Xbox 360 Controller not working (SOLVED)
Well as in the title, I bought the game, went through the trouble and downloaded 65GB and then the game wont do anything with my controller. I have a Wired Microsoft XBOX 360 Controller. When I use the controller, the complete buttonlayout changes into the ones for the controller but thats everything this game will do. I cannot control anything, not even the menu neither anything ingame. LAST COMMENT IS FROM ME AND I WAS TRYING TO TELL YOU GUYS WHAT FIXED IT FOR ME!

Alright thanks YamaKami and I wouldnt even be bothered that much, if there wouldnt be that dammed mouse acceleration wich you cannot turn off

Playing on xbox one controller with zero issues. Maybe it doesnt support the 360 version? I hope it gets fixed!

WB console ports are my main reason for having a game pad at all. The combat system caters to thumb sticks IMO. There are other titles they work best on. but again it's because of console ports or old skool console esk throwbacks.

Playing with a 360 Controller and getting random black screens with "No valid input" messages. Dont know if its connected.

Apart from that the controller is working fine.

Are you trying to use wired or bluetooth? I am using wired, i just plug and play. Is there something in settings that maybe you need to switch over? I plug my controller in before game launch so its ready to use from the main menu.

^same (certainly needs to be plugged in prior to launching any game too)

Will be interesting to see if mine works fine as I expect it will...

mine is wireless but i use the cable that it comes with. i never have a problem with my controllers before so it has something to do with this game. i plug it in b4 i turn the game on and i cant do nothing it ask to press A, i cant even do that.

It could also be hardware that is the problem. Most things work as advertised until they do not.
