Bolt-on and decal sales and mechs crashing servers? We had bolt on sales before and no problems, also, what makes a mech crash a server? Specially ones that where in the game for years.
That is what you get when you let Tiyos tamper with the code.
Making a Kodiak fire 4 gauss on QP for "testing" already shows his character.
He cant even bother to double check the number on binary lasers in the ghost heat table before the patch.
Remember that The B33f clip where the devs can make their own team fly? Imagine what else FrostByte may try to do, granted the lack of integrity he and the Cauldron already demonstrate.
Imagine he trying to reduce (or increase) damage taken by other players and screws up all the files.

It gets tiring of playing the game without using macros ("pro" players right there, cant even time shots) and changing the config file.
That I don't know why it is not locked, so a very few can use it to the point of having huge advantage.
Advantage that no one can detect unless they stream their own computer.

By the way, try getting me on hot water by this post.
PRIMO and his henchman are still playing the game, even after several evidence of them cheating.
But I guess he spends a lot of money in the game, that is why he is still here.

Agree 100%.

Uh, confused by the various updates...

Which Server(s) is playable atmo ? With EU back up, is it safe to have EU open ? Or is it OC only for the time being ?

Aside from the issues, I can't wait for the events! I've only started playing a few months ago and i've been saving up a whole lot of money, looking to buy like 6 new mechs come the holidays!

The EU server seems to be not quife safe (albeit working intermittently). The North American server also has some problems.

The Oceanic server is probably your best bet at this time.

Tx . I am also confused as to how a Problem related to BoltOns can tank my Fps by 10+ .

Thanks for the update, we all know troubleshooting is not easy and cannot be timed. Don't worry about the December patch, if it comes later it's not important. It is important that the game runs stable again.

In addition to the disconnections, I report drastic fps drops and very long loading times before and after the ("lucky") match...

I think bolt-ons are more saleable if they unlock between multiple mechs anyway. This is a good business move for pgi.

Did they hotfix the servers so your mech isn't locked anymore?

Not yet.

[benben10]

I ask because I got the no server bug and then I could search again and I didn't get a mech locked popup.
This was a first for me.

The lockout happens if a match is found and when a map and game mode have been chosen. You can also get the "No servers" bug without ever getting into that stage, then your mech aren't locked out ^^

[Saved By The Bell]

Again: play oceanic server only. Still alive, but low people. Dont afraid 300 ping, its ok.

[Wild Cat]

This is progressed from bad to worse.
Being forced to play on less the ideal server locations having to deal with an higher latency is something I can handle and get my MWO fix for the day and be satisfied.

But we now have progressed to, unable to play at all getting mech after mech stuck 'in game' and god knows causing who know what kind of unbalanced matches due to disconnects.

[ExoForce]

Cryengine - patch reverse, inject mechs only?

[Spazilton]

Just Kicked to lobby 3 times all the mechs locked.

[Besh]

Tbh, it is getting beyond ridiculous . How can an Issue caused by BoltOns become proggressively worse ( being present on EU only intially, then also affecting NA ) but not affect OC ? And how does the provided explanation account for massive FPS drops ?

Most of all : how can this not be resolved yet ?

[shadow cat]

Thanks for keeping people updated.
In one year never experienced any problem. It's extrange that everything happens after the Novenber patch and close to the world finals.
But I am greetfull for the efforts to restore the servers to a normal state and to bring new stuff to the game .

I hate the new map( lossing being the main reason) .

[Turn Or Burn]

Would it lessen the problem if players were to remove any number of bolt-ons and/or decals from mechs that they try to drop in with? If it does help, no pressure on anyone who payed real money for their cosmetics. I'm just looking for anything that can help until a true fix.
