Update 3.1.0 included additional improvements catered to Mouse Input and Responsivity, which we hope you are now seeing signs of in your #Battlefield 2042 Gameplay

Thread with details

🔧Fixed an issue where Mouse Aiming could become sluggish, especially when CPU usage remained high

🔸We noticed that the game was having difficulties prioritizing mouse input under high CPU load, thus impacting aim responsivity

This change now ensures Mouse always has priority

🔧Improved consistency of Mouse Input Polling

🔸This is an overall improvement to how we process Raw Mouse Input from your device, this change should result in the input of the mouse feeling more consistent

🔧Added support for input devices with very high polling rates

🔸Prior to 3.1.0, any input device higher than 500Hz could have minor instances of input lag, with things worsening as polling rates increased

We now support Input Devices beyond 8000Hz

That’s definitely a step in the right direction, no? Did you notice any major improvements using mouse and keyboard in BF2042? Leave a comment below and let us know how it feels now.
