Hello,
My keys don’t always work in game any longer. It’s almost like they are ‘sticking’. Whether I play directly on my laptop keyboard, or my wireless keyboard, I may have to hit a key several times before I can move, open my bags, use the ‘escape’ key, etc. It makes the game unplayable. I can’t enjoy combat because I can’t always turn. Sometimes I have to hit the w/a/s/d key 3 or 4 times before it moves. This just started happening this week. I do not believe it is lag. I have a direct fiber optic line into my house. I get less than a 13ms ping. This does not happen to any other game I play.
Thanks

I have experienced the exact same thing. Hitting the movement keys and there is no response in game.

Not sure if this is the same problem, but I get stuck in place sometimes and it doesn’t matter how many times I press movement keys or turn keys or both mouse buttons to move they are unresponsive. The only way I can get out of that state is if I use an ability which involves movement like a leap. I already happened to me several times and I’m usually engaged in action that requires fast tapping or multiple keys tapped at the same time.

I think i figured it out!!! if i run the client (64-bit) from a shortcut it happens but if I run it from the folder (direct client) it works just fine. This is what happens for me anyway.
