Summarize your bug My mouse and keyboard inputs cut out randomly in the middle of gunfights or just running around, at least once every 3 to 5min for 1-2 seconds at a time.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? no clue.
What happens when the bug occurs? my mouse and keyboard inputs cut out randomly in the middle of gunfights or just running around, at least once every 3 to 5min for 1-2 seconds at a time.
What should be happening instead? I should be able to play the game without game breaking bugs.

I thought it could be the controller input triggering or something while not in a vehicle, but I relaunched without the controller plugged in and still had the issue. I have scoured many forums and tried so many things from messing with overlays, resetting save data, verifying, reinstalling, closing all background apps, so I'm at a complete loss. This has been an issue for me since before 4.0.

    Hey @SunnySideUpLife,

    I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing this issue since quite some time now already.

    Have you tried to disconnect every USB-device/peripheral from your PC, with only your keyboard/mouse connected, to see if it keeps happening that way?

    Hey @Spartan0nyx,

    What kinds of pheripherials are you using? Do they require specific software, like Logitech Ghub for example?
  • I am using Xtrfy MZ1 which does not have any software at all. Im starting to think its Easy Anti Cheat doing this though. Ever since this issue started, I also had the issue where all discord audio cuts out when launching the game. This same problem also happened with Halo MCC when I tried starting it the other day and that game also uses Easy Anti Cheat. However the mouse disconnections didn't happen in Halo.

    @Spartan0nyx, hmm, alright. I've seen more people reporting issues that are potentially related to EAC, so it could be that this is as well.

    Have you already tried to repair/verify the game files to see if that fixes the issue?
  • Same problem for me before I had problems with the keyboard, keys pressed alone, often the keys for changing weapons which was very painful but stopped after a few minutes.

    With the new season it's no longer the keyboard but the mouse which sometimes no longer responds, it's very frustrating, it's impossible to play correctly. It's only in BF2042 😬

    Since the last update my mouse has been showing annoying behavior. Every 2 minutes of play the sensitivity drops making me lose aim. I've tried everything and I haven't been successful.
