I was in a match when everything froze, everyone stopped and fired their weapons occasionally at air while I walked around and shot them, doing no damage. Then after a few minuted, I saw the end of match screen. ?????????

Night time in Canada & US, so they might be wanking servers and prepare for launch.

That's a connection issue. Your client wasn't receiving updated info from the servers. I used to have that happen all the time, usually to end up dead by the time I started updating again. Now I get it in tiny spurts that just leave me facing the wrong way, or going further in a direction than I intended, or shooting something that's no longer where I see it as being.

It would appear they are testing the new secret game mode. Its called "lag conquest" and its basically conquest but with a twist; the more points you have the more you lag the enemy team. It adds to the depth of normal conquest by adding your bandwidth performance to the usual pilot skill and strategy of normal conquest.

Last i heard they were still deciding between that and "blind conquest" where all your visual sensors&monitors are turned off and you have to play using only your hearing. I'm glad they chose lag conquest because lets be honest, its far more engaging and they already have the unstable servers to build the foundations on.

Cross your fingers that it comes out with the launch, because god knows we need more game modes.

so by requesting a dev response you are rioting. Stop rioting, it is unruly. Beta is over and your tester input is no longer required.

Not to bad considering he is obviously using a Mobile Phone as his connection source.

Asking for a dev response is not rioting. DEMANDING a dev response with inappropriate behavior is rioting.

If you really want an official response the best way is to send it to support@mwomercs.com (a "game master" response and not a "dev" response, but devs don't have time to reply to every little issue that comes up)

The issue at hand sounds like a typical server disconnect/desync issue; the game is much more stable than it was but no game is ever 100% stable.

That sounds like a hell of a job. How does it pay?
