Controllers not recognised, unplayable.

[Glyn GOOLD]

Game not picking up any controllers other than keyboard, no options in settings to configure other controllers. Also menus scroll to bottom then get stuck. Anybody else?

Same....I have a Saitek GamePad/Controller which windows control panel shows as working fine.......yet within the game it doesn't seem to recognize controller and forces me to use keyboard (horrible for in-game play)

Sometimes my computer does not read the controller. I have to unplug the cable from the USB port and plug it again. I also have to set up the game controllers by typing 'set up game controllers' in the search box beside the windows icon at the bottom of the screen. hope that helps.

Xbox or ps5 controller works fine.

how are you setup? put the steam stuff off? wired or what?

both Xbox Elite Series 2 and my Scuf PS5 Reflex Pro - but both are acting wonky in some of the menus so far. PS5 controller wants to always reset to the left most option in the store when going through it. Xbox controller seems to work fine but will skip around like crazy sometimes. Both controllers work fine in other games, testing inside of Big Picture mode show they're working and not inputting phantom commands due to damage or extended use. Just happens when in the menus of the game. Really odd. Going to try both controllers in the game and see if they keep exhibiting odd behavior. If they do? I'll be refunding.

Quick update - thought it was the Scuf controller and it's not. For some reason the game thinks I have a PS5 controller AND an Xbox controller plugged in simultaneously. I've gone into Device Manager and fully disabled the Razer Keyboard as a 360 Controller, turned off both the Steam and EA overlays, fully removed all Xbox controller support from Steam, and the game CONTINUES to think I have both a PS5 and an Xbox controller plugged in at the same time and just freaks the controls out completely.

Windows sees the ONE controller plugged in under set up USB controllers and Device Manager. So not sure where the game is thinking its seeing an Xbox controller from. And all the PlayStation button icons are there, but the moment I press a button on the controller for a split second all the Xbox button icons show up and the controls go haywire.

Looking like this is going to be a refund. What a pain.



Last update I think - looks like disabling steam input fixed it. It's no longer flashing the Xbox controller icons when pressing any input on the PS5 controller. It should not be like this...

I have an xbox controller and have the same issue as @RiseFM. Have tried disabling steam input but no good still. Erratic controller and game behaviour in game and menus too.

Same issue thinks I have an xbox controller and a ps5 controller , it switches back an forth, and many other problems , and the ui is hopeless at this stage. I hope everyone understands this is the final version of the game for launch. This game is a year out, like all EA game launches.
