Multiplayer Slots Disappearing

[Thr0tt]

Yup I noticed this too and its the only real frustrating thing for me.

Had a look around the forum and it doesn't appear that this is a repost. Additionally I'm sure that you've already found this bug because it's very blatant.

In games that are designed to be JIP and have base respawn etc, it appears that if someone dies and disconnects (or even just disconnects) their slot will completely disappear and will be unjoinable. This is in both player made missions and BIS's own warfare 2 maps. This results in a game ending up as 11v4 or some silly number, with no-one able to balance up the teams because the slots have been eaten.

I'm sure if you join any server running these modes you'll witness the bug for yourself.

Yes and the most irritating thing is that it's like herding cats trying to get the dwindling players to vote a restart....

Actually, perhaps the voting is then bugged because there aren't enough players to fulfil the vote requirements? Not sure about that.

+1 this really needs fixing

Seems to occur when you connect/reconnect and PERHAPS bandwidth related were too low bandwidth chokes it? or something there about.

I found the game to take TOO long to connect and join into lobby, whats it waiting for? I suspect its getting player information but why it takes so long I'm unsure.

Oh god this is such an irritating bug.

Needs fix ASAP!

Also: in warfare if I join a plain soldier slot(not team leader slot) I have zero money, even after I receive $$ from salvaging, i cant buy units but I can buy any weapon I want without money restrictions. If I join a team leader slot, all is OK.

This kills many multiplayer games. Join any random CTI (which, by the way, is also broken) or C&H or whichever, and you'll probably find it's 10 vs 3 or something silly.
