Title: Minecraft for the PS3 question
Post by: Captain Jigglypuff on February 08, 2015, 10:49
I just bought Minecraft for the PS3 and I started to kill a pig when the game suddenly kept making my arm attack and destroy stuff constantly without my hand touching the trigger button. I think this is a glitch. I don't know as this was my very first time playing the game. My question is this: Is the game always this glitchy and is what happened to me common? I had to stop my game because I couldn't do very much with my auto destroy issue.

I've never seen any glitches in it, and my brother plays it pretty much all day every day and I've never heard him complaining about glitches so it was prolly either a one off thing or a recent patch has put it in. I've had a similar event in LBP though, turned out it was down to the controller being having a bit of a gammy trigger, so could possibly be that.

What's a gammy trigger? I don't understand.

Just one that doesn't work properly, like if you press it it sometimes appears to return back to normal but it stays slightly down so the game thinks it's still held down - it's as if the triggers sticky.

Great. Now I have ANOTHER broken PS3 controller! That makes me upset as I had to sell TWO games I literally bought days before just to get a new controller because my first one quit working on me and I can't afford ANOTHER controller unless I sell this game. This is annoying.

dude don't sell your game just yet


sometimes this stuff can be fixed by kind of gently easing the button around and making sure there's nothing actually sticking it down.  or you could just keep smooshing it down and up until it seems like it's unstuck.  i don't know ps3 controllers so obvs i could be wrong but i know ones like it and until you know more it doesn't seem like it's worth selling your game over


+it sounds like this controller is new so it should be under warranty still and if it's faulty you should be able to refund and exchange it without having to pay for anything

^I had to sell some games to get this controller. My first PS3 controller wasn't turning on or even reacting to buttons being pressed. I mean even the light wasn't coming on.

Was it plugged into the PS3?

It was wireless. At first I thought the battery had run out and plugged it into the system to charge but a day later it still didn't respond. I bought another controller though so now I have two that work and one broken controller.
