PS4 Menu Infinitely Scrolling Bug

[Edgycoolguy-1603]

Ever since I bought the game I’ve had this god awful menu bug. Just continually scrolls through the options, I feel like I’ve spent more time fighting with this bug than actually playing the game

I’ve had the exact same problem, this really needs to be looked into.

Others have had the same problem too.

[PS4] Auto Scrolling

Mine used to be as easy to fix as yours but now it’s progressed to having to take 10 - 20 seconds of moving my stick to get it to stop. Sometimes when I manage to get it to stop, it’ll stop for a while before making a comeback e.g. post match or post [a couple of matches].

Auto-Scrolling Issue [PS4]

I’ve had this problem since the last update, the one before the anniversary update. It does not matter what controller I use, new, old, even no controller at all. I cannot select anything in any menu. Things I have (unsuccessfully) tried: -restarting console -restarting controller -resetting both -uninstall/reinstall -buying new controller -using the dpad I am using a digital version of the game.

I’ve had this since I bought the game. Some days I just give up and don’t play because I can’t select anything on the menu

When I had this issue, it was because of stick drift.
Granted, Blizzard should probably sort the dead zoning so that it doesn’t happen at all, but to clarify, do you have any way to test if it still occurs with a new remote?

[RedPone-1225]

It only happens in overwatch though. Did you do a reset or have to buy a new controller?

[Pipotchi-21467]

I had to buy a new controller in the end. Taking apart the controller and cleaning it can provide a temporary fix - sometimes the issue is just dust or debris inside the analogue stick.
I think it only happens on Overwatch because other games take small amounts of stick drift into account and ignores it while (presumably) the Overwatch menu screen doesn’t.
