Guild Wars 2

Hello Tech Support community! I come with a small (kind of) problem I’ve been experiencing in-game. It’s only begun happening recently, and I haven’t been able to figure out what may be causing it. I’ll be attaching a video of what the problem is, in case my explanation of it isn’t clear.

Problem:
Recently, in-game, when ever I try to pan the camera with my right mouse button, it (the game) acts as though I’m letting go as I pan the camera. Therefor, the camera will stop moving for a split-second or two, and resume panning.

There was only one point in the video where I had actually let go of the mouse, which is annotated. Sorry for the poor graphics quality as well, I had turned those down to rule out any graphics problems that may cause it.

Not sure on the rule of bumping… But my problem is getting worse and I don’t know what else to do, I’ve submitted a ticket but no luck with that so far :(

Your English is fine! You shouldn’t have to say sorry. I’m the same, I use a “normal” mouse as well, and I like to WvWvW a lot, so in big fights it’s just dreadful. :/

Mouse losing focus -right click to turn not working [Merged]

Hi. Most of the time that this issue is present (it is inconsistent), the mouse actually loses focus and never reacquires it, which prevents character and camera orientation with the right mouse button and leaves the game in a completely unplayable state. Some days it is very bad and prevents you from even being able to play, other times it is only a couple times a minutes, but leads to frustration and not playing the game the rest of that day.

The recently added option to ‘Disable Right-click Targeting’ has helped with the linked issue of randomly selecting a nearby friendly target while moving your camera with the right mouse button, but it has done nothing to solve the issue of your current target being dropped for no reason.

This happens because the mouse tracking has an issue to where the game reads you as releasing the mouse button (despite your having never released it) and then re-‘clicks’ the button down quickly. Due to this issue, if your cursor was over/near another friendly, then they become your new target as if you had intentionally clicked on them to select them.

However, disabling right-click targeting and interaction has simply made the issue of a new target stop happening. The issue of losing your target due to the glitch in mouse focus persists, only now we just have target loss due to the quick un-click and re-click of the right mouse button over an empty area of the screen which deselects the current target, instead of both target loss and random friendly selection.

Has there been any clues as to what may be causing it? I only just got the bug recently, along with Mea

Exactly, I just experienced it for the first time last night and I don’t know why. I didn’t do anything unusual, I was just playing as always… It makes no sense! It happens anywhere, even if there are no “friendly targets”. So I just right click on the ground and the cam doesn’t move. Meh, they should just add an option to rotate the cam without holding right mouse button… Like in single player TPS games. Sure, it wouldn’t fix the bug but it would make gameplay more comfortable anyway… : (

That’s exactly what I did (or at least tried to do)! I went looking through all the control settings but couldn’t find an option for it. :/ Yet there is options to walk or to swap to town clothes :p
