Summarize your bug So now after your latest update for Madden 21 on PC, I can’t switch players on defense using the B button and dpad to switch.

I have no issues with any other games with my controllers so I know its not the controller.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play franchise mode

So now after your latest update for Madden 21 on PC, intermittently I can’t switch players on defense using the B button and dpad to switch. The selected player also will randomly run left off the field when I’m not even pushing the left stick at all. I have no issues with any other games with my controllers so I know its not the controller.

Also when I’m on the play select screen the list will just scoll automatically without me pressing anything at all.

    Hi @jjbyrd04

    It sounds like the game is reading inputs from a different source besides your controller. Do you have any other USB input devices connected to your PC aside from the controller, mouse, and keyboard? If so, can you try disconnecting the other device(s) to see if that helps at all?

    Would you mind posting a DxDiag when you've got the chance so we can take a look? For more info on how to pull one up check out the EA Help website. Once you have the text file please attach it to this thread. Thanks!
