I had the following sequence of events:

I selected Assault as the game mode and clicked the Launch button.

A few seconds later I got a disconnect (I can't remember if it said logged out for inactivity or connection to server lost, I think it was the first).

I logged back and prepared another match.

Oddly Assault was already selected - I selected Conquest then Assault again to be sure, then click Launch. Nothing else seemed out of the ordinary.

I got into a match on Alpine just fine. About 2 minutes in (1:44 by the clock) this suddenly popped up:

(Unable to find match dialog and a semi-transparent 16:9 blocking square).


I couldn't use the mouse on the screen, I was still in contol of my mech. I right clicked (fire a single laser) to see if my weapons where still available and they where. Pressing Y opened up a chat dialog but I couldn't type into it. However pressing Enter cleared both the chat and the dialog+cover, returning the match to normal.

Edit: I should note this happened around 9:30pm EST May 20. I note that because when I got into the match one player was already disconnected. Near the end of the match there was a weird lag spike where I couldn't target with R and then suddenly 2 other players disconnected at the same time. Where the PGI servers experiencing connection issues at that time?
