I'd like somebody to help me figure out what this was. So I just got out of a match in my Kodiak. Earned a cool 1,500XP. Then I returned to my hangar and my Kodiak suddenly had 0XP. For that matter, so did all my other 'mechs. And when I went to the skills tab, all the 'mechs that I had mastered showed that I had not unlocked any skills at all. It kinda scared the crap out of me, and I also noticed something I have never seen before. Down at the bottom of my screen in between the news button and the LFG button was a green bar that was slowly pulsing that read "ALL SYSTEMS NOMINAL". Clicking on this new bar did nothing. I shut down my client and rebooted it and to my utter relief all my XP and masteries were back. So, okay, a UI display bug maybe. But what was that "all systems nominal" thing? I have never seen that before. Anyone know?

It's a de-sync issue with the client - I had that happen on Friday night as well.

If your network traffic gets disrupted, the client assumes default values of zero while it's trying to retrieve actual XP values from the server.

As you said: reconnect and it's fine, because all the actual values are stored on the server, not on your PC.

That "all systems nominal" message is just PGI trolling you. They like to rub it in every now and then.

I have had this once on my Clan account. Support said it was my client de-synching from the server without the client realising it. Hence why the reboot worked.

I'd still like to know what the all systems nominal message was about. It's coded into the game so it must have a purpose that causes it to show up under normal circumstances sometimes. But I've never seen it before.
