Keyboard button presses lead to stuttering even AFTER hotfix

Since yesterday (right before and now after the hotfix on Steam) I've been experiencing stuttering that seems to be unrelated to the stuttering the hotfix was for. I experimented and it seems that keyboard button presses disrupt mouse input that leads to what feels like stuttering. I noticed this at first when switching weapons: when looking around and switching with keyboard buttons 2, 3 etc. there is a noticable stutter which is absent when switching weapons with the mouse wheel. So I went into the firing range and as it turns out every keyboard button (mapped or not) seems to cause this stuttering. The FPS and weapon sway animation are unaffected and it cannot be picked up by the net graph so I suspect that it disrupts the mouse input for a couple ms leading to a noticable stutter when looking around.

Here is a video where I look around without pressing any buttons and then I press any keyboard button repeatedly and it stutters: https://youtu.be/Ua6USYtIEPo

DICE, please fix.

    Unfortunately for me this 'fix' only makes it slightly better, the core issue still remains even after closing RTSS and all other overlays, like Discord, Steam, and OBS. Really hope this gets fixed, I wanna play my game! lol

  • You've been having the exact same problem I've been having. If you have MSI Afterburner or Rivertuner Statistics Server running like I do, close it before playing Battlefield 6. It may be the reason why you're having this problem, and closing RTSS fixed it for me.

    You guys aren't alone with having to face this issue. There's a lot more people out there that are having the exact same problem. Sorry if linking to my bug report looks a bit selfish and mean, but all I want to do is help spread awareness that it's a problem that tons of people are having, and that there's a potential fix out there.
