A few weeks ago I died on a Canyon match and spectated a Madcat that I suspect was suffering from the heat bug.

He he got his side torso destroyed at 2:39, kept up decent heat dissipation for 10 seconds or so (so the reduction was not just from the ST loss), then suddenly the heat starts going down very very slowly - about 1% a second. He can’t even use JJs without overheating almost immediately. Pretty sure it was the heat Bug at play. I have another video showing the end screen somewhere, I’ll have to dig it out.

Skip to 2:25 unless you want to see me flailing about.




Edit: Ah, end screen here:

He lost side torso and heatsinks on top of that according to Betty. Canyon is a warm map too isn't it. That seems about on par with what I would expect and have experienced. At that point he could be down to 6hs dissipation if I understand the maths after the heat patch.

Compared to the post from last year in this necro thread, that dude was clearly suffering a bug.

This is real. It hit me on Tuesday during a drop on Rubellite, and man, it pretty much sidelined me.

I've experienced this bug playing a Rifleman LK, Jagermech FB, MCII-B, and NSR-9P. The heat scale moves at a rate similar to equiped stealth armor dissipation rate. All of the mechs also still had both side torso functioning.

Had the heat bug hit in a QP-solo match on Forest Colony Classic (Snow) the other night. Seems it only affected my team, enemy team apparently was unaffected. Enemy killed 3 that tried to just run & hide when it was clear the heat bug was occurring, heat got the other 9 including myself after my first alpha (STs intact). Match ended in about 4 minutes.

"Wanna buy a mechpack or preorder MW5?"

I had this bug today on Canyon map, but actually my heat was going UP. I stood in a corner, nobody shooting at me and heat was rising while not doing anything. Not "not dissipating" but actually climbing.
Unfortunately no footage or game id... next time I'll write it down.

LOL.. PGi doesn't care.

Now, would you like to buy MW5 or a mech pack?

When they code in crayon, this is what you get. This has happened in World Champ matches, including at past mechcons.

I hope this won't be considered threadsurrection, I just want to confirm the bug is still present. Had it happen yesterday on Polar highlands for the first time in 3 months that I'm playing. Quad ER ppc Warhammer IIC with 18 DHS cooling down as if I had no heatsinks at all. I asked via comms what the hell is going on and somebody replied that it's a known bug. How can something like this still be around by 2020. I personally won't invest a dime in real money into the game until this is confirmed fixed in the patchnotes.


they don't know how to fix it

Had it happen alot on my assaults. Once it was the opposite, I cooled down almost instantly after heavy laser vomit which fills the bar to 80% at once.

Just happened to me on my alt (tee hee).

Map was Mining Collective.
Mech was Assassin 23 with 3xASRM 6.
It looked like several players were running into the same problem, many 'Mechs were overheating on both teams.
There was crraaaazy lag.

I had to switch to chain fire mode and fire one SRM 6 every 5 or 6 seconds or so to prevent heat death. Good to see this bug will be here till the end of time.
