Game Crash after new update

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Technical Support
1

Issue Description:
Hi. After the new game update, I get an error when I start the game. Black screen and crash. I’ve already deleted the darktide folder from %appdata%, updated my graphics card drivers, and even completely deleted and redownloaded the game. If there has already been a similar topic, I’m sorry, could’t find.

edit: mixing two different crashes.

You likely have a ps4/ps5 controller connect. Try disconnect it and see how it works.

I will see if we changed anything regarding that in the code base

Omg. Thats works. I didn’t think it could cause crashes. Thanks for help.

we will make sure it works with it connected in the future.

I think some ps4/ps5 controller support sneaked into the release which is why this issue started for you.

We will likely disable it in next patch until it works properly

im curious does it work with the controller connected now without the game crashing? we have not managed to reproduce this issue.

However the ps4/ps5 controller support seems to be broken regardless due to some other unknowns.
