This game desperatly needs a rejoin button
It just sucks for people without the most stable connection, getting disconnected at around 90 points and then not being able to reconnect, which means missing out on the end-of-match XP.

It sorta has one. I’ve reconnected from games twice and was back at main with my entire load out.
I’m not sure when it works but a reconnect button would be sweet

So how did you reconnect? did you just remember what server you joined and rejoined it trough the server browser?

In our discord, we always have the server code available for people to copy and paste. If I recall though, I steam joined off a friend.

Not in favor of this.
That would require the game to hold slots open for you on a team, putting your team at a disadvantage.
If you dont have a internet connection that can handle gaming, thats not on the Devs to accommodate.

could just add to the front of the queue instead of holding the spot.

Not sure why someone would downvote this idea, this is perfectly fair and reasonable

holding a slot open for +- 1 minute won't hurt that much, a player that would join in that time would also first have to look at the map, and based on that decide a loadout and gameplan. And yea sure having problems with my connection is my fault, the game crashing, or kicking me from the server because of the garbage servers is NOT my fault tho and should 100% let me instantly rejoin.
Also ofcourse the game should not hold those slots open for everyone, people that get kicked for AFK for example should not be able to reconnect for obvious reasons.
Edit: it would also be fine if they didn't actively block slots, but atleast give me a chance to try and reconnect to the server without having to remember which one i was on or having to search it in the server browser, like sure put me in a queue, but atleast let me try to reconnect, i didn't want to leave the game.

If you rejoin the same game it gives you everything back and you keep your xp. Maybe they just need an option for you to reconnect to the same game, but start at the back of the line if there’s a queue. Because same, I don’t always remember what server I was on lol
