So I've decided to buy a CCU days ago, but want to wait until the next generation of CCU is released. Then I thought, why not buying the actual CCU before the next gen is released because it wouldn't be that expensive and I'd really like to get that controller, so I've started reading some reviews about Stadia and CCU.
Now there is that little tiny fact, that immediately suspended my demand: CCU has no K/M support.
I really love playing games via gamepad, but when it's a game, where you need to aim, I'd never play it without k/m. I've tried it several times playing Tomb Raider/Seriou Sam, but I am just horrible at that and feel entirely limited when aiming with a thumbstick.
Is there any special kind of keyboard and mouse, that works similar to the Stadia Gamepad? Or is there any official statement regarding k/b support in future Chromecast generations? Afaik, the next CCU will have full Android support, but when playing Stadia on mobile, I realised, that the app doesn't support k/m as on PC. When trying the Android chrome app in desktop mode, the keyboard works without any issues, but the Android mouse pointer isn't recognized by the Stadia webpage.
Thanks in advance, I really hope that I find a way to use something else than controllers for Chromecast or Android devices.
@Yashishi As of right now, no, I'm afraid there isn't a way to use a keyboard and mouse to play Stadia on a Chromecast or mobile phone. I'm sure that the mobile situation could change to support that in the future, but I'm not sure that the Chromecast one will. As far as I know, there hasn't been any official word on whether that's something we can look forward to but I'd suggest using the feedback option in the Stadia app to let the developers know it's something you want to see.
Hi @Yashishi I think it is a conceptual question. but I think that the Cc, technologically It is apt to accept a K / m. it is a matter of decision and the desire that this be done by the company
