Settings/Controls Menu Very Buggy

This has been happening since I think Season 2 of OW2.

I’m trying to change around my communication controls and it’s just… really buggy. Like sometimes when I change something, it shows as what I changed it to but in-game it’s still what it was before. I have to exit and enter a new match for it to change.

I can’t change any of the voicelines available on the communication wheel, it won’t actually do anything. It will show as changed but when I exit the controls menu, it reverts back and will never actually “stick”. This one I can’t fix. I’m trying to change “Acknowledge” in the wheel to “Fall Back”. It will visually change in the menu, and Fall Back will go to the non-wheel controls area, but as soon as I exit it reverts. I can not get it to apply. I can change the keybind and that will stick but the voiceline will also disappear. Like Fall Back is just missing entirely, though I have a keybind applied to it that works in-game.

Sometimes when I change a control and it conflicts with another control, both will get “stuck” as one keybind and I can’t change it until I restart the whole game.

Also, every single time I go to Video, it asks me if I want to apply settings. I’m not changing anything, and the settings are always the exact same, but it always asks me and I have to apply or I will be stuck inside Video forever. This started happening when I changed borderless back to fullscreen.

I have tried: Restarting PC, restarting OW, updating drivers, seeing if I have any controllers plugged in (I don’t).

Just posted about the same issue. All my controls were reset and the communication wheel resets, even with a simple keybind change…
