Greetings MechWarriors,



We will be rolling out a hot-fix today, Wednesday November 4th, scheduled for 4:00 PM PST [12:00 AM UTC], with the following changes:



• Fix for an issue where Lances were not being grouped by similar weight class.
• Fix for an issue where players could be dropped into a match without seeing the vote screen.


• Potential fix for an issue where players don't advance beyond the 'Initiating Drop' loading screen.

The maximum estimated downtime required for this hot-fix will be approximately 30 minutes.

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

Actually I kind of like it when lances are not grouped by weight class (in bold).

Seconding. That was actually kind of a nice change.

"Wait a second. There's a blip over way away from us, and we have a Dire in our lance. And his health is going down."

"SAVE THAT WHALE!"

[Wildstreak]

Actually I kinda liked the Mechs not dropping by weight class, was interesting.

[John1352]

Hopefully the bug where ALL players don't advance past initiating drop is fixed. Had a game where everyone DCed, then most of my team rejoined, but only half the enemies did. The result was a predictable stomping.

When I read the headline I was hoping for a second they removed the voting System alltogether. Seriously, what were they smoking when thinking this would be a nice addition?

[Wildstreak]

Well, now I have had 2 matches where voting looked to be Map A and we drop on Map B.

can you give us a refund? This recent patch took choice of modes away from us.

You gave them your "ok" to change whatever they want. I fail to see a reason to request a refund.

[Jabilo]

Remove map and game mode voting from solo queue.

[Yozzman]

you mean, a refund of all the ZERO money we paid to be able to play this game? sure, have it.

[Smargl]

Guys are you even checking your patches? Because i see hotfixes everytime you release new one. Thats kinda says a lot about your code writers quality, no offence but it looks like that.

[Scifi Toughguy]

I'm loving the voting system, thanks PGI!

[MarineTech]

I have no issues with the voting system either. Keep up the good work PGI.

1. Many pieces of software need a hotfix if something is found after a patch. It happens, the best measure we as customers have is the quickness with which they can turnaround a fix and the severity of the problem. This just didn't seem that big a deal.

2. Saying "No offense" after saying something that may offend someone does not cover your ass to say whatever you want.

Example: Yo mama so fat she sat on an iPhone and turned it into an iPad... no offense!

Then why we dont see so many hotfixes in other f2p projects? And my ass doesnt need to be saved

[Desintegrator]

No hot-fix for the missing "REJOIN" button after a disconnect !

Great !

I think nobody will miss that thing...
