Re: Losing all keyboard and mouse input

This might not help everyone here, but I appear to have fixed the problem on my system simply by disabling VSync in the game. You can still use this by enabling it in the graphics driver instead (I actually use G-SYNC with VSync enabled to stop tearing above monitor refresh rate). But for some reason when I had VSync enabled in the game it caused this loss of control and repetition of the last button press.

    @SlipperyLiz4rd Thanks for the feedback! I have vsync on in the game as well and have not tried disabling it. I will try it.
    How long has this issue been solved for you with this solution?

    The issue has definitely reduced in frequency for me after disabling VSync in the game, but it hasn't disappeared. I do still get it from time to time. Really frustrating.

    @SlipperyLiz4rd I tried it last night and am not sure how it worked because I was having major stuttering and connection issues with the servers last night which I have not had before.
    I plan to try it again tonight and I'll provide another update.

    @SlipperyLiz4rd Thanks for the tip bud. I played tonight and last night and didn't have any more loss of control like I did before. Like you, usually I get it at least once per match, usually multiple times each match.

    The only thing I changed was to turn off vsync in the game and I made sure that my nVidia driver is set to "Let the 3D application decide". That's the setting in the nVidia Control Panel under the "Adjust image settings with preview" item on the left (the option at the very top of the list). I know this prevents any special settings under "Manage 3D settings" below it, but I'd rather play with no freezing than with customized settings.
    Thanks again! It's much better now.
