No Hud, No IFF, No MiniMap, No Problem. Well almost.

Solution:
1) Enable ALL video card driver options
2) turn UP MWO client video settings to your preference

I had MWO client video settings to low for everything when the No Hud, No IFF, No MinMap problem started rearing its ugly head almost every few games. Thanks to another MWO pilot who suggested I turn my graphic settings up from low to something else all my hud and iff problems have all but disappeared. In the last 4 weeks I rarely maybe once or twice No Hud, No IFF, No MiniMap.

For my Nividia driver settings I selected "performance" if there was an option to do so. Application controlled if there was an option to do so and any driver setting from "off" to "on". viola No more problems 99% of the time.

MWO client video settings all set to Med or higher. The only two I have set low are "particles" and "effects" because they annoy me.

Nvidia Driver settings with all options turned to "performance" "on" or "application controlled"

For those players with low FPS who don't have a choice, well its probably time to upgrade that hardware.

I have a lot of respect for the Com Guards and the MWO community. I do not participate in any tournaments but have to disagree with the sync dropping 4 mans outside tournament play. I used to play on two different guilds that still to this day intentionally sync drop two 4 mans. I'm sorry but unless you've played with the guilds I have sync dropping still does occur intentionally to affect the outcome of certain matches. Pilots have discovered where the authentication servers are geographicaly located and understand making one person from each 4 man that has the lowest ping almost guarantees a syncd drop will occur correctly.

Com Guards have requested all pilots to report such dishonorable behavior. I will do so with screenshots proving the talk is not just pilot banter.

Unless devs play online at least 6 hrs everyday like I do, they are going to miss a few things. This is one of those things the devs have overlooked. I was in a pug match because my fellow clan mates were not online. The enemy team announced they were a team of 8. Everyone was confused and asked how? The enemy team replied they sync dropped two groups of 4 to get around the match making system. I get tired of having to remember to screenshot every game. I just want to play with a matchmaking system that actually works and does what it says it does. I would suggest they put a delay of few seconds on the server that way sync dropping two groups of 4 won't work anymore.

At first sync dropping two groups of 4 was necessary before the 8 man drops were implemented now they are just abusing the system just to pawn pugs. Nothing has really changed, pugs are still getting pawned by teams of 8. I have played over 4,000 MWO matches online to date.

All you can do is submit an email to support and in your reply to the initial email attach your crashdump.dmp file. They are aware of the issue. I couldn't play at all today with 3 CTD's in a row and only one match. Then it started again 3 CTD's before I could play just one match. I'm hoping Dec 4th patch will address the issue or I may have to hang it up until the game is out of beta.

It doesn't really matter what anyone thinks if the game developers think it should be in the game it will be....just like when they said people should not be stacking gauss rifles in the catapult or double ac/20 people still do it. And like any other feature they develop people will still always use it to beat the system to get an unfair advantage on the opponent. 3rd person view was a goode idea at the time but really needs to be put out to pasture. Really guys? your only excuse is because people are having difficulty driving a mech? really? Are you listening to yourself? Take away the challenge of the game and it becomes nothing but another watered down wanna be simulator.
