8.3.7 broken raw mouse input (sticky camera pan while moving)

Same issue here, incredibly annoying and makes PVP unplayable

same issue here and I have corsair scimitar pro mouse… Blizzard need to fix this… there is nothing we can do…

Blizzard have no QA. This is literally happening to millions of people… How did this go live?

Both mouse issues seem to be largely fixed on the PTR. Need more people to go and check it out if you have a spare 10 mins.

Ever since todays update, whenever i press W A S D to move it acts as if i am right clicking and my mouse then changes camera angle wherever i move it to, is there anyway i can fix this? i tried a search but i cant find anything on the problem? am i being stupid or?

No but you seem to have ignored the bazillion other posts about the same thing, some of which even contain temporary work-arounds.

Let people make the same posts all over again, maybe someday they will prioritise this issue and see how sluggish and annoying the game is without the correct CVar. My mouse keeps darting to the middle. It’s been 2 days and still nothing lol, what a joke.

Except it doesn’t work like that.

The forums are not policed by the developers, and the developers are the only ones who can address the issue. The forum staff have repeatedly said that they have zero connection or communication with the developers.

Well that’s just sad lol, one can only hope for this issue to be fixed, was considering taking a few days off, if not weeks until this is fixed. I’m still confused as to why these issues haven’t been fixed earlier, like people who don’t use raw input, don’t they suffer from these current issues everyday? Mouse snapping to middle etc? Im guessing that they must have reported the bugs at some point?

Lets see, the game client is ~70GB in size.

I’m guessing that means its made up of many billions of lines of code, spread out over many thousands of files that get compiled down into one file at compile time.

The update went out last night.

I really don’t think they are going to identify the cause, devise a fix, compile it down, test it, and then push it out in a few short hours. It’s going to take a couple of days at least.

Nonsense.

1 - Most of the 70GB is data not code. ie. graphics/movies/sounds.

2 - It doesn’t have billions of lines of code.

They will be using a modern system of pull requests and merges most likely, so rolling back on this mouse nonsense should take a few hours at most.

If this was a gold dupe bug or if players could death touch every raid boss do you think they’d leave it for so long?

From reading other posts and from my experience of watching SL alpha streams it seems clear that they’ve merged some broken code from Shadowlands as these mouse issues were present there too.

Mouse gets stuck/stutters after left-clicking a friendly npc/player within range of your character. Similar thread on NA forums. It appeared after this patch. It’s not the raw input one that people also seems to have but a different one. How this happens is beyond me. Please fix asap.

EDIT: Also happens on targetdummies which probably means that it happens to everything you target. 4 of my friends on discord also has this happen, we’re using Logitec, Razer and Zowie mice.

EDIT: Can confirm that it happen on anything that you can target by left-clicking.

Here is a clip i found being linked on the NA forums that shows an extreme version of the bug. It’s not always this extreme.

Hello, my mouse Razer Naga is suddenly acting rly strangely after WOW update today…when i target someone, the mouse basicly freezes for like 2seconds + it weirdly randomly accelerates/decelerates aswell. Just please reverse the update for me or something, it is really ridiculous as the game is basicly unplayable at the moment…

Same here and I have corsair scimitar pro rbg mouse…

Mouse wont behave like it needs to… it cuts out or someting like that. When I left click and fast try to left click some other spot in the screen it kinda stay still and wont take the command… and its not addon or my mouse or anything else since it started today when new patch came… so plz fix this fast… Its even hard to click enemys when mouse act like wierdo…

Can confirm, i’ve got the same issue. It is like sticky mouse coursor. Happens mostly when clicking on clickable objects and trying to move the cursor away, it will instead just stay there and stutter.

Got the same issue. When left clicking, mouse gets stuck for a few seconds… works just fine outside wow. Very annoying…
