Movement and input locked bug

I'm experiencing a strange bug since this morning (for context, I was playing until 11PM MT last night). Running and moving in a direction will frequently lock my character movement in that direction, relative to the direction my character is facing. My character then floats in that direction, and rotating my character with my mouse continues their movement according to the direction my character is facing.

While this happens, my keyboard locks up as well. none of the keys do anything, my mouse buttons don't do anything either. I can't shoot, aim down sights, crouch, etc. I can confirm it's not an internet issue or lag issue, because other player characters move around and can shoot and kill me in real time.

I've restarted the game, restarted my computer, plugged and unplugged my mouse and keyboard, and I've run a malware scan.

    I'm having the same issues and where the character stops moving, or doesn't respond to jumping or crouching. Will randomly start moving to the left. I've found that if I have youtube or twitch open is when it happens the worst even though my ram and cpu aren't at 100%. It gets better when I close these but still not perfect. Did not have this problem last weekend.

  • Be aware that there is a new game setting for auto-run. There's definitely some movement/input bugs, but at least some of the time I'm pretty sure I've just accidentally activated auto-run.

    Maybe make sure that auto-run is turned off and see if it keeps happening.

    I'll have a look. I'll say though from a QA perspective, auto-run shouldn't be doing this. It completely locks my keyboard and mouse buttons, and it often forces me to move backwards, rather than running forward.
