How have I "played" MW:O recently? Well, the answer is plain and clear.

























Badly.

Essentially the same way I have since I was accepted into closed beta round two...

Win some / Lose some.

Mostly play C-Bill bonus mechs / buy nothing but modules for all those C-Bill bonus mechs.
















Sometimes i like to run a 3 PPC TBR just for giggles, if i had a gold prime i think that would be its loadout.

Fallout 4's last DLC Nuka World was a kick in the nuts so I have been playing MechWarrior Online a lot more. Such slow updates for this game is not very nice either. Looks like the drought for games is continuing for a while more....

Good thing i didnt spend that goldmech-much on this game, guess i would be regretting it by now. As for gaming habits. We actually play MWO if there is no other alternative at the moment. Sometimes i dont even play when the others are. Just goofing around in TS suffice, thats sad actually. Could have been much more, but my vision of this game seems to be different to PGIs.

Since February?

Hmm...Well up until about April I logged in played 1-3 CW matches, then out. When I had a free weekend evening maybe more, maybe less. Did group QP instead, if there was an event. After April (or whenever it was the phase 3 was introduced) my CW play dropped off dramatically as the teams abandoned ship. Shortly thereafter my play was reduced to a few QP matches in the evenings (reduced play due not just to disliked changes in the game but spring/summer chores taking much more of my time) and CW play became nil.

Now with this event, we log on play 1-2 CW matches, realize we have all forgotten how to do it right, get stomped; try again and squeak out a win, switch to QP and remember why we all left CW in the first place.

Similar.

Boot up launcher
Wait 30 seconds for the game window to start up and get through all the bullcrap brand logos.
Sign in
Wait anywhere from 30 seconds to two minutes waiting for the main menu to boot.
Check the quickstart match cue - find the cue with the shortest wait time.
Select a mech to fit the bill.
About to click the launch button.
remember it's going to take about 2-5 minutes just to find a match, then another minute or so just to start playing, and a much-higher-than 50% chance that the other side is well organized while my side is nothing but cookie chasers and ERLL ravens/shadowcats looking to pad their own score.
It'll also take an extra minute just to get back into the main UI for whatever reason. It might take more time to get out of the match than there is time left in the match, just to rub your loss in your face.
Nah nevermind.
Go back to mechlab. Look at new decals, try out some paint job ideas. Cancel so I don't have to pay anything.
Quit.
Play Doom/minecraft/megamek instead.

People who haven't played since February shouldn't ask PGI for mechs.

do you have vsync active? if not do that. also update your graphics drivers.

even if it only happens with 1 game it ma indicate that your hardware is failing...

Funny, I was in a match the other day, and one of our team mate's drops once again out of match. He comes back, and is lagging all over the place. This guy was kinda new(or I think he was) and he starts getting chatter from one of our teammates dogging him about how he needs to get a new computer. Funny thing is, my computer is up to the task on running this game and very well (or should be way more then enough) and I also get random drops, no blue screens, but sometimes MWO will make my computer freeze up and I have to hard restart. I build custom rigs, and my computer is not the issue. My internet just switch over to Fiber, and it isn't the issue either. MWO is the only game I play also that does this. My driver are all up to date.

This guy was so rude to our other teammate, just running his mouth off about how he needed to get a new computer or uninstall the game. Ha ha... I think he also told me I needed to go get a better computer too. SMH....rightPosted Image

Same old. Same old.

Hey look a gold mech.... The skin color looks more like a cross between rust and orange if you ask me. One might think PGI would have made the color look more, well, gold.
