Very exciting to finally have CW to play with! It's really starting to feel like a MW game. That said, I really wanted to take advantage of the weekend event to get some play time in with the new system... After somewhat figuring out how to not wait longer than 15-20 minutes for a match (usually), I finally got to play a couple. Yay!

Hm, 20 games over the weekend is doable. Maybe.

My game is usually very stable, but on entering the second match --> crash to desktop with no message whatsoever. That's okay, I'll just rejoin... oh man, no rejoin. And now four of my mechs are locked in for up to 30 minutes? Guess I won't be joining the fun this weekend after all.

Feels kinda bad that you're suggesting we play an extremely buggy new mode in order to get rewards when it's so painful to do so.

There is a rejoin, just choose one of your dropdeck mechs and then push rejoin putton.

Thanks for the heads up. I just discovered this and was about to edit my post (still, why the button doesn't switch to "rejoin" to indicate this to the user...).

I successfully rejoined, and then had no HUD. Why do all the bugs start hitting me now...

Third attempt to rejoin: CTD again. Ouch. I need to stop wanting to play MW so badly. It's torturous.

You can fix the hud thing by power cycling your mech

I've read on Twitter that hanging cockpit items may be causing crashes. I know they disabled them for a while last night, not sure if that's still the case but certaintly something to try out. Enjoy your matches! Just be patient, it's beta. Lots of known issues. Slug through it and enjoy what you can.

Hasn't happened to me in months so I'd forgotten that trick. Thanks!

Still, all the sudden bugs and crashes aren't helping. "Beta" indeed.

Ah, I never use any cockpit items, though that might help someone else.


Aaaan, ouch. Just crashed again. (I think at this point all I'm doing is pissing off other players by not dropping any mechs.)

I'm not even sure this IS possible. I've had two matches tonight. Both involving 30+ minute ways. The second? There was no defender. So that wait meant nothing. Also meant we lost the 10 minutes it took to end the match in victory, but it didn't give even close to 80 points because there was no one to fight!

Since then, with a group of 3? We've been waiting 2 hours and can't even get into a match.

I think it's time we rename the game to Mechs Waiting Online :/

Even if my game would stop crashing, how can we get 20 games in if each one takes an average of 2 hours to find and play (for me, anyway, despite using methods "guessed at" by other players). Been trying for six hours now, and successfully made it through three matches.
