Controller not working

[TOKC1998]

No matter what I do or what settings I change the game refuses to accept any input from any of my controllers.

I was having issues with controller recognition yesterday too after getting it - seems very fiddly. For one it only seems to recognize the first controller in your stack as the main "playable" controller (at least from what I could tell) - so make sure everything is unplugged/disconnected. It also wouldn't accept my stadia controller no matter what I did with steam input - so I used an external mapper to make it think I was using an xbox controller and the game suddenly recognized it. This is the only game I've had to do this for - no idea why it's like this. I wish you luck!

It doesn't help this game's controller settings don't properly translate to and from your controller and steam input settings as well (I've tried both with steam input on and off). If I want to use my "Y" ability (the left one) I have to hold the button and then press both my left and down ability buttons and pray I don't activate my down ability.

They really did not give a crap about porting this and making the controls remotely coherent. I've spent hours trying to make sense of the control configs and it's as perfect as I could get it. Half the time, the left ability button would activity the right ability, the right ability would activate the top ability, top ability would activate the bottom ability.

But I got it all working comfortably and sensible for myself EXCEPT my left ability requiring TWO ability buttons being held and there's NOTHING I can do to fix it properly without making another disaster out of my ability buttons.

The control customization in-game is useless and doesn't even have the majority of buttons you can and have to use for controller input, let alone in general.

I just picked this up, went in to controller settings, and discovered that RB/R1 and LS press/L3 can't be assigned to binds.

Is there any sane, non-paint-thinner-huffing reason for this?

Has there been any solution? This game just won't accept my controller, regardless of what i do. Neither Big Picture mode nor disabling or enabling steam input, switching controller settings, whatever, works. I never had this before on any game. Is this related to the stupid epic games linking (which doesn't work either).

Edit: Got if fixed, on my PC, an old controller was still listed in my bluetooth settings and the game thought it fit to use that controller as the current one (despite not even being connected). As soon as i kicked that off the list, it worked. Very odd port indeed.
