Character keeps moving while holding ability button

11

I just got the game the other day and this has been bugging me quite a bit, it's most noticeable while using WASD movement/no movement on mouse.

While moving in any direction (let's say you're holding W to go forward), hold down one of the buttons to fire a gun/do an ability attack. While holding that down, let go of W. Every time the gun/ability is on cooldown (and you're still holding that ability button), your character will keep running forward (or whatever direction you were initially holding).

It's a bit odd and appears to happen with all weapons/classes/abilities. It's frustrating to deal with while in the middle of combat.

Can you confirm this is not a case of key jamming? This is fairly common for WASD+[1-4] setups.

It's 100% not key jamming. I also see others on the Steam forum that have mentioned this bug.

Although I haven't replied, our team found the problem. As it is a lower priority issue we will deal with it only in the long run but we certainly will. 

Thanks for bringing this matter to our attention!

It's been just shy of 2 years since I posted this thread, is this bug still planned to be fixed? I put the game aside since it was incredibly frustrating to deal with, and I'm pretty disappointed to return and see that it's still happening..

As things stand now, the console team doesn't plan to make any changes in this regard. Sorry for the bad news.

What do you mean the console team? Is the PC version not being worked on anymore..?
And what happened to what you said nearly two years ago, "we will deal with it only in the long run but we certainly will." ?

There is a different team working on the console version than on the PC version.


There are many higher priority issues to this day and I don't see that this issue will be fixed.

I'm just not sure why the console version was mentioned, this issue is for the PC version.

Just chiming in to say that this is still a very frustrating issue. It may not be a priority for most, but I'd like to humbly and respectfully request another look be taken at this problem. If it's not too difficult to fix, I know it would definitely make some people, myself included, very happy to see it come across the patch notes as resolved.


Thanks for confirming the issue & at least looking at it, though.
