The "QUICK PLAY" button does not change to a "REJOIN" button. It behaves properly (you can rejoin a game if you click it) but it does not display the proper text.

Yeah this is bad design especially since status updates on the mech selection screen don't work properly.

Completely agree with the previous posts. Removing the Rejoin button equals removing helpful information for the players - so please bring it back with a hotfix or the next patch.

Yea, agreed. Not sure whether this was intentional or an oversight, but I'm leaning on the latter. It's rather embarrassing in either case...

Agreed. I thought the ability was just plain removed until I tried "Quick Play" on a whim.

Yeah, that's pretty screwed up. New players are going to assume they can't rejoin. Please fix ASAP. Really don't want the steam launch to have this issue. People are going to complain they got disconnected and couldn't rejoin.

Yep. Now I don't know if a mech is free or not. This is terrible UI design and needs to be fixed ASAP

Yeah, what is this ****? Do you even look at your own game before clicking 'save'? How does this even get wrecked in the first place?

Yup I can confirm. Btw also remove that annoying announcement screen when you are going to rejoin.... Being kicked out of a match is frustrated enough. Every less click is a win for me.

What annoys me most about the announcement screen is that it seems to show sales all the time but not events. Events tend to get buried on the patcher, too, but at least you can see there is one if you look to the right. Knowing an event is going on is a cue to play more. These days I usually find out about an event because someone mentions it ingame, anymore. To me this means the popup is leading to less information rather than more.

As for rejoins, it takes long enough to reload the game on crashes without that announcement - it can mean life and death, really. Being able to click the button behind the announcement would at least be a compromise worth thinking about.
