Greetings MechWarriors,

As you may have heard or discovered, a bug was found affecting the Loup-de-Guerre hero mech in which it's internal components were no longer present within the Mech. We hope to have this issue hot-fixed later this evening, June 3rd, 2014, at 5:30PM PDT / 8:30PM EDT (12:30 AM UTC - June 4th)

The hotfix will include the missing file including the internal slot details.
A further result of this hotfix will affect all present Loup-de-Guerre owners, whose Mechs will be stripped of their load out.

Please note that players will lose their connection at the hot-fix time, including dropping from in-progress matches. This hot-fix includes a 7kb file needed to correct the issue and return to play. Our sincere apologies for any inconvenience as a result.

Estimated downtime is 20 minutes.

Thanks for your understanding!

Hmm... New Blackjack hero shows up, and suddenly the LTG wakes up in an ice bath with its internals missing. Coincidence? I think not.

Nice heads up, Devs What's wrong with Trenchbuckets? I love mine, albeit they are a bit dusty from sitting idle

So, 7 kb data in 20 minutes... That means, they type in it with hands, bit for bit..

Figures, I just activated my 24 hours of leftover premium time.

20 minutes is a long time for a gamer jonesing for some mech action. :-(

Nah, that's the standard time it takes to feed in that many punchcards

PGI,

Please, for the love of all that is software development, please develop Configuration Management/Version Control. I'm trying my hardest to imagine a scenario where code gets pushed to the production environment like this (not testbed/development environment).

I would forgive this if the clan missile code wasn't a glaring example of you not having these systems in place or being used.
