Playing Destiny on Xbone (Part 2)... (Destiny)

I can't seem to get the hang of the controls.

-Anyone that went from playing it on the 360 to the One, or who jumps from PS4 to One, do you notice any oddness in looking around? For me it feels momentarily sluggish combined with a slight acceleration once I hold it down all the way. Makes my movements jerkier than they should be (and I have a bit of a tough time switching quickly between enemies). This didn't happen to me on the 360 version.

- The bumpers. Oh God, the Bumpers... I'd say that I successfully pull off a super about 30% of the time that I hit them (usually I just throw a grenade or melee instead). I tried using other schemes (I usually go Puppeteer), but all of them assign a vital move to the bumpers, which kills me. I've tried getting used to the stiffness by using them "as intended", but that just makes me end up looking down, usually botching anything (grenade, melee, Super). How did you guys get around that?

-Having to use my left thumb to pull up my ghost/sparrow is really annoying, but I know that nothing can be done about that; minor nitpick. Do you other PS folk feel the same way, or wat?

"Crush the blacks!" seems to be Microsoft's philosophy on contrast and brightness, and I'm perfectly fine with that. I always play on a lower brightness setting, and I actually like the cartoony coloration that the Xbone gives Destiny (Juicy, you could say).

Also, anyone use third-party controllers for the Xbone? Any that you would recommend?
