The old bug with mouse pointer scrolling off fullscreen and minizing the client when clicking mouse to fire is back.

Happened to me 3 game out of 5. So take a look and please fix it.

Right now, I'm removing my 2nd monitor and playing with just 1. No, I am not running full window display allowing my mouse to scroll off. I am runing full screen

I'll just stop playing this game until it gets fixed, as I have several other games installed where this is not an issue. I haven't had this issue return yet, but if/when it does pop up, hiatus time.

Have you both tried to alt+enter (getting the game from fullscreen to window) and alt+enter again (getting the game full screen)?

If I do the above, the mouse never leaves the main screen, if I don't sometimes if you swing left the cursor gets on the secondary screen (that for me is on the left) and I can lead to alt tab the game.

Thanks John, I'll try it.

Hey blood, this bug has been around since the inception of MWO.

I've submitted multiple detailed tickets about this game breaking issue but had support tell me to stop sending in tickets. Pretty pathetic that they deemed this bug not worthy of fixing. Its 100% re-creatable and happens on the first match of the day, I don't even restart the client any more... I just close it.

This issue stems from another problem, the time length between matches. I get bored waiting, I alt+tab and surf the forums. The game maximizes itself and voila, the mouse cursor is PERMANENTLY STUCK ON IN GAME.

Client restart is the only remedy other than locking it by cycling full screen as John stated above. With this method, the mouse cursor will not leave the game window... ever... and you're stuck with the mouse cursor in-game. This bug seriously needs to get pushed up the priority list. Does PGI want my money?

BTW, I'm using a nvidia GTX 660, maybe on AMD cards with dual monitor the issue is still there..

This has been broken since day 1. It is an issue with running the game in full screen windowed mode rather than in full screen mode. In full screen mode the game will not minimize unless you alt+tab. In the full screen windowed mode any time you are near the edge toward your second monitor the game will minimize when you try and fire. I don't think I can fully explain the anger and language I when this used to happen to me until I figured out the fix.

just alt+enter then alt+enter again, it forces the app to reclaim the mouse cursor and it will no longer go out of bounds.

Same HERE!
Even when alt-tabing
