I still think this is a polling rate issue... but only specifically an issue in this game (not like an issue with polling rate overall).

I do have two questions:

Are those of you that have this issue plugging your mouse into a USB 3.0 port or is it in a USB 2.0 port? If you have the option, have you tried switching between the USB 3 and USB 2 ports to see if there is any change?

This exact problem. Spikes in the dpi or intermittent acceleration or something. It is not consisten, just randomely spikes. If I move my mouse side to side using the same consistent motion every few seconds it will jump like 90 degrees or more. Makes the game unplayable when you try to enter a firefight and end up running in, spinning like a top in a 360 and giving your back to the opossing side. I use a Logitech G5, I've tried configuring windows mouse settings as well as the Logitech set point software to config movement. I turned off all acceleration but it's more than an accceleration problem as I experience inconsistent mouse movement in game. Mouse works perfectly in every other game I play including StarCraft 2 where mouse movement is pretty important and noticeable if acceleration is on or glitchy in any way. Pretty frustrating, ready to give up on this game.

OK scuse me if this is obvious... Are you sure you don't have a hair stuk in your mouse around the laser? Or, it had something similar and found the mouse button next to my change weapon button was set to change the sensitivity, and i was accidentally hitting it sometimes when I changed weapons.

i had the issue b4 and sometimes it still surfaces the only fix i could fix was to turn the dpi on my mouse to 1800 and voila it still happens from time to time but not as often as it used i barely notice it anymore.

Razer Deathadder btw.

I just started having this problem to a few days ago and I use the Steelseries XAI. I have no acceleration problems with the other game I play and it is kind of frustrating to have this problem with this game.

Really? No responces on this? Not even help from people who work at Activision. This is the bs that MW3 has come to. When someone posts a legitimate problem with their game, it's ignored and no one cares. Why does Activision even put up these bullsh*t forums if they don't even look at them? This is the only way a game is going to get better but they seem to be blind to that fact.

I've been playing this game since it's release and this has never happened until about two months ago when you guys updated the sensitivity of the mouse. I play with a G9x at the moment and it's a damn good mouse, drivers are all up to date, everything works fine on my desktop and multiple other games, but when I launch CoD:MW3 MP and jump in a game, every 10 or 15 seconds my mouse's DPI decides to jump 2000 points. This has runined my gaming experiance for MP and put a very bad taste in my mouth for MW3 in general.

Now, my theory is that your in game mouse settings are inconsistent, allowing my mouse to over-ride and take control for a short time. I play with very low sensitivity in game, and a very high one on my mouse, if I turn my mouse DPI down, you can definitely tell jumping and skipping while ADS'ed and dragging across the screen, which is why low sensitivity in game and high DPI is crucial for aiming and hitting targets at far distances such as sniping or getting those persice shots with non-scoped weapons.

I've tried getting rid of the mouse's program, letting it run on default but the problem still happens. I've turned the sensitivity up in game to see if that was the problem and I still get it. I've verified the local cashe and tried a standard Microsoft mouse and it still happens. I've re-installed drivers and checked for updates for MW3 and it's still there.

I want to know if this, 'glitch' has happened with anyone else and what the MW3 team is going to do about it. I know it's not a problem with my mouse, given it works in every other game just fine, this is the ONLY game I have this problem with.

Edit: Please note that by, 'mouse jumping 2000 dpi' means it will suddenly accelerate for 1-2 seconds, then go back to normal settings. So if I turn left, I'll do about 3, 360 degree turns before it jumps back to normal and I can continue.
