Controls on computer issues

[mcav]

I can't even play the game with a keyboard on the computer. It tells me to hit "any" key, but nothing works and I just lose. Cut scenes are also way too slow, I end up clicking to skip them.

Any chance you reworked your keybinds? I believe there was a glitch with that being looked into.

I have exactly that same problem. Whatever I click on is totally unresponsive.

I play on the keyboard: When it says any key it means the 4 arrow buttons only

EDIT: It appears this issue may be the product of user error. Keeping this post up for posterity, but I wanted to include this disclaimer first.
-------------------

Just throwing my hat in the ring here and saying keyboard controls are thoroughly broken. They seem to default to controller buttons, and will only function for a split second should you use the arrow keys before immediately returning to controller format. This has rendered it impossible to hold down buttons, as the button is only considered "held" for a split second before going back to controller mode.

This is a downright debilitating glitch, especially as I frankly have no interest in playing CSF with a controller, so I hope it's dealt with ASAP!

I click on the arrow keys but that doesn't help. Others are having this issue It seems to be a problem with using keyboard instead of a game controller. can this be fixed so it can be easily played on a keyboard?

I remapped to use wasd and thats okay but the button input screen is so small that I can't always tell what letter to push and who ever decided white letter on white background seriously. I love the franchise but sad I spent money

I don't think this is an issue we've heard of before. Do you mind sharing your specs and any other details of this glitch? Is your gamepad turned on and somehow interfering? Thanks in advance and we'll look into this.

update: I checked in with our lead designer: Is there a chance that your gamepad is plugged in and the analog stick is pressed in a direction? This is something that happened to them as well.

I'm afraid at this moment I don't recall my exact specs, and it'll take me a little while to be back at my desktop to get them. As far as I can tell, no controller was plugged in. As far as how the glitch manifested, the buttons displayed the controller inputs by default, flickering to show the arrow keys when I pressed one. It allowed me to make individual button inputs, but the problems arose when I was asked to hold down any of the arrow keys.

If I had to guess, the game was specifically acting as if I were holding "Up" on a gamepad. Whenever I entered menus, it would default to the top option and refuse to move unless I used my mouse specifically, but I would like to reiterate that no controller was plugged in at the time. I will update this post once I'm back at my desktop and provide my specs.

EDIT 1: I have made an attempt at playing the game on my laptop, and keyboard controls are working. At this point, I'm forced to assume the flaw must lie on my end somewhere, though I'll still provide my specs once I'm back at my desktop. I'll also edit my initial post to indicate as such.

Thanks for the update. Yeah unfortunately this sounds like something on your end with the game sensing a controller input. Let us know if you figure it out, and we'll let you know if we think of anything else that might help!
