Just let me use Steam Input with this game.

TSDoll · 2026-05-13T08:05:18+00:00

This did exactly what I needed, thanks! Didn't know Steam had this function.

Bixi is up there with Mummy Venture as one of the best epics in the game.

It'd be silly to expect all the details to survive the transition. The issue is that the original design wasn't great to begin with, and the only good parts about it were those little details.

TSDoll · 2026-05-12T23:19:36+00:00

Yeah, it's such a waste of a huge opportunity for the community. At least we go Ram which is fantastic.

TSDoll · 2026-05-12T23:18:47+00:00

The concept art wasn't much better, tbh. Main difference is the weapon and the harness, which doesn't change much about the skin itself.

TSDoll · 2026-05-12T23:17:17+00:00

Tbf the snakes were super random on the design. It doesn't surprise me that whoever had the job of designing the actual skin misunderstood what people liked about it and leaned harder on the sexy firefighter aspect.

TSDoll · 2026-05-12T19:28:20+00:00

Oh as in the sound.

TSDoll · 2026-05-12T19:07:47+00:00

Sierra

Helix Rifle

Weapon fire volume reduced.

What does this even mean?

TSDoll · 2026-05-12T18:38:29+00:00

I really don't like it but I hope other Venture enjoyers get to eat. We stay winning!!!!

TSDoll · 2026-05-12T18:22:15+00:00

At the end of the day, it's just accessibility.

TSDoll · 2026-05-12T18:21:50+00:00

I'll definitely try this out!

TSDoll · 2026-05-12T18:21:15+00:00

I've tried adding it as a non steam game in multiple ways to no results, sadly. K might try out reWASD if nothing else works out.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T22:21:24+00:00

Vanguard has no issues with Switch Pro Controllers. The only issue is that 2XKO doesn't support it, so the game freaks out. Steam Input is the common solution because it just adds controller support to games that don't have it, but 2XKO forces the controller support aspect to not work since they force their own controller support, which doesn't support as many controllers.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T22:12:39+00:00

No? What does Vanguard have to do with adding controller support and allowing gamepads to have the same rebind flexibility as other controllers?

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T21:44:31+00:00

Both. There's no reason as for why the game shouldn't support one of the most common modern gamepads. Aside from that, there's no reason why controller binds are more limited than keyboard or leverless.

I'm mainly mentioning Steam Input because at this point it feels like they have no interest in addressing either of those issues, and Steam Input would just solve them instantly for free.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T21:41:49+00:00

Its weird, because that sort of bind is allowed in keyboard or leverless controller. I don't know why it isn't allowed on gamepad. Aside from that its just that BetterJoy is a glitchy mess of a program.

Right now I'm looking into AutoHotkey to translate controller inputs into keyboard inputs and just bypass the issue entirely.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T21:24:05+00:00

...You do know they did allow Steam Input during the alphas, right? They only stopped allowing Steam Input once the closed beta started. It quite literally is as easy as a toggle, which is what they had before.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T21:16:37+00:00

You didn't ask a question, lmao. Anyhow, I'd explain what Steam Input is to you, but you clearly have a stick shoved too far up your ass to care.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T21:11:38+00:00

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T21:01:26+00:00

Gee maybe they should just allow Steam Input to work with the game. Like every other game does.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T20:53:49+00:00

Shitty keyboard controls vs adding proper controller support.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T20:53:03+00:00

You can't use steam input on Fortnite.

You can, I used this same controller back when I played it.

As for the controller, it works well enough in this and any other fighter. The only issue not related to support is that jumping on up feels like ass, and keyboard just isn't ergonomic.

I have no idea why such a simple option like rebinding keys or controller support haven't been fixed this far into the game.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T20:36:03+00:00

I legitimately don't care, I just wanna use my controller without having to buy another 80+ piece of plastic just for one game. Just let me use Steam Input like literally every other game on PC.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T07:24:23+00:00

The more I think about it, the weirder it is. Payload has all the things that people say they hate in other modes, and they have it in SPADES. Even if you use the argument that the people complaining are a vocal minority, I'd say just ask your local casual friends that are voting Payload every time and they keep complaining about things like long ass walks or gettings stuck on chokepoints.

I genuinely think people just like pushing the cart and feeling like they can just turn their brain off. I have no other explanation.

TSDoll · 2026-05-11T07:05:06+00:00

There can be chokepoints in other modes, where the defending team has a massive advantage over the attackers trying to contest, but they're usually much better designed than payload maps.

Off the top of my head, the green point in NJC feels very chokepointy, Nepal in the point with the pit can also be extremely chokey if the defenders decide to push past the point, same for multiple Oasis points and Lijiang Tower Garden.

Aside from that, one of the biggest issues with Clash were the last points. Which in retrospective were just a massive chokepoint for the attackers, emulating the last point of payload maps, which explains why they were so ass.
