Seriously, why does MWO keep doing this just sits Connecting forever at random.

Sometimes on log on most times if you quit a match..... Connectwarrior?

Oh look at that....

Left match Connecting................ Alt F4
Reload MWO, Connecting................... Log in forum make a post.
Return to MWO and yes it is still Connecting...........

Hard to have fun playing a game that will not let you play... Just say'n.

_____________________________________________________________________

I can confirm I can not connect until the match is over and my mech is available when I eventually manage to connect again. This appears to happen at random.

Redbackz, are these solor drops or group drops? Are you looking to only use a specific weight class v what the MM is recommending to drop faster into the game? And... what's your PC specs and ISP generally like?

Connecting not Searching mate. Nothing to do with finding a match.

[Zomboyd]

Same issue and its beginning to get rather annoying especially when you quit to play another match due to not wanting to wait around while the team hunts a hidden last guy for 8 mins and you happen to be dead.

[Tanreh]

Same here...played the first match...made a big error...wanted to quit...now I am connecting...;(

[Cmdr Boris]

most annoying bug EVER fix this please.

[C E Dwyer]

Can add timed out and unknown error to the list of fail

[sabujo]

I can also confirm this problem. Happened to me around 3 times yesterday. To reproduce:

• Join a match
  
• Be killed
  
• Immediately quit the match
  
• Stay in the "Connecting..." screen forever (chance it may happen)

Come on, you have taken our money and encouraged us to purchase multiple mechs.
Now how about you uphold your end and allow us to play with them even when one is still locked in game.

Funny how this problem is occurring so much more often on the weekend you want us to solo drop for challenge bonuses. With PGI's game balancing techniques that means we have to play 100 games to get 50 wins approx with the 50/50 win loss Match Maker scheme.

If the game will not let us drop into a new game until the current game is complete all you're doing is costing your customers time.

100 games at an avg of 10 min ea is almost is almost 17 hrs. Seriously give us a break.

[Taelon Zero]

Still happening here too

[Quintus Verus]

Happening here to. Most likely this is the same issue they had when clans launched and there was a problem with their delivery system getting overloaded. With three possible rewards for this challenge x1000's of users, its pretty obvious its the same issue again. Mechlab changes taking forever to take effect also here.

[Kuga ZA]

Happening to me too.

This started happening immediately after the last patch. Prior to it, I never had this issue.

[Kyzrati]

Like everyone else... same here. Happens on quitting immediately after death--have to force quit and reload the game to successfully connect again.

If this works for you awesome. It will not connect for me when I do this until after my mech i left is back in mech lab.

I wouldn't exactly call it "awesome," but it's at least better than what you've apparently got. That said, I just got desynced again when I tried to play a couple more games, and eventually just lost server connection completely, even though my Internet is perfectly stable... :/

That is exactly the same problem I am having since mid July. I would say it happens on 70% of my disconnects after death.
This is getting really annoying.

I rarely complain, but never before in the history of this game did I have to ALT-F4 back to Windows as often as I am doing now

[Beijing]

Especially with that "win 50 matches" challenge, I just want to quickly leave a match when I die and change mech and start a new game.
It is ridiculously f****ed up to have to ALT+F4 and restart the game every time... MAJOR annoyance and additional time wasted.
