    Yeah after the big engine update I had to completely uninstall, delete stuff, and re-install.

    There's a lot of little tweaks and tips you can try if you're on a less-than-highly optimized system @Valiantheart let me know if you want links.

    Sure links would be great. Maybe i need to do the same. I havent reinstalled stuff in awhile. I did notice my screen and config options were all reset.

    So is it possible to enjoy a game too much? Because after something like a solid month of playing Centurion and enjoying the hell out of it, I got a little (only a little) bored and switched to an Awesome with 2xERLL, 3xMPLAS, 2xSSRM2, and an assload of heatsinks and also have a blast with that. I managed to go an entire match without taking damage and get three kills thanks to good positioning. Great stuff.

    Almost as fun as being puzzled for two matches as to why my SSRMs didn't have ammo after definitely putting on a ton... of standard SRM ammo. Yeah. Turns out they're two different things.

  • TheExAmTheExAm Gerrymandered your districts Registered User regular
    I made that mistake the first time I used SSRMs.

    it's too bad this game is allegedly terrible to play using a joystick.

    edit: or did they finally address that issue?

  • DocshiftyDocshifty Registered User regular
    Isn't current joystick support barebones?

    Plus that one is being made specifically for MWO.



    Also, just saw Liam Neeson make a beta thread complaining that everytime he starts a match and quotes the speech from Taken, people TK him. I found this funny because that was my first reaction when he started doing it when getting matched with him.

    Someone named Shodan was complaining that people were not taking it well that he was calling them insects and being condescending in chat.

    Came up so innocently. We were playing internet robots, and he comes in to Vent and asks if we had ever used an iPhone app called AutoRap.

    I have never been in a game with this guy and part of me feels a little bad because I think teamkilling him is uncalled for but mostly I can't stop laughing.

    Well, it'd be okay

    If it was in one post

    or two

    IF YOU HAVE REPORTED THE ZERO ARMOR BUG, CHECK YOUR E-MAIL

    We need to confirm this:
    Hey everyone, just a heads up. A wipe will be occurring today with the patch being dropped. Below is an email I just received from the devs regarding a ticket I submitted.


    Hello Listless Nomad,
    This is a mass response going out to everyone who as run into the unfortunate zero-armour Mech bug.
    We are releasing a patch today which addresses the root cause of this bug. The patch comes with a wipe as well, so corrupted Mechs will be gone (along with other purchased Mechs)
    On the off chance that this issue comes up again, please don't hesitate to contact us again.
    Thanks!

    Was just reading that thread, he posted a picture of his inbox with the email and a few other people said they have ticket responses that amount to "It will be gone with the wipe today."


    Does that mean open beta wipe or emergency wipe?

  • ToxTox I kill threads he/himRegistered User regular
    It seems like the emails have only been sent to people who submitted tickets reporting the zero armor bug.

    So far, anyway.

  • TheCanManTheCanMan GT: Gasman122009 JerseyRegistered User regular
    I reported it, but haven't gotten the email yet. So I'll remain skeptical until proven wrong.

  • GaslightGaslight Registered User regular
    I am very skeptical. They've made no other mention of a wipe. And if there is a wipe, that obviously affects everybody, not just those who had the no-armor bug. It doesn't make sense for them to only notify those who had the bug (and again, I have not been notified).

  • DocshiftyDocshifty Registered User regular
    The patch notes aren't up yet either. The may have decided to wipe after the second delay yesterday and will notify everyone in the patch notes or a statement when the patch comes out. Or they won't and someone is just trolling while waiting.

    Either way, patch dammit.

  • ToxTox I kill threads he/himRegistered User regular
    If they do wipe, I'm going to just buy enough MC to buy the most expensive 'mech, and a Cat. Sell the Assault for cbills, customize my Cat however I want, and go from there.

    My guess? It's probably the only way they could reliably kill off all of those armorless mechs.
    Hopefully this also means they've finally fixed the errors with the Mech Lab.

    Hopefully.
    I'm not really all that hopeful.

    On an unrelated note, I keep reading the topic title as "Werner Dick Butt" and thinking it's about some obscure German director with an unfortunate name.

    All my C-Bill saving was for nothing. On the bright side my premium bonus only had 3 more days left, and so the
    wipe is a net positive for me.

    I would imagine, if this proves to be true, it would be an emergency wipe.

    If they're really doing a wipe without giving any advance notification except to what appears to be a relatively small and almost randomly selected group of people, they are going to deserve some of the forum rage that ensues.

    Not all, but some.

    Err...who really cares? Is advanced notification going to somehow help you NOT lose your mechs, cbills or XP? If they needed to wipe to knock out completely bugged mechs and ensure everything is working properly...shit happens. Yay Beta.
