I have noticed since the last patch that I've been rubberbanding and teleporting a lot more often, and so are my opponents.

I have had one match where my opponent kept teleporting around, and somehow I teleported where they use to be, as my allies where shooting him I ended up taking those hits. So I suspect it wasn't just me, and it was weird how I would teleport where he use to be.

I've also been rubber banding around a lot more than usual as well. When running around a target, I've been suddenly rubber banding into them (without me actually running into them). I suddenly don't know where I am for a moment, and then I suddenly have my target's face in my face and I'm being blasted to death. By the time I finally disentangle myself from the mess, I'm either dead or near dead.

It wasn't happening last patch that I noticed, but I also changed mechs from a Quickdraw/Jenner to a Jenner/Raven. My Internet and computer stats haven't changed either. So I can only conclude that something went loose with the new patch.

I'm only just now mentioning it as I kept trying it out to see what was going on. It seems to start after I notice one enemy mech glitch/teleport, and then suddenly so am I and anyone else in that area of the map.

(For the record, I do not mind dieing, but when I teleport into something, stop, and then die because I'm not moving, I get a little upset. When I teleport into my opponent's guns, I get a little upset. When I teleport into the space of an opponent and take the fire meant for them, it's a little upsetting.)


Has anyone else noticed this pattern? Is it also happening to other people? What is your experience of the events when they happen to you? How often is it happening?

I'm personally noticing it around every other match to every third match since I started playing my Raven. My Jenner would do this, but far less frequently.

Just exited a match were I teleported to my advantage... which was equally as strange.

I was running into Theta trying to get my MGs to work on a Dragons exposed CT, but my allies had surrounded the target. Suddenly, I'm teleported in front of the Dragon, I shoot a short burst of MG fire, kill him, and then teleported back behind my allies.

Very strange... Too bad I don't have any recording capabilities on my computer. (I think the poor computer would feint if I tried).

By your post count, it looks like you have been around for a while, but just a thought, since you didn't mention it, have you also tried
(1) running the repair tool to see if something got corrupted in the patch?

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

(2) Also submitted a support ticket (PGI tends to look at these sooner than forum posts) with a DXDiag and Omicron log attached?

Good luck with resolution.

I've been around since around December, and tend to be on the forums as much as I am on the battlefields.

Last time I ran the repair tool, nothing happened. I can try it again, but I don't think it will do any good. I believe that other players are having similar experiences and I don't believe it's anything on my end. It might be an internet issue on my side though, so I don't know. (Will give the repair tool a try and see what happens.)

I have not submitted a report on this, as I can't tell if it's on my end or their end, and if it is my end (just typical internet having good days and bad days) then PGI can do nothing for me. If it is other people experiencing the problems, then I'd submit a report on the issue, as then it isn't just me.

Mostly, this is a "Hey, I'm seeing this problem recently, anyone else seeing it too?" Kinda information gathering post. If other people are seeing it, then I know it's not my end (confirming my suspicion) and something PGI needs to look into (result in sending in ticket report). I'm also not wanting to bother their support system too much, as lately I've been having to report people for DCing at start of a match for multiple matches in a row (same name, DC before match begins) and other such behavior. I think I'm up to about 5 people in the last week I've reported for not showing up to the battle... (I hope it's a bug on their end, but I'm suspecting not after two or three times in a row.)

PS: Thanks for the link!

Good luck with the repair tool, it is always best to submit a support ticket as they "should" then be able to tell you if it is on their end or not so you know whether or not to chase your ISP. If you are comfortable releasing it, it may also help to provide your ISP details (name, country) to the general forum hordes as there seemed to be something going on in Germany lately, but I can fully understand if you don't want to share that.

well i had this bugs too but only when i used my VPN
with my normals ISP connection no problem even thou 300 ping

[Tesunie]

In normally have low ping, but as of late I've been teleporting and rubberbanding all over the place, and if it isn't me, it's someone else in the game.

Just a match ago, I rubberbanded almost inside an Awesome, couldn't back out (was hitting reverse but was "stuck" going full speed into him") and then I MGed his red CT and he died. Then I could back away from his dead mech and apologize to my team for "blocking their shots" as I didn't have control over the teleport.

Been seeing this as a real problem with my new Raven. None of my other mechs seem to be having this problem. (I've only owned the raven for 3 days now). Of course, since I bought the Raven, I haven't driven any other mechs...

[Tesunie]

Just happened (and I've done the repair tool):
Was playing Conquest on Forest Colony. Was fighting a Jagermech in my Raven 4x near the tunnel/bridge (looks like a large drain pipes that form a bridge). Suddenly, upon the Jagermech's death, I got teleported from the bridge section, into Theta nav point (running into the capture base) and in front of enemy guns, as they shot me to death from behind...

I think it's time to report this. It's been going on all day today...
