If you're experiencing the usual mouse capture bug when playing with 2 or more monitors, just use this workaround:

- While in match go to options and turn your screen setting FROM FULLSCREEN TO WINDOWED SCREEN
- Save your settings
- Go back immediatly in options and SET BACK FROM WINDOWED TO FULLSCREEN.
- Save again

Mouse cursor will be still visible but safely captured inside the screen, so you will not get the risk to lose focus on the game.

This is a fast workaround that can be easily done while your mech is starting up, so you will not lose any second of your match.

Strange, I don't have this problem with my monitors, though mine are attached to separate video cards instead of one.

However, like stated here:

It's a problem afflicting more than 70% of dual monitor users since last year, and still not fixed, yet.
So for those experiencing the problem, this workaround should save some annoying match.
