You have to click on the quickplay button, which is shaded out if your current mech selected is the one in game. This will cause a drop down box to show up directly below the qp icon. In it you should see the current match/map that you were dropped from. You have to highlight that match(click on it) and then hit the rejoin button that is at the bottom of the drop down box. Wonky I know, how you rejoin changed last patch. Hope that helps.

Except that was not showing any match to join despite my mechs being in a match.

nobody brought it up yet and i didnt want to be the only one complaining about it, but i dont like the new games in progress popup for 2 reasons:

1: if you left a game after dieing, its an extra click to get a new one.
2: if you get dropped or crash, its an extra click to get back in.

i think i would have just had an auto-rejoin option. if you log in and you have a game in progress (and im still alive, thats important), why not automatically drop me back into that game? after logon skip the news popup, skip the games in progress popup and get back into the match immediately the second it becomes possible.

They changed their setup I was up to a 5 in penalty at one point because I did not know about the new rejoin

Thanks for the info about new rejoin didn't know it had changed, but when we selected new mechs and hit the play button it was like our other mechs had temporarily disappeared as it didn't show any current games when I hit the quick play button then they just reappeared and then gave us the time penalty
