Yes i understood, i was saying because he also wrote ‘disconnection’ so i thought he couldn’t reconnect when losing connection as well.
Most frustating and annoying thing in aoe3 game have always been not been able to reconnect after a disconnect . I have played 1000+ game in aoe3 tad , and so many times if ur router reset or due to any reason if ur net disconnect or game crash then it’s just end of game u can’t rejoin . Specially problematic in team game when there was a disconnect of a player . I stopped playing team games becoz it’s just so unpleasant if a player from either team disconnect
There should be option to pause game and allow a player to rejoin likeany other game . disconnect just ruin good % of games on aoe3 tad . Did they do anything to fix it in de ? .
Reconnect allow time should be 4-5 min or just allow player to pause game to wait for a player .
yeah the same problem in aoe2 game as well, they should allow rejoining atleast a few minutes after you drop out from a game.
they do allow it in aoe2de
Nope you cannot.
I think the devs are aware of this need as it was mentioned in previous betas, but I also understand it may not be a particularly straightforward feature to implement retroactively.
My expectation is set more to the tune of: yes it must get done, but I understand if it doesn’t happen immediately.
I’ve been playing with a friend for 40 minutes on ranked and the game just disconnected. My internet was fine. Everything else was working on but the game still kicked me out. Please add this feature !
yes, I simply wont play ranked till it is implemented.
I think this is the most needed part for the AOE. Adding this option will almost remove the effect of the game crashing or disconnecting, which is good for the developers and players. No question that you need to work on this ASAP.
My internet just died for about not even 1 minute. I was dropped from the game… Made me furious.
Damn, there really needs to be a reconnect button.
yes i hate this, always ha´ppen still nowaways, nobody knows why, internet conection is good always on my mates or enemy players
It’s not as easy to add reconnection to matches as you think, in fact go and listen to frost giant developers talk about it, even adding it to sc2 was really difficult, doing it for AOE 3 would require an insane amount of work, probably tons of engine changes as well.
The “attempting to reconnect” feature however might be possible, but that one is more than often not enough time to reconnect when your internet goes away.
There is also another major issue !! previously the game stopped for all players and the timer starts.
But now the, the game only stops for the one , who is reconnecting , rest of the players don’t even know that their mate is reconnecting.
Had my first Ranked Game on my life yesterday, I won the game like in the last 15 min, but the other play did not surrender, so far so good, then in the process of cleaning all the enemy’s structure I got a crash and LOST THE GAME… Seriously?! Please add this functionality!
So, finally, looks like developers are listening to us, and are considering to add the reconnect feature, it will be good, and it is a priority now.
It is written in the latest update:
“We have heard your requests for a reconnect feature and the team is looking into this option. We do not have a timeline for this feature, but it is a priority for the team.”
I was actually surprised to see that, given the likely great complexity of such feature.
Of course, if they do manage to implement this, I would welcome it
that will be aswesome.
imagine treaty game when u did 40 min of boom and when the fight is about to start someone in ur team dc , u jus loss all the fun part . not to mentaion u will register loss in ue strats .
I too absolutley hope for the option to rejoin. However I think this was excluded from the beginning of the DE development, as far as I can remember.
I’m still waiting for this feature since its tough to play long games with friends without it. After an error related drop 30 mins in, we would rather just play different game.
Bump on this! Definitely needed!
