Issue Description (Required):
Sometimes my combat inputs get stuck.
I can still move around (WASD), but weapon attacks/push/blocks are bugged. My character will swing, the sound of the attack will be weird but no attacks register.
Weapon swap is also stuck when this happens.
The monsters still hit me and I still take damage, everything else in the game looks ‘normal’, but I’m stuck in that “input glitch” state and waiting does not help.
This will be accompanied by stutters and the sound of the attacks seems to be glitched too.
For example, I use often the combat knife, and when bugged I can try to swing it (ex: light attack) and it does over and over a high pitch swing sound and the attacks don’t register.
I can play entire games without issue, then have this happen 3 times in the same game.
The only reliable solution is to kill my game (Alt-F4) to rejoin my team asap.
It’s been happening since the launch of the game, over all the iterations of the game and many different drivers (AMD 6800 XT), and still happens in 2025.
It happens on multiple classes (Zealot, Psyker, Vet) with multiple weapons.
Steps to Reproduce (Required):
It is intermittent, I don’t know exactly what causes it.
It seems to get triggered more often when I’m getting shot at (displacement effect) by a Reaper/Dreg Gunner and I get displaced while trying to initiate other actions (move/attack/slide, etc), then it sometimes gets me in that bugged state. Maybe that gives you (the devs) some insight on the root cause. (Displacement/suppress effect at the same time the player initiate actions could lead to a bugged state?)
It seems worst with Combat Knife, maybe the fast attacks/moveset play a role in this.
But it also happens with other weapons (ex: DS).
