Today after patching I get a Version Mismatch error. I have tried to run the repair tool, and I have uninstalled and reinstalled the game. Anyone else having this issue?

Mailed support 3 days ago but no answer yet...

Anyone else having problem or am I alone?

sounds like you might be having the same problem as i have. I made a post about this and a way around it here http://mwomercs.com/...to-old-version/

First off delete the files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Piranha Games\MWOUpdate

Then check your patcher log files when you start the patcher (dont hit patch yet). these can be found C:\Program Files (x86)\Piranha Games\MechWarrior Online\Bin32\PatcherLogs. the file you'll want to check is frontend_patcher.log

around the 7th line down you should see something like '11/08/2013 15:09:30 - main - Remote frontend version: 110' - thats the current version of the game, hit patch and you should be able to play after the patch has been applied.

if you see '08/08/2013 19:25:57 - main - Current version is unlisted, applying ZTN.' then dont hit patch, close the patcher and try again. If you do hit patch you'll have to download 2.4gb worth of patch to the wrong version of the game and once your finished if you try to log in to the game you'll get the 'version mismatch' error. If you hit patch by mistake just close the patcher and delete the files in C:\Program Files (x86)\Piranha Games\MWOUpdate and start again.

It seems to be an intermittent problem. some days i have no issues then other days the patcher will try to patch the game back to an older version. I just close the patcher now every time i see patch and check the logs to see if its a real patch or just this problem.

Ive emailed support and have yet to receive a response.

Hmmm.... I have version 104 but don't have the option to patch, only to press PLAY...

I have emailed support 3 times and not a single response, and now it is a week since I was able to play last time

Hmmm, the fileversion of my frontend_version.dll is 1.104.0.0 I suspect that is where the 104 in my log comes from... I will try deleting this DLL and reinstall, not that I think this will help as I already did this multiple times already.

Now I copied all the content of the bin directory from the Windows 8 to my local machine and tried starting the game...
