Just keep playing. Once you get comfortable with them you'll wonder how you ever played MX games without them. They really do allow for much greater control of the bike than the standard one thumb stick design. You need to do most of your turning with the left stick and only lean with the right stick when you need to make a sharper turn.

I agree PIRATEorNINJA. While I enjoy Reflex, and have since it came tp PC in 2009, it still feels better to me using a single joystick when I fire up MX vs ATV Unleashed. The whips looks better to me in the older games like MCM2, MXU & MVA. Just my opinion, I'm not hating on dual stick controls, just wish we had a choice like "Classic Mode" or "Reflex Mode".

I've been able to get some pretty sick looking whips because of the dual stick =p
The game was pretty much built around the idea of controlling the bike and rider separetly so to add mode for single stick control would take away from that

Get used to it. I hate one stick controls now. It takes a while but once you do its ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awesome.

You don't really need to even use the reflex. I only use it on the whoops and freestyle, and the occasional whip. It's not required to corner in this game at all, hell you don't even need to use it to clear a quad.

Are we playing the same game ?

I know its possible to map both sticks to only one using xpadder, but you'd have to find a way to fine tune it because when i tested it out it was way too jumpy and uncontrollable

Pretty sure we are, lol. I don't map both to one stick, I just don't use the reflex all that much. It has very specific usage. Some people do alot better without it, some need it constantly. It just depends on how you play the game.

When I first started playing the game on the 360 (when it first came out), I tested a track with, and without the stick. And for me at least, I got alot better times with very minimal usage of it.

Interesting. Yeah, the way I ride it's hard to imagine not using the right stick because Im constantly using it the lean back for traction or outside for corning or scrubbing.

I started on 360 aswell. Got the demo the minute it was available and then countless hours online when the game released but using a single stick never did work out for me

The big deal about REFLEX, is the the REFLEX toggle (stick). You will never be good at REFELX without mastering all the uses of the REFLEX toggle.

If you want to corner fast...you must use it

The problem with the dual stick control is the game does a piss poor job explaining the intricacies of the system. I've been playing for about an hour now and I still can't control my rider for ♥♥♥♥. It seems like sometimes when I'm in the air the left stick controls my lean and rotation, other times it seems like my right stick controls it. Then there are times when I lean back hard for a jump and it goes just fine, other times I end up flipping backwards with just the slightest touch and then when I push forward on either stick the guy rotates forward so slowly I can't recover before I hit the ground. I usually grasp games with these kinds of multiple independant controls but this game is just frustrating the hell out of me. It feels like I can't replicate actions consistently at all. And I hav e been repeating jumps over and over trying every single combo of controls I can think of but nothing sees to react predictably.
