Here's an annoying problem that occurs sometimes when I get into a game; as soon as the game starts, it seems like I'm stuck in the "change camera angle" mode. As if I were holding down the key that you would use to change your view, except I'm not holding it down, and I can't get out of that mode. I've tried hitting backspace twice. The only way I can do anything is by holding down the CTRL, which then allows me to do stuff, but only when actively holding it down. Any ideas ? Usually I have to quit, and re-try.

That usually happens when you were alt-tabbed during loading. Just alt-tab out again then jump back in and it'll be fixed.

IIRC pressing alt again helps.

i usually run the game in windowed mode (alt-enter) if i'm doing something else while it's loading so i can hear the sounds when something changes.

As soon as the game starts I always press ALT followed by delete a lot of times just because this bug annoys the hell out of me.

Happens to me if I open the Steam overlay while a game is loading. Just press Alt to fix it.

I use F6 since Shift and Tab are important keys as a competitive CS:GO player. Just something you might want to consider.

Except that the shortcut to open the Steam overlay is Shift+Tab for me. I dunno, I just work here.

I meant pressing shift and tab together is useful for CS:GO players which was the reason I changed it to F6. My bad. ^^;
