battlefront 2 camera spinning uncontrollably

I recently got Battlefront 2 (2017) for PC. I played it on PS4 when it first came out and loved it, so I got it for free on the epic games store. I loaded in to a game of arcade while the game was downloading, and the camera starts spinning uncontrollably. I found a lot of threads about this, but none of the solutions worked. Here are some of the things I tried: 

- unplugging and replugging my mouse and keyboard. 

- changing the "stick deadzone" setting which i say being talked about on other forums with the same problem. 

- tabbing in and out 

- Restarting the game 

- restarting my computer 

- restarting Orgin

- turning off discord overlay 

- going through settings and not finding anything

  • Well, I figured it out! Turns out that the game was thinking my flight simulator HOTAS was a controller, causing the spinning. All I had to do was unplug it. I encourage all people that are having this issue to unplug all un-necessary devices from your pc.

    @Spitfire3k One shouldnt have to unplug their HOTAS to play this game. Its been a problem for what appears to be 3 years now.

    @Nokturnal0 Yeah its really dumb. Like this is not a recent bug. I got this on ps4 when the game first was out. It was fixed with closing and opening the application, but its a pain in the * to sit through those long loading screens

    OMG FOUND THE SOLUTION: Turn controller sensitivity down to zero. I had no controller plugged into my pc, and yet it still recognized one for some reason. I don't if people that use controller on pc have this problem, but it solved it for me on KBM. Hope this helps someone.

  • I play pc Keyboard and mouse but the only way to solve it is by alt tab, but it periodically comes back?

  • I'm closing this thread to stop it from being necroed.
