The game simply refuses to recognize controller input properly. In my case, using an Xbox Wireless Controller (Series X) via Bluetooth and USB, Far Cry 4 showed no response whatsoever. The menus stayed locked to mouse/keyboard prompts. The controller worked perfectly in Steam Big Picture, other Ubisoft titles like Watch Dogs 2 , and Windows Game Controller settings – but Far Cry 4 acted like it didn’t exist.
★☆☆☆☆ (1/5 – Unacceptable for a AAA title)
