Re: Can't look left or right with mouse, occurs intermittently

Thanks for posting this @ripper951. I was getting ready to post the bug myself.

I've noticed it in Battle of Nordvik, I suppose because that's all I've played since it was released Dec 20.

For me sound is also off and it only happens when I first enter a match.

A workaround that works for me is to ALT+TAB to another Windows app (e.g. Chrome) and then go back to the game.

    Now that you mention it I have mostly been playing Battle of Nordvik too, I will check other modes and see if I have the same issue. Seems to happen way more frequently when I am using the Lis character.
    I will try the Alt-Tab trick next time it happens and post back here if it gives me the same results as you. Also had weird issue with the ELB vehicle where it would not go forward at all for a whole match every time, I entered one.

    Well, I joined a match and on the very first spawn I could not look up/down/left or right. I tried the ALT-TAB like you suggested but it didn't make any difference for me. Had to completely exit the game again to be able to play.
    I was using the Lis character again and I was doing the week 3 Nordvik game.

    You have to make the other window (e.g. Chrome) the active window for a second, then go back to the game.

    Ok I will give that a try next time it happens again.
