    Dpad won't work

    Windows is up to date. The dpad won't work on my xbox one controller and xbox360 controller. Both work on every thing else. Anyone else having this issue?

    "Hey vreid66, the Xbox 360 controller isn't supported officially. Apologies!"

    Shouldn't the line from the reported controllers list:

    Supported gamepads:

    Microsoft Xbox One Controller
    DUALSHOCK 4 Controller
    XInput gamepads


    cover ANY Xinput gamepad, including the xbox 360 pad?
    I have a Logitech F310 AND a Logitech F710 pad, both are Xinput and Direct input capable via a selection switch,
    and neither one will work AT ALL without the assistance of Steams Controller emulation, and even then the
    D-Pads do not get recognized at all.

    Ubisoft, I believe, failed miserably with controller support on this title. MANY people are having issues using controllers.

    Re: 360 workaround

    Its not that great workaround if d-pad still not working...
    However XInput gamepads are supposed to be supported. I have logitech f710 Xinput gamepad, it works in every other game...

    For now, I have my Logitech F310 pad set up using Steam's Big Picture interface, and have assigned the popper keyboard keys to the D-Pad for commanding the Guns/Fangs for hire, throwing rocks, and using my binoculars.

    It is NOT ideal, as I still have to reach over to the keyboard and mouse to select different throwable weapons, plus there is NO assignment available on the gamepad for De-celerate in a vehicle/plane, and no assignment for descend in a helicopter, so still have to use keyboard for those as well.

    Was so happy to finally be able to play, jumped into the first helicopter I found because my target destination was so far way, so flying will be much faster.

    Can you imagine haw hard it is to land a helicopter when there is NO button to descend? I ended up having to pause the game, look up the correct keyboard key for "descend", and was finally able to land the damn thing, about 100 yards away from where I wanted to, nearly crashed it in the process!

    I understand also from reading other threads, that even though the "work around" to get the d-pad working for X-box one controllers helps, even X Box One controllers still have NO button assignment for De-celertae/descend.

    I honestly can not remember when it was the last time I had to use ANY sort of "fix" or "emulator" to get an Xinput capable gamepad to work in ANY game as every game I own over the past 8 to 10 years has had native Xinput support, and allowed for switching from gamepad to keyboard/mouse "on the fly", if needed, without any need for ANY changes at all.

    This really should be a top priority, in my opinion. I'd imagine there are quite a few PC gamers using some sort of gamepad, even if it is ONLY for the vehicle portions, as it is better on a gamepad.
