Cyclone stuttering when transitioning to moving on PC while using controller
|
I decided to try out my CoC FR build using a controller tonight and I ran into a weird issue that I verified is not build related.
Using keyboard and mouse, I can hold down left click to be moving my character, and then start cycloning by holding down Q. When I let go of Q to start moving fast again, my character fluidly goes from the cyclone animation to running. Using the same character, on two different controllers, I can start moving by holding the left stick in the direction I want to go and then I hold down A to start cycloning. As soon as I let go of A to start running again, my character has a brief stutter as it goes from cyclone to running. Is this a known issue with controller on PC? I've seen people cyclone on consoles with no stutter after they stop cycloning and go to moving. I've also verified that it isn't a stick drift issue through the windows input properties, but just incase I set a massive deadzone to eliminate that as in the issue in game, and still the same stutter.

As another point, I tested the same situation on my whispering ice build that uses the 150% base movement speed boots. With keyboard and mouse, cyclone and movement are the same speed as expected, with no delay or pause between cyclone and walking.
With the controller, I have the same issue of once I stop cycloning, my character pauses for a second before moving in the same direction even with the same movement speed of cyclone/run. |

Hi, I have the same problem. It makes cycloning on controller feel really bad. Did you ever find a solution to this?

Same problem for me, I was testing league starters for next league and cyclone on controller feels bad with that stutter. Tried different video settings, it's no it.

There are videos showing this case.
First on mouse and keyboard, there is issues: https://streamable.com/hsf9b7 With controller there is stutter everytime I stop use cyclone. I just move with left joystick use cyclone with B, nothing else: https://streamable.com/zktonz |

I'm running into this issue now, and it's really disheartening to see that problems reported back in 2023 still haven’t been addressed — especially something so closely tied to accessibility.
Due to increasing wrist pain, I was looking for a comfortable, controller-friendly build this league and thought Cyclone would be perfect. While this isn’t game-breaking, it completely disrupts the smooth, continuous spin-to-win gameplay that makes Cyclone feel so great. Please take a look at this, GGG — it feels like such low-hanging fruit to fix. |
