Xbox controller doesn't work

[Fstash]

I treated myself to one of those fancy all in black xbox controllers works on every game except this game, it will work for 10 seconds then not work for 30 seconds and do it over and over until i get frustrated and start using my mouse and keyboard. I'm using an rtx 3070 with 32gb of ram but i don't see why this would matter of my controller being non-responsive, i have tried turning my gFx settings to super low and controller still does the same

Make sure you have no other gamepad connected or any input device (steering wheel or any controller), try to connect it using a usb cable, maybe try to turn off the VR controllers or remove the batteries (they sometimes can be recognized by Unity as gamepads but won't work)
Or check the other opened issue about the xbox gamepad.

This fixed that issue for me. Go in to Steam settings then controller settings. Check XBox Configuration Support and Generic Gamepad Configuration Support. Also only plug in one controller while playing. Enjoy!
