    If you go into big picture mode then go to DBD within big picture mode there should be some presets to make the steam controller work properly.

    This is a result of a change to combat botting a lot time ago. Basically people would create macros to make a lobby, ready up, and then swing over and over. Rinse, repeat, easy points. The only option at the time was to disable "fake inputs" (software telling the computer, "Hey, this dude just pushes the left mouse button.") Problem is, that also meant that the Steam controllers, which rely on these fake inputs to actually function, don't work. I believe it's the same deal with the Steam Link.

    It's been a long time since that change happened, and nowadays it's much easier for botters to get reported and banned, so I'm not sure if they'd be willing to revert that change. It would be a lot more convenient for a lot of people, and the few extra bots that pop up wouldn't be hard to find and ban.
