First I have heard someone speak well of it. So it plays like if you are using a Power A control maybe? Just smooths out the PCI? Doesnt sound to handy to me as the PlayStation was always smooth anyways. And the Xbox with power A plays great.
Not sure if you ever play Apex but it’s an absolute joke just the anti recoil turbo fire. You can just take the R99 and it shoots dead center with no recoil.
Slap it on a spitfire and snipe people.

I have a Power A and it’s much more beneficial than what a Power A does for hitting. But yeah, similar for pitching. Seems even easier to trace the pitches somehow. Like you would have to try to not make it green.
Hummm. Doesnt sound worth a hundred bucks. Maybe good for other games? Doesnt seem fun though. Except maybe playing around with it for a week, then return it lol.
Yeah it’s not far off from using joystick rings, rubber bands, Kontrol freeks, etc….still you can feel the difference.
I mean if dudes spend 2 grand to lock for randy Johnson the first day I’m sure they probably dropped 100 dollars on one of these and took an hour to learn how to work it.

So you have to have a pc to use the zen on a ps5?

Yeah the pc is on running the device while it is also has the console and controller plugged into it. You can Bluetooth the controller but I haven’t gotten that far into it yet to test it.

It’s like a little control station program where you load the files that mod the controller and there is a pop up window that shows what is happening, but that is over my head.

Sweet. Not worth it, being a life long 750 player isn't that bad I guess lol

Seems overwhelming when you first start it but it’s easy once you get through everything and they have good instructions. Effortless once it’s set up.

It’s not really worth it honestly unless you want to gain steaming clout or something I guess. People are out there looking for every possible advantage and this certainly qualifies.
Apex is a good example. Even if you have anti recoil aim assist it doesn’t play the game for you. You can still get shot in the back or outsmarted.

You seemed relatively interested, so I figured I’d give you a few takeaways from testing it out for a couple days.
There is actually a tournament mode….supposedly gives you an extra frame advantage over those who are not using it.
I’d describe the anti-recoil aim assist as it takes away the flimsiness of the pci…for instance when aiming your pitch on the corner with the left stick it can be annoying to stop it on the exact corner. With the Cronus it just stays where you want it. It’s helpful while hitting, but not a crazy advantage. Kind of nice for pitching…not really an advantage.
I honestly think the biggest advantage is the hair trigger/rapid fire. In my opinion it changes the behavior of the button press for swinging quite a bit. Seems like you can get your swing off quicker and also check swing more easily. If you have played a check swing master they may have been using the Cronus or another back or controller mode for this function.

I also misspoke…you don’t need to have it connected to a PC. You can load eight mod packs or whatever they are called and be set.

Im gonna be the "get off my lawn" guy here and say Jesus i miss the days of people relying on their own reflexes and skill in online games. People so afraid to take an L to a nameless, faceless stranger online.
