How often does the bug occur? Rarely (0% - 9%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? I bought my items, exited the menu, and was forced in a crouch position. I couldn't un-crouch, jump, or sprint. I could look, use abilities, and fire my gun, though.
What should be happening instead? I should have been able to move freely
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play Arena and hope it happens. I don't know exactly what causes it, but I've had it happen a couple times.

  • Just want to add that I was able to play the first round in Arenas just fine. It started at the beginning of the second round and continued through the rest of the match. I tried pressing buttons multiple times and even tried unplugging and reconnecting the controller, but nothing fixed it. However, once the match was over, I went to the Firing Range and everything was working fine again.

Thank you for the post, it's rare enough but it does happen

Do you recall, before this happened, were you downed, with an opponent performing finisher on you, but it got interrupted? This seems to be a potential cause for this and another downed bug. 

I know it's a long shot, but do you happen to have a stored clip of the match?
