Hello folks! There is no vibration feedback in the controller in the trial version on Xbox series X. Anyone else experienced the same?

Can confirm firmware is up to date. However you bring up a good point with the streaming, that does seem to be a factor. Has happened only a few times when NOT streaming, all of which were with Elite 2 controllers. When streaming however it was with all controller types. Any idea of a workaround? Or ETA of a patch?

@EA_Blueberry Yes I have the latest firmware for my Elite Series 2 controller and don't use the companion app for streaming, like there is absolutely zero vibration whats so ever, will have to see if it's still happening come Thursday night/Friday morning when the full release is out.

Yes I’m on series x and I barley get any vibration . Maybe 2/10 times I’ll feel vibration on hits.I never know if I’m hitting them off balance or to lose puck with it.this is so bad I hope they fix this soon.I’ve been playing nhl since 09 and the vibration has never been like this.all the top esports and competitive players can’t stand it.what’s happend??is there anyway to fix this

Product: NHL 22Platform:Microsoft XBOX OneHow often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the game with an Xbox controller What happens when the bug occurs? Controller doesn’t vibrate at all, even when I turn vibration off and back onWhat do you expect to see? The controller not vibrating Was the issue in online or offline mode? OfflineInsert Game Mode or Feature here Every game modeWhat time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) Once I opened the game, right when it released What is your time zone? EST (IET) - GMT - 5:30What is your gamertag/PSN ID? ShinyMew76 PS4 Crash Reporting: Please copy the text you put in the crash report here. EASHL issues? Please insert your Club Region. What is your game language? EnglishEvery NHL game my controller with vibrate, even right now I could go into NHL 21 and my controller would vibrate, but in NHL 22 it doesn’t vibrate, even though the option is on and I turned it off then back on, my Xbox has restarted and I even have asked some others if they had the same issue, which some did. It’s really weird playing the game when my controller doesn’t vibrate, if this could be fixed I would appreciate it

I am also having this issue. Its very frustrating and makes the game almost unplayable

Is Vibration enabled under Controller Accessibility as well as your Controller Settings?

Anyone else having issues with no vibration at all in the controller? Double checked settings in both game and on the xbox one. Both have vibration turned on but I'm not getting any at all. Battery is full, testing "Vibrate Controller" in the xbox one settings vibrates the controller no problem. In game though, I get nothing.
Edit: Also to note, I'm using the Xbox Console Companion to stream to my computer monitor. Tried wired to my computer and wireless, same results. Vibrates on command in the settings of the Xbox One, but nothing in game.
Edit 2: Just tried it again on NHL 21, no problems. Vibration is fine wired or wireless over streaming through the Xbox Console Companion app.

Yep sure is i looked up other posts on it and apparently it only happens if you are using the Xbox Elite Series 2 controller, which was the case for me. Again probably just a simple bug fix, btw went back and tested NHL 21 for vibration feedback and it was working while using my Elite controller.

Weird. I’m also using elite 2 controllers, my issue is that they won’t sync when entering lobbies. Seems to be a reoccurring issue with a few games at this time. Still lose their minds whenever there’s a hit though! BRRRRRRRRR

We'll share these details with the team. Thank you for letting us know.

Hey, all.

Shared it with the team but can you all confirm you've checked the controller has the latest firmware update under your Xbox console settings and this is happening when you're not streaming using the Xbox Companion?

We want to distinguish whether it's happening both with and without the app, otherwise it's important details to know if it's only happening when associated with that app.

Thank you.
