Sensitivity changes randomly, help

Can you do a test with rivatuner during play if there are fps drops, low gpu usage etc? Another player has mouse issue of this kind but he posted a video and seems more a laggy stuff.

Fps seem somewhat stable, and I´m not sure that´s the issue, since I can have the same fps and experience different sensitivities. GPU and CPU usage seem to hover between 20-40%.

If you have these values with uncapped fps, you have the issue. With uncapped fps gpu should run way more 90%+.

It seems like connectivity issues to the Blizzard servers can cause these kinda issues:

I have different specs but issue is pretty much same, only for me the sensitivity changes on fly all of sudden for few seconds, becomes slow. Doesn’t matter if I play alone or with a friend. Only thing I notice that we have exactly same mouse. This started yesterday for first time, before that no problems.

Hmm ok. Those values were with fps capped at 300. If I set it to 400, I get slightly more usage, but not 90%. I can get the GPU to run at like 80% or higher if I increase video settings, but then I get lower fps and the mouse feel more sluggish.

Hi Saiyan,

Hmm okay. I do not experience any difference being in qp/comp compared to skirmish/4v4/deathmatch. Not a big one anyways, if any, the issue is still there.
If this is the issue anyways, how would I resolve it?

@Vulpes Is everything ok man ?

Hi Cormac,

For me, being in a group makes the sensitivity more sluggish. Do you think it could be the mouse? If so, why does voice chat (and other things) affect this?

Did you ever figure this out - this is plaguing me as well. I used to never have an issue, and am lately running into this constantly. I really was wondering if my aim was getting worse, then suddenly I would be aiming well - then I realized its the same problem you describe. The only thing that seems to “fix” it, is to go into the settings and set the sensitivity. but this isn’t permanent. I’ve tried a lot of the same steps, no go. I am convinced this is an OW problem as its the only game that does this. I get this incidentally on both a Logitech G403 and a Razer DeathAdder Pro v2… it’s maddening.

I have the same issue found any fix yet besides just constantly resetting sens ingame?

i have a simular problem, my sensitivity changes in the menu and it always changes to full numbers. i play on 7.81 sens and it keeps jumping to 8 whenever i close the menu

:arrow_lower_right:

what exactly do you mean by “leave the control options each time” i dont quite get that. english isnt my first language so i have trouble understanding the meaning behind it

you set it up to your desired value, leave settings and it should save.

If you go back in, it will round it up again.

works sometimes - not permanent for me. (i adjusted the mouse dpi in my mouse app)

ok thanks will do, problem is i play on 7.81 and 800 dpi so i cant really adjust it properly

7,81 [Ingame] x 800 [DPI] = 6248 [eDPI]


—> 6248 [eDPI] : 8 [Ingame] = 781 [DPI]

or

—> 6248 [eDPI] : 7 [Ingame] = 893 [DPI]


try it
