I recently noticed that my first Hero Mech (HBK-4P(C)) dissappeared from pilot tree. I have basic skills open but now I cannot open Elite skills. I have 2 other Hunchbacks with their basic skills open and Hero Hunchback just stays gray and I cannot select it.

When I click "pilot tree" and "medium" category says for fraction of a second that there would be 7 mech under Huncback list. Then it turns to 5. I noticed same behaviour in other mech classes too.

Is my game broken or do others have same issues?

The Champion (not Hero) mech (the one the HBK-4P/C is, should be the same one as the standard HBK-4P.
The hero mechs are own designs, but the champion mechs have the same layout and hardpoints as the source. They just have the XP mod and come with different equipment when you buy them.

The reason you see 7 for a short time is are the Champion and the Founder ones. They are there for a short time when you open the medium page but get merged with the default 4P. At least the founders where seperate at first but got merged with the default variant when open beta started. Sadly in the pilot tree they are still split for a sec. This is why you see the wrong number.
This will be fixed (changed) with the UI2.0. So i dont think they will or should fix it now. Its a minor problem (beside your maybe missing XP).
I dont have a champion mech, so i cant tell if they are still seperated from the original once you bought it.


Question is: what are the other two mechs you have on the hunchback screen? If one is the 4P it would explain why you dont have the elite unlocked (if the champ got moved to default).
And if they merged the champ with the source, what happend to the XP you spend. Eighter they got merged as well, or you got one as GXP, or in worst case, they were removed. If the last happened, you should contact the support for it.

Hey there, nice find! I've investigated your issue, but first, let me just clarify what's the expected behavior here. Champion Mechs and Founder Mechs both grant you extra experience for the existing standard variant. So basically, when you're playing the HBK-4P(C), you're actually gaining experience for the HBK-4P. Founders and Champion should not show up in your Mech Trees.

Now I've had both the Founder and Champion Mechs appear in the list while investigating your issue. If you see them yourself, don't unlock efficiencies for them. Just unlock the efficiencies for the standard variant equivalent.

I may have isolated the issue here, but if you get it again, get a screenshot of the extra Mech in your list, and send a ticket to support with the steps you followed to reproduce the issue, along with your PC Specs and dxdiag. This may help in fixing the issue <_<

Oh, dear..

One of them is indeed 4P and it has exactly same XP then Champion Mech 4P( C ). So it goes like this.. I have still buy one more Hunchback and unlock basic skills for it. After that when I open elite skills for 4P, my champion will unlock its elite skills at the same time?
