Controller Support
Has anyone tried using a controller for the game in Steam it says the game has full controller support, the Origin version works fine until you get to the scenes where you have to press a certain key eg: the first level in the train when the terrorist tries to stab you and also jumping along the side of the train carriage. Controller key does not function and you then have to use keyboard once you have completed that small section controller works fine until next time a specific scene comes up

I worked around this by binding RT to Left Mouse Click, and X button as E on the keyboard, as well as A button as Spacebar (make sure you add these as separate activators, so one button outputs both)

Not sure if this is still the case, but BF3 has one TERRIBLE feature with controllers where you have to hold down the left stick to sprint instead of pressing it once.

Given how much you have to sprint in this game, it boggles my mind that it's a control scheme that made it into the final game

Not a deal breaker for me, if they let me sprint for too long I'd be eating bullets more than taking cover.

This game made me give up controller tbh, you may want to have a keyboard nearby to press the QTE keys. A wireless keyboard and mouse would be really useful.
