Re: FC 25 controller wrong input game. Just only happen in fc 25

@SAMY_smyy multiple titles on PC have issues with supporting PS4's controller. You should try using ds4windows or a similar tool to emulate Xbox controller. Then it'll work fine (though you'll still have Xbox button icons

Disabling steam input and then restarting Steam / game should help. Also, PS4 controller is not officially supported in EA FC25 on PC, as far as I know

    Impossible de jouer avec la manette DualSens de Sony sur PC, le logiciel DS4 Windows entre en conflit avec AntiCheat.

    Le jeu est exclusivement en anglais.

    Demande de remboursement effectué.

    EA quand allez vous apprendre de vos erreurs passées ?

    C'est chaque fois qu'on doit attendre 3 mois pour avoir une version jouable pour tout le monde, les joueurs PC sont constamment abandonnés. pffff

    Same problem.

    I've got a Razer controller (licensed for PlayStation and for tournaments)

    And got same issues in FC24 but they've gone after I added FC24 and EA app as a non-Steam game and using controller input override in Steam.

    Now about FC 25:

    I've got a game via EA PRO subscribtion.

    And can't use my gamepad in a game.

    Tried to:

    - just install and run from the EA app

    - repair and run from the EA app

    - add as non-steam game and run from the Steam

    - add as non-steam game, turn on "override" gamepad inputs in settings and run from the Steam

    Also tried all advices from this topic - all without any positive result.

    And FC 24 still works fine via Steam. But not FC 25 =(

    Also noticed than FC 25 is not marked green in a Steam's menu while it's running as it was with FC 24 and EA app.

    Maybe they changed the way the process is launched for the FC 25 and now it doesn't want to launch as a child process of Steam and that's why last year's method of launching through Steam doesn't help in FC 25...

    I've just found a solution for my Razer gamepad: installed their driver from here: https://dl.razerzone.com/drivers/Raiju/win/Razer_XInput_RaijuUltimate_Driver_v1.00.00.01.exe
    And it starts working just from EA App without Steam and etc.

    But not sure if it could help with other gamepads... Maybe you should search for XInput driver on your manufacturers' websites...

    Platform: PC, EA App
    Please specify your platform model. PC, EA App
    What is your Gamertag/PSN ID/Switch ID? VatoPapiChulo
    Which mode has this happened in? Player Career
    Which part of the mode? During a match
    Can you tell us the date? (MM/DD/YYYY) Today, 09-20-2024
    What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) Just now, 20:18 PM
    What is your time zone? Amsterdam/Berlin
    How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
    How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the game before you release it
    What happens when the bug occurs? My player keeps walking a different way at random, input lag on controller as well and no whistles from the referee, only at full-time/half-time 
    What should be happening instead? Simply to play a f*cking game

    It's absolutely ridiculous!! Never had any problems with controllers whatsoever. But now, when playing player career mode, everytime when I walk and I hold the RB button as well to get my defenders to press the opponent, my player just keeps walking even though I let go of the left joystick whilst still holding RB. The controller input is also really delayed in FC25, compared to all other games I've ever played. Never had any problems with controllers and any EA game through the EA App on PC and a wireless Xbox One controller with a bluetooth adapter.

    Also, most of the time when a foul occurs, or any other event which causes the referee to whistle (NORMALLY), you do not hear the whistle during the games. Only at full-time and half-time.

    It's absolutely horrendous how I have been paying 100 and now 120 euros a year to get an EA Play Pro subscription, just for EA to mess up Madden 25 AND EA FC 25 WITHING A SINGLE F*CKING MONTH!!!! It's like EA doesn't give a sh*t about their customers, AT ALL!! (Yes, I am really pissed off now, as a loyal player and subscription owner FOR MULTIPLE YEARS NOW, EA...)

    And yes... I do have a good PC which can play all games on maximum graphics whithout breaking a sweat...

  • Does anyone know how to fix this : 

    When Im in MENU everything is alright, I can play RUSH without issues but when im in rivals I can't controle players, only one button works - pause.

    For DS4 new gen, you can directly connect to windows 10/11 via BT and able to play fc 25 without any third party app.

    For DS4 old gen, quite annoying, you need to connect it via BT to windows twice. so first connect via BT (press ps button), after connected (blinking gone and lights off but status connected), turn it of by pressing and hold ps button+L1+L2+R1+R2 for about 10 sec (or disconnected/paired in wireless controller status), then connect it again by pressing ps button, now ds4 old gen will be connected normally and light will turned on. you can play fc 25 directly without third party app. the most annoying part is, after done playing, I need to turn off my BT first (and turn it on again). or your windows page will go up and down insanely.. lol

    I have both of them, next time i buy DS4, i will make sure that it is new gen.

    and for reducing input lag, play it on low (display configuration) on all (res, grass cloth, etc). i tried it on 4k medium res (awesome graphics with HDR) , input lag was horrible like hell. but on low res, its perfectly fine.
