PC Perk settings keep resetting over and over and over again

This is a well known problem since the beginning that affects many players and it's STILL not fixed after so many months of its official release.

Occasionally, for unknown reasons, the perk settings keep resetting so all the perks on the left side are selected. It's really NOT fun to join a game and realize you play that wave with different settings than what you have selected before. Yesterday, it was fine. Today, suddenly my perks are all reset.

I would understand why this happens in EA stage. I do NOT understand why this still happens after release. I mean, are you really serious?

I can't level up, I'm 25 on all perks.

How to tell if I lost connection to the Steam API? I don't think I did. My connection is usually pretty stable.

Stable or not steam has a mind of its own and can drop the connection when there's either maintanance, waay too much traffic at any given time, or maybe a ddos who knows.

When it resets skills to all left its not that bad.
Worst that can happen is when your savefile doesn't connect back to the game while you're in it when you or steam (it has massive surges sometimes) lost connection and it resets your gamma, input and gameplay options to default....

Well consider yourself lucky then that you only have to deal with the annoyance of having stuff set to left.

while i have cats that sometimes knock my router off xD... Good thing defaultinput.ini ini exists, no longer need to worry about resets if they happen by that bug or connection loss
