In general. More screen lock ups then I can remember. This patch has some good things and some not so good things.

I have noticed that River City is where most of my lock ups/crashes have been happening. There are also a lot of weird bugs I experience in that map. The most recent one was where my control button would not allow me to set up weapon groups after a change. Never happened before.

I am getting a lot of freeze ups where my screen is going through a drop in elevation and firing at the same time.... it's like it either can't compute the issue and locks up or there is just an issue with this patch.

Lots of ingame lock-ups, most fixed by alt-tabbing, some resulting in a full lock up requiring client restart.

• Was any error message provided with the crash, if so, which?

No.

• Where in the game or menus did the crash occur?

Seems to occur most frequently for me in Rivier City, lower city side.

• What steps had been taken prior to the crash occurring?

Starting the match as normal and beginning to move my mech around.

• Does the crash re-occur for you if repeating those same steps?

Occasionally.

• What are your video settings, did you change them since last patch?

Everything "High" at 1920x1080 with Post-AA on, no change since last patch

• What are your System specs?

In the last few days I have been experiencing a new form of crash. it occurs shortly after pressing the Launch button. Screen goes black like normal, and then whammo.. client is gone, game is shut down. It has been happeneing the first match I try to enter and restarting the client usually solves it. if not I have to reboot my PC then start over.

I'll edit my system specs back in here when I get home.

Hey guys, since the patch I have been trying to figure out why the game freezes when I only play a catapult. I have played with all the mechs I own and the game freezes only with the LRM boat. So I teste the theory of graphics and stuff. I lowered graphics and it kept freezing when shooting missles.

Then I made it to fire one set of missles at a time. That seemed to fix the issue when firing them off. I went back to launching all missles at once and it would crash at a random time (From them leaving the missle box and anywhere between that and hitting the target.) Just wanted to pass on the info and the knowledge. This did not happen before the last patch.

I had the game freeze on me at random, pretty often.

Lowered settings -> no freeze yet in a whole evening of gaming.

[PrinnyCanBeHero]

Just froze again, during match start, right when pre-screen disappeared. Just froze, no error message, had to be end tasked. Was in frozen city.

Game has frozen up and crashed 3 times now since this patch today. Each time I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and end task. It shows as the game is Not Responding. I am running an AMD 6950 graphics card. Game was more stable last patch.

Having same problem!

Game frozen after destroying the last leg on an atlas. Sound effect for destroyed legged played, but screen frozen as soon as it happened and had to close from the task manager.

[miscreant]

Lock and CTD on Forest Colony Snow, 2 days in a row. Never crashed before for me.

Yesterday i had another hang (only video, sound was ok) and i could get in the game again with alt + tab.
Does it jumps out of the task?

Videocard seems to be stopping work and after switching between desktop and mwo client it is working again.
Strange. :-)

[Daggett]

In my second game after patching my client freezed while in combat. This never happened in my 1000+ games before the patch played on my old machine in Low-settings.

Was any error message provided with the crash, if so, which?
No error message was shown

Where in the game or menus did the crash occur?
I was in game fighting another mech. Map was Frozen City (best map for a screen freeze )

What steps had been taken prior to the crash occurring?
Nothing special. Got in match, played a few minutes and while brawling the game suddently freezed.

Does the crash re-occur for you if repeating those same steps?
The freeze only happened once so far. I played about 20 games since without freezing.

What are your video settings, did you change them since last patch?
Max details in full HD, no change between patches

What are your System specs?

Well, meanwhile i got a special patch from the support - it did not help. I also did a comlete new installation of the game - it did not help. Still the Client freezes very often.

[Rebel Ace Fryslan]

FREEZE win7:

Freeze screen and sound (grrr grrr)

I believe it happens when i change the zoom, in the middle of the game.
While initialy works fine.

[Wizard Steve]

I'm often getting a lockup (no crashdump). It seems to happen when a mech in my field of view is struck by a salvo of LRMs or SRMs.

I have suffered crashes on Frozen City, Caustic Valley and Forest Colony at least.

Edit: Now not related to LRM/SRM strikes. Just seems to happen at random.

I'm going to delete my shaders folder tonight to see if I crash again....Strange, just a hard lock....then the CTD.

[Colby Boucher]

I just tried to purchase a JR7-F. When I clicked the "buy" button, the session disconnected. The first time I reconnected to the server, my Jenner was there, but there was no engine or weapons. Thankfully, reconnecting again solved the problem, but I have been losing sessions quite often with the new patch.

[Sgt Rali]

Hi, i have a problem while i'm using LRMs since the last patch: The game freezes when I hit an enemy mech with LRMs. I tested it with some of my mechs, it happens with all of them, but not every hit or in every session. I've tried it with/without Artemis and with/without targeting modules. It seems, there is no rule for freezing. Only solution to end the game is using the task manager... Does someone have an idea or the same problem?

[Taron]

The GM Urdson really tried to help me - since 3 days now, but nothing worked. Those freeze issue not even left a crashdump.dmp file back.
We really tried anything: Special patches, completely new installations - dunno what to do now, and i'm close to give up.
Meantime i tried other games, online games, stand alones - only MWO causes that freeze crash.


Well, what ever:
The new features are nice, but the patch itself is a disaster
