Hey All,This issue has been going since the game release and as a competitive player, this is giving me stress and headache's. As soon i look at a large area/city, moving the mouse feels choppy/jittery. I've tried alot of stuff to 'fix' it. My game always maintain 144+. Other games and windows is smooth.Stuff i tried:Windows legacy/uefi installNvidia settingsBios 'tweaks'Windows 'tweaks'Grounded outlet, because could be electricity related?New mouse's % New keyboard's, new monitor, changed some pc parts.Much more, to lazy to type it all ^ 🙂

If you reduce the FPS cap does change anything in the feel of the game? @dynam1ck /Atic

Interesting, not what i expected. What did you reduce the cap to? @dynam1ck /Atic

@EA_Atic 139 and 72. But why does firing range not have this issue and br matches have? Because if i move my mouse to aim it doesn't jitter but as soon i jump a br match its choppy and jittery, and my fps always stays at the fps cap i set to.

firing range is a really small map with a lot less assets being used compered to BR maps. @dynam1ck Do you have recording of the issue? /Atic

Apex Legends, high fps doesn't feel smooth

@EA_Atic https://youtu.be/VhFyk7ZI-XE Just to confirm, this isn't my gameplay but this guy got the same issue as me. Look closely to the crosshair, its hard to show it on video.

Edit: Inputs also feel heavy, like moving the mouse, pressing keys, I'm guessing its something electricity or internet related, because not everyone has this issue, thats the weird part.

I have been out.

I know its not your gameplay, but a question to ask watching it, your not using a controller are you? @dynam1ck

@EA_AticNo, but when i used a controller the choppyness seems to be gone, but im not a fan of using a controller, im more of a k&m player.

U maybe thinking, because a controller has such low polling rate then lower your polling rate on your mouse should help, right? But that didn't fixed it. I also overclock the controller to 1000hz and the choppyness is still gone.

@EA_Atic Hey me again, is there a way to remove the hd texture? The game felt immediately better without it/when downloading" It might fixed it completely, didn't saw those jittery when moving. Already tried to pause it with netlimiter but when doing that the game kept crashing and disconnects, as soon it hitted 100% the lag came back.
