Summarize your bug: Brand new xbox controller does not map properly via bluetooth. (I got one because the ps4 controller I have made me stuck aiming at the ground in-game).
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? If I connect via bluetooth, the controller is not reading properly. Example I hit B button and it triggers as a joystick, dpad movement. To look left and right is mapped to the triggers. If I connect wired the controller is mapped properly. When I check the xbox accessories app the mappings show correct wired or wireless, so the controller is not the issue.
- Kuiriel4 years agoSeasoned Veteran@s1tactical Did you change the controller schemes to custom so that it uses your bindings instead of the default ones?
- 4 years ago@Kuiriel Tried changing schemes to no effect. *Note it is only on Bluetooth and not a wired connection that I have this issue. The controller has up-to-date firmware. I am using the ea app, not the steam version of the game. I have even tried launching through the origin and not the ea app to no effect.

I've already tried everything.
my xbox one pc controller keeps crashing randomly.
I am very deeply disappointed with battlefield. I am a faithful follower of the saga from bad company 1 and the truth is that I cannot believe that EA does not say anything about the subject, at least to calm people.
I will not play again until they give a solution, what's more, when the EA play pro expires if they have not solved it, I will not buy it and see that it hurts after the desire with which I was waiting for it.
- AlphaHeir4 years agoNew Scout@s1tactical You got the same issue as me then mate. Use https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Sf2FNpLLVc and it should fix it.
Need to have your controller on before you launch the game, if you get kicked from the game you need to quit origin and load up the game through steam- 4 years ago
@AlphaHeir Appreciate the insight into a workaround fix. However, I should not have to use a third-party application to get the controller to function properly on a Bluetooth connection. Especially since this is an official Xbox One controller, not ds4 or anything with a virtual driver. Many other titles work just fine with it. I am content enough to use a wired connection for now. It's not like I play with the screen several meters away from me. Luckily I have a long enough usb c cord, a cord that by default does not come with the Xbox controller unless you get the rechargeable pack or a higher-end one.
I am glad to see that EA is monitoring this thread and hope they get this sorted out with the different client's ex steam, origin/ea app versions with the various issues.- AlphaHeir4 years agoNew Scout@s1tactical No worries mate! Ive had major issues with fifa 21, had to disable hyperthreading in my bios to make sure i didnt get kicked from online matches. Had to decrease my pc's performance rather than EA patch it out 9 months after it was first reported 😂
