Controller experience/input issues.

Hi there,

I'm experiencing some weird controller (I think input) issues. 

I am playing via the EA Play App on PC, with an Xbox controller. 

When I run the game and load intot he menus, my controller starts continuosly vibrating, alongside a message in the bottom right corner saying '! New Input Connected'. These two things happen simultaneously. I go into the controller settings, and there's three inputs: my mouse and keyboard ( ithink epxected) appears at the bottom, but there's a PlayStation controller in input 1, and finally my actual Xbox controller in input 3. 

While I do find it annoying, what more annoys me is the impact it has on my game. The vibration goes away after I play a  function of the game i.e. a game, or Moments on FUT, or I go into the controller settings from the main menu. Moreover, it just stops me from being able to play Skill games in Pro Clubs... which is a pretty vital way to compete and level up in this game mode.

I've googled for a few hours and followed various steps, all of which to no avail, and I haven't found anything like this on the forum through my scrolling. 

Does anyone have any ideas on how to help fix? Or has anyone else experienced this issue too?

Thank you

  • Worth saying - I have never owned a PlayStation controller, connected a PlayStation controller, or used a PlayStation controller with my PC, and by extension any game on EA/Steam... Anything... Very odd. 

  • Yeah, you need to check your settings in the Xbox accessories app. Download and then in the app switch off the vibration. That has been the only thing that worked for me. You wont have any rumbles during the game but its better than nothing. So far there has been no signs of this getting fixed. Also check your mouse, gamepad and keyboard software, like razor apps, this also can be an issue. I have had to disconnect some to use menus to setup my pro avatar .

    oh my god i've found someone with the exact same issue as me!

    i've also never owned a playstation controller, yet it shows up in game!

  • Just installed the game, as soon as I load in, my controller starts vibrating and the Social menu randomly opens. Controller is absolutely fine, been using it in FC25 and other games, and everything works absolutely fine outside of FC26. 

    Refunding this buggy **bleep**. You'd think for over 20 years in the business EA could make an application that runs without major issues
