Arma 3
What the f*ck is wrong with controller mapping in this game??
A little venting to start, but looking for genuine help...

How the hell can this game be so terrible in basic controller functionality? Even for a 2013 release this is basically broken. How has Bohemia not put in any effort or thought (sorry to sound overly critical, but it's that bad) as to have such an inconsistent, borderline broken, controller functionality? It would be fine if I could simply map buttons, like any other damn PC game, but it's not that simple. I have 7 hours in this game and they've all been terrible. I thought I had the mapping system down, only to turn on the game today, "Enable" the right controller, and find that none of my mappings work, despite the game still listing them (not grayed out either).

Does anyone know of any fixes or mods? I do believe this game has a lot to offer, and I'd really like to dig into it. But, and I hate saying this, the controller functionality seems thoughtless and poor representation of Bohemia's capabilities.

Please, please, PLEASE do not leave a snide comment about why I'm using a controller to play this game. I don't like mouse and keyboard. I'm playing single player only, so I'm fine with the limitations of a controller....as long as it works.

Arma 3 was never designed to be compatible with controllers. Hence why it doesn't work. It's a strict PC game, built for M&K and maybe HOTAS and TrackIR. I'm guessing you're coming from Reforger? Reforger is on a new engine, and is designed for both PC and Console. Arma 3 was designed strictly for PC. As for fixes, plenty of options available on the Bohemia forums and other websites. Or check on YouTube.
(Not intended to be a snide comment, just a blunt one)
I understand the intended use is M&K, but if controller support, or any feature, is in the game, it should be done competently. I've tried looking online already, haven't been able to find a consistent solution. Do you have a link to one you recommend?

I'm actually not coming from Reforger. This is my first Arma experience.

I came from console to Arma. Unfortunately I don't know of any tutorial or forum discussion off-hand that can explain how to make controller work with it. But it's easier to learn the game with M&K than controller. If I do find something, I'll link it to here though.
