[MEGATHREAD] No Controller Detection on PC

Hi !
Can you fired up the xBox controller and then unplug your keyboard and then check if it's working ?
(Edit : make sure the PS5 controller is off)

When unplugging the keyboard, I am able to use the Xbox controller. However, plugging the keyboard back in will result in the character going back into the "roll" state if I stop moving. As long as the keyboard is unplugged, there are no issues.

Alright, I have the same issue since all the playtest started.
So I have 2 PS5 contoller and one xBox one controller. All are behaving the same way, if my keyboard is plugged, my character roll on the floor due to ghost input made on trigger.

This reason (what I think is at least on my side) is because my keyboard is a Razer Huntsman v2. It's a mechanical analog keyboard which can be detected as a controller as all the key have a frame of reference between 0 to 255 when pushed.
Unplug the keyboard solve the issue.

Note : Same with Razer Tartarus

No matter what I try and where I look I can't find a single thing to fix this. When launching the game with my controller plugged in and all my drivers updated, there is nothing telling me I don't have a controller plugged in. I'm only given keyboard prompts. When I try inputs on my controller, nothing happens. After I get through creating my character, I have to move to go get a skateboard. It prompts me with the "L" in a circle for 'left joystick' and when I try to do anything on my controller the camera looks down like its being held there by an invisible controller. When I try to use the same controller, port, cord, etc. on any other EA game, they also have unworking or buggy controller inputs. When I try to launch these EA games through Steam, the controller still doesn't work. When I use the controller on OTHER GAMES outside of EA, it works perfectly fine like there's nothing wrong with it. What the hell. This is an exclusively EA problem. Am I not allowed to play EA games? I just want to play the skate playtest, I haven't been able to for months. Please help or just tell me it won't work so I can stop getting my hopes up.

Try to unplug your keyboard while your controller on.
