Good job on this patch Dev. team! I'm enjoying it a lot, and there is a ton of new content to play with. It might even keep people busy tinkering with new builds, until the new maps come out, instead of complaining

[EnigmaNL]

Haven't had the chance to play yet but so far I heard double heat sinks don't work? Would be a shame, i've been waiting for them for a long time!

Also I'm not sure but will the MC spent during this phase of the beta be given back later?

• Running into another Mech will no longer knock it down.

Great patch and the new menu interface is perfect, still waiting for a proper heads up display for targeting and navigation and intergration of map and damage indicators into the Mech cockpit.

Knocking down mechs is a must. I look forword to seeing that back in game......

1) DHS arent a bug, unless you want to be more specific.
2) It appears to be intentional from reading the patch notes, a "refit" cost

not sure on other stuff. sounds not good.

DHS dont work as they should. This is the bug right now. It does not change at all when switching between SHS and DHS.

I used a jenner with 12 SHS. after this i switched them to DHS. The heat was exact the same as it was earlier. The double dont work right now as it should.

I need to do more tests to find out a bit more.

The higher prices are painful during repair/reload. If I can easily rack up a -80,000 without ever using DHS,Endo/Ferro,XL, and coming out alive and victorious. I sure don't feel too victorious when even my cheapo mech's repair bills cut my winnings in HALF! I can only shudder and imagine what anyone using the new tech or XL engines must be going through right now.

[cmopatrick]

overall, nice patch.

i agree with the large number of folks who are very concerned about returning some amount of knockdown (and i pilot mostly lights). right now, uber jenny pilots are deadly and drops with 4 or more lights are becoming common.

i also think the dhs are not working right or need a bit more explanation of what you are thinking alone the lines of how they work. they do seem to help some at times, but not as much as expected.

Will there be a more wipes ? (will be a mc, premium time and earned cb given back?)

Could you please clarify whether there will still be another reset?

Daemian, on 25 October 2012 - 08:21 PM, said:

Can we get a confirmation that all MC will be reset again once the game goes open beta?

I'm nervous about spending any right now.

I don't know if this has actually been answered by the devs. I have seen other players answer it, but until a dev says something it is just speculation. Is this the final reset of MC and such? I know that they said that the last reset would the only one until Open Beta. So is this the reset for Open or is this just another reset? I want to know for sure, before I start playing as if there is another reset I will spend my MC more freely for testing, however if this is the last reset and everything is live from here on out I would make different decisions.

Yes, there will be more resets. There will be at least one final reset for sure when closed beta end and the open beta start. And this will be a final and full reset.
Devs said this already endless times. It was posted and said more than once. Spend all your current MC on stuff to try around. You will get them back.

I have lost all my mechs an everything in my inventory. It seems my status go reset to the time I bought the founders pack. Is this suppouse to happen? Also no DX11 and performance seems the same or worst. Do I need to configure something or delete some files?

LOL . Lost all my mechs but i got 27,600,000+ CB instead at least . Thanks! Now I can build proper mech without playing hundreds of matches

BunnyHunter, on 26 October 2012 - 12:59 AM, said:

hmm, after the patch my mechs are gone.
There are no no owned mechs anymore.
Why?

It is funny to see how many are NOT reading the patch notes.
But even for you again the notes you might find interessting:

WHERE IS MY PROMISED MAP PGI?!?

I AM DISAPOINT IN YOU

WHY ONLY REFUND 75% OF CBILLS? YOU BETTER REFUND ALL IF YOU EVER DO WIPES PASS CLOSED BETA

One more who cant read patch notes and using cabs to show his own stupidity.
We are not pass the closed beta. This is still closed beta, so you should come down and first think what you post. And guess what, there will be at least another reset.

But yes, the announced map was missing. But still no reason to get loud.

It looks like Frosted's comment on full CBILL-refunds is pertaining to later, when the game is in OB. .."you better refund all IF you ever do wipes PAST CLOSED BETA."

That's how it reads to me, anyway.

Actually... when they released the LAST patch... they said there would be no more resets UNTIL Open Beta... unless something goes horribly wrong... I presume then that something went horribly wrong

Why? This pushes light mechs even more because now the keep close behind the heavy mech and habe to fear nothing!

Knocking down was cool, realistic and helpful so why did you remove it?

Something along the lines of:

"You will only fall down half as often." would have been appreciated, but to remove it!??
I really hope this is temporary!!!

THIS is what I was confused about.. They said last patch that there would only be ONE more reset. What I want to know is if this is it or if something did go "horribly wrong?" That is all I am asking... I realize that this is still Closed Beta. But they did say last time that only one reset would happen after the last. I am hesitant to spend my MC until I know if this is the final reset or if this is a reset that was unscheduled.

So if the Devs have answered this question about THIS patch then please post a link to that answer.

[ThunderHart]

Hi great new stuff to play with thanks for the update.

[ElliottHD]

I love reading the comments on patch notes! It's an exercise in patience.

[Khai Bobe]

I can't believe people are griping because they gave us most of our money back...and not just what we had but all we had earned since last wipe? Come on people.....seriously.

[Cochise]

Love the patch. I like the hit detection tweak. Good stuff! Keep'em coming!

[DrVulcan]

Happy patchmas!!
Thank you devs for your continued work and efforts

Cent ah/d makes sence after you explained it devs, np.
Several new bugs ill report via tickets (undead mechs, stuck locations now that cant fall, etc)
Engine internal heatsync thing is too confusing for avg gamer when goes live imo, youll need to fix this
Refund rate for ff to std and endo to std should be free even if have to buy to upgrade again imo.

Overal best thing i have ever tested.

What about resets?
From now until Open Beta, we no longer plan to reset MWO. That being said, if something goes spectacularly wrong, we may need to hit the reset button again.

From the patch at Sept. 18th? Well, at that time they planed to do the open beta on Oct. 16th .

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! I am so glad that my Commando will no longer be bowled over. It was no fun and added nothing to the game. Please do NOT listen to anyone who says it should be brought back.

The other fixes sound great and the new interface is looking sweet. Questions, when is open beta? And when will we be getting a new game mode? Sorry, had to ask, but I am really glad with this patch so keep up the great work.

It's going to be brought back. This game is meant to be a bit of a sim, and when two 20+ ton metal vehicles slam into each other, bad things happen.

Collisions NEED to be in game.

I'm OK with this as a temp fix (well, not really, but I understand) but they need to come back.

[Superusa Manus]

I understand that BAP and ECM arent ready yet,however why remove the "Place Holder" for them? It helps me plan my Ravens better.

I believe what they said was there would be no more wipes AFTER open beta. After Open Beta goes live, we're playing with what we've got.
