Keyboard stops working

sometimes my keyboard stops working, partially. I can still open my inventory, ladder, skills, passives and such. but ESC doesn’t do anything, though it does make a noise, also show/hide loot filter doesn’t work, teleport doesn’t work. This has happened a few times, today I lost some good, crafted gear because of it. I was testing a new loot filter, so I dropped the gear from my inventory and it all showed like it was hidden. I tried enabling/disabling loot filter, I even changed back to my old filter and then tried no filter and a filter that was only “show all items”. I tried pressing z and every pretty much every other key. I even tried binding enable/disable key to one of my mouse buttons(via logitech software) and it still didn’t do anything. also, my HUD was gone.

If I open my chest and click the search field, i can type just fine, including the keys that no longer do what they should from the world/play screen. The keyboard also works just fine in every other application if I tab out.

The only way to fix was to ALT+F4 and restart the game, which really freaking sucks because my gear is gone now.

I really like this game and have been supportive, but it has WAY too many bugs and shortcomings. It’s been out for a year now, it isn’t free to play and the “small indie developer” shield has worn thin. Nobody likes having their time wasted, fix your paid product.

Hi there, from the way you describe this, the HUD being gone and the fact not even ESC works, I think you may have hit DEL (Delete) which disables the HUD and Main Menu, as well as hiding Loot Labels regardless of your Loot Filter settings.

If this happens again, please try pressing the DEL key to see if that corrects the issue. If it does not, after reloading, please submit an In Game Bug Report with all of this information. The IGBR Tool attached the .log files from the current and previous gameplay sessions so in instances where a reload has been necessary, our team can still access the data they need!
