Keystroke Bug [CRASH]

SquidYiffer··1 votes·1,450 views

So I was off playing with two of my friends, and at the start of both matches we played, I would lock the camera out of habit (I typically stay in locked camera until I get to my lane). My bind to having a locked camera is Y, which I believe is still the default last I checked. Whenever I would hit said key, the game crashes and I'm forced to reconnect. The first match wasn't too much of an issue, but in the second game, their top lane was able to get roughly 13-15 CS ahead...which was actually enough for him to get quite ahead of me in the early game.

EDIT: I just got finished with a bot game to test if my game would continue to crash, and sure enough it did. But what I learned was this: It wasn't just locking the camera. It was ANY keyboard input. Hitting my Q - crash. Hitting enter to talk to my team - crash. Anything involving the press of a key. And now I'm being penalized for quitting a game I had no control of.

Recreating the issue? Hit any key. It crashes the game now.

Does it only happen on the keyboard? Doesn't crash when using mouse? You could try using on screen keyboard and press some keys; if it crashes its the game error and if it doesn't, its the keyboard. The first thing I would try is update drivers in particular keyboard as it could be an error there. Try that and let me know how it goes :)

I went into a custom game just now...everything was fine (except for the ping, but that's just because my internet is terrible during the day); mouse functions were still working, and the keyboard didn't crash the game this time. I was able to lock my camera and use abilities, summoner spells, actives on items, etc. as normal. I didn't do anything in terms of playing with drivers or reinstalling, so I am afraid that the issue may come back at a later date, but for now, I suppose the issue is "fixed" if you could call it that.
