    New Series X controller disconnect when idle at pause menu Doom Eternal


    Brand new Series X controller works fine during gameplay, but on any pause menu or cutscenes (Doom Eternal), the controller quickly disconnects and reconnects, saying "Please reconnect the controller". This is a message in Doom Eternal (not a system message), it appears for about 1-2 seconds and then goes away. It is immersion breaking and I would call it a serious issue.

    This does not happen with my previous Xbox One controllers. Of course, I have updated the controller firmware several times and fully shutdown and restarted Xbox One (it's the original 2013 console). Battery is fully charged.

    Someone on another forum said they had this issue with Assassin's Creed Valhalla while connected to a 2013 Xbox One with new Series X controller.

    It's so annoying to have wasted hours researching this issue which should have been tested on every console by Microsoft. I'm going to return it to Amazon unless a firmware update is released to fix it very soon. I really hope it isn't something to do with the new radio/bluetooth controller. Although, the controller stays connected perfectly for hours of gameplay, so I don't think it's wireless interference. It only happens when the controller is idle.

    I've also had a bug when I was in YouTube, the controller was still connected and became unresponsive, I couldn't even hold the X button to turn the controller off.

    I've seen others with this same issue on other forums. I'm hoping this gets into the known issues of Xbox support.

    I have searched Bethesda support and nobody is talking about this, I don't think it's only a Doom Eternal issue.

    how do vulkan games like doom eternal run on xbox

    Pretty sure they're not using Vulkan on Xbox.

    How they run depends on what console you're using. On Series X they're excellent, and Doom Eternal even has raytraced reflections on the Series X hardware. The RT can drop the FPS to just below 60 occasionally, but it's largely flawless.

    On the now older Xbox One S their resolution is limited to around 900P, but they run much smoother and in higher res on the One X and Series X.

    If you've got a Series X, Doom 2016, Doom Eternal, Wolfenstein II The New Colossus and Wolfenstein Youngblood play really well. No major performance issues. Digital Foundry on YouTube have conducted extensive tests on these games. I would check them out.

    Series x technical specs grayed out

    I've checked every game including Valhalla and call of duty. None support 4k? Not even doom eternal upgrade to series x?

    Controller Firmware Update - Messed up my controller?!?

    I have an issue similar to yours and identical to other users: even after OS update 10.0.22000.2656,
    on Xbox Series X when some games like Doom Eternal, Crash Bandicoot 4, Psychonauts 2, Tales of Arise and Visage are launched (only Xbox Series X enhanced games and not all of them) any Xbox Series X controller incur in an input issue, with battery and with USB cable without battery: if any key or trigger is pressed rapidly it doesn't work, a sort of input lag. The issue persist in any dashboard menu or in any other game that don't give this issue, then if I turn off and turn on the controller again the problem disappear until I return to the game in background that caused the issue. Any Xbox One X controller works perfectly instead. Both Xbox Series X and Xbox Series X controller are update with the latest update. I noticed that when the issue start the usual buzzing noise of the controller change sound, a lower sound. This issue started since about 4 months after a system update. I have reported many times this issue and it has been reported by other users too.
    Analog sticks and triggers calibration from the system menu is missing, an essential feature in my opinion, I'm reporting this since 3 years.

    Xbox Series X controller input lag

    On Xbox Series X when some games like Doom Eternal, Crash Bandicoot 4, Psychonauts 2, Tales of Arise and Visage are launched (only Xbox Series X enhanced games and not all of them) any Xbox Series X controller incur in an input issue, with battery and with USB cable without battery: if any key or trigger is pressed rapidly it doesn't work, a sort of input lag. The issue persist in any dashboard menu, then if I turn off and turn on the controller again the problem disappear until I return to the game in background that caused the issue. Any Xbox One X controller works perfectly instead. Both Xbox Series X and Xbox Series X controller are update with the latest update. I noticed that when the issue start the usual buzzing noise of the controller change sound, a lower sound. If I plug any headphone with or without microphone in the Xbox Series X controller the commands are more responsive but the problem remains. I reported more and more times this problem to Microsoft since 3 months but still there isn't an update that resolve this issue with my great disappointment. I think this issue started since about 4 months after a system update, and I think the problem is the same of yours. Can you confirm this?

    For Game Soundtracks I would have to say the Halo series has been my favorite, along with Doom 2016 and soon Doom Eternal!
