Game-breaking input bug

 As of recent, I have been experiencing persistent input issues when using a gamepad. The problem occurs randomly, but consistently, in every match I’ve played. It does not occur when using keyboard and mouse, and so far appears to be limited exclusively to gamepad use.

I’ve tested the issue with both a PS5 DualSense (my primary controller) and an Xbox One controller, and both exhibit the same behavior.

I’ve also disabled Steam Input while testing with the Xbox controller, but the problem still persisted — suggesting Steam Input is likely not the cause. Additionally, I have tested this across four different PCs, all running unmodded copies of the game on Steam, and the issue was present on all systems.

To further demonstrate the issue, I’ve linked three clips showing the bug occurring just today — these are only a small sample of how frequently it happens. I’ve also included a YouTube video of myself walking around Takodana in an offline match, where the problem still occurs. These examples clearly show how widespread and persistent this bug is.

    It is not my input device. I have had this occur on multiple PCs, multiple PS5 DualSense controllers, and a brand new Xbox controller.

    I can guarantee this occurs with only a single input device. Technically, I haven’t tried unplugging the keyboard, but in my test only one gamepad and the keyboard were plugged in.

  • make sure only on of them is plugged in and no other game pads or driving wheels

  • Note: In the footage, I’m using some visual mods just to change the button prompts to PlayStation style, and I’ve made a mod to restore the lens flares. However, I also have an unmodded system right next to that one, which has never had any mods installed, and it’s experiencing the exact same problem.
