    Can't shoot or aim with mouse in game, HELP! HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING

    I've been playing fine through the game with my mouse and keyboard sitting at 35% done in campaign, and i logged on yesterday and my guns are permanently holstered. If i press 1 through 4 to bring one out, as soon as i start moving, they holster again. This is incredibly frustrating as you kind of need to be able to shoot to play this game. Everything else works fine, I can look/run wherever, but the buttons on my mouse dont do a damn thing. This isn't a hardware error, as the mouse works fine for other games. Please help me figure this one out guys

    1) Have you tried unpluggin/repluggin in your mouse? Is it a USB mouse or a bluetooth mouse?

    2) Guns automatically re-holster when your in towns/waystations etc. Is this happening right when you load your save, or does it keep happening once you've left the town/waystation?

    3) there was a patch recently. Have you tried verifying your game files?

    Good luck OP.

    Try pressing X key

    I've had occasional occurrences when all my weapons and explosives become inaccessible while out in the field, and what gets me back to normal is pressing the X key--which usually is to toggle between current and previous weapon.

    Your problem is much bigger than my occasional annoyance, so it's only a longshot.

    This happens to a friend who went from v1.0 to v1.03 then when he updated to v1.04 that went away,

    It also happens when you are inside a town, you must get out and the weapons will come back.
