Forum Discussion
everything is up to date, there are no integrity violations, this happens when just trying to use the controller, pushing A from the press any button screen to the main menu....i can see the controls switching prompts for keyboard and xbox controller as i navigate and while trying to play. Also at the team select screen when i push on the dpad to move team user selection its moving both controller and keyboard. Everything is up to date and i have no issues in other games with the gamepad working as its intended.
Fixed, cant have steam open while trying to play. This bug needs fixed in your game code.

Hi @nike23osu, To check are you playing from the EA app? If so did you have controller setting enabled in your Steam client settings?Ive never changed anything on steam for controllers, its all default...i am launching from the EA App directly. I dont have this issue with madden 24/F1 24 only madden25, and it 100% has to do with steam and this game specifically as i can reproduce 100% by exiting steam and starting the game and it works fine, the second i open steam the inputs are all over the place. Me having steam open should not affect this one game out of all the games i have on steam and thru ea play pro, this is the only one with the isssue. Just to clarify i do not have or own the game on steam, i have ea play pro and am using the ea desktop app to launch and play the game...steam should have no influence over controls as it does not affect any of the other games ive played in the past.

Hi @nike23osu
Thanks for the additional information, we can pass this on to our team to be aware of.
In the mean time, we can see if disabling controllers or Steam overlay when the Steam client is running prevents this from happening. I know from time to time Steam's settings can take control of connected devices which might interfere with games from other clients.
cheers!
