Movement keys not working at times

At random times when I first start to play, my movement keys (WASD) won't work. They are bound to movement and work at any other time, but at random times when I start to play the game (meaning I start the game and I go to play the first game of the day) movement keys won't work. However, when I hit the rolling/dodge button without pressing the movement keys, I will actually roll in whatever direction, even when I'm standing still which tells me that more than one movement key is being registered. If I spam the movement keys for a little bit, a random direction will be selected and I will just walk in that direction. I can still jump, aim, and shoot, but moving seems to not work. It isn't a keyboard issue either because it works in any other game I play.

However when I restart my PC, everything seems to go back to normal. Not restarting the game, but restarting my PC fixes it. 

Any fixes for this?

    Hi @Degree234 .  

    I had a similar issues on occasion. Here are some. reasons the keys don't work.

    1. You have opened a chat window. Make sure you are not hitting ENTER while playing.

    2. Overlay from Discord or other, could cause a hiccup. Disable overlay and try again,  Always reboot after changes.

    3. Escape key was hit. Hit it again to remove. Also try Alt-Tab the clear a background notification.  Turn those off too.

    4. Programmed key was hit without and endpoint.  No enter to close it, so turn that off and try again.

    5. Was downloading another game in the background and while it was slow to loading, I had huge lags which caused the keys to not respond with response. To fix this, reboot the modem and stop all streaming thru your connection when playing. 

    6. You can always try another keyboard to confirm it not a bad one.....

    Hope these help your experience..
