Bug #8332

Input Delay Anomaly After Opening and Closing Match Details Screen

Status:	Open
Priority:	High
Added by:	Anonymous on October 30, '26
Assigned to:	Unassigned
Due date:
Reported for:	10.2.2
Actual Result:	The skill check input registers earlier, often resulting in missed skill checks if attempting a great skill check
Expected Result:	The skill check should be the same timing regardless of prior menuing
Severity:	Unknown
Reproducibility:	Always
Platform:	Playstation 5
Additional Notes & Comments:	Marked as "unknown" due to not knowing the exact wider implications of the issue. Video evidence can be provided upon request, though I don't know what good it would do without an input display capture, which I don't have access to. Controller used is a DualSense Edge. Interactions bound to Circle, Skill Check bound to L1.

Steps to Reproduce

Start a repair/healing interaction with toggle interactions enabled
Wait for a skill check to appear, try to hit a great skill check
Open the match details screen, then close it
Wait for a skill check to appear, try to hit a great skill check with the same timing

Explanation

Skill check input delay changes when opening & closing the Match Details screen on console, resulting in noticeably less delay moments after closing the screen. It also seems like it might have an effect on other inputs, such as player movement (E: the game also stutters ~5 seconds afterward, see comments & videos). My hypotheses is that it either has something to do with the forced V-sync on console, there's some sort of memory leak going on with the UI that resolves when opening the match details screen, or some other kind of cache refresh happens when opening/closing the match details screen.
