extremely slow mouse makes UI impossible to use

Jul 08, 2009 jeskeca link
I just brought up the client on a Lenovo Thinpad W500 w/ATI FireGL Mobility V5700. It asked me if I wanted to use native resolution (1680x1050), and I answered yes. The visuals look fine, but the pointer is impossible to control because its movement is 1-3 seconds behind my mouse movement and very jittery. I couldn't tolorate finishing the tutorial.

I don't have this problem with any other game on this laptop at the same resolutions, including mmos like wow and eve. Is anyone else having this trouble and is there any way to fix it?

i run an account with an external monitor off of a laptop and the resolution differs to what the laptop outputs and the mouse response time also sucks. On my main comp it runs fine.

So ye I have also noticed this, i assumed it was a hardware fault not vo but if you say it works ok with other games then i dunno.

jeskeca, You can try toggling VSync in Options->Video or switch to OpenGL mode via Options->Video->Change Drivers...

Hi. I'm a brand new player and I'm also having this slow mouse issue. I play lots of online and PC games and have had no problem up to now. I tried what was suggested and still no go. Has anyone figured this out yet? Looks like a great game and I would hate to quit because of this.
