Thanks. Switching between characters is rather slow compared to hotkey I literally receive no input lag.
I figured I'd do human thing and show you how I got it to work. Found it on some forums.
Download xb1usb.11059.0.140526x64.msi (do a google search). These are the windows 7/8/8/1 drivers for XB1 Controller
2) Open device manager
3) Install xb1usb.11059.0.140526x64.msi
4) Manually update (browse my computer for driver software) > (let me pick from a list of device drivers) the 'Xbox Controller' in 'Xbox Peripherals' to 'Xbox Gaming Device Version 6.2.11059'
5) Under 'Human Interface Devices' you may now have a Disbaled Driver/ Driver with an Error/ Driver that can't start. Repeat step 4 BUT choose 'HID-compliant-device' as the driver.
