On my PC i press Q to get access to give squad orders, requests etc. Sometimes and at completely random intervals i press Q and the pop up menu appears but i can’t select anything? This used to happen in BF 1 too, why does this happen? If this is a bug why hasn’t it still not been fixed!?.. Very irratating if i’m squad leader and people keep requesting order and i’m unable to becase this menu stops working! ---

Erm, BF 5 has been out since last November, it’s hardly beta. Did you read my post in full? This used to happen in BF1 too - is that still in beta? lol ---

What i’m interested in knowing is if this happens to other players and is it a recognised bug. Please stop saying its beta, it’s pointless and of no help whatsoever… ---

It’s a known bug and yes, it was also in BF1. It’s very low priority to fix considering the number of bugs in the game. You can fix it by simply clicking anywhere with the mouse when it occurs. ---

Happens to me as well. When you have the pop up menu Click once, hit Q again, should be able to select what you want then. ---
