glad you enjoyed the video !
you don`t use mods... but making a 22 min. vid about adjusting mods
Well yes, it’s a review video and I’m reviewing the product to the fullest. No point to do a half fast video.
Always somebody hating lmao
It’s typical. They have nothing better to do.
So you call me a hater then Sparapani? That comment wasn't meant to be a hate comment nor was it flaming or something. If you team up against someone so easily (in this case: me) without knowing the other one then you should close your comment section and reconsider your life as a youtuber.
I was writing something about your vid because it kinda makes no sense to review a product what you personally would never use.
Then you went personal by calling me a flamer by agreeing with the other person.
Have a nice day!
Lol. No one mentioned your name, called you any names or attacked you personally and no ones teaming up against you. So not sure where you are getting all this from. Enjoy your day and have fun gaming man.
Mine won’t work I’ve tried to change the right paddle to O but it won’t do anything:(
Make sure the USB cable is fully plugged into your strikepack. Press it in all the way and reconnect. Commonly that is the issue.
I've tried that to and read the manual, I still can't get mine to work.
Try using another USB cable to see if that is the issue.
Whenever i plug the cable in the strike pack ,i do not have to ask again which account i want to use ,but there is a battery symbol , controller symbol and a headset symbol ,why is that?
Headset symbol is good. Are you able to use the paddles ? If you can then your strikepack is connected properly.
@@FrankSparapani no i can do nothing
Your strikepack isn't connect properly. Make sure the usb cable is fully plugged into the strikepack and reconnect.
@@FrankSparapani i have plugged the usb cable full in with my full power but it will not light and dont works
Next I would try another usb cable just to be sure. Make sure you are plugging it directly into your ps4.
Amazing video. Thanks for straightforward and no-bullshit reviews
You are very welcome. Have fun gaming and hope to see you in my live streams.
I heard that they patched the mods on Black Ops 3 do u know if that is true? Or does everything on the controller work on BO3?
They only patched the jitter mod but all the other mods still work on BO3. Collective Minds is currently working on a firmware update for the Strikepack to get the jitter mod working again on BO3
So the update will automatically go to my controller? Also what are the other mods that I can use? BTW you just got a like, notification on, and a subscribe!
Thanks for the like, subscribe and turning notifications on. Welcome to my squad ! You are awesome. Thanks so much. Greatly appreciated.
There has already been a bunch of firmware updates released. In order to update the Strikepack you have to go to the Collective Minds website and download the update. It will tell you to plug in your Strikepack into your computer and then it updates automatically. Pretty quick and easy. There's also a configurator tool where you can plug in the Strikepack to your computer and use the configurator to apply the mods and fine tune settings. Pretty cool. I made a tutorial video on it. I also explain how to update it. Here it is: th-cam.com/video/3eRCH12HhVo/w-d-xo.html
There are a bunch of mods: rapid Fire, adjustable rapid fire, burst fire, pulse fire, anti- recoil, drop shot, quick scope, turbo, auto hold breath, auto spot, hair trigger and a few others. It's a pretty powerful device.
I'm thinking on it. Just looking at it I'd give it an 85/100. the necessary wiring isn't gonna bug me, ps4 controller is always plugged in for me. main question, do the triggers seem like you could accidentally pop em off while playing?
Good question man ! I have yet to have them pop off on me. I've been pretty rough with them as well and they have stayed in place and performed well. So you won't have a problem with them popping off. The magnets are pretty strong.
Frank Sparapani well, guess I'll get one sooner or later then. namely for the paddles. are all the mods simply macros, meaning can I use a rapid fire mod on games that don't have guns?
I bought it for the paddles only. I don't use mods. I haven't testing the mods on a game without guns so I don't know if the mods will still work.
Frank Sparapani I just bought one and im not sure how to hold it. Are you supposed to hold them with middle finger or ring finger. For me it feel like it should be ring finger but at the same time doesn't feel right.
With the way that I feel comfortable using the ps4 controller my ring finger lays perfectly over the paddles. Everyone is different and has different styles of play. I say the more you use the Strikepack you will get used to it and your fingers will naturally go to that position. but if you want me to pick a finger I will have to say ring finger lol.
