Controller Support 1.0 -

[Oracles]

It was advertised ( in news + discord ) that 1.0 will improve the controller support.

But in fact it's behaving the same way as before. All spells going max range , so a lot of classes/builds are basically unplayable.

it's sad because i planned to play between my steam deck and my pc using controller.

Agree, It's basically the same as in EA, I found NO improvement at all. All the bug reports submitted at EA seem to have been largely ignored.

The steam page says "Partial Controller Support" for Xbox Controller, however, this is extremely misleading and really needs to be updated to "Very Limited Support" or "Not Supported".

I'm kinda dissapointed too. More when some staff said even on Discord that 1.0 will improve everything.

it was so bad I refunded. If they fix it I will buy again. If not I will wait for a deep sale.

Works ok for me other than one really annoying thing which is when hitting the A button my character starts running to the left.

I have a lot of bugs while playing with controller. Sometimes i can't collect loot, because the item's names disappears and there is no button i could press, sometimes i can't respawn, only closing the game helps and then sometimes steam does not show the usual resolution.

As a controller player, I'm glad I saw this thread before buying. Saved me $35.

Really? Which controller are you using? I've had lots of issues with my X-Box controller.

Key issues: can't use/rebind A and Y, s***** targeting sometimes fires in another direction, have to use the right stick as a mouse, need to calibrate /re-calibrate every so often, for simple actions (selling etc.) you are better off using a mouse as the controller does not work very well. Only real plus is that you can seamlessly switch between the controller and mouse.

Eg targeting works fine for some skills most of the time e.g. totems. But at other times fails and places it in a totally random place. Unfortunately, for other skills it does not work at all, in my limited play time leap was one of them (also sorc fireball) - I think only worked for me a handful of times. Now i just use leap as a travel skill - works fine in narrow areas, in others leap and hope for the best. Lol.

The LE Steam page says Partial Controller Support for Xbox Controller and "Support for other controllers is not known".

This is simply not true; there is at best Limited Support for my X-Box controller; and I have to constantly go back to using my mouse. Thankfully that is seamless.

I get it, probably shouldn't mention D4 here, but some builds there are not playable with controller either. Trampleslide being one example. If you use a controller it only hits the nearest enemy instead of going max distance through the mobs. It can be very frustrating.

From your first post, I can see something similar is going on LE except with spells going max distance with no way to change the behavior.

Proper controller support should have togglable options for each skill such as, target nearest, target furthest, travel max distance etc.

Yup , or at least let me somehow aim with right stick so i say where i place my summons or spells. Idk , anything would be better than that.

And yeah , you are right about D4 , some issues are there. ( Wich it's odd because Diablo 3 console port is flawless )
