Game doesn't respond to Keyboard.

Game doesn't register any keyboard commands, mouse still works and I can alt-tab out of the game but no inputs.
I think this is because I tried to use a controller with Champions. I changed my mind, it's not plugged in and the shortcuts are being shown for the keyboard, but nothing happens. Restarting doesn't help.

What did I break?

    Maybe you deleted your key binds in a way, like a complete wipe. Click the options, check controls and key binds category. And or try another keyboard if possible, might a driver or macro error or so for it.

    Nope, keybinds still there. Just to be sure I reset everything to default and still nothing.

    Under Controller what's checked off?

    Joystick > off
    Xbox Gamepads > on

    Turned them on and off, no change.

    Edit: interesting thing I noticed, I can't even type in the chat box.

    At a guess it's decided that the controller is your keyboard. Did you disconnect the controller from the computer?

    Yep, it's wireless and the dongle is out.

    This is STILL an issue. Literally logged into today 13 days later after the original post and I've got the same issue. Keyboard registers input literally anywhere else (Steam, Discord, web browser, etc..) but absolutely nothing within CO itself. I've not once ever used a controller for CO let alone have had it plugged in for several months. It was working fine literally 2 or 3 days ago. So it has to be something with the recent patches.

    I haven't had it happen with my entire keyboard, but there have been a few times where one or two random keys no longer work in-game, but work everywhere else. One day I logged in and it wouldn't register my W key, so I couldn't walk forward. Another day it wasn't registering my Z key (what I have set as my Interact key). I've also had it not register my T key. Each time, I'd have to restart the game for them to work. It's only started doing it this year, I've never had issues like this before.

    What's a kicker to me is that I can literally trace it back to the update that added the newest rampage. Something in that patch killed all of my inputs and they continue to not work still even after another patch was rolled out. So 2 patches have gone by and the game is completely unplayable to me because I can't do anything without the keyboard having input.

    A full restart worked, but I think I had already restarted before. And it would be nice if I didn't have to potentially shut down my computer every time I wanted to play.

    Yep, Still a problem. No keyboard functionality. Restarting, validating on steam, validating from the launcher none of it worked. No controller or joystick plugged in or installed on device manager.
