Joystick Support
I'm considering pre-ordering as I have for past Battlefield games but wanted to know more about any details regarding support for joysticks. I find flying with them is much better but support for the...
I have tried my Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 joystick which has worked in all previous Battlefield games. It does not get recognized. Neither does my PS4 controller! It's driving me nuts. I tried emulating Xbox 360 controller with X360 and then with Xoutput which both work in various tests elsewhere but NOTHING is being registered within BF2042 via Origin.
I have to launch the game via STEAM of all things, where it properly emulates the controller for it to work. Like... why? I literally chose to buy the game VIA ORIGIN which gets you guys MORE MONEY lol
Because I didn't want to launch Steam to launch Origin to launch the game.
But now to get my joystick working I have to still launch Steam first. Which is craaaazy.
And I have less than 24 hours to refund the game and buy it on Steam if this is really how it's going to be. PLEASE tell me this is going to be fixed ☹️
I've got the exact same joystick, I also tried x360ce both the old and new version and it doesn't work.
How do you even launch the game via Steam?
