Rey's Mindtrick causes Sensitivity Glitch (Decrease)

Product: Star Wars Battlefront II
Platform:PC
What is your issue related to? General
Summarize your bug The code for Rey's mindtrick, which is described as inverting player's controls not only inverts controls, but completely messes up mouse and general sensitivity while it is active. The target players' sensitivity will decrease, making it very hard to turn, move, etc. -- it generally seems to decrease by about 2x the amount. This is extremely annoying for characters like Emperor Palpatine and General Grevious (during his claw rush he can barely move left or right during this). Further, you'll essentially get trapped in a corner by a lightsaber spam clicking Rey who has used her mindtrick ability on you, making it hard to even get out of the corner because you can barely turn to block her or the enemy players.

How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Can you tell us the date (MM/DD/YYYY) that you saw the bug? N/A - a long time
What time did you see the bug? (HH:MM AM/PM) N/A
In what game mode did the bug occur? Heroes vs. Villains
What is your time zone?
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? 1. Use Rey's mindtrick on an enemy hero; 2. Notice the significant decrease in general control sensitivity while attempting to move or look around. 3. For extra emphasis, try using General Grevious' claw rush during this and see how bad the sensitivity is.
What happens when the bug occurs? The target players' sensitivity is decreased by about 2x.
What do you expect to see? My mouse sensitivity should not be changed by the game unless I change it. Nowhere is it described that this ability changes the enemy players' mouse sensitivity (and if it's meant to, that is perhaps the dumbest and most unskilled ability I have ever heard of).

Rey's mindtrick is already one of the most unskilled trashy abilities in the game. The fact that it affects a target player's ability to use their keyboard and mouse just shows that it's completely unskilled - it creates an unskilful advantage where the target player is now handicapped by control input settings.

The fact that in addition to this, sensitivity is also decreased, is extremely absurd. My sensitivity controls should not be changed by the game unless I change them in the settings. Perhaps next update Rey will have the ability to crash my game or trigger a Windows update--it's just absurd. Please fix this.
