What is your gamertag/PSN ID/EA Account name? Scud_himself
Are you playing in VR? No
Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Other
Please explain 'Other' General in game
What were you doing when the bug occurred? Step by Step detail is helpful. Trying to begin playing after game launches using only a Thrustmaster HOTAS One controller
Where did this issue occur? Please include menu name or in game location. At the very beginning after game has loaded.
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 02/10/2020
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Can play, but it's highly frustrating
What happens when the bug occurs? I can select the game on xbox mygames and load it. Then immediately the game says to push A on the controller. If controller is Thrustmaster HOTAS One at this point, then pressing A does nothing until you turn on a standard Xbox controller. If you press A on the Xbox controller the game will start and you can play using HOTAS, but if you switch off the Xbox controller, a screen pops up to tell you to reconnect the controller and press A. So basically you cant play the game using HOTAS unless a standard Xbox controller is also switched on. In my case the battery ran out on my only Xbox controller so I’m waiting for it to recharge before I can play, even though I have a HOTAS wired in via USB. When the battery dies again on the Xbox controller, the game will stop and ask me to press A on the controller which I cant do as the HOTAS is not recognised without a standard Xbox controller switched on.
What do you expect to see? I expect to be able to use the HOTAS One as a stand alone controller in game and not have to have a standard xbox controller switched on too.
Which ship were you playing? If not applicable, just answer "no" or "none." None
What components were you using? I have installed on both Xbox One and Xbox One X with Thrustmaster HOTAS One controller
Which customizations (if any) were you using? None
