I had an issue in ground where I couldn't zoom (using Shift) with driving forward or backwards W/S

Not sure if its new bindings, or something changed; but I had to go to aircraft controls, and remove Shift + W for selecting primary weapons.

your key binds restarted to basic settings after update ? i had this before and lost all binds for termals , rockets etc

they recently added in new key bindings the use shift+w,a,s,d,q,e as default. or at least for me. check under weaponry> lock guided bombs, exit weapon selection, switch primary and secondary weapons, secondary weapon ripple quantity.

had to unbind them all as i dont use them at the moment. will bind them later when i do.

Hopefully this fixes my issue as well. Far as I'm concerned, keybindings should NEVER be something altered by a game developer in updates unless absolutely necessary and it should be announced through popups as to what was added/changed, something you have to click past to continue playing. Its a horrible feeling to have your keybinds messed up like this without knowing why.

Yeah, the fix above does the trick though. They bound things to the W key and C key when holding left shift. So if you're like me and use OddbawZ setup from his CAS tutorial video, then using left shift did nothing because Gaijin bound weaponry selections to it. Just unbind those and it works again.
