XBOX Elite Series 2 here not working except in launcher.. Playing through EA pro on Origin
Weirdly, when I do this the games don't get past the splash screens, they just stay there. I'm not getting booted back to the launcher though so that's an improvement, I guess?
I had a similar issue with the Origin version. It turned out that the cause was that the game was trying to use a flight stick that was plugged in. Disconnecting the flight stick resolved the issue. Obviously, this is a bug as it should not choose to prefer a flight stick over an XBox One controller.
I was just coming back to report this was my issue as well.
Now I can't even play without a controller. My game is locked into thinking there is a controller as all the prompts are XYBA and the camera is spinning in circles around Shepherd. Completely unplayable.
EDIT: XBOX CONTROLLER FIXED: I had other controllers/joysticks plugged into my computer via USB that were causing issues. I launched the game via Steam Big Picture Mode and enabled Xbox configuration Support and Extended Feature Support. Controller is now working properly.
Im having the same issue, tried big picture mode and enabled both xbox support in controller config and still not working.
I'm curious - to anyone who has had the issue of controllers not being recognised: have you tried unplugging your mouse and keyboard so that the controller is the only input?
I tried doing this in the hope that it would force the games to default to the controller but instead it just causes them to crash at the splash screen.
I found a fix that was posted in a different thread. In Device manager under Human interface devices i found the culprit was HID-compliant game controller. As soon as I disabled that and rebooted my computer then reloaded ME1 my xbox controller works now past the initial screen. Hope this helps some people
@turnerbenA word of caution that doing this resulted in all kinds of blue screen of death for me so while it might work for some I would...make a system backup first.
Edit: After restarting I would experience blue screen shortly after the pairing of the bluetooth controller. I probably rebooted 5-6 times trying to turn the HID-Compliant Game Controller back on and it blue screens every time. I just unpaired the controller in bt setting and re-paired it and the HID-Compliant Game Controller is enabled so fingers crossed this fixed the system stability issue. I did notice they pushed out an update but it did not fix the controller issue for me in ME2.
Yeah sadly the patch notes didn't mention any controller issues.
