Still the mouse / gamepad issue
Product: Star Wars Battlefront II
Platform:PC
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug Hi, After trying the game the last update, I stull get the same issue : when using the gamepad I can't use the mouse anymore and my keys are back to default. I have to get the gamepad batteries out to be able to use the mouse and my remapped keys again. It worked flawlessly in the previou Battlefront, I can't understand why it is so hard to fix that. After reading the same issue reported on the official forum, it seems the one who experience this issue are using an Xbox wireless gamepad. I've so connected an Xbox shaped non Microsoft gamepad and... no problem! Well, you need a gamepad detected as a "Game For Windows" controller, because I you must know, any other gamepad (detected as a regular "USB gamepad") is useless in this game because the mapping gets different and there is no way to remap the gamepad or joystick (another incredible issue ; on PC we can only use a "Game for Windows" compatible gamepad). Many of us have been waiting an answer about his for many months and all we get is "we read the forum and the problem has been reported". Great to know but the issue has not been fixed... With each update I hope to have a good surprise but each time it's the same, issue still there. I'm pretty sure the issue occurs only with wireless Microsoft Xbox gamepads, as it was already reported in 2017 by players on your forums. When do you think someone will take a few hours to test and fix the problem?
