**Update​: Fresh install indeed fixed the issue, if you are experiencing crashes like me: Simply reinstall the game, hotfix application can apparently corrupt the files and verification does not (yet) fix the issue. Glad to able to play again**

Unlike seemingly the majority of you, I have crashed upon every attempt to get into a match since this hotfix has been applied.
It crashes during the loading of the match, I have verified my files, made sure CPU cores and RAM was plenty available through some helpful software, but alas. I will try reinstalling the game as I am pretty sure verification of files is not exactly rigorous when it comes to freshly patched games.

This is what I found in the error log of my most recent attempt (I get abandon status over this, so I'm not eager to keep trying over and over):
<22:03:43> STEAM: No installed DLC apps found

could not free all buffers from CDevBufferMan!
DXInput Shutdown

So I suspect a re-install will fix this, as a verify already should but like mentioned before, hotfix - verification synchronization is not exactly a thing, typically verification compares and adheres to the latest stable release.
Will keep you lot posted, hope I'm one of the few or only one experiencing this.
But please don't bother with a 5-step typical troubleshoot non-sense reply, I am quite familiar with sorting out this type of issue and a failed file import leading to a runaway thread (My CPU gets locked up entirely due to the crash as well, quite annoying as it requires hard-resetting) is anything but a typical issue, but might be simply unfortunate combination of factors.
So no hard feelings towards the dev team, but no interest in Joe Schmucks fix-a-madoodle either.
Technical solutions/suggestions/discussion I am open to and encourage, NOT troubleshoot fixes.

Hey both Clan and IS LRMs are bugged, they are shooting wild out of the tubes, sometimes at right angles, sometimes straight back, seems to be fine if dumb-fired but happens when locked on. This was discovered in testing mode.

It only happens for me sometimes while at the training grounds, and mostly after pressing F5. Never during a match though.

[Tin Roof Rusted]

I was rewarded 7 days premium time from Nov free mech event over a week ago. And as you know, the game was for the most part unplayable.

When can I expect the 7 days returned to my account since in past 8 days I've been able to only play maybe 6 games with the login problems we all had?

[CrustyMech]

Played about 15 matches so far all on N.A. Everything seems okay including LRMs. Thumbs up for the time being...

[LordNothing]

what happened to mech stats. there are a lot of mechstats missing, some with over 500 games on them, all the warhammers are gone. refreshing them causes some to reappear and others to disappear, otherwise id provide a list. it seems there is some database corruption. the mechs are present however.

I have dropped about ten times since the hotfix patch and I have had no problems.

CN9-A(NCIX) Centurion really is from 2016.

But a free Champion Centurion CN9-A(C) is from 2014.

run the repair tool, if you haven't done so already. You might have some corrupt files or shaders.

I'll try it thanks.. in other news: my group member just crashed.. something is up.

Maybe some mod file that is no longer so compatible?..
It would be too sad to hear that anyone still finds problems!

[Saved By The Bell]

All ok for me.

Hmm. I've got them both, but for whatever reason I named the NCIX version "The First". I joined in 2012/13 (beta?) but dropped out due to my machine being a potato. New account in 2014... but I thought the Centurion was a gift from a sponsor? Considering I can't remember what I had for breakfast, I'll take your word for it . I also sold off a bunch of mechs before someone explained how idiotic that was. Made up for it somewhat, I'm at 25% of all available variants.
