Since wednesday, I'm having the same problem. Sometimes the patcher loads, sometimes it doesn't. Very rarely I can actually log in, but then it crashes as soon as the mechbay is loaded (Windows reports it as `Not responding'). For me, the problems started wednesday, and I think Windows had an automatic update shortly before it started, so I don't know if the mini-patch was the problem or the Windows update.

Same problem here. PGI, do you think you are able - at least at SOME TIME IN FUTURE - to provide a stable game client, or are yiu too dumb for that? Instead of improving your game, with every patch you introduce new bugs. This is the worst gaming experience (in terms of stability) ever.

So, for two weeks now I haven't had an ingame crash during a match like I described in the beginning of the thread by doing this.

Clearing shader cache
Turning off VSync
Running in Full Window rather than FullScreen.

Sometimes, the endgame crash happens (when you try to quit the match but then you get a blank screen), but since I'm in full window I can just task manager out of the game. I'm not too worried about this since it's after the match.

It's odd, but I'm curious if this helps anyone else.

Windows 8 BTW

Since last patch I have been experiencing hangs. Game just goes unresponsive and I have to use taskmanager to kill it. Win7 64bit, Geforce 680 with latest drivers.

[F lan Ker]

S!

So far no crashes in 2 days after limited my FPS to 55 and have VSync on. Might try with it Off to see if it has any effect.

[Penance]

game freezes and crashed quite a bit for me. thankfully, it seems as though we are still credited for that particular match if we have to restart the client.

[Qarnage]

Still constantly freezing every match or two. Caused by some kind of explosions/effects especially by missiles, zoom state or thermal vision. Happen every match I use a mech with 2x LRM-15 or more.

</p>this also happens to me
and some in-game image freeze, the game works but the image is frozen, sometimes it resumes working after alt-tab (and i find myself out-of-boundary ), sometimes not.
after black-screens, the windows reports following error :

The game randomly locks, unrecoverable except with hard reset. Purely randam, sometimes while I am shooting, other times just out of the blue mid match. 1/10 matches, but now that I have latency issues since the new patch I get about 6/10 matches which are playable.
System:
32-bit windows, Intel i7 920
ATI Radeon HD 4800 Series vid card

[tehgraarg]

I haven't been able to play the game for 5 days now. Every drop the game will exit back to the client. I'm very sad face.

Same issues. Tried reinstalling , FPS fix, v-sync, install on HDD partition, install on SSD partition, update all drivers, downgrade drivers, turn off all advanced settings in nvidia control panel.

I hope there is patch next week to address the problem. Omnicrom logs always complain about missing compressed textures and runaway threads.

[Hekalite]

Stability of this patch is much improved from my previous experience (I hadn't played since mid-december). I have only had a few hard locks in game which I can't really reproduce.

I'm running everything on very high and it seemed that the lockup was more common before I turned off AA in game, but it has still locked up a couple times with AA off.

System specs:
Core i7 2600k
GTX670
8Gigs ram
Win7

I can provide a full dxdiag if necessary.

I personally have noticed that since the latest Win7 patch that I have started getting issues with Textures (Especially snow textures) either appearing incorrectly or not at all. This has created a crash for me so far. It doesn't happen every time, but the textures issue has come up multiple times in the past 24 hours.

Same for me, on snowy maps the textures of the buildings or dropships are missing and in light grey.
Game crashes regularly, one time the game crashed while in spectator mode.
Maybe it has to do with lock on targets, as far as I remember I always targeted an enemy just
some secs before crash.

[The Verge]

Not a crash, but just what can happen to anyone.



BTW, this error sucks.

What I want to know is how this happens.
Thanks, and keep up the work developers.

[Deathlike]

TBH, I think it's been getting worse. As more improvements are being added (revised mechlab and revised in-game scoreboards), the memory leaks/corruption continues to increase. It's not getting that much better I fear.

[Nave Olswin]

Was any error message provided with the crash, if so, which?
Consistently no error message or the like, just crashes to the desktop

Where in the game or menus did the crash occur?
Anytime i select a mech, be it in the mechbay or from the quick launch , i also cannot select a mech (blue outline) and the 'launch' button is orange and unpressable. also, mechbay graphics consist of a bunch of grey balls

What steps had been taken prior to the crash occurring?
nothing, i installed the game and got this series of problems from the get go

Does the crash re-occur for you if repeating those same steps?
Every single time i press a mech it crashes

What are your video settings, did you change them since last patch?
I haven't done anything to customize my graphics setting, either in client or to the GPU itself

What are your System specs?

MOBO : ASUS P8 Z77-V LX
GPU : Asus GTX 560Ti
RAM : 8GB Corsair 'Vengeance' (2x 4GB chips)
CPU : Intel core i7 2600k
OS : Windows 7 Home premium 64bit

This is making it impossible to play and i have yet to get any sort of response from support
any ideas? my drivers are up to date, i have DirectX 9.0c installed and i have never overclocked or changed other system setting like that

[Gettothechoppa]

Game is crashing periodically, locks up and i'm forced to shut it down manually.
Another issue: My targeting data such as relevant information on who's hostile and who's friendly (stuff you really need to know in an intense fire fight) disappears. I see friendlies if i look down at the map but my targeting reticle and FOF info on the HUD is gone sometimes. spamming Q seems to sort of fix it.

Cheers!
