Same issue here with both an Xbox Elite Series 2 and a Dualsense 5.
Playing via Steam.
Fixes attempted:
Updated Elite Series 2 firmware via Xbox Accessories application on Win10
Connected via USB
Connected via Bluetooth
Disabled Steam controller support
Enabled Xbox controller support in Big Picture (Also attempted this with Playstation controller support with the Dualsense 5)
Enabled Xbox extended feature support in Big Picture
Connected controller prior to booting PC
Connected controller after booting PC but prior to launching BF2042
Connected controller after launching BF2042
Connected controller mid-match
During each and every attempt I simply get zero input from the controllers. I saw some people reporting randomized inputs but I can't get either of my controllers to do anything at all. During the beta I had a regular XBone controller that worked except the controller itself had a bigger issue and I had to get rid of it, and I replaced it with the Elite Series 2 which never worked at all for the beta but works flawlessly for any other PC game I try to use it with. I've double and triple checked both controllers are working with Windows and they work just fine outside of BF2042.
I only want to use these for jets because the M+KB controls for jets is garbage. I can fly helicopters/VTOLs just fine with keyboard.
Yep I’m having the same problem running 2042 on pc through origin on a ps5 controller. I run steam in the background and it recognises my ps5 controller no matter what I have tried the controls are all stuffed up!! Soon as I load into a game it automatically looks to the ground. I had no problems whatsoever playing the beta and I haven’t changed anything on origin or steam. Pretty disappointing considering the price we pay.
wont be touching 2042 until it’s fixed. Back to vanguard it is
im in the same boat rn bought it through origin ive tried every thing all my friends that got it through steam have no issues playing with the ps5 controllers
