Two bugs to report here that have been consistently occurring since I first started playing MWO a few days ago. I looked through the first page of Known Bugs and did not see my issue there. I will look on latter pages, but I want to make sure to get this information out there while it's still fresh on my mind.

Chat Bug
Sometimes when pressing the hotkeys to chat with Global, Team or Lance, the shortcut key will automatically become input as the first character in the freshly opened chat type space. I've made sure I'm not double-tapping the key nor holding it too long for it to register as a repeated keystroke. I can erase the extra character, but it's still a bug nonetheless.

Example: I press T to tell everyone "gl hf" and it will turn out like "tgl hf" in the chat box.

Graphics Bug
On occasion the entire screen will freeze, and all sound effects will finish playing without any looping associated with a driver crash or system failure. If I alt+tab quickly from the game to the desktop or another background window, I can then Alt+Tab back into the game to get everything rendering again. Sometimes the process will take only a second. At other times, the game hangs for much longer. Also, while this is happening, I will stop any non-automated functions. If I am turning to look to the left and this bug occurs, then I will return to be looking at the exact same point in which the bug first manifested. Conversely, if I am at 50% throttle, I will have continued walking forward.

I am running at the highest advanced settings with AA off @ 1920x1080.

The following is my dxdiag for system reference.

I think this is a known issue, with a workaround that you have found, but, have you also submitted a support ticket with the DXDiag attached? PGI tends to see these sooner than forum posts and it also lets them update their issues database.

Good luck with resolution.

Thanks, I'll do that now.