Hey, question. I bought my strike pack several months ago and now it's randomly disconnecting. I will playing fortnite and this will be happening several times a game. Do you know a fix to this?
Sometimes the strikepack firmware just needs to be updated. Other times, which I have seen a few times, the USB cable needs to be changed. Try using another USB cable to see if it solves your issue.
Very late comment but 1) does it have to be plugged in to use only the paddles [no mods] and 2) can I use the strike pack on my scuff with the scuff paddles removed? [my left paddle on the scufs been acting up but I’d rather still use it for the other features it has]
There’s never a late comment so don’t worry about it lol. The strikepack is a wired device so it needs to be plugged in while using it even when using the paddles. I am not too sure I’d the strikepack will fit on a scuff controller. Sometimes a scuff controller isn’t even a PS4 controller design. If it is the same design, I think the mechanism to hold the paddles will interfere with the strikepack fitting on. I would have to do some research to see if it’s possible.
Frank Sparapani thank you so much for the response!!! If you ever find out that would be greatly appreciated. I’ve been using the 4ps infinity pro scuff, it’s just sad that the paddles aren’t made to last. Also happy holidays!!!
The back of the scuf controllers are shaped different to hold their paddles so I am fair confident that the strikepack won’t fit into the controller. Paddles on a scuf don’t last long. I would suggest getting stock controller and the strikepack, much better combo !! Happy holidays to you as well !!!
You deserve more subscribers

Let me know when your going live again and need help.
I’ll be live Saturday and Sunday.
I own this and the clip that goes onto the speaker is poorly made. It has three bumps that go into the speaker hole but they are plastic and wear down. This clip is supposed to help stabilize the strike pack so it does not move. It appears that you can remove the clip and replace it, however customer service says that they do not sell parts for replacement. This happened when the product was 1 month out of warranty. I can only hold it in place with a rubberband now. Be warned, as they do no sell replacement parts like the latch.
Been using the strikepack for over 3 years now and it’s still solid on my controller. I’ve had zero issue with the latch. It’s actually well made and secures the strikepack tightly onto the controller. Not too sure why you are experiencing that or how the latch would even wear out. Highly unlikely for that to happen. You are also the only person to say this so you might not be properly installing the strikepack. Thanks for the feedback though, greatly appreciated.
@@FrankSparapani The latch pegs are mainly the issues. They wore down so they no longer catch the microphone holes. The plastic seems to be a cheaper material. The strike pack works great otherwise. My main complaints are the cheaper material and poor design by having it latch into the microphone holes, as well with the poor customer service received by the company and the unwillingness on their end to send me a replacement latch, even when I offered to pay for it. My strike pack still works it just requires a rubberband to hold in place now which is rather annoying.
I’ve been using the strikepack for over three years with zero issues of the latch wearing out. Not too sure how they can wear out with normal use. How often are you taking off and putting back on your strikepack ? I’ve done it quite a few times and I still don’t see how they can wear out unless you physically sand them off lol or chew them lol.
When is this gonna be back in stock? I can't find it anywhere!
I posted links to GameStop USA and Canada in the description. Your best bet is to buy it online from GameStop or use their store locator to see which stores have it close to you. A few Walmart's have them as well. Hope you find it.
No I'm not from the USA or Canada. I'm from a small country in EU that doesn't have gamestop's and Walmart's.

@@FrankSparapani ok but I’m not having a great day
@@ItzzAction well think positive and things will be ok.
Awesome review! Just wondering if you wanted to use this product just for the paddles and stay legit in the game (COD: MW), would you program the paddles to double X and double O and press the paddles once each depending if you want to jump or prone, or would you program it to one X and one O and click the paddles twice? Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed the review. The paddles simply mimic the button that it’s assigned to. So remap just X and O once. in order to jump you just click the paddle that assigned to X, if you want to go prone just click the paddle assigned to O and if you want to slide just press the hold the O paddle.
Nice video bro. Appreciate the detail on the mods. I do have a question do you need a pc to add more mods and can i use a mac pro
Glad you enjoyed the video. You can only use a Mac to update the strikepack. If you want to use the Mod Pass mods which is the yearly subscription, you will need a PC to do that.

