Am Xbox-One-Controller gibt es bekanntlich kleine Rumble-Motoren für die Trigger – zusätzlich zu den Rumble-Motoren für den gesamten Controller. Diese „Impulse Trigger“ sollen für ein besseres haptisches Feedback sorgen. Wie dieses Feature bei Forza Motorsport 5 eingesetzt wird, dies stellen Larry Hryb (Major Nelson) und Dan Greenawalt von Turn 10 vor:
„Xbox One’s Wireless Controller sports four vibration motors – a small one behind each trigger that adds precise haptic feedback to the fingertips, and a larger in each grip for large scale rumbles. This gives users a sense of in-game directionality and depth, creating rich, immersive experiences where gunshots, car crashes and explosions can come to life.
For example, in ‚Forza Motorsport 5‘, Turn 10 Studios is using impulse triggers to provide players with precise feedback that enhances the racing experience. If your tires break traction from over-acceleration or if you drift on the gas pedal, the triggers emit very distinct vibrations. This is combined with the chassis rumble that conveys impacts, engine roar and driving over surface irregularities like cobblestone.“
