Dear Community,

I downloaded MWO the day open beta was publicly released. Since then, i experienced a fun game.
Against all odds, the 8v8 Assault on 4 Maps never started to bore me. And this probably because I can almost never play this game.

Never in my life before have I met such a bug infested game. Well, usually I do not buy a game, which is not programmed correctly, but the case is different with MWO.

First and last, i am very, very fond of battletech. And on top, there is nothing to buy, except for MCs, HeroMechs and Premium Time, which I will not buy, because I can not play this game.

Frustration speaks of me, you might hear it. And please, do not point out "it is still a Beta". I know that. But a Beta should RUN. This beta does not. In terms of bugginess, its an alpha. I have no problems with bad balancing or the lack of content, because it will be adjusted and added in time. But regarding the bugs, nothing happens.

I do not even speak about the small, funny bugs like the cockpit blur after missile death.
I am speaking of FRead Error, which makes the game unable to start or md5 hash mismatch, which makes the game unable to reinstall.

So far, I have spent more time trying to fix the bugs myself or trying to find solutions in the forum than actual playing. This makes me sad, because I would even spend money or join a team, given a playable game.

Well, I think you got the point. Nonetheless, here is a small list of bugs I encountered

- Mechlab crash without error notice
- Fread
- Md5 hash mismatch
- Memory Allocation
- Sentinel error (crashed the patcher)
- Cockpit Blur
- Frozen City Night Graphics Bug

Well, ok, the biggest problem is and stays the Fread Error.

Help me :D !

The FREAD error seems to have something to do with the patcher, check out this thread (thx search function): http://mwomercs.com/...in-fread-error/

Sorry you are having so much trouble. Have you tried re-installing? The only bug I have experienced on your list is the blurry cockpit while in spectator mode....and I think the last patch fixed that.

Other than that I sometimes will get the yellow screen and Fps bug...but not very often.

Well, I reinstalled for about...5 times now.
The first time, I could play for about 3 days without any trouble. Blessed be the maker :D

Right now, I am exchanging .pak files again, because it seems to be impossible to play today ...
