It came to our attention that Windows 8.1 has mouse problems in games. DAoC seems to be affected.
It's done when it's done. Thanks for your patience.
Every bug gets fixed. Sooner or later.

Might be device-dependant. Running Windows 8.1 Preview since 1st day it was available without problem.

On 1v1: red = dead (most likely me, sometimes you).

Which mouse you have? Logitech is clearly affected for me.

Logitech Anywhere MX mouse. Might be because I'm still running the preview though (didn't have time to repave to RTM yet). I'll keep you posted once I installed RTM.

No start menu. Just a start button that takes you to the start page or whatever they call it.

The group that runs up against them can't kill them fast enough because smite clerics have sooooooo many tools at their disposal combined with decent ranged damage with 8 of them dudes doing it!

Downgrade your driver, the new ATI drivers are buggy as hell

While we're at Win8 being evil: Virtualbox with VT-x enabled will cause BSOD's on a Win8.1 host
Be nice. :)

you can't downgrade because old drivers aren't compatible with Win 8.1

its the new amd catalyst drivers.

the mouse issue appeared a few months back for me on live servers with the new drivers.
coincidentally the method for using a custom cursor also fixed the lag issue.
