Controller deadzone is enormous

Just picked this game back up after a couple years and I've only noticed one issue, but it really makes the game reek trying to deal with it:

The controller deadzone is absolutely gargantuan, so big it has to be a bug, no way by design. My stick's at almost 50% lock before I get any output, which makes anything high precision next to impossible.

This is the world's easiest bug to fix though, just add a deadzone slider.

I know this is a bug because the deadzone on iOS is perfect.

Pictured: how far I have to push the stick before it registers movement.

And before someone jumps in with "just change the look sensitivity smh" you need to realize that look sensitivity only affects the maximum rotational velocity of your view, and does not at all alter deadzone.

Please update the Affected Versions field if this is still an issue.

We seem to have more people reporting that the deadzone on XBox One is too small or non-existent (MCPE-27451). Do you think there could be a hardware issue or setting that is impacting your controller performance in Minecraft?

This is not a hardware issue. All four of my controllers exhibit the same issue in Minecraft, and all four controllers work properly in other games. I've tested my controllers stick drift/deadzones already through the Xbox Accessories app and they are working as intended.

I can say that this issue for me is specific to Xbox One. Running the same version, Minecraft on my phone (iOS) has a much more reasonable deadzone with my Xbox One controller. (Although a deadzone slider would still be nice to have.)

Huh, so this is not a duplicate. Okay then.

@@unknown No, it's reporting the exact opposite issue of MCPE-27451.
