Issue Description (Required):

While holding the shift key, I can’t use the 1 or 2 keybindings - the numbers 3+ work just fine. I’ve restarted the client/computer, verified the integrity of my game files, switched operatives, and reset loadouts and talent trees - the issue persists. No idea where to go from here. Any suggestions?

No, I don’t use mods

Reproduction Rate (Required):

Constant (100%)

Platform (Required):

PC - Steam

Hi, it sounds like something else on your PC could be intercepting your inputs. Try loading Darktide after a ‘Selective Startup’ to see if the issue persists:

  1. Press the Windows key
  2. Type ‘msconfig’ and select ‘System Configuration’
  3. On the ‘General’ tab, select ‘Selective Startup’
  4. Deselect ‘Load Startup Items’
  5. Reboot your PC
  6. Launch Darktide as normal

It didn’t work, sadly; good thought though. If you have any other suggestions, I’m open to them.

Edit: I should add I’ve done further testing - this problem can be replicated on the ctrl and tab keys.
