Hows the Patcher working? Any major difficulties? Please let us know!

- Transition to .NET 4.0 (XP users can download and install .NET 4.0 here)
- The Repair Tool can be used to resolve most issues with installation or patching.

For those having issues with the installer, please contact us at support@mwomercs.com for additional assistance.

When I first started downloading the patch, it went really slow (0.03 MB / tick). Since it didn't speed up automatically, I cancelled the download and restarted the launcher. Then I had full download speed. Is it possible that the launcher does not automatically provide the user with more bandwidth as it comes available? Really minor issue though. No biggie. (I can exclude such a big fluctuation in available downstream on my end)

Does your patcher interfere with Windows Update?
Bcs MWO seemed to hang (pls wait) for a long time but then i saw that Windows got an Update available while MWO was patching and after starting the Windows update MWO finished patching.

Niko, I've had corrupt .pak file issues for months. Almost every patch. Today I finally remembered to shut-down avast before patching and I had no corrupted .pak files afterwards. I also habitually, because of the issues I have, create a complete copy of the installation after patching and that too today did not cause any corrupt .pak files (whereas for months simply copying a .pak file from once location to another on my machine would corrupt it).

So right now I think there is some issue with avast/MWO.

The patcher hung up for a long period of time on the finalizing patch phase. I've never had issues before this patch.

and now there is a network error and I cannot connect to the game.

You've ruined the gaus rifle, why would you increase the time to shoot? You've made this weapon useless! Its hard enough in a medium mech in MWO and a few people have gotten them to work well with the gaus but now you set them back to a point where we can't even take the same mech into battle. Bummer for the medium brawlers yet again on MWO, keep setting us back.

PGI, you rather do all the dumb adjustments and not fix some of the weapon issues like ac2 heat issues. And you still working on the 3rd person perspective..... I think I will action with actions.... I will not be spending any more MC. You had proven that you know jackshit abt this game and not listening to us

i would start a new topic bit it seems that locked in the feedback area.

after the new patch my hunchback has turned into a flying mech when hit by L lasers and now along with the damage from the L laser i get fall damage from hitting the ground. seeing the sky/ground/water as im flying throw the air from my cockpit and getting KOed half the time from falldamage is old

KF - sorry but have you tried

(1) running the repair tool to see if something got corrupted by patch

http://mwomercs.com/...public-release/

(2) submitted a support ticket with screenshot(s) and DXDiag attached? Support tends to look at tickets sooner than forum posts as it lets them update their issues database.

Good luck with resolution.

And to a couple of folks before kf, not sure how your comments relate to the patcher/installer

Still getting prompted to patch and download 2.4Gb. It hasn't happened for a few nights, but happened 4 times tonight. Each time I quit the patching as soon as it started, and then immediately re-launched the client. Eventually, I got the Play option. Is this some sort latency issue perhaps? Are people outside of US and Canada getting this problem more?

After installing a new SSD system drive a few months ago I haven't had a chance to jump back in the game. I did a clean installation with no hiccups and a quick download with one exception: despite the fact that MWO has never been installed on this SSD, the installer still thought that the target folder already existed (I verified that it definitely didn't), and it warned me against installing over another copy of MWO. Other than that, no problem.

The stupid patcher keeps downloading the wrong version of the game. The repair tool from what i can tell patches the game properly to the latest release but then when i run the launcher it tells me to download a 2.4gig patch again.

Ever since this patch came out I have not been able to even get past the patcher, when you hit PLAY it get a load hourglass for a sec and patcher drops to taskbar and then NOTHING, you bring up the patcher from taskbar and where play was is PLEASE WAIT and boy do i wait, and wait, and wait, have run repair tool and reinstalled and still no joy. I hope someone there at PGI can figure it out soon I have spent too much money on this game to just drop it.
