Did the small patch a day or so ago now I want to know roll back or patch?

1. Because now I do not have any sound when taking damage,
2. Take damage while behind cover and other mechs,
3. Without any warning my mech will just fall over and die with engine destroyed.
4. My center torso takes 99% of damage from any weapon.

Any help please....

same sound issue here, nothing had been done for ages now on Gauss hit feedback. You still lose armor without any sound or shake...

could not swear I never experienced other issues you describe, but seems odd...

Your CT taking 99% of damage is simply people AIMING FOR YOUR CT.

The "no sound when taking damage" and "taking damage while behind other 'Mechs or behind cover" is actually a factor of Host State Rewind. Your client thinks your 'Mech is in Position A, while the server thinks your 'Mech is in Position B. The server is ALWAYS right, so you will sometimes take damage when it appears that the shots missed or that you were protected.

If you take damage when HSR is involved, then you don't get any sound or warning. If you take damage normally, then sound and warning work normally.

And the reason why it's happening now is because it's the weekend. More people on the servers equals more load, on the servers themselves and on the internet routes to them. That means higher pings than normal. Higher pings equals more HSR involvement. More HSR involvement means you sometimes die with no sound or warnings.

So everybody is aiming their weapons specifically SRM and LRM just at my CT?
If is was anything other than misiles, PPCs, AC2s, ect (long range). I would believe you.
Aiming at something that looks the size of the projectile you are firing well I am sure you will hit the CT everytime.

Well LRM w/ tag+artemis is going to be very CT centric. You also might be getting dinged by Gauss from long range and not realize it.
