DICE PLEASE : stuttering / frame skipping when pressing keys

Dice can you please aknoledge that for many of us on PC,  ALL BATTLEFIELD TITLES  are currently broken because of the anticheat ?

Their is a mouse stuttering issue, and frame skipping on key press since winter update 12/09/2025.

It has been several weeks now, can you please at least aknoledge you are aware of this issue ?

  • Ya ive also had this issue. Since this update, been so frustrating to play that I stopped playing and will continue to play when they fix it. For me its happening on BF6. spikes the CPU usage which causes the stuttering.

  • Having the same issue. Seems like Dice/EA doesnt care since they already stole our money

    Why do you think it's related to the anticheat? Of all the possible causes, you pick that one?

    Because it’s measurable. Javelin’s CPU usage spikes only when pressing the specific keys that stutter, not on mouse movement or idle. The affected keys change per launch, which points to input validation, not hardware or drivers.

    This is not speculation or a random guess.

    Multiple users have verified that Javelin Anti-Cheat shows a CPU usage spike only when pressing the specific keyboard keys that cause stuttering at that moment. Mouse movement alone does not trigger it, and idle gameplay does not trigger it.

    Key observations:

    The affected keys change between game launches.

    The issue happens immediately on launch, not after prolonged play.

    Different keyboards, mice, USB controllers, polling rates, and clean OS setups have been tested.

    Closing overlays, RGB software, RTSS, Afterburner, Discord, Steam Friends, etc. does not resolve it.

    Temporary workarounds (holding ALT, pressing keys on launch) alter the behavior, which strongly suggests an input state / validation issue, not a rendering or network problem.

    This rules out:

    Faulty peripherals

    Drivers

    USB instability

    GPU or CPU bottlenecks

    What remains consistent across all reports is that the stutter is tied to discrete keyboard input events processed at a low level. That strongly points to an issue in the input handling path, most likely involving the anti-cheat layer.

    We are not asking for an immediate fix. We are asking for acknowledgement that this issue is known and being investigated, because at the moment all Battlefield titles are effectively unplayable on mouse and keyboard for many players.
