Its almost to the point that I can not play at all on the weekends anymore. I dont have many issue during the week but once the weekend hits and larger numbers of people are on, the game just shits the bed for me.

Glitching, freezing, lag from hell when any light fast mechs get ANYWHERE around me. Hit Rig is just atrocious at times. I dont see how CW is going to fair if we end up with all these issues carrying over and left unchecked. PLEASE!!! For everything good in the world... can we just get a few patches for optimizing and bringing the game back into a playable state (any time we are on)?

Good luck with that. You'll definitely have to wait in the new year for any of that, because of CW.

Something in River City hits my framerates really hard. I sometimes get sub-30 frames on a system running an R9 290X and Intel 2600K OCed to 4.6 GHz.

i have a DWF, 4UAC5 6ERML, brawled a DWF with a buddy AS7,
the DWF killed my buddy AS7 wail i was hammering the DWF's side and front,
then he turned to me, and took off my arms and cored me,

end match findings 128 damage, i used over 200+ UAC5 Ammo,
im sure 50%+ hit him, my Ping was 530 during the match,

should i give up on MWO when my ping gets over 200?
Play another day when my Pings lower?

Usually performance is not too bad for me but I was getting some crazy framerate drops in an Alpine Peaks match earlier, it kind of seemed like that happened when I looked toward the enemy team or something (which I've heard can happen) but if that's the case then it's kind of weird because I can't recall it happening much at all before; maybe it was just a fluke.

Either way I don't really expect much in the way of optimization.

I get by on ~250 ping. Anything over 300 starts to get into unplayable territory.

As for optimization I'd love some. Currently turning on any vision mode (especially heat vision) cripples my FPS into the teens, and basically makes the game impossible to play.

Rumors are AMD is releasing a GPU Wonder-Driver in the next few days - may be it will do wonders to MWO too...

I'm genuinely curios to see where we go in January.

[Andi Nagasia]

after CW comes out there are 3 things we really need,
these System related Optimizations i feel are most important,

1) in-game VOIP, because your know Team work,
=would help in both Pugs and CW as not everyone has TS, or can quickly go on and switch to a TS channel,

2) working HSR & HitReg or a system to replace it, as firing 2AC20 at 50m shouldn't only do 13 Damage,
=in some cases with pings over 200 you could lose 25-50% of your weapons damage,

3) Collisions rework(Mech to Mech & Mech to World), because 100Tons of Mech shouldn't get stopped by a pebble,
=having any-weapon hitting an invisible wall and not your target can really get on your nerves,

You are listed as being in MI, so you should have a good ping unless your ISP is pure ****. If your ISP is pure ****, there is nothing PGI can do to help you. Update all of your video card, sound and bios drivers. Look at your ram, video card and processor next. If you are on a machine that is 4+ years old, it could very well be your machine. I've ran MWO on a mid range core 2 duo from 4 years ago w/ 8 mb of ram and a ****** amd card and it ran very well.

I know you don't want to hear it, but you might consider upgrading your computer and internet. I have a friend who plays with a very good video card, but only a dual-core processor. Granted he gets on average about 15 fps, but to be able to play on a Crises 3 Engine game with a dual-core is pretty amazing. You need to consider possibly upgrading at least your processor since it's processor heavy...

Whenever I look out to D4 (I think) on the Mining Collective map, my framerate plummets from ~25 to around 8. :[

Well if it's mostly just weekends that mess you up, it's network optimisations and just better server hardware I think you really want. General game optimisations and may have a significant effect too from how sensitive to fps the HSR seems to be.

Wonder Driver is released - very nice minFPS boost on good Machines.
