MechWarrior Online – 17 September 2022 Patch Notes | New Platinum Collection Unveiled!

Introduction

Get ready to upgrade your 'Mech collection with the new Platinum Collection 07 in Mechwarrior! This month, players can look forward to not one, but two exciting collections packed with powerful 'Mechs. In the Inner Sphere Collection 07, you'll find the Raven RVN-2X(P), Blackjack BJ-3(P), Thanatos TNS-5S(P), and Fafnir FNR-5B(P), each with a Platinum Pattern Unlock that can be used across all variants of these 'Mechs. But that's not all! The Clan Collection 07 brings even more firepower to the battlefield with the Piranha PIR-2(P), Ice Ferret IFR-P(P), Ebon Jaguar EBJ-A(P), and Blood Asp BAS-B(P). Just like the Inner Sphere Collection, these 'Mechs also come with a Platinum Pattern Unlock that can be applied to any variant of the respective 'Mech. Whether you're a fan of the Inner Sphere or the Clan factions, there's something for everyone in this latest patch. So gear up, pilot, and get ready to dominate the battlefield with these new additions to your 'Mech arsenal.

Patch Files (Direct Download)
To make the patching process easier for players with limited download caps, we'll be providing direct download links for the patch file(s) that comprise this patch. This will allow you to download the patch file(s) elsewhere, for manual injection into the MWO patcher through a Patch Cache folder. Aside from allowing you to download the patch file(s) elsewhere, on another connection, there are no additional benefits to performing the patch this way; the patching process itself will be the same. This direct patch download process will only work for players running the standalone client. It does not apply to players running MWO through Steam.
  • Download the above file(s)
  • For sake of ease, we recommend creating a dedicated folder for the patch file(s), such as 'MWO Patch Cache'
  • You do not need to unzip or unpack the patch file(s)
  • Launch the MWO Portal
  • Select the three horizontal lines in the top left of the Portal Window
  • Choose the 'Specify Patch File Cache' option
  • In the field that appears, paste or enter the location in which you saved the patch file(s) and hit OK
  • For example, C:\Users\<username>\Documents\MWO Patch Cache
  • Click the blue Patch button
  • The launcher will now check the Patch Cache folder you defined. If it locates the required patch files, it will unpack and use those files to apply the patch.
  • Once the patch is complete, launch the game
