With an lrm boat you can not do anything but die and wait until the match might end. < 15:00 min to re-enter new matches with that mech. Very poor customer experience. Makes the game a 1 out of 5 star.

Are you sure it's related to your weapons loadout? That doesn't seem very likely, it seems to me like it is a local issue, but then again, what would I know?

It doesn't have to be an LRM boat; just earlier I had no HUD in my Cataphract 4X, still managed ~350 damage just sticking close to a phranken Atlas (stood out and was friendly) and leading my ACs like normal. Still sucked that I'd have to watch the mechs fight or shoot me to figure out who I could fire upon.

I've got one a few times today where that few seconds of orange white noise gets stuck on the screen and the match starts and I can't see **** and I have to kill the client cause I can't even quit the match.

15 minutes before you can enter a new match? And why are you creating a new mech for each match? I'm confused. Yes the HUD bug happens, ive had it happen a couple of times, but not quite as often as you are describing. And it usually only happens for that match then goes away for the next. I've only needed to relog once or twice to fix it. It's a known issue and is being looked into with the myriad of other bugs.

you're an lrm boat, you sit back and click the mouse over and over. you don't GET to whine about the game.

No HUD is annoying but I'm pretty sure you still get the lock on and even the audio effects of the lock on. So you can still fire, though you will most likely need line of sight on the enemy to hit consistently.
