NoWhich part of the game is the issue happening in? MultiplayerWhich part of the mode? BreakthroughPlease select your region EuropeOn which server did this happen? When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) Summarize your bug Losing all input for a few seconds (Player just runs or spins depending on the last button pressed) This happens both with K&M and also when using a controller.How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the same on the same build...What happens when the bug occurs? I cant do anything for a few seconds.What should be happening instead? I should have full control of my character 100% of the time.I dont know what else to do ive deleted the battlefield 2042 documents folder, installed the game to my ssd, disabled future rendering, tryed the game on low settings, unplugged all other usbs and just left essentials plugged in (K&M & controller)Its infuriating that this still isnt fixed yet. I just want to be able to play the game without dying to stupid bugs.

Same issue. Reading through your log, I see that you are using voicemeeter, which I am also using. So far I have read that people have issues with DAC's too. Maybe there is an audio coding issue? Idk. I'm just trying to add info to hopefully get this fixed.EDIT: I disabled the audio being routed through VoiceMeeter and no freezes. Annoying.

@UKzRANDALL This same garbage happens to me constantly in a match, sometimes 5 to 6 times in a row. It lasts so long for me though, making some matches unplayable. I have a video if anyone wants to see what it’s like

Another update i even done a clean install of windows 10 and the problem still exists note to everyone dont waste your time lol

Also having this problem, it's been around since the beta and it's driving me nuts, because it's not just a few seconds, it'll go for 10 to 20 seconds minimum every single time. Nothing affects it, such as dying, it'll just lock up the controls with whatever was going on last and then randomly give it back. It's incredibly frustrating, because it's guaranteed to happen a few times every gameplay session.

There is a long-running thread with many of us having this issue - https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Losing-all-keyboard-and-mouse-input/td-p/10951720.

Losing input for a few seconds (Randomly). Keyboard, Mouse & Controller.

I have this same problem. I play on PC with a Razer mouse and Logitech G13 gamepad. Both these devices use software to control them and to assign profiles and it has always worked in other games and in past BF games no problem. My PC is no slouch - I have an RTX 3080 Ti and an Intel i9-9900K cpu with 32 GB of RAM. For me it happens every few minutes and always in threes: lose control for 2 seconds, then fine for a second, then the same thing over again twice right away. After that, it's fine again for a few minutes and does it in threes again.
In the past I remember having issues like this because I had Google Backup running in the background and when I paused it this issue went away. However that doesn't work for this game - I completely turned off my Google Drive program from running anymore and it didn't make any difference. I tried turning off all unnecessary background apps and still have the issue (even turned off Shadowplay, Discord, etc.). The only two things I have running are the Logitech Gaming software and the Razer Synapse software so that my mouse and G13 gamepad will work.
Tonight, I will try turning off RAW mouse input like is suggested in the other thread referenced above.
It's definitely frustrating because I die almost every time this happens because I lose all control and usually run out into the open or somewhere else I should not be. :-)
I hope this gets figured out soon, and thanks for submitting this initially.
