Diagonal movement forces walking? [Solved]

[Hope]

Having an issue using an Xbox One controller, where moving in a diagonal motion will force me to walk, instead of moving in that direction in full speed. It makes movement incredibly janky and not smooth at all. It's also causing me to get ambushed by enemies, because I can't run away fast enough.

Anyone have a fix?

Edit: To solve this issue, It took a bit of what Stally recommended. Firstly I had to use the Windows controller calibration tool and completely re-calibrate the controller. After that, I used big picture mode, and in controller options set the "Outer ring binding radius" much lower. This way, it takes much less of a push to trigger the run. These two things makes movement MUCH better.

Same problem with logitech rumblepad F510. Noticed that when I switch movement to dpad the diagonal movement works, but thats just bad.

With your controller plugged in. Go into Big Picture Mode, Game Library and then the game and go to the controller settings go to the analog sticks and play with the deadzone settings. This is usually the problems I have with some games that make diagonal directions walk with analog sticks.

I have created a public controller configuration that solves the diagonal issue and the deadzone issue. It makes no changes other than to the left joystick's advanced settings.

This may be useful as a baseline.

You get the same issue using the DS4 natively as well, the fix for me is using DS4Windows. Had the exact same issue with the first game too
