Actual Result:
Movement key input randomly drops for a moment during gameplay, causing the character to stop moving even though the key is still held down. Happens most often during chases but also during normal walking
Expected Result:
Movement keys should register continuously and reliably as long as they're held down, with no random drops in input.
Severity:
Major
Reproducibility:
Frequently
Platform:
Steam

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Load into a Dead by Daylight match as Survivor or Killer
  2. Hold down a movement key (e.g. D) during normal gameplay or a chase
  3. At a random point, the key stops registering even though it's still being held down
  4. Release and re-press the key to resume movement

Explanation

Random keyboard input drops during gameplay, mainly on the D key (right movement). The key stops registering mid-press for a moment even while held down, mostly during chases but also in normal play. Not a hardware issue — tested outside the game with no problem, cleaned the key, and fixed keyboard drivers, but the issue persists in-game at the same rate.
