So I noticed that the whole front page is full of complaints of low FPS, bugs and whatnot.

So i decided to post that I'm happy with the patch!
My FPS is a solid 60 in all maps. That almost never changes, except when all 16 mechs get into brawl range ... then maybe ill dip to 45. sometimes. rarely.
I use a Radeon 7970.

For those having low FPS issues, if you run multi card setups (SLI or Crossfire), physically remove the Bridge and run it on just one card. Software disable never worked for me, only physically removing the Bridge helped.

I say this because my old PC was 2x Radeon 5770s on Crossfire, could barely get 20 FPS on lowest settings, and would frequently dip to slideshow, performed above and game sat pretty at just under 30 FPS on max (except shadows, that PC hated shadows XD) settings.

For Heavy Metal, i love it. Quite a variety of possible builds and roles.

Now for the negative
Caustic Valley, Frozen City (Day) and Alpine Peaks, light reflection on the ground has gone waaaay up. Its almost blinding.
However! Solved the issue, slightly, by turning down the Environment slider to low.

Other than the very rare CTD at the end of a round, and rarely losing Minimap/Target indicators, This patch has been very good to me.

And thats all i got. Looking forward to next patch day

PS: please do something about the horrible abundance of high alpha one shot wonder builds, I wanna play without losing my CT armor in one salvo on my FAtlas >_>

I love the damage decals!!!

Taking down an enemy mech, then standing over their smouldering ruin with the armor peeled away to reveal the internal structure... so badass!

One thing I would like to see in a future patch that should be pretty easy to do is the ability to organize your 'mechbay. (so i can put the variants of each chasis next to each other!
