Are we talking about this problem?

[okay: copying from clipboard does not work... nice]
It was screenshot of the error message. Text as follows: "No available servers could be found at this time. Please try again later"

I am getting this message now every second game. Happens mostly after map and game mode were selected. - Problem is: The mech is locked afterwards, but there is no way to get back to the match...

To upload a picture to the forums, you first have to upload it somewhere else, first (I've been using Discord, lately, but photobucket was always another popular choice, etc). You then click the little picture of a Polaroid in the text box menu bar, and paste a link to the image in the window that pops up. It will then (and only then) embed the image in your forum post.

The MWO servers (excluding Europe server) is working just fine!

Just had a full 15-minute cliffhanger game today, and no one got disconnected!
11vs11 Domination (ie: 1 vs 1 left at the end), we won because our Domination timer had a lower count!

(Learn something new everyday... we all thought it would be a "draw", since 1vs1 in Domination)

The mode description on the connection screen literally says "Lowest time wins". Exactly the opposite with Assault: having more of the base capped at the end doesn't affect win/lose. That's an all-or-nothing metric, and tied kills results in a tied game.

atm the issue is if the MM (main server in NA) grabs you and others, then attempt to launch you into a game on the EU server that is offline. It will not free up that mech for at least 15 minutes. And if you log in/out during that time, you may end up with only a few mechs to chose from and a lot of empty mechbays.

That is actually a pretty good information.

First, I was wandering what the problems with the servers is/was. It was only said, that the servers were down, but I could not find any information on what the problem actually is and how it looks like, if you encounter it.

Second, I was worried, that all this dropping out the match, would actually result in the match taking place but without me. As starting the match with one mech down in many cases equals to losing the match, it always annoys me, if you already know that start, that you most likely will get your a*** kicked. And I would not want to be the reason for that. - But as I understand now, it means that the match in cancelled and nobody is hurt, apart from a mech locked for 15min. As I have plenty of mechs, I can live with it.

Thanks for the info.

I just had a Match, where mask stopped working on the EXE TSP, without the armor having beendestroyed, or a MASK destroyed message.

I also had a Match where i was stuck on HPG in E3, with 17.8 kph, in a wall, in a Timber Howl Legend, using jumpjets and mask.
I still could do damage with my weapons.

At first i still could change feet direction, but then jumpjets stopped working, and feet were stuck
I believe i was in a wall in a flying state.
I could not reproduce this in the same location in testing grounds

I never had this behaiviour in all the years of MWO

EU servers still not working. I can queue for a match, choose a map but it doesn't load and I get kicked to hangar with a message "no servers can be found. please try again".
Can we get any update on EU server status?

[Worm Seraphin]

Not sure if its related, but I just tried dropping into a match, map was chosen, but then it came up with the message "server not available"
I restarted MWO, but says there is a matchmaker error, mech is locked, and doesnt give me the usual option to rejoin or select another.
Also, 90% of my mechs dont show up in the mechbay selection.
Weird. Any server work goin on right now?

EDIT: Nevermind, everything seems to be back now. Phew, I had lost about 250 mechs for a while there. Maybe a server backup restore?

That is part of the bug/EU server issue. Due to its behavior, the no server found bugs the mechbays, then logging in/out shows all of those empty mechbays, One has to wait total 15 minutes for that locked mech w/EU to be released, then log out then back in to restore the mechs to their mechbays. Make sure to uncheck the EU server until PGI advises it is back online.

[Worm Seraphin]

Ok thanks guys, good to know.
I saw the headline but didnt read far enough into it.
I just assumed they would disable EU servers on the back end.

[Tarl Cabot]

And for those who, for one reason or another, still cannot change the servers, please review the following.

Scroll down to the folder C:\Users\Windows log in name\Saved Games\MechWarrior Online\Profiles then the folder with your pilot's name.

Locate and open up attributes.xml with notepad. Cntrl F (Find bar) then search for Region. Change the number to match which server(s) you want to be selected then save. Make sure you are logged completely out of the game before editing.

<Attr name="RegionSelection" value="1"/> NA only
<Attr name="RegionSelection" value="2"/> EU only
<Attr name="RegionSelection" value="3"/> NA-EU only
<Attr name="RegionSelection" value="4"/> OC only
<Attr name="RegionSelection" value="5"/> NA-OC only
<Attr name="RegionSelection" value="6"/> EO-OC only
<Attr name="RegionSelection" value="7"/> NA-EU-OC (all 3 default)

[MechB Kotare]

The ''No server currently available...'' is happening on NA/OC servers too. I'll come back when this gets fixed.

[DJ x]

EU servers are not fixed, and NA servers are now kicking people off before the game starts too.

[Ronbo]

our group of 2 we couldnt get in, and got the could not find server. single drops were fine and quick, we were able to synch drop and worked. so something in our experience with group drops.

Not fine. NA server 3 times in a row so far is kicking me back to hangar and is giving me a "No servers are available" message after the map tries to load. 4th match finally let me in and actually start playing.

Same here. The trouble is that the mech is blocked for the theoretical duration of the match, so I have to choose a different one each time.

[Katrina Steiner]

strange...had the no server available but when i get kicked from the match when it starts I can still try and drop with my same mech. Its never locked.

well for now...im just gonna go with the eu servers unchecked

EU Server issue is still blatantly a problem, not helped by the fact the server choice option keeps resetting even after manually changing the config file.
