Black Screen after Map loading screen but before Mech Drop

No error message provided

• Black screen occurred after the Map loading screen but before the in game "drop" (when you power up for the first time)
  
• Have checked and confirmed that all drivers are updated and patched to the latest release
  
• This crash reoccurs every time I go to play. (5 from 5 now)
  
• I have not changed my video settings from the last patch
  
• The mech is considered in game but there is no interaction only black screen and no audio or feedback
  
• My system is an AMD 8700 motherboard running an NVIDA GeForce GTX 660 on windows 7 64 bit with 4GB ram

I have had no problems before this apart from once I took dual AC20’s to the SDR 5D

Still getting game freeze . Big ice map , First game since upgrade , latest geoforce patch . ctr / alt / del again. Informed by pgi via email that this was now a closed topic. Thought it was fixed ( Closed Topic ) , so thought i might start a new Topic. I have a 4gb gtx 680 and my computer likes freezing mid game on this game , ever since feb 5 2013 patch. Low graphics setting plus low blur motion and enabled v sync. Must be quicker to use alt tab i suppose. Still enjoy playing but would like it more if problem is fixed. Win 7 rates my computer system as a 7.9. Just tried my second game and got black screen ( during map loading ) and had to restart computer. Never happened before and more annoying than having to ctr / alt / del . 3rd game black screen and computer reboot . Scared to try a fourth right now ( frustrating ) . Silly tried a fourth time and got black screen again. Will try in a couple of days when hopefully a patch will fix this issue. Please fix PGI .

[TechKnight1337]

Frequently crashing to desktop, no warning. One round I dropped with a group of three and all three of us crashed out simultaneously mid-round.

No error messages. Crashed out on Forest Colony and River City today. High video settings, no change since last patch.

Started to get kicked to mechlab with this patch - game finishes (we win or lose, same thing), i get kicked to mechlab and the mech is still "in game" for 10ish minutes or so after.
Happened twice so far.
Edit: When it released the mech i got NO xp or cbills for that match.
Playing for fun is okay, but with no rewards..gah. Calling it a day until this is fixed

[RighteousHand]

I get the same black screen issue as Australoup...after map loading screen, but before game starts: black screen
Mech is considered in game.
Happens every time, not been able to play since patch.
I running Windows 7 64bit with an HD 6870, latest drivers.
Never had this issue until latest patch.

[suit1337]

The game does not crash for me, i just takes very long to load - if some would not be patient enough, he would assume it crashed and end the task via task manager

This is by far the worst update I have ever experience from ANY game. Be it beta or full release. The graphic glitches where my screen has a seizure makes the game unplayable, I can join a match up to 1-2minutes after it has officially started and my frame rate got worse again. Not to mention not being able to chat in game to communicate is downright annoying. Please have a hotfix ASAP.

[Keren]

Only a few games played, got following Problems:
1. All Enemy's destroyed. Game stops but statistics never show. Quit Match, Mech locked.
2. I was capping points for the enemy team not my own. Stopped capping, minimap and hud display show different owning of cap points. After a minute this got better, but even with owning all cap points the enemy team got points very fast, our team at slow rate witch lead to a los.
3. After 2-3 min of gameplay standing in enemy base, doing nothing and whommm back to desktop.
4. Not sure if they changed the HDR lightning drastic, but i'm better of using thermal vision on daytime maps.. It's just to much.

• Was any error message provided with the crash, if so, which?

Yes.

• Where in the game or menus did the crash occur?

Happens after map is loaded, every time. I cannot get into a match.

Nvidia Drivers up to date

Game was patched

• Does the crash re-occur for you if repeating those same steps?

All the time.

• What are your video settings, did you change them since last patch?

MWO is set to run in windowed mode, 1600x1024. Motion Blur is off, Running Dx9, system specs High (Generic)

Often crashing to desktop in the blink of an eye from any seemingly random point in the match. looked into drivers but no issue there. irksome in my new highlander

[CarpetShark]

Just had a crash to desktop. Checked the logs and found a whole lot of fun error messages. Highlights include:

could not free all buffers from CDevBufferMan!

This one happens over and over throughout the logs.

Level frozencity_night does not support Assault gamerules.

Well that's... inconvenient.

Sounds bad.

Then it crashed out and Dumped.

- No hud
- No enemy/friendly pins
- Ping spikes
- Disco hud
- Endless games
- Black screen before launch
- Launching halfway through match
- Crash to desktop (random)

NB: Most issues experienced on alpine - have not yet had caustic, tourmaline or river city day.

[CaliburZero]

Never-ending matches where after a game ends, everyone is just stuck and after exiting the game won't even award the c-bills for that match. Rainbow colored minimap appears and the full map won't work either when this happens. Also there's the occasional insta-crash with no notification, game just shuts down.

[Tahribator]

I'm seeing frequent (2-3 times out of 10) mass crashes since the patch. This means the game will freeze and everyone on the server will crash at the same time.

Also, HUD is out of control. Old bugs are happening much more frequently(%50 chance of getting a borked HUD).

alot of CTDs, alot of freezes... GTX680 4gb(314.22), I7 Bloomfield 4Ghz, 12GBRAM. Win7-64-Prof. .....until this patch no Problems! hf hotfixing! (if you guys are able so....)

[Le Goat]

well, first match after patching and its not looking good.
CTD at about 7min or so into the match.started the match with no hud and compass locked on north. and thermal vision shuts off by itself.

no error msg for the CTD

in game ,latest drivers, just patched and hit "launch"

i think i'll be waiting until it gets more stable.
