user.cfg doesn't work in multiplayer

Product: Battlefield 1
Platform:PC
Summarize your bug Game overrides user.cfg commands on player respawn in multiplayer. For example: I disable motion blur via user.cfg file and every respawn blur comes back (become enable), so I need to turn off it manually via console each time.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1) Disable motion blur in user.cfg (WorldRender.MotionBlurEnable 0). Other commands also affected by bug, but blur is a good example. 2) Launch the game, check blur in the menu (enter WorldRender.MotionBlurEnable in console). Blur will be disabled 3) Join any multiplayer game, and spawn 4) Check blur, blur will be enabled 5) Disable blur via console (enter WorldRender.MotionBlurEnable 0) 6) Die and respawn 7) Check blur again, blur will be enabled again
What happens when the bug occurs? Respawn shouldn't re-enable blur every each time. It works in BF4 fine, but in BF1 it is broken.
Please select your region Europe
In what game mode did the bug occur? Conquest
AMD or Nvidia Model Number GTX 660
Enter RAM memory size in GB 8 GB

 Bug is there since alpha

  • Dear EA DICE,

    Battlefield 1 doesn't recognize my USER.CFG file. I got GTX 980 Ti + 4770K. And on the Trial version (10 hours long) my game crashed like 8 times. Enabling/disabling Dx12 didn't help. So I wanted to make a custom USER.CFG file, starting out by showing the FPS counter with command, 'perfoverlay.drawfps 1'. The game loads in into the Homepage, but soon as I joined a server, the FPS counter disappears. I noticed this by my ingame FPS counter. It disappears every time when I load a game and doesn't come back unless I completely Quit the game and reload it back from Origin. Then again after loading/joining server online it disappears. Logic tells me that the whole USER.CFG file gets rejected. I just put in one command line, for showing FPS to test. I deleted the USER.CFG file, with and without, every hour the game Crashed. I don't have this problem with Hardline or BF4. Where I never use user.cfg. But I guess something in the ingame engine need to be disabled or killed in my chase and probably many others.

    Hope to hear from you guys soon, as the release date is very close! 18okt :D
