Game feels sluggish and not snappy at all, weird input lag?

[krisstijan]

Does anyone else notice this? The mouse movement/aiming is just not snappy and fluid at all, there's definitely some kind of input lag there. I don't use vsync or anything that would add to the input lag. I get around 100 fps. Is there any way to fix it? Is there like some mouse smoothing or what?

Specs:
GPU RX 7800XT
CPU R5 7600X
32GB DDR5 6000

Game installed on Samsung 980 pro 1tb nvme

its server side and its the same for everyone except people living near the servers

hmmm feels snappy here even on 150ms server.

Not talking about server location and server ping but the input lag. Or maybe somehow it's connected to having input lag? But this is the first game where I actually experience this the aiming is so terrible, the overall mouse movement is.

Lower your DPI to about 700 and raise sensitivity to about 50%
turn off Mouse Precision in windows
seems to work for me
try turning vsync off locking fps to 2fps below monitor

[krisstijan]

Tried vsync off/on
Tried freesync on/off
Mouse precision off ofc
100+ fps
Ping about 50-60ms on EU servers
Used 400 dpi and 1600 dpi
Tried using 500hz polling rate, 1000hz, 2000hz and 8000hz with and without motion sync on mouse from endgame gear so clearly it's not my peripherals

I tried lowest settings it's still the same, so clearly it's a game issue. Possibly because there's still no fullscreen option but borderless fullscreen which adds to input lag is my guess. If someone finds any fix, it would be much appreciated.

EDIT: Every other game works and feels absolutely fine

you are using reflex or antilag in driver CP?

I have no issues with any input lag so I wonder whats going on with your setup.

something that never gets talked about anymore is pixel response time, if say I turn off overdrive on my monitor every game feels like soup, with it on any other setting it feels fine (picture quality, balanced, fast or smart) I leave mine on picture quality because it feels fine and has the least ghosting.

it maybe a combination of your monitors response time and poor frame pacing or something, worth a look - even if its to see if you can tighten it up via messing with overdrive (which would probably benefit all other games)

every monitors overdrive setting is not equal so what works good one one might cause massive ghosting or input lag on another... they also typically measure response time based off the fastest overdrive setting instead of what you'd typically run for no ghosting.

some of this doesn't apply to some monitors/TV and I know you said everything else feels fine but its at least something to muck with and see if you can worsen or make it feel better.

my best guess is its some kinda weird frame pacing or antilag behavior (maybe antilag needs to be off instead of on for instance) which would be counter intuitive but would also explain why other games feel fine but this one doesn't, could come down to the driver not behaving like it should when the antilag is applied.
