First 3 games after patch: Black screens. Had to alt+tab to get the map to load.

Forth game: I'm stuck loading the map. Couldn't alt+tab, Ctrl del or anything. Had to do a hard restart of PC.

5th game: Loaded into alpine. Crazy pugs charge open ground and get smashed; we are losing badly. The enemy counter charges over the ridge to finish us. 1 by 1 they just stop moving and stand there. We pick them off at point blank and win the game.

I guess they all crashed?

6th game: After alt+tabbing to load the map, my mouse pointer appears on the screen and the hud disappears - can't do much in that game.


MWO was working perfectly pre-patch and I've changed nothing.

P.S. I have an ATI card with the latest drivers.

There's a 5 or so page thread about this in the patch feedback forums. It's affecting higher ping players, lots of Australian and NZ players affected.

Even if you are the administrator for your system, setting the program to run as an administrator helped a friend of mine get back on.

Submit a ticket and your DXDiag text dump. Mods will probably move or lock this.

Beta 13.3 ?

Game was unplayable.
I had to reinstall the client and went from 13.1 to 13.3.
Runs smoother than before the patch.

No, 13.1.

I'll try the beta version.

[Profiteer]

Upgraded to 13.3 beta.

4 games have loaded in a row now. But there is a solid 30 sec black screen just before zoning into the map.

I am hoping they are collecting good data on this, which they usually do.

We can all only hope that the newest of issues can be resolved quickly.

I don't know why I bother lately, this game just annoys and frustrates me to no end...

But yeah, getting the same thing, not dropping till all my team mates have moved off. And on a side note, my ping seems to have jumped an average of 50ish ms.

Also AMD card here.

Black screens: I just wait a bit more, and it appears. Sometimes I'm half minute or more into the game. Just alt-tab out and in, wait, and it will load.

Mouse+No HUD: Manually shutdown and startup your mech, and hit ESC two times(thats always good). You will get your hud back for some time.

My game stopped freezing now that I got 13.3 and restarted. It was starting to freeze this week.

This patch reminds me of the one they did just before the announced open beta patch, the one that caused them to roll back open beta, TERRIBLE.

Latest drivers AMD,


warping mechs EVERYWHERE, hud bugs, CTD, misfiring weapons (more than usual) and your general assorted map bugs.

[PropagandaWar]

Its the first time in months ive experienced it. Some good games then bam Kalidascope. Huds a wacky too never had that problem before. Well itll be a weird two weeks.
