Explanation

Input lag reports related with FPS
There have been many recent reports regarding input lag, this seems to happen due to a mismatch with the player's monitor's refresh rate and bad defaults.

The game's defaults are 60 target FPS and V-Sync ON.

Target FPS override V-Sync if they're lower than the monitor's refresh rate, thus creating a situation where a player with a 120hz monitor will be playing with 60 fps, creating that "input lag" they describe.

Ideally, the default target FPS would be "Auto", where they match with the monitor's refresh rate.
