These may have been mentioned already,but..

1)Whenever you invite a player to your team,you see a black bar in the team roster where the players name should be.

2)I am seeing a lot more "City of Heroes has encountered a problem and needs to close" disconnecting messages.

3)Duplication:Let us say you were a team leader,and you could invite Statesman to your team,which you do,and then you could invite Positron..When Positron would take the invite,Statesman's name pops up in the team roster again.It's as though you invited Statesman twice,therby duplicating his name.

CoH is using more and more memory with each Issue release and I've seen the game crash to that screen on several occasions since i16. I'm not going to say it's common, but it's certainly more than I've ever crashed since I built my new system early last year.

Anyway, every time I crash, I notice the game's current usage is just over 1.6gb, so I'm assuming that's right around the game's threshold. Other people have reported the same thing. This only happens to me after several hours of play though.

(Before i16, it was common for my client to run over 1gb, and sometimes close to 1.5gb after several hours. i16 seems to have just pushed it that little bit more over the edge?)

Side note:
The OP's number 1 and number 3 are almost the same problem. The client isn't given the character information for whatever reason and it does one of 2 things.. either shows a blank name in the team window, or shows the same name of the person above it. This is of course corrected once you are in the same zone with those team members.

Rangle & I tested this extensively the other day.

#1 happens when invited to team. The leader's name remains blank until you are in the same zone as the leader.

#3 ONLY happens when leadership is changed while in different zones, and new mish is selected by the new leader.

Another thing that's been happening is that teammate locations are not reflecting correctly (my blaster was listed as being in Nerva!). I had difficulty pinpointing the exact pattern, but it's definitely connected to zoning. We documented our movements via chat and have sent the log to the appropriate red name.

Yes, I have seen this. I logged off a toon from St Martial, and switched to a Hero to join a TF.

Upon logging in and being invited to the team, the Team leader showed as being in St Martial, and half the rest of the team was in Ouroboros.

When I zoned into Atlas Park (for Sewer Trial), EVERYBODY was already in that zone at the contact waiting for me. Nobody was even in Ouroboros, and the leader was certainly and impossibly not in StMartial at any time. lol
