Controls need to get fixed.

As other people have pointed out in reviews, the controller works fine in the menus. When the actual race starts, only the keyboard works. I'll hold on to it for a few days to see if it gets a patch before refunding.

I played a few rounds of single player with no issues whatsoever using an Xbox 360 gamepad, but as soon as I tried an online race, I had this issue (only keyboard was recognized in game). Super weird.

For me I noticed it had to do with having two controllers plugged in at once. Once I unplugged both then replugged them, it assigned the right controller as my primary and I could play the game as normal.

It's baffling how these game developers can release a game without testing the most basic functions first.

I'm using an Xbox one controller that works fine in AT, but in manual the gear changes don't work. The bumper buttons work fine in the menus though. Just weird how they can bugger that up.

Oh and you can't leave MP lobbies.

That fixed it thanks Solid! Unplugging my other controllers let my Hori Apex work with the game. Sweet!

This exact same issue for me.

Okay, I concur with this thread. My controller keeps randomly cutting out in online matches.

Dualshock 4 doesn't work during the actual race but it does in the menus.

Nothing mentioned has helped me.

I have a second input device that even though I've attempted to disable its drivers, it apparently still gets detected by the game and takes over once in a race.

Weirdly, the keyboard can override it, but not my Xbox gamepad...

Controller work only on steam version

Dualshock 4 controller does work in the menus, it skips everyother option, button inputs are switched. Once in the race the controls are all backwards as well, right trigger pauses the race and reverse does not work.

I find my Dualshock 4 works fine in races, but every now and then it'll disconnect. No clue if that's on my end or the game's, seeing as my controller's wire is kinda finicky and I've had issues with it disconnecting in the past, but half the time this causes it to start skipping options in the menu for some reason. Which means that when I'm prompted to either return to the main menu or continue what I'm doing when my controller reconnects, I literally cannot select continue without resorting to my mouse.

No problems online or single-player with XBOX One controller and the XB1 cordless adapter.

I have XBOX One controller and it doesn't work anywhere. If the Options-Controller I can use Tab key to switch between keyboard and gamepad but when with tab I highlight gamepad the return key doesn't have no effect, so I hit Esc to go back to the previous menu, and when I come back into Controller setting , of course it is still set to keyboard.

Just the few seconds I spent trying to run the course with the keyboard, the graphics and everything give e the feeling that Horizon Chase Turbo is far superior. But that is first impression. Of course I have to play it more to be fair.

I have issues with dualshock 4 too, in races the right trigger pauses the game :(
