    There is an issue with the XBox controller, but I don't think it's game related, I think it's a Windows problem (or maybe not, dunno).

    The solution to this:

    1) Exit the game

    2) Go to Device Manager

    3) Find the driver for XBox Controller and uninstall it

    4) Restart your PC immediately and unplug your controller before booting

    5) Once your PC is up again and the Desktop screen loads, plug your XBox Controller back in and wait for it to install itself

    It should work now.

    I had to do that 3-4 times a week, but now I do it every time I turn off DBD just in case. I really hate when I load into a match and I have to switch to keyboard and then suck for the entire team cause of this issue.

    None of that makes sense to do. If its working in the menu and every other game I play its not a Windows problem. I cant even imagine you doing that everytime you play, rather not play at all than go through that. Thanks for trying to help though no one else is.
