hi all, . I am getting HUGE frezeing issues, . about 50+% of game will freeze on me - the game seems to just lock up at some point for no reason, I only use the caterpults, and it happens with missle, and lasers, sometimes not een fireing . I have max frames set, and it didnt help.

ati 6970 card areo turned off, in window mode.

Update on CTD - For me it ONLY happens during pre-start-up checks just after the load screen.

[Prophetic]

Was any error message provided with the crash, if so, which? None

Where in the game or menus did the crash occur? Right before Map loading and my group finding a match

What steps had been taken prior to the crash occurring? Complete re-install

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

What are your video settings, did you change them since last patch? Everything is on highest 1920x1080. Same values as I have always used

What are your System specs?

Played in 4 man group, had 1 guy crash almost every other match, game just completely crashes. This is the most crashes I have ever seen in this game. Not only that, but enemy team had a crash or disconnect almost every time. All in all, 1 Disconnect or crash EVERY match in 4 hours............

[Vraxx]

Had a sudden surge of Crash to Desktop which I haven't seen since the closed-beta days on my system.
In some cases I'm seeing it right as the mech start up kicks, a few times mid-game. What's odd is I didn't see it the week immediately following the last patch.

Other than Security related Windows 7 fixes, no changes to my video drivers etc.

[Prophetic]

Add the first 20 seconds of match then CTD to the list.

[Skyraxx]

Just froze halfway through a game tonight. Seems like half of the games I played were either a total freeze or CTD.

[JackPoint]

So far since servers returned today 7 games out of 9 have CTD'd or Lockedup for me.

Seems to be that I can play about dozen or so games before client crashes. No error messages, the whole client just disappears after round starts (after around 5-15 seconds).

Kudos for 'clean' exit´, though...

CTD very often. I did not experience this before.

Rarely had CTD before this patch.

Now, I have it on 3 different configurations every 4-5 matches. It is really annoying.
I really hope PGI will start addressing quality of content they release before quantity...

Same experience for me...even had 3 crashes in a row after I have tried the repair tool and a reboot of my PC after each one.

Last time I saw these no. of CTDs was during closed beta. Hopefully a hotpach can sort this out. Game is unplayable for me atm.

hey, just checking in .. seems to be ton sof frezes lately, . lst patch had no ideas, . or patch before, . now I get 50% or more frezeing.

[Derffe]

Yep. Keep crashing to the desktop. The screen will freeze up but I can hear the game still going. After a few seconds, crash to the desktop. Seems to happen most on Alpine Peaks but then I seem to be playing there a lot lately so that may be a coincidence...

[maXe72]

Hmm...did have about 50 Matches after the hotfix yesterday and up to
now i didnt have a single CTD.

So this may be solved ( at least on my system).

THANKS PGI !

Next Bugfix into queque

I lined up behind an atlas to kill him and got frozen in a black screen. Hitting him with 2ml an er ppc and 2 ac5s at the same time.

[Violent Tendencies]

CTD is worse now than before. There is no rhyme or reason, not replicable. It used to happen 2-3 times a week, and since the most recent patch, it happened at least 3 times just today.

Ok its pretty obvious why i get 1 instance off game freeze. Lots off times i try to use a LRM mech or LRMs hit a mech i am looking at my game freezes. I have to end the process per task-manager. Its 100% related to missiles, i had 3 instances today where the frozen screen showed a mech just about to get hit/getting hit by missiles with the explosions on it.

PLEASE look into this, i play a lot and now have no doubt at all that this specific freeze is missile related.

[edit] btw 2 times it was a friend off mine using the LRMs from the other team and i froze when his missiles hit friendlies i was looking at. He also sees mechs frequently DC/run into walls etc after he gets some LRMs in em...

Think you may be onto something here, I almost exclusively only experience the Crash To Mechbay/Desktop when I am using my Catapult or firing LRM's

Most of the time I have the same experience I fire a volley of LRM's I'm holding my reticle over the target just as the missiles impact or about to impact I will experience the crash

[Lugh]

I've locked at lauch 3 times today, and 3 times in combat. It's a black screen non-responding state that doesn't give a crash dump and doesn't put anything into the omicron log either.

That's going to be a hard one to track down.

[Thorprime]

Get a screen freeze, doesn't seem to be a full disconnect. Other processes are not affected. Did not start happening until the latest patch.
