what controller are you using?
@EA_Atic I'm using a scuf impact and my key bindings are completely incorrect and unusable. I also cannot rebind them. Works perfectly on other games.
@EA_AticI got a new generic Xbox controller. Ive gone in and unbound every single button on my controller and it still doesnt work correctly. B and A is looking up and down. Up and down on my right stick is turn left and right. My rb button is weapon swap.
I've attached a picture of my keybinds. When I click B on my controller the input it takes for the keybind is dpad up for example. A is dpad left and Y is dpad down
@EA_Atic I have done a bit of research on this so far, and from my understanding, there are multiple issues with controllers and or devices such as joysticks, etc.
There are 3 main issues I've seen, the first is where most of an Xbox controller's functions do not work and they are unable to be rebound inside the menu.
The second issue is for PlayStation, where it does not look like the controllers are supported (show's Xbox controls in-game) the button maps are completely scrambled (Circle is escape), and you are stuck looking at the ground or sky and are unable to rebind any of the keybinds in the menu.
The third issue is sometimes extra peripherals can be giving false inputs causing players to spin in circles shooting or cannot controller their character without disconnecting all peripherals. (Don't have much evidence on this issue, only have seen once or twice)
I am personally using a PS5 controller, I was able to use DS4windows, which is a third-party application, for the beta completely fine. I have tried turning it off, using no controller support and running the game through Origin, running the game through Steam and using their controller support, emulating an Xbox controller through DS4windows, using the play config files from the beta for the live game, unplugging everything but my controller, and trying to remap buttons in the game (detects L2 as up on the joystick, and the joystick as a button so its not possible to do).

Made my own thread for posterity but bumping this one up.
No input whatsoever from my Xbox One controller plugged directly into MOBO.
I tried toggling "Enable Steam Input" in the controller properties sub menu on the steam page but that just caused a title screen crash. I tried setting it to "Disable Steam Input" per a reddit suggestion and still wasn't getting input (ofc). The game only launches with Disable Steam Input or Default toggled in the controller override menu - but with no controller support.
It's absolutely insane to me that this game has released so fundamentally broken.
So far I’ve been able to add origin to steam open origin through steam and launch battlefield and controller works fine. Scuff impact on Bluetooth through steam using ds4
So I’ve had this issue since the beta as well. Xbox nor PlayStation controllers will work on my desktop. I tried every single solution still will not work. However on my gaming laptop all my controllers worked perfectly fine for battlefield 2042. I have no idea what the issue is
I downloaded this driver and my Xbox One controller is working now.
I have tried it and my xbox one pc controller keeps crashing :-(

@EA_AticI am using an Xbox Controller From the Xbox Accessories App, the controller has the Firmware ver. 2.3.2381.0 it is a Xbox one Controller from 2013. However, it works on BF5 and Call of Duty with no issues. I do have an wireless apdapter, and I have also tried to use the USB hookup method. It acts like its not reading the controller.
