Since the update I've only been able to play 1 game with a medium mech. Searching.... is all I seem to get.
Every once in a while I'll get a "Can't find match" or something to that affect.
Please...Go back to the old matchmaker until you find a solution.

Ooh, joining is working well for me now. Yay hotfix!

Just got out of testing ground. Waiting for slow honking upload speed to youtube videos.

Testing condition, 1 Trebuchet Loup de Guerre kitted with 2x LRM10 (720 rnds, for 36 volleys) 2x SSRM2 (100 rds, 25 volleys) and 2 medium lasers. Tourmaline desert, all weapon systems fired independently...LRMs til ammo depleted, then SSRMs.

Target Commando CMD-1B, 128 total armor, 84 total Internal Structure Points (212 mage damage should disintegrate ENTIRE Mech) and Cicada 2A (128 total armor, 134 IS total destruction 262 hitpoints),

Test 1, Commando at 182 meters, 18 volleys of LRMs (360 rounds for 396 damage) before CTD (lovely stable client, PGI)
Test 2 Commando at 196 meters, 14 volleys and dead (308 total damage)
Test 3 Cicada at 190 or so meters, remaining 22 LRM volleys (after test2) (242 damage) and 25 SSRM volleys (200 damage) and NOT destroyed (442 damage)
Test 4, Commando at 509 meters, 10 volleys for 220 damage, destroyed.

LRMs appear to be showing SCALING damage (much as proposed for "sub-minimum range" Clan LRMs) with damage registration improving the farther one shoots from.

Will post the videos when they finally upload to Youtube. Though with a 2 mb/s upload space and an average size of 600mb, don't hold your breath, lol.

Since last patch I cannot log out of game. I hit log out and go to sign on screen with the connecting screen over it. Waited over 5 minutes both times and finally had to pull up task manager to end task to get out of game.

[gavin darkskies]

wait time is stupid long and when playing missles either don't fire at all or do zero damage...as a guy that not only paid for founder the moment this game went public but also bought in to the clan update and has played off and on for years it is really making me irritated to not be able to get kills in my favorite mech due to waiting for ever for a game to open up or just firing missles that do no damage only to get killed by lasers from the enemy...
tell me there s a fix for this....
oh and this 3/3/3/3 nonsense is no good either it makes it take twice as long. and I wont use light mechs or mediums cause iwant t live longer then two minutes if I gotta wait 20 to get in a game!!!

[Uncleclint]

Wait times for me were as long or short as before the patch and I played for 3+ hrs now. There seems to be a problem with missiles and their dmg at the moment but (according to Mr Berg whom i´ve met in a match an hour or so ago) it´s already a known problem.
3-3-3-3 seemed non-existant in almost every game so i guess it wasn´t working as intended again and got turned off. I´d really recommend to bury that idea and come up with a more flexible system.

But anyhow, for me the waiting times were not half as bad as many here said they would. I just hope that the premade limit to 1 per side and per match is still active, that was srsly ruining a couple of matches in the last days.

[Zen Orac]

The website and the launcher say the servers are up but when I try to login it says that the server is down for maintenance. Anybody else having this problem?

[Abbraxus]

2 matches in 3 hours of trying. Could net get a game in any of my mediums!.

Still cannot enter the training rooms as i get the spinner & connecting in middle of screen, only way to exit is to alt-f4.

srm's and ssrm's not registering damage amongst lots of other problems.

Instead of releasing more hero/champion mechs in yet another blatant cash grab why dont you try fixing the game? just a thought!!!!

[FlipOver]

Well hat's off to you, PGI

Great way to promote private matches (when at least 1-2 users need to have their premium time active until it runs out).

GG!

[mtss]

same situation with connectivity to matches.

[Gumon Choji]

When I played in the afternoon yesterday the wait times were abysmal. In the evening when I chose the mech in demand my wait times were in seconds.

[BM4202]

PGI...
DO YOU WANT TO FAIL!?
DO YOU WANT TO GO BANKRUPT!?
But Seriously, listen to the guys on the forums, such as Koniving about the Dropship idea,
And especially listen to all the NGNG guys.
The reason I say this is because I'm willing to bet they spend a fair bit more time in-game
then you do (Because you are very busy with clans, CW, etc...)

When people load into this game, they want to click a mech, hit the battle button, and get fightin'.
games such as WOT can do well with this model because the wait times are extremely short
(they put MM time level as a priority) and because the fluid UI lets you get things done quickly.

These guys on the forums know what's up, and they also have invested time/money into this game, because they want it to succeed. I have invested money into this game, because I want it to succeed, And when the stars align and i get a Match not on Terra Therma (the Komarin of MWO) in a decent time,I HAVE A BLAST!

Please Listen to your community, they are your most valuable resource.

That has never been the case, that someone listens to the community !

It's a nice wish, but forget it. Not in the past, not now, not in the future.

Some Metallica fans would say: Sad but True.

I am having an issue with SSRM since the latest patch (May 20, 2014). The hits do not seem to be registering. Damage numbers are not matching the typical damage for tons of rounds expended. I do not know what changed specifically, but it has broken SSRMs for me. Multiple matches in Commando 2D 3SSRM (3 tons of ammo expended) and a KTO-18 5SSRM. Weapons fired well within their range, but hits are not registering. A typical match with 3 tons of ammo expended for me was about 500+ damage dealt in the Commando 2D. It is now only about half that total. I am also only hearing the SSRM impact noise inconsistently.

Fix it please.

Missiles of all kinds are basically broken right now. They've at last acknowledged this bug - thanks to the community for doing the testing to prove it existed, by the way - but no ETA on when it'll be fixed. The suspected rumor is that somehow Clan missile damage scaling based on range worked it's way into the code (please don't ask how) and is somehow partly to blame for nearly non-functional missiles.

[Vadafallon]

Missles are broke, the game is uber laggy and it takes forever to get in a game. Hotfix needed ASAP!!!

[CodeReaper]

All who have wait issues...
I also had this issue till I did a full clean reinstall of the game.
1. Uninstall MWO
2. Delete directory that is left over.
3. Delete any AppData left over.
4. Download client.
5. Install and Patch.
6. Play

This fixed it for me but had to delete all files and do a total clean game install.
Hope this helps some of you.

[Esperax]

nice, another useless patch

[Troopie]

After last update few stuff game up from user perspective. Modules were arranged differently, still there is no way to arranged by user. So that's just new thing, what user needs to find out. What was point of that change???

Shopping bundles. Now you cannot see bundle content, so user needs to go webpage to see content. Why???
Now we are speaking about using real money...

First disconnect in a while just now.
