[Resolved] Keyboard movement issues in Fallout 76
Hello Everyone,

This is kind of hard to explain, but I thing I really need some help with this and I hope I'm not the only one who is having these issues.

I just logged into Fallout 76 and started walking around, the moment I stop my movement and want to start moving again, the movement keys W A S D are not responsive.

I have to do a 180 degree turn of my mouse or spam space to be able to move.

Clicking any the movement keys, does not work, until I do half a circle with my mouse.

I have checked with 2 different keyboards and the issue is there.

I am playing on Fullscreen, but the issue is on Borderless windows as well.

Can't be an FPS issue, since I am getting over 100 FPS in the start of the game.

Anyone experienced the same thing ? Looking for help

I had the same issue as soon as I unlocked the framerate. I had to use the Nvidia control panel to make the game locked at 180fps, because once it hit 200+ it was locking my character in place at times where I couldn't move.

If you unlocked the framerate for the game, make sure it's locked to less than 200fps as even the loading screens can surpass 200fps and create an issue once loaded in.

Thank you very much, capping the FPS at 180 from the Nvidia Control Panel fixed the issue and I can play once again ! :)
