Vehicle not moving forward on PS4 (and other problems)

Hi,

A couple days ago I was playing BF4, got in a tank, drove it... and got stuck in the middle of the road. When I pressed R2, I would hear the engine but the tank wouldn't move.

Ever since, on every server, the problem remains : I can go backwards, shoot, etc etc... but with R2 all vehicles stay stationnary, even though the trigger works perfectly well in menus and when outside vehicles.

When I map the controls differently, everything works : the vehicle moves forward and the R2 button does whatever it's configured to do. But that's far less practical, and that's not the only problem :

- ever since this first problem, when I reach the BF4 title screen, I have to put the controller off then on again for the game to acknowledge I'm pressing "options".

- same thing happens in the "crop" videos menu of the PS4 system. Nothing works until I put the controller off and back on.

- my solo campaign save has been erased.

I have tried to uninstall/reinstall the game, nothing has changed.

Any solutions please?

    @Fnac2013 that is a weird issue and should usually get caused by corrupted data, which cannot be the case as you have already tried to re-install the game. I recommend to reset your PS4 console and check if that workaround is able to get rid of your issue:

    To reset your PS4 properly, try the following workaround:

    Starting the PS4 in Safe Mode

    1. Turn off the PlayStation 4 by pressing the power button on the front panel. The power indicator will blink for a few moments before turning off.
    2. Once the PlayStation 4 is off, press and hold the power button. Release it after you've heard two beeps: one when you initially press, and another 7 seconds later.
    3. Connect the DualShock 4 controller with the provided USB cable and press the PS button on the controller.
    4. The following options are available in Safe Mode:

      1. Restart System - Ends Safe Mode and restarts the PlayStation 4 normally.

    Cheers
