Just had an odd game. I was in the open (no mech blocking, no terrain problem), both legs okay, full throttle, but couldn't move. Anyone else had this?

I've gotten my Catapult stuck in all kinds of places. Were you stuck at the spawn or elsewhere on the map? Did you take a screenshot?

I've occasionally got stuck on odd bits of the maps. I once got my Awesome stuck on the pipes in the factory complex on Caustic and there are some grills over the underpass in the spaceport on River City that can trap mechs.

EDIT - not had it happen in open space, though.

Yep, I get stuck all the time. Usually, I'm piloting a Centurion (in which case I live), or a light (in which case I die).

With a ping of 270, you get stuck more.

On occasions this has happened top some of my team mates. They literally become mired in the scenery. Sometimes up to their waste!

You were stuck. Doesn't happen much now due to fixes on maps, but it used to happen a lot.

In closed beta I got my founder Cat stuck halfway down some pipeworks on Caustic by misjudging a jump-jet landing. Managed a kill anyway and was last man standing. The other side were good sports about it and went to cap (which was blocked from my line of fire) while taunting me greatly.

Other than that, I can't say I've gotten stuck anywhere, and certainly not in the open.

My jenner got stuck like this in front of a streakcat. I was able to stay alive and make it out because of smart torso twisting, but not without losing all my outer armor and getting orange/red on every single point of my mech. Was not a fun game, at all.

edit: jump jets got me out after a bit.

Occasionally if you power down and back up you might get free.

When you get stuck like this hit F9 and write down the coordinates (they appear in the upper left corner of your screen under FPS) then send it to support.

Had an issue where my Mech powered down/overheated but the visual overlays and HUD were all on like during nominal operations. I was confused for quite a while wondering why I couldn't move my Mech at all.

Since the last patch, the amount of UI-based bugs has increased threefold for me.

I've had it happen a few times on River City, otherwise it seems pretty rare.

I've embedded a Jenner into the side of the glacier on Frozen City. I've impaled and stuck my Cataphract 3D on one of the little spikes on the citadel in the middle of River City... twice in a row.

heres my version of stuck, i dodge a streak kitty and something with guass by going in the tunnel in forest colony, and i hear ballistics somewhere. so i trudge forward, knowing theyre behind me. then i run into a cataphract that just rapes my face until what was behind me catches up. last time i do that.

seriously though, ive been stuck in some odd places, thank god i was always able to get out with jump jets.

I've usually become stuck because of jump jets ;)

I get stuck:

on rocks in the water in revamped Forest.
on rocks near the water in Forest Snow
on various crap all over the ground in Caustic near the factory
when jumping onto the mech gantry in capture area with say, a Cataphract...this leads to no accel at all, and jump jets refuse to recharge as well
on certain new building additions to Frozen/Night, both maps.

While not cool at all, it's nothing but par for the course in this game...and not odd.
Odd would be when it happens to one guy, maybe once in a blue moon.
These are bugs, and those are anything but odd around here.

next time it happens, note the location and report it

They are looking for those locations.
