I have alot disconnects during a match. I have a stable connection (my router shows no dcs) and the ping was ok, for my location.

I used to play at 38 fps, after a dozen patches it was whittled away to 17 fps. Now add to that all the de-syncs, lag and discos and it makes for a very poor game. And this is NA east coast, I can't begin to imagine the crap the rest of the world is getting.

Niko, is there any news/info you can pass along about what is being done to fix the lag/desync problem that is effecting nearly every player in the game?

Catastrophic performance of the server right now on Saturday afternoon 9th August.

But why should I tell this to somebody. You know it already, but nobody cares about it !

[Pz_DC]

Connectivity droped over 50%. More then half games are un-synchroniced.

[Jorgandr]

Connectivity is so horrible the game is completely unplayable now.

What is most interesting about the latest hotfix regarding clan ERLL is I have not seen any forum post anywhere prior to the hotfix that included at least 5 people complaining about Clan ER large lasers? It would be understandable if PGI responds to weapon balance for a reason but to make a change when nobody had a problem with it shows a knee jerk reaction without thinking things through.

Now I heard that PGI responds to the rage only after a hotfix. So are they removing the heat penalty linked to firing more than 1 Clan ERLL now?

[Intruder]

Performance is worse - I've changed nothing since the patch.

The main issue is periodic freezing and huge lag-spikes and a few times I've just been completely removed from the game server. This had not happened at all in the previous few patches.

I run the game at Medium on an i7 3.2 GHz, nVidia GTX680 and 12 Meg of DD3 RAM

Average FPS is probably 35ish.

I get about 13MBPS on my UK ISP.

[Aleksandr Sergeyevich Kerensky]

i rubber band a lot now. while I normally wouldnt mind a lag spike here and there... with this last patch, when ever a push starts, I start to rubber band, and well... if I'm blocking a choke point because of said lagstorm, it affects my team mates... and thats what I hate more then me dieing...

[A banana in the tailpipe]

So far I haven't had a problem but I've seen people disconnect left and right during matches so something is up. I keep telling them to run the repair tool (not the in-game one) but that doesn't seem to be working for everyone so /shrug.

That's my feedback

[wargallow]

Since the last patch my ping has been somewhere in the vicinity of 500ms. The game is unplayable for me.
Having been a founder, and supporting them by buying various mechs, and the clan mechs etc (I shudder to think how much money I've spent on this game) I am very disppointed.
I suppose they do not care as they have my money already and I am just left with an unplayable mess of a game.
I know the lag is NOT my internet connect as my other online games are fine.
Some feedback from them would be most welcome, but there is none.

do they read these?

Hit registration is quite terrible these days. Whether a programming or server issue, MWO was never this bad for me since I first joined, despite a 130+ ping from Poland. This is with ping jitter approaching zero and a 100Mbps connection both ways, so no, not an issue on my end.

[R E T I]

You ever heard the saying two steps forward 3 steps back. Thats how i am feeling your development is going. I get the eternal connecting screen after leaving a match after being killed. So I have to hit ctrl alt del and cancel the game and restart. So when i get back in the game two minutes later i get the eternal refreshing data screen and have to restart again. I know I know. Uh huh Uh huh have you tried running our patch tool. Geeeeez. Oh Oh i almost forgot it gets old shooting and not hitting the target because of your massive amounts of invisible barriers. Please fix your issues as I have been suckered into spending a good bit of money on this game and am now stuck playing it.

As I type this, I have a nova sweatin' to the oldies in front of me. He's going to be in the best shape of his life because he has been doing it for 5 minutes now.

I WANT A REFUND FOR BUYING ALL THE CLAN MECHS. EVER SINCE I HAVE AND YOU IMPLEMENTED THEM THIS IS THE MOST LAGGY MESSED UP GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED. I usually send good praising post in games that are doing well but i am struggling to find anything. Leave a match after getting killed guess what the eternal connecting screen and then shortly after that the eternal refreshing data. And of course the invisible barriers in the game are ridiculous I hate to say this but you might need to get some lessons from them Russian developers over at Gaijin.

Only the positive ones LOL

[R E T I]

AND OH YEAH MISSILES ARE ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS IN THIS GAME.

[ei8ht]

PGI, can you post an update or response as regards this issue?

Teleporting/rubberbanding/desyncing/moonwalking/whateveryoucallit is getting worse. Since the "rejoin" patch, 1 in 3 matches. Really friggin frustrating.

What's more frustrating is that PGI seems oblivious and unresponsive.

[Borkenkaefer]

Unplayabe crap game , lol . I am out ! Just before i started. Learn to setup decent servers.

Even if it is buggy Piranha code or PGI networking (even though it shows up only in some matches), it takes time to debug.
