What's your system? What RAM? What resolution are you playing in?

mouse seems ok when I move it fast but when I move it slowly ... trying to aim or select menu.. it "cuts out" as if the laser is losing tracking or something.

yeah the menus are weird as hell, but in game should be much better

game is much better...

but wow those menus ... glad I am not the only one having issues, well would be better if there was a fix... but at least I know it isn't just me, thanks

I had your same issue, just play with the resolutions until you find one where its not like that. For me 1920x1080 fixed it. However when the game first booted it was on some weird 4:3 aspect ratio. Let me know if it works!

For me, it does this only in the main menu. The problem is that they didn’t code the menu mouse too well and as a result there are only two axis for the mouse to move in. Try playing the game and seeing if it’s changed or not.

Ummm i found just limiting the frame rate to 45 fps (recommended fps to not break the game) fixed my mouse issues. sucks but if thats what works

Nope, that didn't do anything.

hi all-

just reduce max FPS for the game to 59 in console when game ist started to menu:

- hit ^
- type gfx_MaxFps 59
- hit Enter
- hit ^ to leave console

-> Done

(This workaround also fits in case you are experiencing some kind of "coil whine" of your GPU due to more than 1000 FPS...)

Lol yea finally someone responded with the correct answer. Just set the frame rate to 60 using nvidia control panel.
