Issue using XBOX 1 Controller on Windows during NBA 2k17 game.

Tue Jun 27, 2017 8:16 am

Hey guys,

Question for the team here that uses an XBOX One Controller on their PC for NBA 2k17. I haven't encountered an issue like this on other games (Battlefield, Far Cry, Forza).

During a game, on random occasions... my Controller becomes unresponsive to EVERY button except direction, move and shoot. I can't pass, can't post up, can't turbo, can't call for a pick, can't time out... nothing except walk in any direction and shoot. This only happens on offense....never on defense... even the following possesion... when I go back on Defense...everything starts working...until I get the ball back...

I checked everything, firmware, windows update, uninstalled mods... only happens randomly...

however, lately I've figured out... that it happens after I click LB... but not everytime.... I've gone a full 12 min Q game pressing all buttons and it's been okay...but then sometimes it just happens in the 3rd... or the 2... or 1st... or the 4th.... I sometimes unplug my controller and plug back in... and it begins to work properly.... for a couple of possessions... and then happens again.

beats me... I wrote on NBA 2k forums and emailed... nothing... no bug.

Ive had no issues with my XBOX One wireless, XBOX One wired or my XBOX 360 wired. The CPU automatically recognizes the controller, and it works perfect with all my games. Im running Windows 7 Home.

Maybe try and calibrate the controller through the control panel?

Hey D43!

Thanks for always throwing out suggestions and tips, you are well respected in my eyes. Also, I have to get back to you still on the roster discussion we had regarding the awesome classic roster you had, I will hit you back on that thread soon!

I have done that and still just happens randomly. It had been 110% fine up until a few weeks ago. Not sure how to really explain it, but it's got a mind of it's own. I changed wires, changed usb ports... still happens... very randomly..but works as soon as I exit the match I am playing and start again... or if i unplug and plug back in... but it occurs again soon after unless I completely exit out of NBA 2k17... then I might get lucky and be able to play a full 12 min quarter game with no issues. This also happens during user vs user gameplay when ever i have a friend over playing against him... using your roster (we f**king love it btw)
