I think I can safely speak for everyone when I say we're happy to have the fixes.

EDIT :: Please make sure to post a Patch Download Link!!!

On the side, is there any chance we could please have 24 Extra Hours on the Weekend Warriors Event due to the interruptions that these downtimes are creating?

Can we get any fixes for the crashing game, when I want to close a chat window, or make a double-click?

[zudukai]

[Kaeseblock]

And lose out on ALL of the Extra Damage and Component Destruction? Are you nuts?

We were going to have a nice month without this trash mode...

It isn't only the tooltip that's bugged. The ghost heat for clan er micro lasers is still 10. It has not been changed to 14 properly in-game. I have not tested the pulse lasers. Hope you guys fix that soon as well.

Uh, I think you got that wrong: The micro lasers were switched to the ghost heat ID 14, their ghost heat limit wasn't increased. They just don't share a group with small/medium lasers anymore.

SERIOUSLY?!?!?! You drop the servers in the middle of a match instead of just waiting for all the matches to end and block starting of new ones like the other normal games?! SERIOUSLY!?!!?!??!!?!?!
Ffs... what is wrong with you, PGI? You really have no shame.

You do not read Patch Notes very well, do you? The "10" is the CORRECT number for how many you may fire before being penalized for shooting too many at one time, which happens to be an increase from "8" at previous. On the other hand, the "14" is a Numeric Identifier for the Group in which the Weapon is marked under for such penalization. *sigh*

They have always done this for the more than 2.5 years that I've been here. At least when they do that, the Match in question does NOT count against your lifetime stats.

It's called reading. You got multiple warnings. There was a banner in the lower half of your screen stating that there was a hot-fix on the way (time indication). And there where messages at the start of the match in red letters.

I could even finish a match that started with only 5 minutes left

Restart Steam if you haven't already.

If you mean hot-fixes after a patch? Well that's almost standard with PGI.

Wow imagine someone reading something and disagreeing with it, even if they don't know what they are talking about.
What has this world come to.

Cannot change mechs within the private lobby. Did some 4v4 last night, and everyone had to drop out of the lobby to change their mechs.
