Please register the Xbox One game controller to your Steam account:

1. Run Steam then switch in 'Big Picture Mode' (upper right).
2. Go to 'Settings' (upper right).
3. Click 'Controller Settings' under 'Controller'.
4. Click on the Xbox game controller under 'Detected Controllers:'.
5. Click the button 'REGISTER' (upper right).
6. Click the button 'Register to this account'.
7. Personnalize the game controller then click 'Submit'.
8. The controller is now registered to your Steam account.

Can you use your Xbox One controller now?

actually i cant use the right stick when playing, meaning i cannot move the camera even when following these steps, any more suggestions?

I have the same problem with an Xbox 1 Elite controller, the right stick does nothing so you are not able to move the view camera around.

I'd already done that before posting my last post, it didn't help at all.

Rebooting the PC after installing the game did seem to fix it though.
