    Hey @Patejl007 ,

    Do you have any other peripheral attached to your PC besides Mouse & Keyboard? When I used both a PS3 controller and my M&K, whenever changing from one to the other, it could suddenly make my character get his view locked somewhere and the button assignments scrambled. It usually required me to unplug my controller.

    Maybe you have another type of peripheral that is being seen by the game as a controller. Also, if you do have drivers/software for virtual controllers installed, these can cause an issue like this as well.

    Tell me if any of these helped! Good luck!

Thanks for help  Rogue, it "fixed" the issue!

Needless to say, I tried this before, however gave it a second try after your reply and it worked already. The problem probably is, that you need to restart the game, not only unplug (joystick in my case) other device, which I did not do before.

The word "fixed" is in parenthesis as this is from my point of view just a poor patch. Any other game does not have similar issue. Also this was not a problem with SW BF2 after release and now suddenly is. I do not like I have to think about the bug and plug/unplug my devices, because AAA title has such issues - especially when one should be able to control fighters and vehicles and the game is supposed to support multiple contollers 🤐

Anyway, thank you once more!
