Hi!
I had a similar issue when binding the buttons, the Z axis and the "throttle" of my Logitech Extreme 3D Pro. Assigning the X & Y axis went pretty smooth, but other input (Z axis, throttle and some buttons) was a bit bugged. It worked for me when I simply pushed/spammed the buttons during keybinding, at some point the input was registered. After I've succeeded the binding of the joystick, I haven't experienced any input-registration issues in-game - it seems like a binding-issue, not a full joystick issue, at least for me.
Maybe this does the trick for you as well.
hth!

I can confirm/agree with this statement.

I have the Logitech Attack 3 and I had to spam press alot of the buttoms to get them to map but once in game they work perfect.

BFV is not seeing my joystick. I've tried my Thrustmaster T16000 and Logitech Extreme #D PRO joysticks, neither work. Cannot assign an action to any function. Please help...

The response I got from the EA representative was that, and I quote, "EA has never said they would or will support the use of joystick controllers on..." pc battlefield, and there "...is no future mention of doing so..." I even went so far as to tell them that every battlefield before V had joystick support, but to no avail.

I fixed it for me afte three days and about 5-6 hours. The user experience here ist really worse than BF42. OK, I couldnt reach the Joystick section in the bindings. Now after all this time me chimpanzee went on the gamepad section and killed each binding by clicking it and pressing escape and escape again. Same with the keyboard bindings i would no longer use as a pilot. Now finally, the joystick section worked. Go for it ! #bf5 #joytick #pronlem #pc #solved
