I wanted to check if anyone is still seeing issues with connecting a GamePad/ Controller to PGA Tour on PC?
I have similar issues with my Razer Controller for Xbox. The game starts off recognizing it’s a ‘PlayStation’ controller and when I move, you see it switch to Xbox inputs. This won’t fully fix until I unplug>plug it back in.
heres the kicker though - when I try to play online, the game REFUSES to acknowledge the Razer game pad at all and forced MNK. What’s also worse, we have to use the EA overlay and cannot invite friends via Steam. I turned the overlay off as this fixed similar issues in the past but is required to play online.
interestingly enough, the controller works fine offline after the initial unplug > plug back in step mentioned above.
I tell you , EA devs never cease to amaze me.
Steam client
Razer Wolverine v2 for XBOX and PC
Windows 11
All up to date drivers and software
EDIT: Forgot to mention the same thing happens with the EA app as well as I had the free trial before getting it on steam.
EDITEDIT: Attached is the DxDiag. Enjoy.
I have the same exact controller with the exact issues and no response from ea at all..
Check out the 75 page FIFA 23 forum post reporting the same issue. This isn’t going to get fixed and is clearly an EA issue https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Controller-not-working-pc-fifa-23/td-p/11857309/page/75
Based on what ive seen and how this game is being handled, i agree that this issue is probably going to go the wayward. I have already requested a refund and have been lurking and waiting to see if there are any developments to all the issues being reported. I know (better than most) that issues take time to be fixed so thats why im waiting before i even consider repurchasing this title.
My review on steam reflects this sentiment - this game and its pricetag are not justified and unfortunately will set a nasty precedent for future titles from EA and other developers. This game was clearly not ready to be released.
Mods/whoever, is there anything else that i can provide to assist? ive already provided a dxdiag with some steps to reproduce. I even went as far to delete the razor drivers and software, and it still failed to fully recognize the controller when it came to online play. To elaborate further, when i joined a friend OR i invited a friend to a private match, i had to use the MnK to do so, because the ea overlay doesn't understand how to use a controller (please see how UBISOFT handles this as they can do both controller and MnK). Once im in the lobby, i use my controller to reset the view so it shows im on a controller. I spam triggers and bumpers so that the view changes to settings and whatnot to confirm it has the controller. Once the game loads, the controller is rendered useless and the view shows MnK controls on tee off. No amount of unplugging/plugging back in will fix it as the game REFUSES to acknowledge that i even have a controller input.
So far everything is working as it should, but there are some bugs that need to be worked on like the green grid readings are way off on most courses.. but I hear a fix is coming. I was having issues using my controller when playing with others online. Well it turns out that my razer taurus game pad was causing the issue, well disconnected it and all is great.. Haven't had much crashing or anything in the last 2 days...
