Hi guys! I had a question about Battlefield 5 because this bug is really annoying to me. When I am running around the map, my character suddenly freezes right there but I can only go left or right. To move forward again, I have to hit W key one more time. That feeling of having to do something twice feels weird and frustrating.

I tested it on a different game where that bug didn't happen at all, so I think it's probably not my keyboard doing anything wrong. Is there any setting in the game that causes this glitch, or is it related to graphics? My PC hardware is all set: CPU Intel i7-10700K, GPU Nvidia RTX 3070, motherboard ROG Strix Z490-F Gaming, memory 32GB Corsair Vengeance at 3000MHz, power supply Corsair 750W, storage with a mix of SSDs and HDDs.

My peripherals are a Razer Huntsman keyboard and mouse. I really need to know if there is any fix for this issue since I would really appreciate it if you could help me out!

Is this problem happening in both SP and MP games, or is it only seen in MP ones? I played SP a lot but never had this freeze. I've searched all over the internet and haven't found this bug reported anywhere else except for my own experience where freezing happens too often during movement when things unfreeze. I'm not sure if you're using a keyboard with many keys, maybe three or four at once. Some keyboards don't handle that well so it could be your KB causing the issue. You might need to reinstall the driver for the KB or make sure no other parts are fighting each other. Are you running any RGB lighting programs on other computer parts like monitors?

Yeah, it happened both times but I figured out what caused my game to freeze. It was this program called TaskbarX that was running in the background. Since we were on Windows 11, this program didn't work well, so it was glitching and making my player stop working.

I'm having trouble moving forward. I can only move left or right, and I only go forward after releasing the button and pressing W again. How do you fix this? I am on Windows 11 but I don't have that "TaskbarX" program. Please help me because this bug is really annoying!
