    Problem Solved.

    There was 2 technical issues overlapping.

    Mouse movement and reactivity solution:

    • Setting "Run this program as an administrator" for origin and r5apex.exe 
    • Disabling some services on start up
    • Setting CPU priority class to 6 for r5apex.exe

    Delay when landing solution:

    • Adding command line arguments in origin launcher : +fps_max (#my average fps) -forcenovsync  (My GPU was generating more fps than my CPU could handle. The lags were a result of the CPU throttling in order to reduce it's temperature; later on I changed the thermal paste of my CPU and all problem solved !)

Hmm, gotcha. When you've got a chance can you try running through the basic connection troubleshooting steps over at the EA Help website to see if that makes a difference at all? I'd also recommend checking out the PC-specific steps there as well. 

Let me know if it keeps happening afterward.

Thanks for those recommendations @EA_Kent .

The problem still exist.

For further details I now realize that the delay happens when I get close to landing. When mid air the keys are responsive. But once I touch the ground the delays begin.

I followed these steps :

  • "Run this Program as an administrator" on both origin and r5apex.exe
  • DNS Flush
  • Disabling services for a Clean Boot
  • Opening ports and restart router
  • Disabled IPv6
  • UPnP was already enabled
  • NAT wasn't strict
  • Changed DNS to 1.1.1.1 and alternative to 1.0.0.1
  • The UOTrace gave good result if I'm correct
