You have a serious issue with this auto penalty garbage.. I'm using an older PC, and sometimes it takes me me a while to drop in the match. Sometimes the match has been running for 3-5 minutes before i can get moving.
Look, no offense or anything, I'm playing on a 6 years old PC myself, however if you can only start moving 3-5 minutes into the match you are seriously hurting your team and should stop playing until you can play from the very beginning. That said ...

About all I can say is "wow". You really expect PGI to do something about this problem? Wow. Sorry, PGI ain't gonna buy you a new computer. The problem is not on PGI's end, so why should they fix it? Here's what you do; hold off on some brewery equipment for a bit and crack open the wallet for a new rig.
Don't be a D-bag before you know all the details. Look at the min sys requirements PGI stated for MWO back in CB, then build a PC with those min matched and try playing. You won't be able to.
When devs tell you that your PC is enough to play their game and you buy it only to find out that it either crashes every single match or produces 10 FPS at best its THEIR fault. Lets be honest, most "normal" developer studios would rather state excessivly high min specs so that they don't have to "waste" time on optimization and testing on older machines. This way when you buy their game while having a PC that is below min specs you do it on your own risk.
What PGI did tho was "roughly" estimate the min requirements without ever testing their game on older PCs. Plus, I think we can all agree that MWO has way too many bugs and little to no optimization. The simple fact that I can run Crysis games using the same engine at high/ultra settings stable @60-80 FPS without any issues while I can barely squeeze 30-40 FPS out of MWO on low tells me all I need to know really ...
You can bash the dude for insisting on playing while he is always 3 mins late into the match, but you can't bash the dude for not having an adequate PC without knowing exactly what his specs are.
