Issue Description (Required):
Went to play Darktide for the first time since the last update and my controller mapping is exhibiting weird behavior. Although my preferred profile is Vermintide 2 Classic, it doesn’t matter which controller profile I use, the behavior is the same.
When I press the left D Pad to pull out a medkit, it pulls out the kit, but then it also brings up my inventory screen forcing me to lose a moment of situational awareness while I close the screen.
It does this in mission. It does this on the morning star (although it doesn’t whip out a med kit of course). And, it does this across more than one Xbox (tested on a friend’s).
Kind of driving me a little crazy because I don’t see anyone else complaining about it so it seems like it’s just me?
I tried deleting the local Xbox files with no joy. Any thoughts or assistance would be most appreciated. I feel like I’m missing something simple… :-/
Hmmm, I don’t have any experience with this unfortunately! I understand you’ve tried on your buddy’s Xbox, too - was that using their controller, or yours?
It was their controller but it was on my account logged into their XBox playing my characters in game.
Any possibility you could try using another controller on your console, for troubleshooting purposes?
Yup, already tried that. Multiple controllers, multiple Xboxes. The only thing I haven’t tried is a different person’s account who also owns the game on my Xbox. I’ll see if I can set that up, but it will probably have to wait a few days (maybe even the weekend - just depends).
Ok so I was able to have a friend login to my console and launch the game under their account. At first the game played the way I remembered (but this isn’t saying much since there’s no medkits in the game until the Psykanium training sessions). However, in that Psykanium training session, I was able to deploy medkits and ammo crates using left on the D-Pad with no issue. I figured ok this is progress. However, after the training sessions, when I arrived back on the morning star after the “reject initiation” cut scenes, I noticed a prompt that popped up saying something along the lines of “Press left on the D-Pad to bring up your inventory”. After that, it was right back to the same behavior of left D-Pad simultaneously deploying a crate and opening the inventory.
So it seems to me like this is an intentional game design configuration change but again - if it is - how come I’m the only one who notices/cares about it? 
Ok. Just had two different friends who both own the game on Xbox reinstall and test this. They both experience the same thing I do:
Pressing left on the d-pad simultaneously pulls out a medkit and also opens up the inventory screen. Seems more and more like a problem on your guys side…. 
Hi,
Any update on this? I noticed that the behavior is still present after the most recent patch. Are you able to repro this on your side? Any confirmation that this is in fact a thing?
Sorry I missed your replies, Treadstone - I’ll check if this issue is already recorded in our database, and I’ll raise it if not.
@FatsharkJulia Hey - I’ve been logging in intermittently over the past 6 months to check whether this is still an issue or not and just today I noticed that this is resolved. However, I’m also on a different console in a different time zone… I tested different consoles 6 months ago and they didn’t make a difference.
So - I’m curious - did this get resolved? Or did I just happen to find a console that doesn’t have this issue?
I’ve been checking all the intervening patch notes and have never seen anything specifically referencing this issue or a fix for it.
