Steps to Reproduce

  1. It just started happening today for seemingly no reason.
  2. PC: Asus TUF Gaming F15.
  3. Mice tried: Asus ROG Chakram, Logitech G502X, Logitech G203.

Explanation

Mouse sensitivity extremely high and choppy for the first ~3 seconds of any mouse movement, then returns to normal making the game completely unplayable. Only happens in dbd, happens on every match, with every mouse ive tried and persists after game restarts, full pc restarts and full game reinstalls. There is no way for me to play the game right now.

in attached video i move my mouse at a constant very slow speed and as you can see sensitivity starts extremely high and drops down after a few seconds.

I had the same bug with blight and I simply rushed and it fixed the bug, I think it happened to me when I wanted to break a pallet but the survivor froze it, idk

also, do you have mouse acceleration turned on?

_lvcian it happens on every killer, not just blight, doesnt change no matter what i do in the match and i have tried turning mouse acceleration and mouse smoothing on and off and the bug persists.

niovi_ you should contact DBD support because it only occurs in DBD

Have you tried disabling the GameInput and GameInput Redist services to see if that gets rid of the issue? I have had both mouse and controller sensitivity and acceleration issues with those services running.
