Losing control of game inputs FC24 on PC

Playing FC24 on PC,

i recently formatted my drives and reinstalled the game and since i have reinstalled, I will randomly lose all control of the game, i play controller but when the bug happens i cant select anything on the menus with KBM either, if it happens in game it's as if my controller has died and the players just run in a straight line continously until i get control back, usually lasts about 15-30s.

this bug happens when using either of my controllers (razer wolverine ultimate, PowerA not sure what model).

its been making the game virtually unplayable, particularly any online game mode, as the time im unable to do anything my opponent can freely score and i just lose every game it happens in.

  • I solved this issue, when I reinstalled windows, 
    I also reinstalled all apps, this meant steam was launching in the background on launch and having it open in the background messes with controllers and was causing the issue, i had to open the control panel in bottom right of start menu bar at the bottom of the screen, right click the steam icon and click exit steam then close and reopen FC24

    turning off steams 'launch on startup' setting fixes it permanently. 

    idk why steams interface messes with controller settings, considering i wasnt even playing FC24 through steam i play it through EA app.

    make sure steam isnt running in background

    (check control centre on rioght hand side of windows start menu bar at bottom of screen and exit steam)

  • I have the same issue, i bought the game from steam even though i launch my game from EA it still opens up steam and when i try to close the steam while the game is on it closes the game. Any other fix?
