XBox-Controller issue with deadzone
Is it just me or is the deadzone on a XBox-Conroller very big in this game?

It's huge. Had to use ReWASD to create an anti-deadzone. Can also do the same with SteamInput.

Good to know. I will try the steam-input-solution. I hope this problem will be addressed an a patch nevertheless.

Steamimput doesn't work. I can confirm (in my case). I don't have an official Xbox controller but it's a 3rd party GOOD one from MSI. Windows recognise it as Xbox and Steam also. Never had a problem with any game or needed 3rd party software in order to calibrate it. This is actually a really big mess...

ReWASD it's not freeware, right? They also say Ds4 works too. But really...i'm very anti downloading 3rd party softare in order to "fix" someone else mess...

It's insane, almost impossible to predict aiming. Somehow I still manage to survive on the hardest difficulty, it's not that tricky of a game after all..

I have the Xbox Elite Series 2 Controller, and the deadzone is ....
The Setting ingame does nothing, and i dont use 3rd party Software to fix this.

I was also getting an absurd deadzone using my official xbox controller. Literally made the game unplayable. Adjusting anti-deadzone in steam input did the trick for me. It all feels far more responsive now.

Same thing with the dualsense 5, enabling steam input has huuuge deadzones, unplayable. Disabling steam input (the game warns you about this) deadzones are normal.

Same here. Steam Input didn't help. Win 10 Xbox One controller

same here. Xbox Ellie series 2, unplayable with the deadzone. Tried various steam controller settings including anti-deadzone. Not good enough

Same. I reported this when I posted my initial review for this release and it still hasn't been addressed or even acknowledged. Deadzones feel perfectly fine on the PS5 version, but PC version feels wrong.

Tested using a Dualsense Edge, Dualsense, and Xbox Elite S2 Controller. Same issue across the board. Have only used with steam input disabled (I believe it is recommended that this feature be disabled, not enabled).

Not sure if this is what you are talking about but in the 1.02.0 update the Devs posted:

Fixed an issue where DualSense and Xbox One controllers’ analog sticks failed to respond

I'm using a Dual Sense controller and still have a giant deadzone. I'm refunding over this.

I didn't know what the issue was but I knew I enjoyed the game more with the dualsense. Something just didn't feel right with the xbox controller.

Still nothing? This is barely playable with the deadzones...

MAN I JUST GOT THIS GAME. using official xbox wireless controller, deadzone is HUGE. I can't stand it, camera so jerky, might refund but probably not, game is only 36 dollars now, and FSR3 looks PERFECT in it on the 7900xtx. WOW. Hope there is a fix Devs.
