The camera control is bad?
Just checking into this before a refund, it's unplayable with ds4. Tried playing with settings but everything was bad, the sensitivity is so slow and weird feeling.

If I move the camera right to left on PC there's a delay between me switching directions, there's a tiny delay if not NONE on Xbox One. Thankfully I play with kb/m but that's a bummer for controller players.

Are you referring to how the camera seems to snap to vertical and horizontal axes? If so, try the following solution. It worked for me.

1. Click on Sunset Overdrive
2. Go to Controller Configurations below the Play button
3. Click on Joystick Movie (LS CLICK)
4. Click on Additional Settings
5. Switch Deadzone shape from Cross to Circle
6. Repeat for (RS CLICK)

nah that did nothing. The problem is, it takes a sec for the camera to pick up speed, and then the camera is juddery if spinning in circles, feels very unplayable and bad. I remember it being smooth and snappy on xbox when i tried it.

Maybe there's something you can change in the config? I don't know honestly.

I tried playing with everything, not really sure, never really played any port with such a bad camera that it felt unplayable. I guess i'll wait for a mod or a patch (patch probably won't happen) Refunded for now, i'll pick it up if I ever see theres a fix for it though. Sad they didn't release a better port.

Try DS4Windows and make sure to fully close and stop the steam process via task manager. Doing that fixes most issues I have with controller support on most games, though I haven't tried on SO yet...

It's the game.

Oh, I already refunded, but I forgot to try something if anyone wants to test if it fixes anything.

Right click, properties, steam input per game forced off.

There is some weird acceleration / delay with a controller yes.
The game plays way better with keyboard and mouse though and I really recommend trying it that way. I know it seems like it would play better with a controller because of the character movements, but I felt way too limited when I tried it like that, I then changed to keyboard and mouse and couldn't go back. Everything is much more fluid, fast paced, more dynamic, and aiming is of course better.

I do want to play it, but I'm just really a controller main and don't really touch kbm anymore sadly. played perfectly fine on xbox from what i remember, hopefully they patch it someday or it gets a mod... Usually devs get the kbm wrong and the controller right lol.
