When performing tasks requiring holding down a button (different task, different buttons), it occassionally (some games) aborts the task or restarts it.
Example 1: While repping a fattie, it stops and restarts constantly
Example 2: While capping a point, it restarts the hacking repeatedly
This is not due to a broken controller, as I'm not seeing the same behaviour in other games, and in Dust with different controllers. It is also not specific to a single activity (see above).
It is not in every game, but once it occurs I know I might as well quit the game since it will continue for a while.
Note 1: This is less frequent than in previous builds, but still occurs.
Note 2: I still have equipment attached to my PS3: PS Camera, charging station, extention-code (12m). Am using Dualshock contoller, wireless.
Note 3: For some reason this did not keep me from arming and holding a grenade, despite actually letting go of the button.
Note 4: Am not breaking the Repper-link or getting too far from the mark; it fails even when the mark is 2m away from me, and we're sitting very still and very safe.

This happens a lot and has happened in previous builds. The speculation about it is that,
for hacking, some event related to the thing being hacked interrupts the hack, for example someone spawning in to a CRU while the hack is going on.
for repping, that unless the repper is aimed precisely at the target the lock is lost.
My suspicion is that in both cases coordination between the client and the server is lost momentarily and the activity is reset. To the server it looks like you let up on the button during hacking or got off-target while repping.
TL:DR Known problem, no response from Devs I can find, been around for a long time, no fix promised, you aren't doing anything wrong. |

I never noticed this bug until Chromosome, now it happens to me often. Usually when I'm scoped in with the Sniper or when I'm hacking a site. Sometimes I notice that the hacking circle doesn't reset but the actual hacking process does reset so I'm left hacking with a full circle for a period of time (5-10 seconds) until it finally completes. |

This has happened to me since the first build (the hacking reset and or not finishing) and it is real annoying when I have two hacker slots to speed up my hacking and reset right at the end grrrrrrrrr. |

Noticed this happening a lot too.
I feel their should be more leeway with hacking.
Like being able to hack while facing outward & the entire objective being hackable. |

I do not see it as much with this build, but still often enough. It really sucks when you are hacking, or dehacking an objective and it resets the wheel.
I have also seen it where the hacking wheel is full, and yet the hack can not happen. I have held it until a firendly came and assisted the hack, and together I finally got the hack. |

Finding that it also happens when charging a Forge Gun, which makes it kittenly difficult to fire the kittening thing!
Anyhoo, have tracked my initial report on the issue to mid-September, and am not seeing any response from CCP on the topic (nor really any acknowledgement that it exists). Guess I'll try waiting another month to see if they fix it in the next build, or if they perhaps release Dust with what is basically a game-breaking bug.

Before Chromosome I experience this a few times. Now I get the joy several times each day. And it must be server/client connection issue because it gets worse during fire fights.
I suspect this is tied to the controller doing random things at the worst possible moment. Entering into the chat menu while trying to sprint. The sprint starts and then wacko mode. Happens with hacking, repairing armor, reviving and trying to throw a grenade. The grenade twist for me is if it acts up, I never know what is going to happen. Sometimes the D-Pad Up or Down gets activated or one of the four buttons for the right thumb. |

It was only once in awhile, now for me it is every game. I also find sprinting randomly stops for no reason. |
