having an issue

by **Jediluke** » Sat Dec 22, 2018 12:58 am

So I have noticed that while playing the game there are moments where my mouse doesn't seem to respond to the input...it doesn't last long....but it certainly lasts long enough to be noticeable. I'm not entirely sure if it's just the mouse and not also the keyboard...hard to tell.

I have swapped out the mouse and that does not fix the issue.

This hasn't mattered too much in most games....but it has absolutely been a difference maker in close/competitive games. It's incredibly frustrating and if not resolved I will not be able to compete on this ladder. I certainly don't need a handicap that randomly locks up my input multiple times during a game.

Any ideas?

Does the problem persist on a fresh boot without mumble (or anything else) running? How long does it last -- quick stutters or entire seconds?

I have not run any tests....I've only noticed it happening often enough to be an issue that I HAVE to deal with in order to continue to play competitively. It doesn't last more than half a second to 1.5 seconds is my best guess at this point.

I just ran a windows update and will test it tomorrow...too tired right now.

I also want to test to see if it will happen in single player or if it only happens in a hosted 1v1 or anarchy game. This has now been going on for several days. It seemed to happen pretty frequently during my game with Baha tonight so I'm also wondering if it only happens during poor quality net games when the connection issue is on my side.

A lot of variable to work out.

My brain is done at the moment...1:30am G'night.

If I don't resolve this then I will probably right this game off as not 'competition grade' much like Overload and just give it up.....at least competitively for sure. I don't want this handicap.

Im thinking a Windows Update.

Honestly, it's really strange for it to work but bug out.

Here are all of my suggestions:
- Try unplugging other things Like Headset, Keyboard, Just to see if its the mouse or the port.
- Try other USB Ports.
- Replace the Battery.
- Try downloading Microsofts Mouse and Keyboard Center and look for all drivers surrounding your mouse. - https://www.microsoft.com/accessories/e ... ard-center

Idk. Not a tech genius but that's what I would try.

This usually is preceded by a change to the system. When did this start happening? Can you reproduce this reliably?

The most common resolution has been to turn off the Windows Game Bar, which might've gotten turned on by something like an update.

roncli, I can't find that anywhere

I clicked on Start and typed in "Game Bar settings"... might be different on earlier builds, but if you're on an earlier build... do an update