@@FrankSparapani forgot to ask. Can the strike pack work on and game like a 3rd person shooter or is it only for 1st person
Yes the strikepack works on 3rd person shooter games also.
This video convinced me to try this bad boy out! Thank you for this video! 🙏
Glad you enjoyed the video !
Well 3 years late, but Absolute amazing video, canr wait to use it, Thank you very much
It’s never to open late ! Glad you enjoyed the video. Have fun gaming and hope to see you in my live streams !
After I map the paddles to a button, can I unplug the thing and it will still work or no? Also three years later your still replying and you made this great video, I think that’s amazing.
The strikepack is a wired device so it’s needs to be connected to your console while using it. Glad you enjoyed the video and hell im replying to comments. I care about my community and the people watching my videos.
Frank Sparapani thanks
You are welcome.
I just bought mines today and When I turn it on the battery/headphone symbol doesn’t pop up. I can’t remap the paddles and hear anything when I plug in headphones. The lights on the striker logo is on though (white). Help!
Your strikepack isn’t connected properly. Make sure the USB cable is fully plugged into your strikepack. Press it in all the way and reconnect. Should solve your issue.

@@FrankSparapani I hope to be there
I hope so too !
Does it needs its software or not?? Btw i loved how u explained the whole thing❤️❤️..is it worth in the current year???
You can use it right out of the box. The strikepack is beyond worth t.
@@FrankSparapani well..maybe i will buy it..
Cool.
Bro thank you no one else’s vids worked aye
You are very welcome. Happy to help !
My strike pack just doesn't work, & when It finally gets picked up by my PS4, my controller randomly stops working, otherwise it just doesn't do anything... great video though, it is quite entertaining.
It's like it's selective about when it wants to actually work.
I’ve seen this issue before. It can be caused most likely by a faulty USB cable or maybe the USB port on the strikepack is faulty. I would suggest trying another USB cable to see if that corrects the issue.
@@FrankSparapani Thanks, but the thing is that I had just bought it just late last week from my local bestbuy, but I'll see if I can find another cord in my giant collection of spare's, lol.
I have a bunch that should fit, I should have one at least.
If you bought it at Best Buy then exchange the strikepack for a new one. You are still in the return period.
You do know that extra paddles is a mod right?
Mod means modification. Adding 2 extra triggers that can be set to any button is a modification. I’m not hating, I have this exact pack and I use it daily. Just don’t be naive and think because you’re not using the mod functions, that that doesn’t mean you’re not still modding. Food for thought. Great review.
Hey, glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for your feedback. Not naive at all. Generally when people thing of modding, they think of hacking and altering the source coding of a game which the strikepack doesn’t have the ability to do that. All pro players used paddled controllers and a few of these controller companies sponsor the competitions so remapable paddles are safe to you. It’s definitely a touchy situation. Have fun gaming and hope to see you in my live streams.
It is the best way to use the rest of the fingers. The next generation of videogames should make commands to use each finger
I agree completely.
Good review. I have some questions.
1: does it work with fortnite, r6, and cod?
2: how many mods can you have at once?
Glad you enjoyed the video. To answer your questions. Yes the strikepack works once all those games. You can have all 8 mod slots turned on at once if you really wanted to.
Frank Sparapani thank you, I will definitely be getting one now.
@@Josh.2 Awesome stuff !
What are mods? How do I use them? What do they do? Can I get banned in fortnite for using this? I’m only interested in using the paddles because this is way easier then buying an expensive scuff controller and it breaking in a few days
I explain and answer all your questions in the video. I’ve never seen anyone get banned for using mods but it’s always a possibility. I use the strikepack just for the paddles, it’s an amazing product and well worth. My strikepack is still going strong. Here’s an updated video: th-cam.com/video/DYXnsWm37_I/w-d-xo.html
Its definetely worth the price. U can even create short macros in just a few seconds WHILE playing. But after a few months it will start to disconnect randomly
The strikepack is beyond worth it. I’ve been using the strikepack for three years now and never had an issue with it disconnecting
