EAFC 24 Controller/ game bug

Product: The EA app
Platform:PC
Error Report ID (learn how to create an Error Report ID in the sticky post) EAFC Controller bug
Which client functionality are you experiencing this bug with? Application Navigation
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) Constantly since download
Summarize your bug EAFC controller bug. My controller during the game and menus bugs out. Sometimes it works normally and then every now and again it gets stuck scrolling in a certain direction (Usually up). In games my players tend to run upwards (Where I place my cursor) and my cursor tends to drift into the middle of the screen without me touching it. It renders the game severely unplayable. This happens in every game mode I have tried. I have tried using a wired and wireless Xbox One X controller, with different cables USB 3.0 and C. Ive tried a switch controller (Completely buggy the second its plugged in). Ive tried loading it through steam, closing off steam. Ive updated the Xbox controller, changed down the game visuals to the minimum. Repairing the game, uninstalling both the EA app and EAFC and reinstalling. Ive forced steam input, disabled it. Disconnected my mouse from the PC. None of these have worked for me. It isnt a controller issue as the controllers both work fine for other games. I am soon acquiring a PS5 controller to test that out but majorly dissapointed to have spent so much money for the game to not work.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I am unsure. Apparently its an older glitch thats happened for a few years now. All I did to get the game going was bought a key for the EA app, downloaded the game, plugged in a controller. Started the game and then it starts happening.
What happens when the bug occurs? The menus scroll up, although recently they have also started to scroll down sometimes. The mouse drifts to the middle of the screen during matches and players don't follow all commands. Game play feels incredibly slow and players somewhat unresponsive.
What do you expect to see? A working game. I spent a lot of money on the game. And something as simple as a controller not working is unacceptable. I just want the issue fixed. Its clear that its not on my end as my controllers work on other games. And my computer can easily run the game (RTX 3090, I7 12700k) so it must be some kind of optimisation from EA.

Scrolling and Player control bug. Players running wild and mouse drifting into the middle of the screen affecting player movement.

    My PS5 controller will randomly start spamming to the left or right of the screen when scrolling through menus or editing my club in Ultimate Team, without even being touched. In 2023, this should not be happening, especially when the game was over $100

  • I found a fix for this issue for my pc. I had exacly same problem with alt tabbing when i was in game. To fix a problem i just click a windows icon on keyboard (on the down left side of keyboard) and mouse click on game usually a leadboard or something that need to scroll up or down
