Deadlock: How to select or level skill on controller? (reddthat.com)

Is there a way to select or level up a skill on a controller?

Select will open the screen to where I can grab a separate mouse and interact with these. I tried holding down select and then the skill button but that didn’t seem to work.

Please note - I’m talking about the 4 skills on the bottom - the ones you’d want to be able to easily select on the fly while in lane.

Thanks.

I mean, it's not released.

About This Game

EARLY DEVELOPMENT BUILD

Deadlock is still in early development stages with lots of temporary art and experimental gameplay.

LIMITED ACCESS

Access to Deadlock is currently limited to friend invites via our playtesters.

It's not even Early Access.

Like, if you want to play it at this point, you're gonna get something that isn't done. It's hopefully playable, but...shrugs

My apologies, when I said released I meant released for public testing / playing (ie, it's current state).

I've played a little with keyboard and mouse as well as a controller (using community settings) and currently it very much feels like it would be difficult to play with a controller (I'd like to stress I'm hoping and happy to be proven wrong about that further down the line).

My surprise was that Valve have brought about a game like Deadlock which currently (to me) feels very much like a keyboard and mouse only game. Again, looking forward to that potentially changing.

Maybe try actually playing it on the deck then? How are you even gonna complain about something you haven't tried, for a game no where near done.

I have played on my deck. All the keys are mapped and you can easily play the game with all of the controls.

I didn't mean to sound like I was complaining, I was trying to express my surprise.

I said in my comment I'd used a controller to play on PC. When I played Deadlock (a week or two ago) the controls were most certainly not configured (at least not via PC + wired controller) hense the community keybinds.

The only thing I can suggest is; either there has been an update in the last week which has added support or it's configured for the Deck but not PC+controller yet.
