does this work for anybody? i got booted and hit rejoin and i can't even begin to describe what happened. other players have said they didn't get back in either. another fine game feature from your pgi team. does any body test this sh@t before we put in in game? apparently not.

Can't even log back in and get the game to work for about twenty minutes after a crash now.

I gets stuck on an infinite loading loop, or throws an unknown error.

Match reconnect works 40% of the time 100% of the time.

Reconnecting to the game is like playing the lottery. It is more fun thinking and wishing it will work than in practice.

I only got to try it once when the client dropped me to the desktop mid-match (with no error messages). That one time I clicked "Rejoin" it launched me to the searcher and put me in a new match. I suspect the server crashed that time.

I've seen a few people reconnect, but very rarely. Most often people never arrive or disconnect at the beginning and we never see them again.

I wonder if the 2 minute time limit needs to be longer.

lol, lagging out disconnecting, the client closing itself, sometimes not being able to rejoin.

It worked for me the one time I tried it ... though by that point I had been blown up already so I logged into an exploding mech. :)

I consistently crash on Terra Therma and Alpine Peaks 8 out of every 10 matches nowadays since a recent patch. Rejoining usually works for me at about the same rate.

1 out of about 5 successful rejoins now, I'll have no HUD whatsoever (like when you use Right Shift F11) until I die and go to spectator mode.

it's doing wonder for my kill death ratio, which wasn' t special to begin with.
I'd say it is wher we want it to be, please don' t nerf any further!

It works for me sometimes as well. Other times it kicks me back into the mechlab even if I attempt it a number of times.

At first I thought maybe because I was dead already but I've seen it where I'm not dead.
