Unresponsive C-stick?

[WTFA54]

I'm posting this here because it says "other aspects relating directly to gameplay." and this relates directly to gameplay.

For some reason, when I'm playing brawl it often doesn't register commands on the c-stick. I don't mean they're delayed, they just simply don't happen. I went into the config mode and found that the game recognizes that the c-stick is being used, and when I'm on the menu I can use the c-stick to move it around, but when I'm actually brawling it'll often just not do anything. I currently use the default config with tap jump turned off, and I use the c-stick for smashes and airs. I mean, it took me a while to get using the c-stick to become second nature, and it kinda sucks that it suddenly started being screwy on me. I also never had this problem in melee. Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it?

At first I thought your c-stick might just be broken... But you say it works to tilt the screen around in the menus? o_O Huh, that's weird.

Does it still work for other games?

Well yea it works for SSBM, but I don't actually use it much in any other games.

You have to return the cstick to his neutral position before he recognizes any new inputs.

I mean I've done tests where I'm just standing there and i press down or something on the c-stick and nothing happens, or i just jump and try to do a nair and y'know, nada. I guess it's possible though when i'm not testing isolated incidents that i'm being too jittery and spamming to much with my c-stick?

Brawl doesn't register C-Stick actions as actual actions unless you actually move it from neutral to another position relatively quickly. Simply tilting it will do nothing.

 

[WTFA54]

thanks Ankoku. I was used to only having to tilt, so it was kinda inconsistent. I noticed it DOES occasionally recognize tilts, but not all the time.

I've recently had this same problem. The c-stick will work occasionally, but it mostly just won;t register my inputs. I bought a new controller and it works fine now though.

Also, do it with a different controller yours may be broken. (Like Meta Knight) lol

C-Stick has a gender? My c-stick can't move himself for anything...

On Topic: Yeah I've had this issue b4 but I was using a wireless controller.

Basicly' unplug your controller then, make sure your c-stick is neutral/in the middle, then plug it back in.

Simply put: reconnect your controller.

I have a similar but rather unusual problem with my gamecube controller. C-stick doesn't work at all and even reconnecting it or switching ports doesn't help but after i restart (not simply turning it off and on again) my gamecube or wii the controller works normally.
