So I've come back to the game after spending a rather long time away. When I tried to patch, the patcher crashed time and time again. Well tech support sends me a "MWORepairTool" program that goes through and fixes their problemed patcher.

So I let it run while I'm at work, get home and start up MWO. It no longer says patch and now says play! So I think I'm good to go. I load into the game and hit the drop button. This is what I end up with.



Does anyone have any idea what this is and why it's this way? Before my break from the game it was playing just fine. Now this?

Thanks.

Update your graphics driver, run the reapir tool again and submit a support ticket if it's still happening.

That actually looks like a very old graphics bug. Do you have AA turned on in your video card settings? Particularly if it's an ATI card? if so disable AA and try dropping again.

Stealth Mech was an endemic bug back in Closed Beta and early Open Beta. This may not be the same bug but it sure looks like it from the screenshot.

You sir hit the nail on the head. The legacy drivers that ATI are putting out now work differently for my old HD4870 card. I can't even overclock the card anymore because the function on their control panel is disabled so you can't actualy change the settings on the card.... sucks. Plus it reset all the settings to factory when I reinstalled it.

But I was able to turn off the adaptive AA and the regular AA and now it works like a charm! Now maybe I can get some MWO action done till I get pissed off at my lack of skill lol.

Trust me you guys really don't want that. I mean I couldn't tell where I was going. I couldn't tell who or what was shooting at me. I couldn't tell anything other than see the chat txt where my team was pretty much hating on me hard lol.
