Solved
Joystick support! It was finally added!
The release notes failed to mention it, but I now am using my Logitech Extreme 3D pro again with my PC.

Hard to say what the issue could be.
What all have you tried?
Oh I've tried nine ways to Sunday and every config in the book. Logitech Extreme Pro. Steam launched game. Steam sees the stick, the PC sees the stick, game, big fat nothing....
@Echo6Echo I have to ask just in case, did you go into the Options and set it up? I haven’t found it to be plug and play, so if not the JS has nothing mapped. You probably did, I don’t know you eh? The mapping controls are not intuitive at all.

The mapping controls are not intuitive at all.So I use Steam for the game. Steam sees the stick and I can use the stick to navigate Steam. (I've done this with an X Box controller too) So Steam recognizes it and I've set the preferences in the Steam portal on 2042 to every option there is. When I launch the game, its shows that it's using the Steam config. In game, nothing. No input...going into controls for controller, joystick etc. and trying to setup the stick, nothing. I can't remap, etc. It's like the stick is not connected.
My keyboards and mice work just fine...
I cant fly in BF games with mnk to save me life, and flying with controller seems much slower (maybe its just me?). I am getting 2 Gladiator NXT EVO flight sticks (seriously cant wait) after xmas mainly for Star Citizen, has anyone the same sticks and do they work in 2042?
- @Spinner1981 I’ve been unable to get my X52 pro. The only JS that seems to work are simple ones like the Logitech 3D Pro. I have an old Wingman in the garage I may try, I can do ok with MnK in choppers but tend to auger straight in with jets!
- @Echo6Echo I don’t know your set up, so I’m spit ballin’ here, but I think you need to go into the 2042 Options themselves and set it up. Worth a shot if nothing else is working. The 2042 controls are poor at best and it seems clear it was an afterthought so don’t expect it to work the way it should, especially through Steam.
