  • Having game breaking bug where my sprinting is canceled every few seconds it also cancels when I slide jump or open my inventory while sprinting on console, I dont use auto sprint nor double tap sprint, my controller works perfectly, tried sprinting on other games and had no issues at all, so it isn't a problem with the controller, I had this bug a few seasons ago and it got patched but now I have it again ☹️

    Hey Legends!

    An update recently rolled out, and I wanted to see if everyone who ran into this issue can confirm if this is still happening or not?

    Thanks, 

  • I recently downloaded Apex for my series x. I have tried multiple legends and settings and I cannot get my legend to sprint. I have tried changing settings. This happened to me before when I created a second account on my ps4. When I return to my original apex account on ps4 I could sprint again. I ignored the problem back then but since one account could sprint. Any help greatly appreciated! I am currently unable to play due to this 

  • I’m having the same issue on PS4. It started when Fight Night did. Every game, every map, every legend. Makes it pretty unplayable and I’m trying to complete the battle pass.

    An update went out today meant to address a few reported issues, can you confirm if this issue is still happening? 

  • I am still getting the issue but not almost as much as before, I played earlier on Olympus and Kings Canyon and it only happened once or twice. Thank you!

  • The issue did get better after your last reply but it has come back again now that season 8 has started. It’s really difficult to play again, especially when under fire from another team.
