Controller Issues

[ReactiveFuture]

Hey, I recently started playing with a DS4 using input mapper, and the controls in this game are wrecked. The y axis on the l stick is flipped, and all the buttons are jumbled, like the right trigger opens the pause menu, and clicking the stick jumps. Worst of all, there's no way to fire. the game just does it without stopping. Does anyone else have these issues, or a potential fix? Thanks!

I bought this game to play it with the controller (PS4 controller using DS4 Windows). Now, everything is broken. For example, Pressing A (X on joystick), which is supposed to select an option takes me back instead and asks me if I want to quit the game.

Pressing forward moves my character backward and vice versa. Can't select a gun, he fires automatically. Can't aim!!! The whole thing is broken for controller setup!!

3 years later :) but still a response for anyone who can still use it.
Just bought this game to play with a controller, using a cheap controller with XOutput. This setup works well on several other games (Portal 2, Final Fantasy XIII) but with CoJ I experienced the same problems: randomly swapping forward/backward, firing when turning right, and suddenly button function swaps. But... I play this on a PC and a laptop with the same controller, where only the laptop is having this problem. On the PC all works fine.

Since it all looks like "something else" was interfearring with the controllers I finally found it to be fixed by playing around with Steam's controller settings. Here are mine:
Steam -> Menu "Steam" -> Settings -> Controller -> General controller settings
OFF: Guide button focuses Steam
ON: Turn off in big picture exit
OFF: PlayStation Configuration Support
ON: Xbox Configuration Support
OFF: Switch Pro Configuration support
ON: Generic Gamepad Configuration Support
I'm not exactly sure what setting did the trick and if the same works for everyone else, but since it's working now for me I bow to "if it ain't broken don't fix it" :)
Hope it helps.
