It's been almost 4 months and it still disappears randomly in this game mode. And by the UI, I mean every bit of usable data for telling your location, which mechs are teammates or enemies, ammunition counts, weapons loadouts, the HUD and all of it's information, and more. The game is not playable in this state, and this should have been fixed *months* ago.

Are you sure you do not have something hotkey to the key combo to turn off the UI display, possibly an overlay which may be intercepted by MWO ????

Default in-game is now F7.. it appears it used to be Shift key + F11 from previous threads a few years ago... Player was having issues with Overwolf and MWO UI disappearing on him.. You can test it in the Testing/Proving Grounds

Yeah, I haven't seen anyone else post about this issue. +1 for it being caused by something else.

Happens randomly every time i'm in event mode and *only* in event mode. This issue does not occur in any other game mode for literally anyone experience it And no, I don't. Neither does anyone else who's had this issue since the event mode public test.

Basically, it's related to drop decks. Play an event game mode where you'll have only one mech in a drop deck, and you'll literally never see the issue occur. Play one with multiples, and it'll disappear roughly, about every 1 out of 3 mechs you drop in. You're not hitting a command, there's no way to restore it. And I'm not running any mods on the game to begin with, neither are most of the people running into the issue.

There used to be a similar issue in other game modes that had drop decks a few years back, but PGI was able to fix it there. Including Solaris and faction play. So this isn't even a new, unknown issue, except in the game mode it's been persisting in for months now.

It can’t just be drop decks. After years of running FP and most recently 3 dozen drop deck matches in event queue, I’ve not seen what you’re seeing. So there must be something else required to generate the error.
