We all know about the bug where it swaps out your dropdeck for a trial one if you leave FW and come back. One that I haven't heard about was, if you go to scout mode, and then come back to invasion, not only does it reset your dropdeck, but you can only select the trial commando.

I was in a group when this one happened and it didn't just happen to me, it affected everyone but the party leader. We had been doing scout mode and decided to switch over to invasion. When we found a planet to drop on, I couldn't fix my dropdeck. It also wouldn't let me change the commando at all.

Another bug I ran into was when I was trying to drop it kept me in the 'select' screen even after I landed

I'm not quite sure how this one happened, I was just picking my mech as normal, and then the countdown timer kept recycling, even after I dropped, I had to leave and rejoin to drive my mech again.

And this bug I ran into a few days back. I hit 'cancel' JUST as three more people joined my scout match

It was as if the game couldn't figure out where we were in our relationship. Should I stay or should I go? Baby you've got to let me know!

Yes... Fix the drop decks! It sucks to be changing always when you go out the group window

There is another drop bug that I really hope gets fixed when they introduce the 2 dropdecks...

Some heavy and assault mechs get caught in the ships cargobay for 1-2 seconds before dropping.
When that happens there's a fairly good chance of leg damage upon landing. Posted Image Posted Image Posted Image

(I believe the bigger the mech the more often it happens, but I've no data/facts to back that up.)

I had a rifleman selected. My friend called me to play scouting. I accepted the invite and appeared in the social window with a rifleman, I went to mechlab and selected a centruion. When I did it stayed on a rifleman. I went to faction warfare tab and it said "Not Ready" and did not show me my drop deck. The group leader changed us to invasion and it had no effect except now the social tab said I was in a victor.

So I can't see my drop deck and can't launch any faction warfare because my drop deck is invalid.

I don't play much FW, but wanted to try this scouting
