PSA: Mouse Input is broken in this game (looks similar to bad frame timing)
Mouse input is broken, which ruins an otherwise well optimised game. This looks to be getting confused with poor frame timing in a lot of threads, but controller input is unaffected. For reference, I easily average over 100fps even on the bigger maps, but panning the camera with mouse input makes the game feel like it's running at 15fps despite no drops. In-game reporting confirms it's running perfectly, as CPU/GPU are always rendering within 10fps of eachother. Connect a controller though? Buttery smooth camera panning, and easy to track enemies. No hitches or stutters, just butter. I've tried: - All polling rates, from 125hz up to 4000hz - Toggling raw input on/off - Enabling/disabling Nvidia reflex - Changing USB ports, changing to different mice, wired/wireless - USB power saving etc all turned off - I even tried a driver/Nvidia CP restore, but as controller is super smooth, this was a long shot in the first place Unfortunately the game is unplayable using a mouse on PC due to this. It's next to impossible to track targets, and you quickly get a headache from the micro stuttering when panning. The effect is very similar to Helldivers 2 on PC, when you turn off 'Mouse Smoothing', as that game has serious issues with raw mouse input. Happy to hear suggestions on how to fix this. Mice tried: - Keychron M4 - Logitech G305 - Logitech G604 - Razer Naga Hyperspeed - AttackShark M1 I've also tried on an entirely different PC, same results. OLED as always exhacerbates the issue too, due to the awesome pixel response times. I fear many won't see it due to slower LCDs. Specs are: 5700x3d 3060ti 8GB 32GB DDR4 3600 CL16 AW3423DW (Gsync module version) This is on a fresh Windows install, up to date drivers (tried DDU as well to be sure), but honestly since it's running beautifully with a controller, this looks to be purely a mouse input issue. No other games exhibit this issue other than... Helldivers 2, and Battlefield V. BF1 is butter on mouse, as are BF3 and BF4. Helldivers 2 can be fixed by turning on mouse smoothing in game. I almost bought a GPU upgrade before testing the Xbox controller, saved myself £600. Latest CM post: Hi everyone, Thanks for sharing your experiences and feedback so far. We understand this issue is especially frustrating when it impacts your ability to play smoothly with a mouse. While we’ve asked for similar information before (here), to move forward and make meaningful progress, it is absolutely essential that you provide detailed and precise information responding to the specific request below. Giving vague comments without concrete details won’t help us troubleshoot, escalate, or investigate effectively. If you’re able to, please reply directly to this post by clicking the Reply button on this post. This keeps your info neatly organised and makes it much easier for us (and the studio) to track everything. Please avoid replying to the original post or posting at the bottom of the thread, as this makes it harder for everyone to follow the conversation. Here’s what would be super helpful for us to know: Mouse mode (wired or wireless) Mouse polling rate (e.g. 1000Hz) Whether you’re using mouse software (like Razer Synapse) Where your mouse is plugged in (PC, monitor, hub, etc.) Keyboard model and connection type (wired/wireless) Keyboard polling rate Whether you’re using keyboard software Where your keyboard is plugged in Monitor model Full PC specs (CPU, GPU with driver version, RAM) Full Windows OS version (not just "Windows 11") Whether Gsync or VRR is enabled Full screen mode (fullscreen, borderless, windowed) Which platform do you play on (EA app or Steam) Any overlays active during play (Discord, EA app, Nvidia overlay, etc.) CPU and GPU usage percentages while playing Whether the issue improves with a framerate cap (e.g. 125 FPS) The more details you can share, the better we can help. We know it’s a lot to ask, but this is the only way we can ensure the right information reaches the team and move things forward. Thanks so much for your patience and for helping us out with this. We really appreciate it!98KViews227likes1402CommentsShift the Bahrain Server to Riyadh
I’m from Saudi Arabia and my friends are from Pakistan. We used to play on the Bahrain server, but now that it’s been shut down, they’ve been routed to India and Singapore servers while I’m routed to a Europe server. Whenever we party up, either they have to play in my region or I have to play in theirs, and the ping is constantly 150+. Still, I manage to take out a few players with sheer luck and an RPG. I’m not cheating—that’s just how it is. We’re just trying to have fun. Valorant moved their servers to India, so I don’t understand why DICE/EA won’t shift their Middle East server to Riyadh.88Views3likes2CommentsSerious Frustration: Middle East Servers are Non-Existent !!!
