I have noticed that since the last patch, whenever you select a different mech, the screen goes dark and it says loading for a second. I think while it is a HUGE improvement when you first log into your client, making it say that every time yous elect a mech is very distracting and annoying. I wouldn't mind having a second to wait and then the mech i selected appears in the mechlab, but a quick flas of loading every time yous elect near anything in the mechlab is a bit annoying.

What does everyone else think about this?

It seems as though this was likely a quick fix to a memory leak that had been found which was preventing the client from releasing memory after a new mech was selected causing an eventual 4FPS bug. There are likely still other leak points, but I am glad that they fixed at least this one for now. Maybe in the future they can remove the loading screen in between selections but for now I can deal.

If it is a fix and not just a design choice, then totally, I'll live with it

If you could make it say loading without the rest of the screen go dark, I agree, It would be a huge improvement. Thanks for commenting Niko, its nice to know the devs are out there, keeping a careful eye!
