    @nortyparkz If its a DS4 controller, try this fix that someone suggested in a different thread

    I got my DS4 working! Use DS4windows, select "Hide DS4 controller" in settings and also select to emulate Xbox 360 controller in profiles under the "other" tab.

    I am able to make my DS4 controller work IF I launch Origin via Steam to play Battlefield. I do not own Battlefield within Steam so this is not a very fun work around. 

    However it still does not recognize my joystick inputs. I've tried everything I can think off, including emulating the joystick with X360 or Xoutput but it is completely ignored. I wonder if this is to do with EasyAntiCheat ☹️

    Has anyone been able to get the game to work with joystick if bought and launched via Steam?

    None of my PS4 controller inputs register. Everything is either inverted or does not work. Sucks pre-ordering the gold edition and can't even play before or after the launch. I bought the game on origin, and tried the launch through steam method, however that did not work either.
