Cyberpunk - latest update - lost the ability to crouch

1 Upvotes

Anyone come access this bug before? I'm trying to run away from the big Chimera robot thing in 'Spider & the fly' & you have to dive under a door in an on-rails section.

https://youtu.be/6gXvnBlTzPM?t=1702

I can't get my character to crouch/drive at all. It's getting a bit tedious. The ability has just gone. Pressing 'B' doesn't work on my Xbox controller, & nor do any of the KB shortcuts.

Is this a Bug that can be fixed?? I can't progress any further without being able to crouch/slide
Cheers!

p.s I hate boss battle in general but this is getting especially frustrating 🙈

(I'm using an Apple M1 Max Studio 10 core cpu/32 core gpu, 64Gb Ram in case thats relevant. Up until this bug it's been running like a dream)

Advice on Upgrades

7 Upvotes

I’ve been an Xbox for about 15ish years and still enjoy it, but I’m looking to get something new to play titles that I can’t play on Xbox like Spider-Man, Last of Us, God of War, etc. I’m down to 3 different options but would love to hear feedback and some recommendations.

Steam Machine: I love the idea of having the power and capability of a gaming PC all packaged up into a console. It would feel familiar and I can play the games I haven’t been able to play on Xbox, I just don’t know anyone personally who has one and could give me feedback on it

Gaming PC: I’m open to the idea of getting into PC gaming, but it’s just uncharted territory for me and I know very little about PC in general, like when to upgrade hardware and general maintenance. If I went this way I’d be open to trying out MaK, but have a feeling I’d still would hook up an Xbox controller or a controller that feels somewhat like it

PS5: While I’ve been an Xbox loyalist all my life, I still wouldn’t mind getting a PS5 to play the games I haven’t been able to play.

Just additional context, I have my Xbox in the living room currently, but whatever I get next will be set up on a desk with a monitor most likely. Price-wise, I’m willing to spend whatever seems most practical, would rather fork over extra to get what makes the most sense for me. Would love to hear feedback from you guys!

I've tried everything - Random lags while gaming

weird finicky input lag making me crazy :<

1 Upvotes

I've been having this really weird input issue for a couple months now and I'm kinda running out of things to try :<

It started in Phasmophobia, but then slowly started happening in other games too, like Roblox, Star Citizen, Escape the Backrooms, Burglin' Gnomes, Super Battle Golf, Meccha Chameleon, and probably a few others I'm forgetting.

What happens

Every 5–10 seconds or so, my movement gets super delayed or inaccurate.

Like I'll tap W for maybe one second, but it takes like half a second to react, and then my character keeps walking for another 2–3 seconds even though I already let go.

It happens with WASD and Space. Sometimes the key doesn't register, gets super delayed, or acts like I'm still holding it after I've let go. It's almost like it randomly picks which input to respond to and then holds it way longer than it should.

It genuinely feels like someone else is controlling my movement at the same time lol.

The weird part is that it's not constant. Sometimes I can play completely fine for a while, but eventually it comes back.

Important stuff

  • My mouse is completely fine
  • FPS stays normal
  • no stuttering
  • no obvious CPU/GPU spikes
  • happens in fullscreen, borderless and windowed
  • no controllers/joysticks/etc. connected
  • I don't notice it while typing normally outside of games

My main keyboard is a YUNZII C98 Cake Meow, used wired, but I've also tried another keyboard, another cable, and both front + rear USB ports. Nothing changed.

I also tested software that shows my key presses, and when the issue happens it sometimes shows the key as being held longer than I'm physically holding it. So I'll let go of W, but the input display can still show W as pressed.

Things I've tried

  • reinstalling NVIDIA drivers
  • disabling/closing Logitech G HUB
  • overlays on and off
  • another keyboard + cable
  • front and rear USB ports
  • different monitor refresh rates
  • fullscreen/borderless/windowed

Reinstalling the NVIDIA driver has sometimes seemed to help temporarily, but other times it does nothing.

Specs

CPU: Intel Core i7-14700K
GPU: RTX 4070
RAM: 32GB Corsair Dominator
Motherboard: NZXT N7 Z790
OS: Windows 11 Pro N, version 25H2, Build 26200
Monitor: LG UltraGear 45GX950A, 5120x2160, 165Hz / 330Hz Dual Mode

At this point I genuinely have no clue what could be causing it. Could it be something with Windows input handling, USB/chipset drivers, HID drivers, DPC latency, or something else system-level????

I really need help figuring this out because it's getting super annoying and makes some games basically unplayable.

If anyone has had something similar or knows what I should test next, I'd really appreciate it!!

UPDATE!
I was able to find out where it happens, it start only when i play star citizen, and then it affects every game i play after that until i restart my pc.

Game keeps crashing while playing constantly error message: 0x0000005

My friend's modern warfare 4 keeps crashing while we're playing and it happens almost every time he tries to play. He keeps getting the error message 0x0000005 (0x00000000) N. Is there any way to fix this? He tried verifying the game's files over and over but it doesn't work. He also reinstalled the game too.

Playing games after brain injury

1 Upvotes

Can’t seem to play any games online after my brain injury. When I say “Can’t seem to play any games” I don’t mean I can’t play them, I’m just really bad at them.

I just want to at least stand a chance when I play games online, I am fine in single player games, it’s just when I’m against real players, I stand no chance.

Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Life of strange game glitching

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Downloaded the game (Life is strange) from steamrip and played it on Gamenative. I'm using my Xiaomi pad 7 for gaming. Tried to fix the problem by lowering graphics and resolution both in gamenative and the game itself but the glitch still won't go away. The game isn't lagging, just glitching through. Can anybody please help me how to fix this?? 😭😭

Also I don't have problems with it heating up or crashing, just glitching.

My monitor is 4k but every game I play defaults to 8k, and some of them don’t allow me to change it, in windows I have my resolution set to 4k so I’m unsure what the problem is, could it be something in AMDs software? I’m using a 7800x3d and a 9070xt

I usually play genshin on ipad but today i decided to try it on my pc too, i downloaded the launcher and game from genshin's website and now whenever i try to login to game it shows this connection error. I know it's not my internet since I use the same internet and it works fine on other devices and i am able to login game on other devices it's just on my pc . I tried allowing the game through windows firewall, changed the dns, used cmd to flush dns but still nothing fixed it.

Sometimes I can login but most of the time it's this error, I've reinstalled everything, restarted both the game/launcher and my pc.
