New Keyboard = Drifting Issues, but only in Paladins?

[kevclev]

I bought the Razer Huntsman v2 Analog, and when I play paladins, my character starts drifting perspective towards the sky and starts sidestepping slightly. This doesn't happen in any other game other than Paladins. I've tried many combinations of fixes, and can't seem to isolate anything causing it. When I unplug my new keyboard, it resolves it, but there is no issue between my keyboard and any other game. The drift only happens in Paladins. I've verified files already, and everything seems to be fine.

Any idea what's going on?

You can't fix it, its a paladins thing, it always drifts when you were moving then stop. Its like everyone is playing on ice.

For real? I'm over here trying to figure out if something is wrong with my keyboard, but it's just in Paladins. So you get that too then? I can't imagine it's like...everyone who plays on PC on keyboard has to deal with that, so it must just be some keyboards have compatibility issues or something?

Unfortunately, I'm sure its tied to the movement system in place where it wants to maintain momentum.

Yeah no, it's not normal, I didn't have a problem till I got the same keyboard qmd yeah now the slow sidestep to the left and the look up the the sky. Not a momentum thing its definitely ghost input and I imagine it's cause our keyboard sends tons of data back to the keyboard and somethings crossing wires with paladins.

No, it's because of the keyboard itself. If it was the movement system in the game it would affect a lot of players except it generally only happens when the match server is having lagg issues which causes the ice skating effect.

You can look the keyboard up, but it's sending more movement information to the game than is needed and causing drift. It's similar to a gamepad that has joystick drift issues which leads me to think they are running the keyboard in analog mode which makes it act like a gamepad and giving them drift issues.

Mouse and Keyboard players rarely experience drift, and I've only had drift issues in two instances, one was a bad server causing the Ice Skating effect and the other was when I had a controller plugged in that was causing the movement to drift because of the joystick. The Ice Skating effect will effect everyone in the match and not just one player, so it can't be that if only the OP was experiencing the issue.

Thanks everyone. I did what any man would do and got myself a better keyboard, then gave the old one to my wife and told her it was really great. She was so thankful, and now she's using it none-the-wiser lol
