After UI 2.0, 50% of my drops turn into my mech dropping into the game without a pilot.
I get bounced back to mech lab and get locked out of my favorite mech for the next 15-20 minutes.

And yes I updated my drivers, and yes I ran the repair tool... still didn't do a thing.

Look PGI, at this point my expectations is not that you fix this game, just let me play. I don't care if I have to fight 12 jump jetting PPC AC20 victors, or being strafed by 12 fire starters, or 12 LRM stalker out in the open. I don't care, just let me play.

I was planning to buy clan mechs. But I swear I am not going to drop a single cent if by the next the next patch I am still getting dropped from matches at the same rate. Don't think I have nothing else. I've got Warframe, and a billion more games on Steam...where I could waste my time and money in a more enjoyable and dignified way.

You have till next patch.

Um... Tech Support, not Gameplay Balance? Look... your raging is completely misguided. These forums are out of control as it is and this isn't helping. Maybe you should delete this post and do a more insightful one on the techsupport forums and give a ticket to PGI.

I've discovered after a few CTDs that even if you mech says "in game" but that match is over, you can still select it and drop, even if it still says "in game".

These forums (Patch Feedback, at least) ARE out of control...and lord knows I've done my share to get them that way.

Maybe that's the point, though. It's not as if the "powers that be" pay attention to anything anyone has to say, anyway. At least, not that we can tell. Generally, communication is a two way street...we don't get a whole lot of that here, and when we do...it's happy noises telling us all will be well to get us to shut up, then we get blown off again.

Virtually EVERYTHING that is getting put in this forum that doesn't really belong there exists on another forum, somewhere. And virtually all of those other forum strings, although filled with responses from other players, have elicited very little or no response from anyone at PGI.

Some of these issues make the game pretty much unplayable...hence the term 'gamebreakers.' But, I suppose, as long as these 'gamebreakers' can be overcome by spending money on Hero or Champion mechs, they see no real reason to fix it....because, well, if our quarterly earnings are high enough, it's a bonus check! Whee!

I know. UI 2.0 is a horrible travesty...let's roll out a new 'mech. The matchmaker is so horribly broken that there are string after string of topics about it on both the gameplay balance and patch feedback forums....I guess that means we need to put a few camo patters and/or colors on sale. If you're not seeing this pattern, you haven't been around for very long.
