Re: Update 4.0 : Helicopter controls broken with mouse (Rifle aim)

@EA_AticNo, I don't. I only use the keyboard + mouse. I too thought initially this problem would have something to do with the game incorrectly thinking I was using a controller or similar devices, but everything I attempted (setting in-game all controller inputs to zero, modifying the profsave_profile file directly to set any controller-related lines to 0 etc.) did not solve the problem.

    Cheers! @caique454

    Do you have any overlays running in the background?

    Also could you upload a clip of the issues?

    /Atic
  • @EA_Atic No, no overlays running.

    I uploaded a clip with texts that show the huge delay between I stopping the mouse movement and the helicopter actually stopping the yaw movement. Since I barely have any practice with video editors, it is not as clear as I wanted it to be, but I think it gets the problem exposed. The normal behaviour would be the helicopter come to a stop shortly after I stop moving my mouse (behaviour pre-4.0); instead of doing that, it keeps yawing with full force for a few more moments (behaviour of tank aim, attempting to point the helicopter to the "coordinates" I moved my mouse to, instead of just reacting to the presence of mouse input, as I explained in my previous reply).

    Since EA doesn't accept mp4 file attachments, the clip was uploaded to YouTube: https://youtu.be/mGHwGwTP5Dg

  • @EA_Atic 

    Sure.

    Attached an image with the keybinds. Both yaw left and yaw right are on Mouse Move X.

    I also have yaw binded to E (right) and Q (left). Yawing with these keys (keyboard yawing, just like the standard controls) behaves completely normal. Only mouse yawing got broken with the patch 4.0.

    Yeah, this is so messed up. they ruined the the Helicopters for us 😢

  • @EA_Atic We still have the same issue, and I saw no mention on the patch notes of the update that is about to be deployed about any fixes regarding our issue. What is going on?

    Yeah @EA_Atic you sure the Devs know about this bug? cause it doesn't seem that hard to fix at all.
    Season 1 is dropping in less than 2 day, at this rate we wont be able to enjoy the new helicopters...
