Making the game look choppy even though I’m getting 215 FPS. It makes the game look like it’s running at 40 FPS. I think it might have something to do with mouse DPI or something it’s really strange these problems even exist in some other Battlefield games like Battlefield 1 and Battlefield V, but not in games like Battlefield 2042 or Star Wars Battlefront II. I really hope this gets fixed because it’s not enjoyable right now. Hopefully, it’s just the shooting range causing it, since I still haven’t been able to play the full game yet everyone probably knows about the issue where the game says it’s not owned or installed. And before you say you don’t have these issues, do you have a G-Sync monitor with VRR? I have V-Sync enabled in the NVIDIA Control Panel as well. I’ve tried all kinds of settings on, off, and different combinations—but I’m not getting anywhere. If it doesn’t happen in other games on the same engine, I really don’t know what the problem is.

Are you playing on Mouse?
If so, that's the cause.
Mouse input is broken, which ruins an otherwise well optimised game.
For reference, I easily average over 100fps even on the bigger maps, but panning the camera with mouse input makes the game feel like it's running at 15fps despite no drops.
In-game reporting confirms it's running perfectly, as CPU/GPU are always rendering within 10fps of eachother.
Connect a controller though? Buttery smooth camera panning, and easy to track enemies. No hitches or stutters, just butter.
I've tried:
- All polling rates, from 125hz up to 4000hz
- Toggling raw input on/off
- Enabling/disabling Nvidia reflex
- Changing USB ports, changing to different mice, wired/wireless
- USB power saving etc all turned off
- I even tried a driver/Nvidia CP restore, but as controller is super smooth, this was a long shot in the first place
Unfortunately the game is unplayable using a mouse on PC due to this. It's next to impossible to track targets, and you quickly get a headache from the micro stuttering when panning. The effect is very similar to Helldivers 2 on PC, when you turn off 'Mouse Smoothing', as that game has serious issues with raw mouse input.
Happy to hear suggestions on how to fix this.
Mice tried:
- Keychron M4
- Logitech G305
- Logitech G604
- Razer Naga Hyperspeed
- AttackShark M1
I've also tried on an entirely different PC, same results. OLED as always exhacerbates the issue too, due to the awesome pixel response times. I fear many won't see it due to slower LCDs.
Specs are:
5700x3d
3060ti 8GB
32GB DDR4 3600 CL16
AW3423DW (Gsync module version)
This is on a fresh Windows install, up to date drivers (tried DDU as well to be sure), but honestly since it's running beautifully with a controller, this looks to be purely a mouse input issue.
No other games exhibit this issue other than... Helldivers 2, and Battlefield V. BF1 is butter on mouse, as are BF3 and BF4. Helldivers 2 can be fixed by turning on mouse smoothing in game.
I almost bought a GPU upgrade before testing the Xbox controller, saved myself £600.
tagging EA_Leeuw on this issue, again. I did this during the betas as well.
I have also experienced this issue since the open beta, during other players reported the issue here and on the official BF subreddit. The issue being: juddery mouse-looking for everything on screen apart from my character's arms and weapon, but there is no issue at all when using a controller.
I do not have a fix, but this workaround gets rid of the issue for me: disable gsync, enabled frame generation to maintain 240FPS on my 240Hz monitor. Obviously this is not ideal because some latency is introduced with FG, but I find it the lesser evil when compared to this awful juddering.
Here is my recent (since BF6 live launch) reddit post about this issue, which also lists 5 other related reddit posts from the open beta:
Does anyone know how/where can we report this directly to EA/BF Studios so we can get this addressed? I tried EA's "Contact Us" via their BF6 section of the website, but it felt very generic and had limited options. We need to get this information directly to the developers if possible.
