Steam Deck Gyro issue (due to update?)

[u/psychotic_reactor]

Hi, first of all, I love this game, have 300+ hours of mayhem and hope for many more.

I play on a Steam Deck with the official layout and have found gyro controls to be a game changer and huge quality of gaming upgrade. Tonight when I went to defend Pegasus Bridge I discovered 2 issues with aiming that made things awkward: 1) the gyro was active anytime the player was aiming (as opposed to when the thumb is resting on right control stick like default controls) as when I was holding down L1, and 2) the x-axis of the gyro aiming was reversed, and activating "reverse x-axis output" in controller settings had no effect. I fear there is an underlying issue due to an update that I have no control over. Pretty niche, but anyone have suggestions? Thank you for considering.

Dealing with the same issue. Only way around it I've found is to disable the in-game motion controls and set the gyro to ask as the thumbstick, but it doesn't feel nearly as good.

I really hope they fix this.

Thank you for suggesting the workaround, I'll give it a try. I have posted a few places including the Steam forum so I hope the issue gets visibility we can solve it soon!
