Shooting problem

Golden7B · Post by **Golden7B** » 2007-08-15 02:08

Im not sure if its a problem with the game or with my mouse, but after a while of playing, my shooting gets real weird. The first games (1-2), its working perfectly, but after a while, its like it shots only half my clicks. Sometimes its ok, sometimes im not able to shoot 2 times in a row when pressing my mouse button 10 times. Or if I hold the full automatic, its gonna go in burst, or stop, or one bullet: its all messed up.

So I wanted to know if somebody ever had this kind of problems... (I already tired to change my batteries, i got a logitech wireless mouse and keyboard and never had any problems, and it anything else than the game, it works fine, so dont know what it can be....)

Well i dont know if this is the right place for this kind of thing but i think you should just go see a doctor.

On topic: Actually just recently i have had this happen to me!! I think it was yesterday or the day before but i always thought it was me because once in a while my aim will go hay wire looking all in circles and then stopping pointing straight in the air. But i think that has to do with my laser mouse because if i just left up the mouse and put it back down its fixes it self. Not to side track the thread but does this happen to anyone else?

I don't know exactly what it means, but some wireless mouses have sleep timer, maybe yours does as well? I have a Logi G5 (wired) and I've never had the problem.

Sleep timer?

Is that if you don't use it, it turns it self off?

Mine does, but not while playing.

Kind of like a half-shut off. The laser kind of fades off but the mouse itself stays on to recognize when you move the mouse. Maybe their timer is short because their mouse was made with intentions of more using basic things like typing programs. And maybe the maker decided to make the battery life longer, it just turns off soon after not being used, again not expecting it to be used constantly in a game? I know that this sleep timer "exists," as I've seen things like gaming mice being advertised saying that they don't have this silly timer.

Then again. I could be completely wrong and an idiot. But it could be the problem. Or it's BF2 cause EA is stupid. Or maybe their wrists are just getting tired.

G7 comes with two battteries (one charges while you play with the other one), my G7 has a 3 second auto shut off thingy.

Check the Batteries, and check that the Keyboard (if wireless) is conflicting with the mouse.

Change the mouse's or keyboard's frequency channel.

yeah its wireless, both mouse and keyboard , and i already tried to change the batteries.

And where can i change the frequency ? Also, the thing i find weird, is why would this happen only during game play, eg.: if im on the map and click spawn points, it works fine 100%, or even not in the game, it works just fine......

(.... and i dont get the doctor part....)

tx for the help

Is there a switch under the keyboard? Try it, if there is.

If there isn't try moving the Keyboard Receptor/Receiver to the left side of the monitor and the mouse receptor/receiver to the right side so the "invisible" signals don't cross.

[Keyboard Receiver]........[Monitor]..........[Mouse Receiver]
..........|....................................................|........
..........|....................................................|........
..........|....................................................|........
..........|....................................................|........
[Keyboard]......................[You]................[Mouse]

The other way round if you're left handed.

I have no idea, could you post the keyboard/mouse set you have. e.g. Microsoft super pack or something.

Logitech Cordless Desktop MX3000

Alright, let's see, it only happens when you play games? This is probably because you hold down W to walk, this sends a constant signal to the receiver, and when you move the mouse it will send another signal.

Try putting the receiver right next to the keyboard and mouse, like in the picture.
