I just downloaded the latest patch today and guess what?
The game is unplayable. UNPLAYABLE!


Now I'm not one of the usual forum whiners and QQers. I don't post very often and when I do it is typically rational and constructive. However, today I am super angry at this game. So Fing angry.

Problems in no particular order:

My framerate is down by 50% on a brand new graphics card

The biggest problem is my controls don't work! I can move around and shoot. But only with the first mouse button. My 2nd mouse button doesn't work. The worst is I can't lock with 'R' and my actions are delayed in chat and on the battlefield.

In several matchs I am completely unable to damage other mechs and they were unable to see me or damage me. In one game I was the last one left on my team and all my teammates on spectate are seeing my mech spazing out and asking me if Im ******** or just trolling them.

I get hit and have no indication that im getting hit and show no damage until im dead. That is when im able to get hit and damaged which is random at best.

LAG! All over the place.

I dont understand how one patch could screw the game up so bad and why no one else is reporting similar.

And i have tested my mouse and keyboard in browser and in Borderlands (another game) to make sure its not my equipment. Its not.

I and super angry right now and am trying to be as calm and rational as possible but my experience is totally destroyed right now! Unplayable!

The only thing I can think to do is to re-Install and i bet that is not gonna work. If that is the case im probably not going to reinstall a second time.

I hate to break it to you, but the rest of us are playing fine.

The problem is on your end I'm afraid, I'd advise you to post in the tech support forums instead of ranting here OP.

I've got to assume you've submitted a t/t. Based on what you wrote here, they'd be interested in your system specs.

I tought same a time ago...Don't bet,just do it,you may be suprised.
If that won't help my predecessors advised you already - contact MWO support directly,GMs are really helpful and always respond.

When the patch came my patcher stopped showing up. it would launch disappear and I could not launch again. So i re-installed now i'm playing the game thinking im doing ok then i find out that my mech is running into a wall on the other side of the map. Guess its our turn in the bug barrel.

Make sure that you manually run the game as an Administrator, and that MWO is on all of your firewall/antivirus exception lists.

I am getting the exact same symptoms as ViKing. I am running an AMD 8 core 4.3 ghz and 2 GTX 660 in SLI mode. Internet is fine on all other PCs on my home network. As a test I turned everything off except my PC and still the problem persists.

I would suggest to ViKing to wait until the next mini patch. I don't think it will be playible till then.

There are other threads complaining of the same thing. There are quite a few people who are having this problem. I have also started having this problem today.

It's not the patch, it's a server-side issue. Rubber-banding, delayed server-side commands (vision modes, targeting, etc.) - it happened on Monday, too.
