BUG: Mismatched controller/hand position
Occasionally this bug randomly occurs at the start of a match and persists for the duration of the game, until the next map is chosen and loaded. Restarting the steam controller does nothing to fix it, either.

The nature of this bug is very specific, too. Always with the right hand only (my dominant hand), and relative to my physical controller, the avatars hand is floating about a foot to the right and rotated 90 degrees ccw.

So if I were holding a pistol, the in game hand would be floating off to the right, with palm facing down.

If this were only a visual glitch it would be bearable, but in order to grab anything the avatars hand must be touching it, making this bug extremely inconvenient. I find myself having to contort my arm in strange positions when dealing with it.

I get something similar to this sometimes, like only my right(dominant) hand gets rotated in an awkward angle that makes no sense.
Last match I played the right hand was literally backwards looking at me.

This happened to me earlier - I think tracking screwed up at some point before the game began (if the door to my room opens a sensor is blocked) and then from then on for that map my hand was always offset a bit too the right. In the SteamVR overlay its normal but in game it was offset.

Just the hand through, aiming and holding was normal (as in the positions), the gun/grenade were not in the hand but were floating where the hand should have been.

My lighthouse isn't blocked in any way, I think it's a performance glitch (The game gets stuck for a second when starting the round) which makes the in-game hand be off-set from the controller, but it looks perfectly fine in the SteamVR dashboard. It happened most frequently on the new map Subway, which probably is less optimized.

That's exactly it, although to grab anything off my rig, I had to make the floating hand collide with it first, which made it a real pain to deal with.

Yes, it's definitely not a tracking issue, as my controller was showing fine on the dashboard as well. The bug has occurred several times on every map so far (except for Subway, which I havent played yet), though I'm not sure it has everything to do with performance, since my framerate is more than acceptable for the most part.

Oh, my framerate is always steady, what I mean is the occasional screen-freeze when starting a match or there's a heavy load in performance. Since the game freezes for a second but your controller still moves away, maybe that's why the hand is still stuck in the other place differently to your controller when the stutter occurred? Though it could just be another simple glitch since it only happens with the dominant hand and not the other one...

Those two maps are exactly the most frequent ones where this happens to me.

I have had this happen a couple times. once it happens it is stuck that way until I quit the game are re-launch.

this seems to happen every time i load into the game, and it’s really getting on my nerves.

I just bought the game and tried playing with my PSVR2 for update 2.0 and soon as it loaded my right hand was upside down and the controller glyphs were all backward. I tried finding PSVR 2 controllers in SteamVr settings hoping that would help. But can you believe they still aren't an option when quest 3 controllers are. I guess I will have to try with my Quest 3 which is fine. But kinda sucks. I wanted to play with my PSVR2., On PC btw not PS5.
