High Ping? Low Frames? Tell us about it here!

Please attempt to respond to the following questions in your responses:

• How had the patch generally affected your performance?
  
• Whether there are specific points in the game when your performance changes.
  
• What are your video settings, did you change them since last patch?
  
• Average FPS ingame and in the menus for previous patch and latest patch (Press F9 to see your FPS)
  
• System specs (You can include them in a [spoiler] [ /spoiler])
  
• Your advertised internet connection speed / Geographic location

Well, my FPS seems to have taken a pretty big hit, anywhere from 10-15 FPS.
The cave on Forest Colony causes a really bad FPS hit
My video settings are on LOW
Average FPS before patch mid to upper 20's up to low 40's. After patch mid teens to mid 20's

I have bad fps now after this patch too. using my APU Intel HD 4000 on my i5 3570k Overclocked to 4.5 and APU at 1400. Used to get about 30-45fps, now I get 23-31. I need every frame I can get please.

Running latest intel graphics drivers for my i5 ivy bridge. Resolution changes all way down to 4:5 1024x768 still get bad fps now.

cleared shader folder.

need a hotfix patch to clean up the mess of the patch.

thx in advance.

I'm getting HORRIBLE rubber banding, usually the worst in the first few minutes of a match. I've also had a few crash to desktops, with no error message displayed. (I never had CSD's before today's patch)

Checked the log files after CSD to see if any errors, but nothing is displayed.

My fps has been lowered by around 10 fps and 15 when in new vision modes. Does not play as smooth. Have latest nvidia drivers with all settings besides textures on lowest. Video card is 640m with 2gigs dedicated video memory. Second match got the wired colored shapes on HUD. Alt tabbed to fix.

Was 35-50 fps now 25-40. Barely playable for me

I7 CPU 6gb ram win8
was noticeably slower on all maps

unable to join in games.

After starting game the splash screen of the map to be played would show up. then the blackscreen right before game start.
But the game never finishes loading. it just sits there on the black screen.

Some people report that after waiting long enough that they do get in the game but it has already started.

It is not a graphical issue as testing grounds load fine.

i believe this is a connectivity issue due to that most of the people experiencing this are people that have relatively higher pings.

australians, asians etc. roughly around 200-400 ms.

Used to have ~30-40 FPS on low settings, best it had ever been. Now I get ~20 with spikes to 30 when I'm standing still and nobody is shooting. East Coast US. Used to have ping about 34, in CB never changed my Internet service and now it's at the mid 50s area. Not sure what causes this.

After a match ends I occasionally receive the 'no end of game' bug, my client doesn't close out/present scoreboard and has to be manually closed. mech stays treated as 'in a match' indefinitely until I relaunch the client and wait about 30 seconds in mechlab.

After the loading I have a black screen, running a 7950 graphics card. don't know the issue

[Tekadept]

I have now tried running this on 3 different machines, 2 are same spec (I7 GTX660ti), 3rd is completely different, (I5, AMD Radeon) all drivers patched to the beejezus with clean installs and i still I cannot get into a game, black screen after loading.

[Bunduki]

On my old system I was running in the mid 20 FPS range before patch, now running less than 10 FPS. Installed latest driver - no joy. Game is unplayable.

[Das Grab]

I like the new lotto game that is built into the mwo.
For people with high pings. the new game is black screen of holding, hope like hell that you get into the game. the designers have a bugg with this patched. So if your ping is over a 100. then your screwed.
Like me watched a black screen for a whole match and came in to end game screen.

[Max Rebar]

Let me just echo other players here...I am using a GT-610 which yielded about 24-25 fps on average from the last patch on low settings..it's now completely unplayable..this is REALLY bad..

Same issue for me, using a 7800 card here.

But I waited 6-7 minutes and then I actually got into the game.... But by that time of course the game was almost over.

[PsychoSick]

My Game has become incredibly laggy (rubber banding like no other) since the last patch, and out of the 4 hours I've played so far, I've been Disco'd 6 times, and no, I haven't changed my video settings since last patch. I have since then lowed my settings, but the lag persists. Hopefully a hotfix is in the works. :/

[Zarlss]

I too must attest my disastrous loss of performance in hope of a fix. For me this game once played excellent... but after today is now completely unplayable.

My performance has taken a dip, I have a pretty good rig and always had 60fps before. Now I still do during the calm, but drops down to about 45-50 fps in hectic situations where I never had such problem before. And yes, I have the latest Nvidia drivers.

[Tekadept]

The game has gone to ****, with all sorts of graphical bugs, just push out DX11 I say and be done with it. It cant get any worse then this IMO.

[Juicebox12]

Rubber banding at 15-30 ping and constant 60fps no drop down with vsync. Unplayable since patch....

[Xenois Shalashaska]

Hey hey. we all got the same problem which is probly a good thing. Means its a consistent problem when once eliminated shall work awesome again

loading screens are taking ages and after a match i am getting stuck when the match ends and all mechs stop and I dont make it to the summary.

I am getting exactly the same thing happening as well. Also taking a long time now to get into a map at launch, were as previously just went straight in.. Had no problems previously. Graphics cards drivers are up to date, and I tried turning off crossfire but no better.
