Summarize your bug My character is stuck in crouch position - Stands up when I open the map or press ESC but goes back to crouch when I exit either of those. This has persisted from logging out of a server into a new one. Continues after I close the game and restart origin/steam. Continues after restarting PC. I have repaired game files. Still today I cannot play the game as my character can only move around in the crouch position.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? No idea.
What happens when the bug occurs? Cant exit the crouch animation in any game mode.
What should be happening instead? I should be able to play the game I paid for.

  • Uninstalled - refunded the game on steam.

    Re purchased on origin - reinstalled.

    Still crouching

    This one is beyond me

  • Hi I bought the game last week as well and since then I have the exact same problem. Have you found any solution yet? 

    Otherwise we probably have to wait for the hotfixes in early December :/

  • First time I got it I followed a "fix" and deleted all maps in C:\ProgramData\Origin except LocalContent.

    Now this "fix" doesn't work for me and it's permanent....in crouch.

    Doesnt work with, leave the game, reboot PC, repair game, uninstall/install.

    Try unplugging keyboard and use a different one or just plug original back in.

    Somehow worked for me after all those fix's

  • Does that mean the crouch problem is fixed for you only with unplugging the keyboard? Or am I misunderstanding here something :'D

    Correct - for me the issue was fixed once I unplugged my keyboard and tried a different one. It continued to work when I then plugged in my old keyboard. So somehow it was a keyboard config issue and unplugging the keyboard cleared it.

    I did replicate the issue and it has something to do with trying to bind the crouch/slide option to a mouse key. I cant explain why but it happened again however this time i just reset key binds and he stood right back up again.

  • The Bug have to do with the Chatsystem.
    Especially when u type an Symbol like -> \ @ " [ ] { } * /

    It is reproducable.

    100% possible Workaround:

    Delete the Cache Folder in the Documents of ur PC and start the Game.

    With Update 3.2 it is still not fixed.. i hope EA/DICE enjoy my 89 Euros ...

  • I'm experiencing this same thing. vehicles and para/bat suit works just fine but once I'm on 2 feet...it stays in crouch. Which I could deal with in close quarters but it takes 5 times longer to crouch over  hundreds of meters between objectives. It makes the game unplayable except for Sundance. Add all the other bugs and this game is quickly becoming unplayable.

  • I'm playing on PS4 and plugging off, changing controllers, rebooting are not working.
