Summarize your bug Sprint does not work on PC using controller or using Shift on the keyboard. Everybody else is sprinting in game but i am unable to. This did work for a few games and then it suddenly stopped. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game several times to try and fix. This affects all game modes. This is not an issue with my PC as it does not happen on any other game
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I am unsure. It is when i am trying to play Battlefield 2042 only. This happens every game and makes the game unplayable
What happens when the bug occurs? I am not able to sprint
What should be happening instead? I should be sprinting!

  • I can't Sprint either. It comes and goes but 90% of the time I can't Sprint. Using an elite 2 controller on PC.

    I use a Scuf Prestige. I just recently fixed this issue. Turns out it was not an issue with the game. I had to “loosen” my triggers a little bit and it fixed the issue. Not sure why this caused a problem with the sprint. 
    But maybe if you have the option to tighten and loosen your trigger sensitivity that might help you 

  • I can’t sprint at all I restart my pc and it fixed the problem but then it starts happening again and restarting the pc doesn’t work but when ever I hit Esc it would pull the knife out and start swinging 

  • I'm having the same issue. This is something that happened on launch. Assuming they havent fixed it. I would just stop playing it waste of money on skins and battle pass just to have a core function not work. I tried everything. The same problem I had 2 years ago still not fixed.
