When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) 23.03.21 20:16 PST
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
How severe is your issue? Major impacts to gameplay
What happens when the bug occurs? My sensitivity drops to 1/4 of what it usually is. I usually play on 1.4 with a DPI of 850. Once I had a free second in game I adjusted my DPI up to 5 and it felt almost normal except every so often, the sensitivity would either dip or jump up.
What should be happening instead? Consistent sensitivity in game
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure, unless this is widespread this might be a tough one to squash. Maybe you can see something in my logs.
Crazy bug in-game, sensitivity dropped very low so I couldn't even really look around. Had to go into settings to adjust it up so I could even function. Bumped the sensitivity up to 4x what it usually was and it was almost playable except for the fact that even at that higher level, the sensitivity would dip and jump at random times. I know it wasn't my mouse because the sensitivity itself didn't change and it tracks smoothly both in in-game menus and out of the game. I have no idea what could be causing this.
