Yep, totally the port. Couldn't POSSIBLY be an issue with your system.

Happens to me all the time. Especially when I'm fighting a high level Defender. The WSAD keys start acting all crazy, I can't see through the flashbangs and then I die!!! The game is cursed I tell you, cursed!!

Sarcasm senses are tingling. I am not a computer guru, so will you please help point out some of the things I can look for to fix?

problem is in your system, first go to device manager / human interface devices, and there you will see a list of HID copliant devices, disable them all.
If you have a controller plugged in disabling all of them will disable the controller too so mind that.

Next thing, windows has some virtual controller thingy going on, google somehting about how to disable it, it is somewhere in control panel but that's as far as I know,

My apologies. I'm just spoiled with most all games through Steam working just fine from the jump with the the keyboard and mouse.

I will most certainly give this a shot. This info is new to me, hopefully I do it right and I don't mess anything else up. I appreciate you and your patience. I am a big MGS fan, I've played all of them. I bought this on PC because I thought I would get more precise control in the gameplay. I already own this on PS4, but I refused to play it because I didn't want to experience this MGSV with the controller. I love the PS4 controller when I'm playing games like Axiom Verge, but not FPS of TPS. I've never used a controller on my PC. Thanks again! I hope your input fixes my problem!

you cannot mess this up, if you disable something and PC starts misbehaving you can always re-enable that

Ouch, wish I would have noticed this sooner. The only thing that No_Quarter left out is that prior to disabling all HID devices in the device manager, you should first determine which one(s) control the mouse and keyboard. The goal is to disable all HID devices except the Mouse and Keyboard as it can be a pain getting them to work again if you don't.

This is done by opening the Device manager, expanding the HID section then unplug the mouse and plug it back in. Watch for which one goes away when you unplug the mouse and which one comes back when you plug it back in. Do the same with the keyboard. Those are the ones not to disable. All others should be disabled.

A little worried for the guy since that was not said and he did say he "wasn't a computer guru". Just going through and disabling them all in one shot could very well leave him not being able to control his computer at all without the knowledge of how to get them working again.

If the User finds himself in this situation and has any other means of getting here, then here's a possible quick fix solution......

If all HID devices are disabled and your keyboard and mouse stops working, in theory you should be able to just unplug the keyboard and mouse and plug them back in to any other USB port EXCEPT the one(s) that they were plugged into. Most of the time, this will reset the drivers as they are usually port specific and plugging them into a different port will recognize them as a device that has never been plugged up to the system before. Although you may find yourself not being able to use that device (keyboard, mouse or both) plugged into the original port, even you unplug them and plug them back into the original port. If this is the case, you can use a different port for the mouse to re-enable the first port again. You may have to use the keyboard to enable the original mouse port for the mouse to work in the original port again. Unless you happen to have a 2nd USB mouse, then you could a 2nd mouse to re-enable the original mouse.

Hope this helps if you find yourself in that situation.

Right on my friends. I will take this into account! Thank you for taking the time to explain how some of this stuff works Geekdoctor, it helps a great deal! And thanks again, No_Quarter. I will respond if I still have issues.

Hello, i have this problem as well. In my case the culprit was the steam overlay. Most of the time, i press ctrl+tab or whatever that bring up the overlay, my control is not respond. I do it again a few times, and working fine after, i got back the control. So try disabling steam overlay, maybe help! Sorry for my bad english.

yeah this actually solved problems with controls vefore
hahahaha teh camera isnt even anywhere NEAR as ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ retarded as snipers being able to see you through solid objects on the FOB. They STILL have not patched that 2 years ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ later.
That and the ai being able to spot you in the support core room through the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ floor, I really hate it when that happens because unlike the snipers I have not been able to figure out what exactly triggers it

I haven't seen that one before. Now I feel lucky. Although, it's probably the same reason why if there are AI soldiers down there and you throw a sleep grenade on top of them the floor above it will put them to sleep.

Game works perfectly on my system, you must have issues with your keyboard or your computer itself.
