Hello,

I have over a long and kinda troubled history never encountered too many bugs with this game.
The worst one I can think of was when My mech did not die, but it just... fell over and did not get back up.
But that was hilarious, so I do not count it.
But recently, I have been getting more errors while playing.
Just today I got kicked out in the map/mode selections screen, meaning I could highlight my choice but I would not see what others chose and nothing happened after the timer ran down.
I also had a bug with the mechlab where it would tell me that I had slot violations, when I did not have any.
(I had one ton and 3 slots left, placed a DHS in my right arm, then clicked save, loading took a while and then I was greeted by the warning that I had a slot violation. It fixed itself after I discarded the changes and did it again.)
Other things that happened: often I would click on menu buttons but nothing would happen, until later it would happen all at once.
Has anything changed?

I have not encountered any of these bugs in 3 years of playing the game. Seems kinda weird that they all pop up on your end now. Have you tried running the repair tool?

I have run the repair tool yesterday. It did not find any issues and did not download files, so that is likely not the cause.
I have heard others suggest that it could be serverside and that would make sense.
Mechlab runs serverside, main menu is entirely serverside, mapvote also serverside.

You may have been encountering bad packet loss while communicating with the servers. If so, then this is a temporary issue with no systematic cause.
