Are you using any software with an overlay? No
Which part of the game is the issue happening in? Multiplayer
Which part of the mode? Breakthrough
Please select your region North America
On which server did this happen? Every game
When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) All the time
Summarize your bug The game will not execute my movement orders seconds later instead of instantly.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Not sure, many players may not experience this bug. The input delay occurs when there is intense fighting around the player, usually after 1minute into the game.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sometimes when I push a key for one action (like space for jump) the move will only be executed several seconds later. Or, when I no longer hold a key (like w for move forward) the move remains.
What should be happening instead? The move should be instantley executed after I press down the corresponding key.

When the game was just released there wasn't this problem for me.

After update 2.2 I started to notice severe input delay. I manually limited the CUP usage by editing user.cfg anf largely fixed this issue (sacrificed some performance).

After update 3.1 the mouse input delay was largely fixed (function correctly even without user.cfg) but the keyboard input delay remains and cannot be fixed by any means.

  • To be mentioned: I think this is caused by high CPU load because I do find 100% CPU usage correlating to intense fighting and input delay. This is true after both patch 2.2 and patch 3.1
