    Ubisoft ignoring reports!!

    Three occasions now i have reported the problem with the Controllers not having reverse or decline for cars and helicopters aswell as ropes and they still have not fixed the issue even with screenshots of there being no input command for this action has not been taken.....
    Very frustrating and annoying!

    It's been barely two days since it was released. Give them time to actually code a fix

    Fix for controllers for farcry new dawn and farcry 5
    THIS SHOULD FIX FOLLOWING CONTROLLERS " XBOX360, XBOX ONE, DUALSHOCK 4" , SO THEY WORK PROPERLY IF GAME PURCHASED THROUGH STEAM:

    Must follow exactly. This is a UPLAY / STEAM conflict. What you’ll see is that when you load the game with STEAM the bindings for some buttons disappear somehow inside the game thus there is no Reverse, Ascend, or Descend for vehicles. Do this and it should work and the only way I have gotten the buttons to work:

    1) Go to Steam Big Picture Mode and go to Controller settings.
    2) UN -CHECK all boxes so there are NO controllers checked. THIS STEP IS IMPORTANT AND MUST BE DONE
    3) Completely EXIT and CLOSE Steam.
    4) Open UPLAY.
    5) Have controller plugged into PC Select game and LAUNCH.
    " Use Xbox 360, Xbox One, or Dualshock4 controller ".
    6) Play game!
    7) PLEASE RESPOND THAT IT HAS WORKED ON THIS FORUM TO HELP OTHERS SEE!!

    NOTE: Nintendo Switch Pro Controller not Supported!! I could not get to function.
    NOTE: STEAM CONTROLLER NOT TESTED. SORRY I DO NOT HAVE ONE.

    If the above directions followed, the controller and all buttons will work. What you are doing is loading the game from UPLAY. As you will see UPLAY will then Launch the desired game through Steam but with NO CONTROLLERS SELECTED IN STEAM CONTROLLER SETTINGS, the game will play with the UPLAY and Farcry game being played default controller settings and will bind the buttons correctly. I trust and hope this helps everyone with the controller issues.

    What controller are you using?

    I use an Xbox Elite Controller with the wireless dongle attached to my PC and have had NO issues with reversing, declining, ropes or anything.

    Infact, the only annoying issue I have is the constant resetting of my weapon choices. I choose a silenced sniper rifle and silenced assault rifle with the Y button and after every encounter it resets to my bow and pistol.....WHY!!!!
