I’ve had this problem off and on for a while now. While playing, the pointer will occasionally stop interacting with the UI.

Examples:
Can’t click on buttons
Can’t move windows
Hover text doesn’t show up
Can’t click in the options menu
Can rclick / lclick and hold to move camera
Can hold both mouse buttons to move forward

This happens with and without action camera – though if it happens with action camera on, it basically disables action camera, and action camera cannot be enabled while the problem persists.

I’m sometimes able to ‘fix’ it by alt tabbing to the desktop and back but it usually takes several attempts (not good on a raid or in pvp).

It happens on all of my characters, but I can’t find what specifically causes it. Just now it happened when I clicked the inventory gear to deposit materials. Re-spawning after death seems to be a frequent but not consistent time as well. It happens frequently enough (3-6 times in a Stronghold match) that I’m considering switching to a different mouse to see if that resolves the problem

I’ve done a fresh OS reinstall, a fresh game reinstall and all drivers are up-to-date. Currently the only things I’ve installed since the OS reinstall are Photoshop, Bridge and Chrome (No the Adobe apps are not pirated).

Windows 10
G600

Has anyone else had this issue?

More searching and I’ve found a lot of people with the same problem in a variety of games, but no fixes. It seems to be a long standing issue. I borrowed my daughter’s Naga for a raid last night and had no problems so I think I’ll go back to Razer and and consider this thread closed!

Had that bug sometimes, but that was already maybe 2 years ago.
Restarting client had that always fixed at that time.

EVERY MMO is awesome until it is released then its unfinished. A month after release it just sucks.
Best MMOs are the ones that never make it. Therefore Stargate Online wins.
