@DocFrazier: I doubt you'll be seeing a Mad Cat anytime soon, but they /are/ planning a clan invasion eventually, so I'd bet donuts to holes you'll get your chance.
Hours of attempts and I was never able to get this installed at home. Pretty darn frustrating.
I'm going to google around some more, but I've already had a really difficult time finding any solutions. I've done the whole erase/reinstall, updated DX/C++/.net, tried a different install location, no change. I get through all the patches, then when there is 7 patches left, the installer crashes. I presume patch 7 is the bugged one everyone was talking about earlier.
This seems like a wide problem with no solutions. Most people are having the issues while updating the game - I can't even get it installed.
Maybe disable AV realtime on the installer and and other game locations? I did eventually get past it after restarting patcher multiple times. It blows and is a terrible experience.

I'm sorry y'all are having to deal with that I do have an idea, though. I'll shoot you a message
So its gone Open Beta and we haven't played in a week or two as a group, anyone interested in running say tomorrow?
Unfortunately teams are still limited at 4 so I guess it's whoever's able to make it at 10pm EST 7 PST

Sounds awesome. Anyone who's interested, if you've not been on with us yet, just search for Dargon's Draught in the C3 channel search thinger and come on in. Though some sub-channels are Members Only (again. if you wanna join up, PM me), the main channel and a couple of the sub-channels are public. Use literacy, I made descriptions (and I think they show up somewhere useful, but I could be wrong...).
I've been playing more... Still an Atlas DC with dual Ultra AC5 and three streaks... if I get face to face, nothing but solid rockin. Almost no one can aim or move fast enough to get out of my way... oh, and I move at 55 MPH.
I'll be on... drop me a line here and I'll make sure I'm online.
Yeah, I can't play it while home for the Holiday, but Ilriyas, Basil, Midga and I have been having fun on random nights rolling around in mechs. Definitely look to join us in January!

How are you finding the streaks now that ECM is implemented? Been considering running regular SRM4/6's due to the swarms of ECM 'mandos and ravens messing up my lock.
Edit: Might need to make it to 8 players for matchmaking with more than 4, not sure how that's gonna be come January.
Add me too.. I'm rootwyrm on there as well. Haven't been playing as much lately.

Sorry, been out for a while traveling and such. Yes, totally still playing. The shit they've been doing with grouping, though, made me sorta drop for a while (not being able to play more than 4 was annoying, and now being able to play 1, 2, 3, 4, or 8 people is just silly). I'm hoping they fix it soon. We've also mostly stopped using C3 and just using Skype instead. If you Skype, add midga59 and it will make it easiest for making play happen.
New game mode is pretty awesome, and cockpit items are taking all my founder cash... Thing to note, though: as far as I can tell, they don't save in an inventory or anything. It seems you pay to put it in there, in the one mech, and if you replace it with something else it's gone. If anyone knows this to be different, let me know.
Electronic warfare has made things really interesting. It's even more imperative to actually teamwork it up now. Can't wait for them to un-fux the grouping stuff...

I am finally back home in CA though, so if I don't get in tonight, I will be back to a regular gaming schedule now.
Give me to January and there will be Jenner.
