Hi,

Today, both I, and members of my team, have experienced a bug where the mechbay will "freeze" after you hit "save" during a purchase or any kind of loadout change.

Hitting "Options" and changing the settings doesn't help. I have to log out and back into my client to get it working. The gear is bought, but my changes aren't saved.

This is very annoying, needless to say, as changing loadouts can take quite some time.

Happens to me too, except I either "lose" my mech or some other problems happen.

Happened to me too. The only buttons that still work is the "Menu" button and the "Social" Button. As a workaround it helps to hit the menu button and to take a look at the options screen. When you return to the main screen the "Home" button and the "Pilot Lab" buutton will work again.

But it is still annoying, as the changes you made to your mech will be unmade. New equipment will be bought but not available until restart of the game.

Happens to me as well - I think the client is waiting on something from the servers to confirm.

Probably because it's dealing with MC and thus real money they are taking their time on confirming the changes are real.

A small workaround to this is to only do one part of the mech, save, do next part, save, etc etc.

Seems to help a litte.

Still it's ridiculous how often the Mechbay crashes.

The mechlab just sucks. If I was a mech tinkerer or constantly buying mechs, I'd have taken the mechlab behind the shed and shot it...and not quick and painless...I would have done it like Ofr. Murphy on Robocop.

Happens very frequent.

Ooh... we've been having to kill the client, or restart our machines to get it to go away. Very annoying. Thanks for the tip, will try that next time.

I get this from time to time too. I have to quit then restart. Any newly bought items will be in the inventory so I just have to reallocate them to the mech I just changed.

I put a support ticket on this a week ago.

Happens often when I buy new gear, has happened every time i've bought a new mech.

[Cearrdorn]

i've had this happen when buying new gear, so i've taken to stripping and adding gear i already own, saving that config, then going back and buying ONE item i don't own, saving, going back buy the next time, saving. that mostly works. it is my biggest annoyance about this game at present.

[NuggaNooch]

This happens to me almost every time I make adjustments to my Jenner in the mechlab where it includes purchasing new parts. It seem to happen only half the time on my hunchbacks

Mech bay hasn't crashed for me since the latest patch, it did quite often before that however.

[Stingz]

Happens all the time when I buy new gear and try to add it in the same save.

[Tadrith]

Happens to me as well.

[Torvalis]

this happens fairly often to me as well, and sometimes the mech will just disappear from the mechbay altogether when i try to save changes. i have to restart the game at this point, and when i get it back on, any changes i made are gone and it still takes the money for anything i bought but the items are gone.

[EGG]

Yep, twice today.

Buy new stuff, add to old mech, save, stall.

[DogmeatX]

Already reported this but still happening for me and friends, needs a bit higher priority fixing please
