I’m also getting this with the new update when using Synergy to share my mouse between PCs (Using Windows as a Client). This “Macro” detection seems to be terribly untested, there are a lot of people that have this issue now with different input devices.

I’m having the same issue using a Logitech MX5 but only when throwing grenades (tied to mouse button 3, thumb). Never used a macro in my life, never will. Strangely enough, if I change to button 4 I don’t get the message. Weird stuff going on, but it’s a good thing if they try to stop macro users.

So yeah let’s just \*(Profanity removed by EA\_Lanna. Please don’t curse or swear as per the BF Forum Rules!) \*everyone that maps keys to their mouse. that’s cool  
not only does using the button i have mapped on my mouse to use MMB lock up my movement and mousecontrol, but so does MY ACTUAL MMB.

Why did i even come back to play this game.  
it’s going to take them a month for any hotfix to be pushed out.

It might just needs some adjustments.  
Bit, rather some complaints about that then the macro abusers.

I have the G502 and have bound keys 3 and 4 to thumb buttons using the Logitech tool. No issues yesterday.

I have a Razer Tartarus v2 and a UTechSmart Razer Naga clone.

Both devices come with macro capability, but I had no issues at all yesterday, either on my laptop or desktop. I’ve made significant changes to the default mapping, but I haven’t made any macros.

It might be down to actual hardware issues. Testing today gave the same result (message pop up and get freez) when using button three on the mouse. However, when using any of the other buttons the message doesn’t come up. I think the microswitch on button 3 (in my case) might just be worn from many hours and years of use and gameplay.  
If so, the switch might not “bounce back” as fast as it should and producing a “tripple click” or something, hence producing the macro warning in game. What is strange is that it’s not been there before, which mean they implemented something looking for it with the latest patch… Who knows, maybe it’s a part of fighting cheats/anticheat and then I’m all for it.

If i unbind the key from my mouse is all good, if i bind it give ingame error (the G keybind)  
If i use F or E is ok, but if i bind G it gives error (Razer Naga)

have you tried assigning a different key other than “G” in game & assigning it to your troublesome mouse button to see if that makes a difference?

what I mean is assign grenades to say the “p” key in game, than assign P to your MMB, does it then work?

I got this with a standard microsoft mouse .. no macros.. melee is bound to the third mouse button. It happened when a pressed 4 to switch to a grenade on my keyboard .. which is the stock binding.. and the error popped up. this thread shows they are working on it.

I can not put in words what this goddamn patch means to me. I have a disability that disallows me to use some of my fingers, therefore I use macros to be even able to play this game. Not a single macro is working anymore . I will resort to profanity now: EA.

You start to listen to all the goddamn noobs running around buying your game in a sale for 10 bucks? I paid a 100€ for this and get shafted as a long time player. you.
