Well the way I see it is, mini map bug and inactive map screen are crippling you in game that you think you are losing C-bills and Xp from it I think you have bigger problems than a couple bugs. As for the crashing (while I have yet to see that bug) I can understand it being frustrating, but it also only takes like 20 seconds to reload the game with a different mech so do you want to be reimbursed for that tiny amount of time even over quite a few crashes it only adds up to minutes at most most likely. Also the can't tell friend from foe, trick is, shoot the ones shooting at you. Better yet, follow behind your team and shoot at the mechs shooting at your team.

I have experiences the map, mini map, and not telling friend from foe bugs quite a few times and I don't think it's really hampered my premium time in the slightest way to warrant some sort of reimbursement.

Are you on drugs or just stupid? Having a bug so you cant tell who is who is not just annoying. Play conquest without any maps or at the top of your screen just the teams points, no scale that shows what bases you hold is not just annoying. Having no hub so all you can do is shoot and hope the mech in the middle of your screen (no crosshairs or anything) is not your teammate is not just annoying. They are game breaking and if you don't see that then pull your head out of your a33 and look around.

It's annoying but it's not game breaking. It's also one of the few bugs I've gotten as I rarely get it.

If there are bugs report them to the support team please. If you haven't and are just here to complain, then you deserve to not play this game while still in development. Come back after the game is announced to be released.

Yes I said it and I have no remorse for saying it. This community is worse than the game is right now.

If there are bugs? Like the ones in this post? http://mwomercs.com/...961-bug-update/

So, OP, you basically are saying you hate playing the game, but want more free time to PLAY the game you hate playing??? Anyone else see this?

Report the reported and known bugs that are getting a fix "soon", you did see the devs post in this thread that they know they exist right?

No. People pay, as have I, to play the game offered. If the game offered cannot be played, the onus is on the developers to fix it. Letting people pause their premium time is the least the devs could to as an "I'm sorry, we stuffed up, and we respect our player base". Regular CTD in my opinion is unplayable.

I've deleted all game files, reinstalled, made sure I have the right drivers, but CTD's every session are the norm for me now, from what used to be a /quite/ stable game, and I'm getting cheesed off. I like this game, but I am getting cheesed off.

Dear PGI

I would like to acknowledge that programming is not easy and bugs happen. I would also like to acknowledge that this is still considered BETA.

That being said, the constant bugs are are a detriment to play. Losing a functioning mini-map, crashing to desktop, inactive map screen, and failure to identify friend from foe are making playing difficult which lowers overall cbills and mech xp.

3 weeks ago (before the last patch introduced these bugs) the game was the most stable it had been since open beta so I finally decided to activate my premium time. 1 week after activation the bugs came back with a vengeance. If I had the ability to pause my premium time or undo my premium time activation I would do it.

So, I'm just wondering if we can see some kind of free premium time given for our frustrations.

thanks.

It wont happen, I have allready tried. My issue was similar and on top of it, there is an exploit that people are using to deny you any XP/Cbills for the dmg you are doing to them. PGI is aware of the bug but however they have not addressed it in months and it is still here.
Incidentally, the people using this exploit are also robbing you of your premium time bonus's to boot.

Reinstall.

Delete all game files and re-install.

Agreed, I've had to do this a few times. It doesn't clear up the hud bugs, but I take most of those as a chance to beef up my skills in trying to score hits with no reticule/target indicators. I'd note that if you've read any of the posts by PGI, there tracking on some coding that's corrupting the hud, and in the middle of trying to identify and fix it.

If that was each and every game I would agree, but it's a bit of a random thing. Doesn't always happen, you can get out, restart the client and continue on.

Yes, that's exactly what he's saying.

Or wait, maybe it's not what he's saying at all and somebody needs to learn to read.

So this "exploit" how do I know if it is affecting me? Do I have to track my earnings game by game to see if I did not get my funds etc?

This is the first that I have heard of this one, weird seeing as it has been around, as you say, for months... hmmmmm smelling a tad Haddocky for my likens...
