Hello Everyone,

I have been trying to play this game for a while now but the performance once inside the game is horrible.

The first thing I did was turn off the Vsync (which was causing the mouse lag) and turned down all settings so that I can work my way up by adding back higher settings to isolate the problem.

On the first shot and on the menu screen, the mouse lag was completely gone. I thought to myself, yes this is going to fix it.

then I started a new game (with the tutorial) and boom.....

the mouse lag was back and with a vengeance and the FPS was just unplayable.

FYI - I play a ton of other games and do not have this issue.

Here are my basic specs:

Try turn off ultrasampling

With just a 7570 (which is a relabeled 6570), you can expect at best modest performance at low to medium settings and reduced resolution.

This game drives the GPU very hard, and the number of pixels you have to put on the screen makes a big difference in frame rate and responsiveness to the controls.

Try reducing the resolution to 1280x720; if this is inconvenient for your monitor, try running it in windowed mode (set Fullscreen to Disabled).

OK, this is interesting. I dabbled with the settings a bit. I tried to use the auto detect.

Ubersampling was disabled using auto detect.

but a lot of the other settings were fairly high. I also disabled Vsync because that is known to cause mouse lag.

I kept myh screen resolution at its highest as well.

Fired her up....

The menu screen mouse movement was smooth as silk.

then in the game, I noticed that the mouse movement when inside the inventory was just as smooth. But when the loot menu popped up or when you hit ESC, that menu was very sluggish. Also, when the in-game mouse comes up to select dialogue its sluggish.

Movement in the game was not terrible but also not ultra responsive.

Now here is the funny thing. when doing the tutorial, it seems very sluggish even when there is no mouse or menu. but when playing the actual game, the movement was not bad. Mouse movement was perfect in the inventory menu, but horrible elsewhere.

Strange, no ?

i had this same issue of sluggish mouse movement ... i dont know about amd but in nvidia control panel there is an option of adaptive vsync which corrected my problem ... oh n turn off vsync from the game configurator ... also disable cinematic depth of field ... ull notice a huge difference in your fps ... other than that just keep playing with settings ... lowering your resolution and all that stuff

That's because tutorial area is not well optimized. Im playing tw2 with 60fps usually but in some location performance drops to 40 something.
