Hi,I play on PC/steam and have annoying micro stutters when moving the mouse (rotation). Keyboard movement is fine though. I’m using 1 kHz of polling ratio, but I tried all available frequencies: 1000 Hz, 500 Hz and 125 Hz. When I connect PS5 controller, movement is butter smooth. Haven’t got this issue in BFV, BF1 or Apex Legends.Also after turning off the Raw Mouse Input via the game’s settings, mouse movement does not work at all and only mouse buttons work.Any ideas how to get rid off this stuttering?

Update 2.1 solves the mouse issues. No stuttering, responsive and smooth gameplay!

Mouse movements stuttering (steam)

It looks like the mouse polling is somehow related to the render thread and it feels like the mouse position updates are correlated with the fps. Moreover, mouse camera rotation is smooth while in 3rd person (vehicles), problem affects 1st person soldier view. Soldier's camera rotation is fine through the controller and keyboard though.
Please forward this issue to the dev team. Thank you.

@7empePL have you had an issue where you cant move your camera at all? ive ran into a problem where if i try to quickly lay down then get up and do a bunch of stuff at once i can move my camera at all ill be stuck for a few seconds like the game can register everything im doing.

@ANG3LxDUST Yeah, it happens too but it’s quite rare. Mostly while getting out of the vehicle rapidly after getting in. Something is very odd with how they implemented mouse tracking on this game. Hopefully it gets resolved with incoming update, because this micro stuttering is making me crazy… I’m quite sensitive to this.

@7empePL actually yes this may be the same issue. seems to be when i am running and its not all the time. it seems to be that my guy stutters when running but not spinning. This does not happen all the time either but its only when moving forward. i am very sensitive to it and it drives me insane. lol

I have the same issue, moving with the arrow keys is smooth, but when using the mouse to move/aim i get stuttering/delay.

@NightHawkk1997 Nope not really. When I am running straight, without moving a mouse it is perfectly fine. Micro-stuttering happens while soldier is looking around while moving. Unfortunatelly I cannot try with "mouse raw input" disabled because there is currently a bug that disables mouse movement completely in such case.

Mine does not look like that either.
I uploaded a video to youtube https://youtu.be/ADXdMNC7n_w
I start running and try to turn around with the mouse but it is laggy/unresponsive, I stopped for a bit and start walking/jogging again, really trying to take the stairs but the mouse input just stutters or feels laggy/too sensitive and sometimes too unsensitive lol. At the end just using the arrows to control the camera and that is smooth/normal. If I run and use the arrows to control direction it works fine as well.
Not sure if this is similar to what @7empe experiences..or not sure if the video really helps seeing the issue.

@NightHawkk1997 I have this exact problem, its the worst issue with the game I cant believe more people aren't complaining about this!
It affects everything from movement to shooting the game feels so sluggish when it happens!
