Has anyone encountered game dropping today? MWO is nearly unplayable due to the high ping (I'm getting 360ms+ when I usually get 250 to 300ms). Not only that I kept on disconnecting from the servers mid game. It's kinda frustrating.
Anybody else have this problem? Gonna try to bear it out, but not being able to help my teammates suck big time.

Im in UK and my latency generally stays around 100 to 140ms.
I have just had a disconnect before countdown even started though, no crash report came up on my pc, game closed and went straight to desktop. Another bug i think.

Question for you: were you running in 1080p resolution? Second question: were you running FRAPS? I've been having some issues myself and it started the other day when I switched to 1080p from 720p for recording (rather than streaming). It was CTD after CTD right after I clicked launch and a match was found. I haven't been able to do any testing any further than that but I feel like one of those things is causing crashes to desktop.

Yea, Fraps is a pig for running with MWO in my limited experience with it.
Have been playing with MSI's Afterburner software for a while now. WOrks beautifully and is way more customisable for recording your video.
A 6min 18sec vid (from last night) filmed @ 16:9 720p and 85% quality works out at 1.12gb before its edited.
From there you just (as I'm told, haven't done it myself yet) edit it and compress it as need be for uploading to your youtube or any other site you might use to host it.
Just my 2p worth.

Not yet. But they have dropped every couple hours or so the last two days.

I would say at least 75% of the games this weekend had at least one d/c. It's been rampant.
In b4 "it's beta".

From South East Asia, which explains my latency issues. But before the weekend, even with the lag, I haven't dropped any games.
