Controller Support?
So I was quick and already downloaded the game and played a bit, only to find out that my controller isn't working in this game, even though according to Store Page it should have "full controller support".

Is it because I'm using Razer Sabertooth and not the traditional Xbox 360 controller? KB & Mouse works fine though..

Yeah, my doesn't appear to be working either, X1 controller, and there doesn't appear to be anything in the options menu.

Same here, I also have an Xbox One controller plugged in directly through usb. I can manually assign the buttons in the key settings, but that doesn't fix it for the menus.

I have a wireless Xbox 360 controller and it works perfectly, the controls are pretty smooth.

I fixed it by alt tabbing out and in again.

My Logitech F510 (on GNU/Linux) doesn't work either. Not fixable by alt-tabbing either.

It says this on the console though:
/dev/input/js0: driver version: 2.1.0 (20100) /dev/input/js0: fd 8, buttons 11, axes 8, name Generic X-Box pad /dev/input/js0: axis 0: raw 0, mapped 0.000000 /dev/input/js0: axis 1: raw -2, mapped 0.000000 /dev/input/js0: axis 2: raw -32767, mapped 0.000000 /dev/input/js0: axis 3: raw 0, mapped 0.000000 /dev/input/js0: axis 4: raw -2, mapped 0.000000 /dev/input/js0: axis 5: raw -32767, mapped 0.000000 /dev/input/js0: axis 6: raw 0, mapped 0.000000 /dev/input/js0: axis 7: raw 0, mapped 0.000000

Throw your trash controllers to garbage. Buy normal M$ 360 controller and forget about any problems with controllers.

It's also not working with official Xbox One controllers (at least in my case), so that only solves it for some.

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, the controller's not working. This is very, very sad, because my keyboard's zapped.

PS. Please fix Logitech F-series controllers on Windows or make it possible to completely remap the controls, as in Dreamfall: the longest journey. I was able to get the controller working with all the actions remapped to it, but there is no way to remap looking around, so you would have to look around with a mouse and use controller for everything else, which is not good at all.
Also, a "reset to deafults" button in the controls options would be nice. I have no idea what the controls were before i remapped them.

Devs - please fix Logitech F-series controllers on Linux. Thank you.

And suffer the worst d-pad in gaming history and a gimpy stick layout? No thanks.

I just did some testing...

Along with the wired Xbox One controller, I also have a wireless 360 controller, which does work in-game. A strange side-effect, is that with the wireless 360 controller on, the game finally recognized my wired Xbox One controller.

I turned off the 360 controller and my Xbox One controller is still working, even after I exited and entered the game again. Strange, I hope they come up with a permanent fix.

I have a Logitech controller also, doesn't work. :( So much for "full controller support"... after all, it's the Logitech controller pictured in all the Big Picture ads. It's odd, too... the Logitech controller basically emulates an X360 controller AFAIK.

Follow-up: The trick posted above worked for me. I have an old wired X360 controller. I plugged it in and it worked. Now I'm able to use my wireless Logitech controller, even after re-starting the game. Some weird bug! I guess if you don't have an X360 controller lying around, you're sucking wind.
