Every single match there is at least one person DC when the game starts or someone suicides. The credit grind to get something that I actually want to play is just part of the MWO design, but this makes it way more difficult than it should be.

This seriously needs to be fixed.

At least we'll be able to play 8v8 in a few days, but that won't stop the constant CTD issues. Unless they finally sneak the mystical DX11 in at the same time, since apparently all their bugfixing is going into that build.

Not all disconnects are people DCing. i crashed to desk top three times yesterday, mid game. Fix the link then fix the abuse.

They saw it. And subsequently deleted it. They won't fix the problem until they're forced to.

this just reinforces the fact that this is a problem that many people are seeing. I want to like this game, and on the occasions where the DC's are equal I do have fun; but that is much less frequent than I expect in a game.

Like I said, there is no link because the mods trashed it as soon as they came across it. Discussion about problems = baaaad.

If discussion about problems = bad then all the posts in the forum would be locked. As it is, only posts that finished serving a purpose, name and shame people and etc. are locked. In this case it's someone who was already banned.

Maybe......... Remember when everyone said," Wait a few days for Nov 20th for 8v8"?

I think where Kevin goes wrong is in his statement "it can take as long as 6 hours to grind for an Atlas or Catapult" (paraphrased).

That's not a very long time to spend to get the heaviest 'mech in the game. Only way to make that shorter would be to simply give people an Atlas when they start out.

It wasn't meant to be taken literally. And they already banned an account of his, so his punishment has already happened, his "time has been served" if you will. What reason do they now have of locking/deleting the thread? It was a legitimate discussion.

because suiciding is more fun and rewarding than playing the game half the time.

"Hey, I wrote a simple script to do suicide abusing, interview me!" is not a legitimate discussion.

Well, I suppose the '90%' on their forecast thing still allows them a way out if they screw up again. But oh man that'd be sad.

I had an unfortunate incident yesterday, I loaded into Forrest Colony but found that I ws only getting 3-4 FPS. I tried to ALT+TAB out and back in, but no luck still stuck with unplayable FPS.

While I was trying to fix the low FPS, another player on our team typed this into the chat -
"I ask not for your forgivness"
"Only your understanding"

Then commits suicide...

I know we can't mention names, but his initials were PeeGeeEye. Then another member of our team disconnects, as I am typing in that I will be totally useless in the fight.

The team was esentially down 3 players, in less than the first minute of play. I ended up locking up about 2 minutes in, and had to disconnect.

Suicide farmers need to be banned, PERIOD. Quickly so that they can not profit from this tactic.
