I can only move forward

[Big Smoke]

This is something i only appear to be experiencing but sometimes at the start of a game all of my move buttons cause me to move forward. Sometimes it works fine but other times not so much. Also when i press jump my charector just seems to do a squat. after a while of not being able to do anything my charector just dies... any help?

If you hold jump you sit down. If he collapses, it's because you went AFK. If you're playing on a controller, or have one plugged in by accident, the usual things could make you move in a straight line forward.

Make sure this doesnt happen in other games, sounds like its a hardware issue...

I do have a similar issue in binding of issac where occasionaly i can only move in one direction and keep shooting in the same direction... however unpluging the keyboard and plugging it back in fixes that issue. I tried this in gang beast and it did not solve the issue

I think this is due to an issue where Gang Beasts doesn't properly recognise where your character is. Your character isn't really moving in one direction, but the character the game shows you is. There's an invisible you moving in the directions you tell it to. That's what happens to me sometimes, at least. There's no real way to fix it, as far as I can tell. An easy way to test if this is happening is to make your fake character (the one that only walks in one direction) walk off the edge. If the camera follows it and they don't actually die, then this is the case. (They don't actually die because, although your fake character walked off the edge, your real, invisible character is safe and sound.)
