Omega upgrade farming PS4

I mostly play on PC, farming Omega upgrades is pretty easy on PC I can get 2600-2700 score pretty much every go as long as I can stop myself falling asleep as I'm doing it. I didn't do any farming this year simply because its such a tedious and boring thing to do and requires a huge amount farmed for very little reward.

I play casual on PS4 and decided to farm a few omegas to help boost things a bit my couple of toons just run MK XII VR I've never farmed hard enough to actually use the upgrade system.

But the omega event is darn near impossible, getting over 1000 points per farm is fricken hard. not only is it impossible to do the event properly with a controller but there is a bug when a speed up happens the stream jumps forward and you miss particles even though you had them lined up.

Am I missing something or does this seem to me this makes the event utterly pointless? without getting a high score I'm only earning a couple of the lowest common components and none of the uncommon ones so works out less than half the materials you get from a high score.

This event like everything I guess was designed to be done with a mouse but with a little effort surely they could have made it so a button will jump the capture to a particular lane so the event could actually be done?
