Greetings MechWarriors,

We will be rolling out a hot-fix on Thursday April 23rd, tentatively scheduled for 3:00 PM PDT, with the following changes:

• Restoring the Loyalty Point/Faction reward summary at the End-of-Round screen for Community Warfare matches

CHANGE DETAILS

After the April 21st patch, the Loyalty Point/Faction reward summary is not available at the End-of-Round (EoR) screen for Community Warfare matches. Thursday's hot-fix will be restoring that summary screen.

Please note that all Loyalty Points and Faction rewards are still being awarded as normal. The absence of the EoR summary is purely cosmetic, and has no impact on your rewards.

The estimated downtime for this hot-fix will be approximately 1 hour.

When services are restored you will be required to apply a small patch.

Did anyone else notice that with this patch, if your torso gets blown off, your arm doesn't fall off and the weapons on that arm is still functional?

example :
2 AC5 on LA of a Zeus. LT gets blown off. The LA is still on the paperdoll and the 2 ACs are still firing.

This has been happening for quite some time before this patch.

oh ok, thanks for the info. This was the first time I've encountered it, or maybe just didn't notice.

at least 1 year (happend more frequently on my fatlas, but once you get a single bit of damage to said ST or attached arm, it will fall off.

Sometimes I wonder how this stuff gets disabled at a whim, since no component that is connected to the rewards screen has gotten a change (unless it's all done internally).

Whatever I guess.

lol COULD BE, (to over simplify) a corrupted *if this then that* command line?

They may have added code for the Tuk event to the summary screen. If they tested the new display and then forgot to test the previous display...bug.

Ummmm. A nearly 7 gig patch is not small. WTF happened?

Derp. Wrong launcher. Gonna take forever to get the Public Test version up to date.

That looks like it's for a future Public Test for the Mechlab update (it's a large change).

A lot more little things get changed than they mention in the notes. Bugfixes and little texture tweaks.
