2++ things I have not seen before:
1 .Multiple battle endings wih nothing. The just stop and hang. No final battle stats. I ( and maybe others) just stay on the view of the end of the battle and nothing else happens. After the third time I just left it to see it if would come back eventually but nothing for 5 minutes. Never comes back. I can escape to get back to the choice to quit match and that gets me back to the launch screen but I never see the stats and .... my mech status is " still in the match" . Stays in it for quite a while. Kinds sucks to not get it back for so long.
2. all kinds of lag that I have not seen before. In 4 matches tonight, I have done the intial drop and can see all the other mechs moving for quite a while before i get the option to do anything. This never happened before. I have always been able to start with everyone. We all dropped at the same time. This appears to have changed for some reason.

Finally, i am seeing a lot more lag all the time. Every match I played tonight including a single mech traiing drop,was terrible.Eeverything jerked. I could not aim at a moving target at all. That really sucks. I don't know this is solely becuase of the patch but for the last two months I never saw this kind of lag and tonight it was 100% of the time i was playing. I hope its not the patch because its become unplayable now. for me. I will try again tomorrow but I hope this goes away. Its not a combat game if you can't use a weapone because you can't aim.

I can login and launch; the map screen then loads showing me what map is loading, then black screen and endless nothingness...
Using Vista 64 Premium SP2, GEFORCE GTX 650Ti (driver 314.22), Direct x 11.0
(FYI I wasn't getting any crashes or glitches at all with the last patch)

Have found that changeing it as per your notes to Full-Windowed mode instead of Full-screen mode seems to now allow me to load maps/games.

Cheers for a great game BTW!

No error message, always happens on the battle field, usually a few minutes into game. Only change was after crashes started was to upgrade Nvidia driver from 3.11 to 3.14. It then appears to have gotten worse.

Crashed to Desktop? Fatal Error? Frozen? Let us know what happened here!

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

• Was any error message provided with the crash, if so, which?
  
• No error message just crashed to desktop
  
• Where in the game or menus did the crash occur?
  
• Alpine peaks
  
• What steps had been taken prior to the crash occurring?
  
• Changing zoom
  
• Does the crash re-occur for you if repeating those same steps?
  
• First crash to desktop in about 8 games since patch, though seeing more lag spikes as if it is looking like it's going to crash.
  
• What are your video settings, did you change them since last patch?
  
• No change since last patch. On high settings
  
• What are your System specs? (You can include them in a [spoiler] [ /spoiler])
  
• OS window's 7 x64
  
• intel i5-2500k
  
• GTX580 (driver 314.22)
  
• 8GB RAM

Will also add that have had a hud bug where all info kept dropping out.

Six games dropped.

• Four of them black screened and never loaded.
  
• Mechs are not releasing after the end of a game, even after extended periods of time.
  
• Graphics have jagging and are clunky, on the odd occasion the game loads.

Friends are reporting the same thing.

Black screen when trying to launch from mechlab. This happened five tries out of six so I have given up for now. Radeon 2GB 6970 card, Win 7 64-bit. Don't think this is graphics related, though.

[multiplesanta34]

I'm getting random mid-game CTD's that I never got before this latest patch. Loading into games also takes longer, sometimes my mech is still doing the start up sequence when others have already been moving. The map being broken used to happen rarely but has been much more frequent as well.

Sorry I have to say. Why do you have 8GB of RAM and only using 32-bit Windows? You realize you need 64-bit to access more than 3.25GB so you are wasting over 4GB that's not being used at all.

On a side note: I have been getting session and connection lost messages as well as the game just suddenly closing itself ALOT more. As in the game might close itself once a day, tonight it has done it about 6-7 times. This client is FAR more unstable than the previous.

5 games dropped, 3 Conquests, 2 Assault. Conquest (1 Caustic, 1 Desert, 1 River City) takes a while to load and by the time it finishes, the game is already ending. My mech presumably did not drop as during 2/3 of the conquest matches, the base collector has been capped. In the Assault match, no visible problems except that the final result screen did not appear and the mech was not released for a very long time.

Update, I've just had an instance of long load time for assault.

I'm getting a bad graphics bug. Half through every match my screen goes to this. These colors flash like a techno dance rave on over drive. Impossible to play through.

Dude I have the exact same glitch, it almost made me puke. Plus it just occurs randomly and I do not know how to counter it

[Syric Malvayis]

I successfully got my game client to work by UNINSTALLING and REINSTALLING it. Once I did it, I was able to successfully play through several matches without any issues, and I'm still able to play w/o further crashes/game issues.

(I highly suggest a lot of you do the same.)

Also, please make sure you are NOT using the nVIDIA 311.xx drivers, as per the instructions found in the patch release notes!

[PanzerMagier]

God, please MAKE them roll back this atrocious patch, The game has become literally unplayable for me.

>black screen crashes on match startup (1 out of 3 matches on avg.)
>Graphics bug (almost every match)
>extremely poor performance (With my same settings I am getting 10-20 fps drop on average)

For some reason whenever I use my Centurion CN9A, MWO just goes nuts. By that I mean I join the match REALLY late (which is 5seconds after the match started) and I cannot use my chat. And the homing circle thingy is also really buggy

[Phasma Ferratus]

Of my 7 drops all had black screen, but 2 matches my screen and mech came alive after some 8 minutes with all the usual "reactor online, sensors online....." that was 7 or 8 minutes into the game where the score was already 6-3 or 5-4 ish

Never ending matches

Match is over, no ending screen, mech is blocked sind 10 minutes now.

This really needs a hotfix. You aren't rewarded the XP and CBills from these matches. Wasting our time, sadly.
