@EA_AticI think an accurate description would be that the helicopter horizontal (X axis) mouse yaw behaves like tank aiming (your tank will attempt to aim towards the point you "put" your mouse on; example: if I move my mouse 10 X units in 1 second, the tank aim will go to 10X regardless of the duration of my mouse movement) instead of actually air vehicle aiming (the behavior before patch 4.0 was that if I moved my mouse 10 X units in 1 second, the helicopter would not necessarily yaw to 10 X like the tank, it would simply yaw towards 10 X for 1 second, as what was tracked in air vehicles was the presence of the input, not the final coordinate of the mouse movement). I'm pretty sure someone accidentally coded the tank behavior into helicopter mouse yaw behavior.
This is really impacting gameplay and seems to be an extremely easy code fix. Can you check it with the development team, please?
DICE Team@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.
DICE Team@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
