Nah, it's definitely not sticky keys. The command for that is pressing shift five times in quick succession, and I am very much not doing that when I enter missions.

Interesting! Personally, I never have my browser open when playing CoH, and I just play on K&M, so I don't think that a browser is necessarily a prerequisite for the bug. But I suppose it could make it worse somehow, or have some bizarre interaction because of the controller. I'm no programmer, but I know full well that computers can just do weird nonsense for no discernible reason, and the spaghetti code of CoH definitely doesn't help. I know the HC devs have been slowly untangling it, but idk how far along they are in that process lol.

So, there's this bug that I get now and then, which other people I know have also gotten, where when you enter a mission, the game thinks you're holding down shift the whole time, and the number keys make you target your allies instead of fire off powers in your primary bar. It's super obnoxious whenever it happens, as I basically need to resort to clicking on every power I wanna use. This has been a persistent occasional problem as long as I can remember. Do the devs even know this thing exists? Has anyone ever reported it? I've never seen mention of it in any patch notes, so I'm really not sure. Yet it's such a ridiculous and irritating problem that I can't imagine why nobody would have reported it by now.
