Greetings MechWarriors,

Get the cartoons and cereal ready and please stand by as we are deploying an emergency hot-fix this Saturday at 1:40 PM PDT / 4:40 PM EDT / 8:40 PM UTC.
[background=transparent;]
[/font]
[background=transparent;]This fix is to resolve a bug associated with the New Player Elo changes added in the last patch. We hope this fixes any major difficulties experienced by players trying to launch upon completing their first 25 matches. The fix should take about 5-15 minutes to deploy with no patching needed on your part. We apologize for any inconvenience and wish you[/font][background=transparent;] a great weekend![/font]

AKA they had to hotfix me being a [REDACTED].

Thanks for the info and the fix!

Hopefully it's what the FNGs need to be happy. :P

The fix for the desync and many other network problem is in the works. Just not something we can rush on a single-weekend.



Good. Bigger issue. Hopefully it is (completely) fixed and very soon rather than Soon™. Been annoying lately and has ruined some good fights.

The moment you fix the problem with leaving a match before it finishes (getting killed 1st and not wanting to watch others hide for the next 15mins) and get the constant "Connecting", resulting in the only solution of ALT+F4 and restarting the game, I will return. Until then...

Well I hope the fix still leaves them with a fairly low ELO for their sake. Otherwise it would be something like feeding them to the piranha's (no pun intended, really) right after they finished cadet school. :P

ALL I CAN SAY TO THIS... is .......................HODOR!!!!!!!!!!!


And lets fix the ELO system so you can play with more of your range instead of bad with good and hope for balance type concept of doom.

Perhaps they will make an emergency patch for this.

Clan mechs are woefully underpowered cannon fodder at the hands of my Awesome. (Would've had two more kills if not for the other IS mechs following behind me when I finally decided to push.)
---------
If you're in a Clan mech, act like a Clanner and you'll hear all kinds of "Clan mechs are OP" because you spent your time getting in close and fighting rather than camping in a corner... (Most players don't know how to stop you).

But if you're in a Clan mech and you camp in a corner... you are dezgra and you deserve your fate. (I mean seriously, a Warhawk cowering in the face of an Awesome?)

Yay for PPCs.

Mkay. Awesome outperforming Timber Wolves, Warhawks, etc. Before the Awesome quirks.

:P

Anyway, I'm glad the hotfix came in and helped the new players enter the harsh and deadly world that's in my view. :ph34r: I'll see you under my command console-enhanced advanced zoom. And when I do, you'll know the name "Awesome." ^_^