I am writing this to express my deep frustration regarding the current state of Middle East servers. It is completely unacceptable for a AAA title like Battlefield to ignore an entire region for this long. We are constantly being rerouted to European servers with unplayable latency (90ms+), which ruins the competitive integrity of the game. Many of us have supported this franchise for years, yet we feel like second-class citizens. We need a permanent solution, preferably by hosting stable servers in Riyadh or ensuring the existing infrastructure in the Gulf is actually functional. Please address this issue immediately; we just want to play the game we paid for with a fair connectionPanning with mouse is jittery - controllers are smooth.
How to replicate: get close to a post (or anything vertical), 3m or so. Move around the post in circles, tracking it and keeping it in the center of your screen. The post and the whole screen jitters if you're using a mouse. It doesn't jitter with a controller. No FPS drops, frametimes look fine. By reading this, maybe you don't get the severity of the situation: ALL mouse movement is affected by this. The game ALWAYS feels choppy with mice, like it's running at very low/inconsistent FPS - but it's not a rendering problem, FPS and frametimes are unnaffected. Nothing fixes it. Frametimes are as smooth as they can be, always. Changing poling rates won't help, tried them all from 125Hz - 8000Hz (the lower, the worse). Also tried fiddling with raw input, capping FPS with RivaTuner, Fullscreen or Borderless... This needs addressing ASAP. Worth mentioning: this is unrelated to the other bug (already fixed) related to screen freezes after pressing keys (S, 2, 3, etc.). Those freezes too didn't show up in frametimes. This shouldn't be a problem for a AAA FPS in 2026, for THE Battlefield franchise. High FPS (180+), smooth frametimes, VRR enabled, and yet, the experience is AWFUL. This is happening since the open beta, and the BF studios / EA are DEAD SILENT about this. My system: 7800x3D RTX 5070Ti NVMe SSD 32GB 5600MHz Windows 11 25H2. Easy to replicate, tons of reports around. I hope this doesn't come to be "just another report".41Views4likes1CommentMiddle East server issues

Dear EA We need help, we are being routed to Asia or EU servers getting us to +100 ping. Looks like you have taken our servers in Dubai & Bahrain down, clarify please what are the solutions you are taking to help us? The internet is fine what made you take such decision and leave us no choice but stop playing the game.184Views3likes5CommentsFSR Frame generation doesn't work properly
Game with FSR FG enabled feels much worse than disabled, for example it boosts my fps from 100 to 150 but it looks like 60 I tried to: -turn off gsync, vsync, dlss -disable fullscreen optimizations -limit fps -update drivers -change to borderless, windowed, fullscreen -turn off any overlays GPU: Rtx 3060ti CPU: Ryzen 7 5700x thats what it looks like frame by frame: its either repeating same frame twice or creating this mess on picture1.5KViews2likes3CommentsWe are now 6 months into this
I have had my account permanently banned. no apology, not even clearly stated " we have revoked the ban". Do you know how i felt about that? A 10 year old account gone because your dumb **bleep** ai thought i said mean words? You sure know how to treat your playerbase. God **bleep** deserve a **bleep** apology in the slightest huh. 6 months in, playing from France yet every **bleep** game i get matched with a Chinese lagger. You cant kill them, they run with dmrs and all their rounds hit you at once. Shoot you round corners, through hard cover or after you're not even in line of sight (inside buildings). This is not a netcode issue, this is a match ping limit issue. Some matches there are 1/4 of the enemy team, 8 **bleep** players of 150 ping is **bleep** preposterous. Give us the **bleep** ability to have a slider with the ping max we want to play with. I would rather play with **bleep** bots than this **bleep**. Hell terminator bots suck but at least they dont shoot me through walls or round **bleep** corners. this is all too normal.25Views1like0Comments
