No F__cking Reconnect system ?!?!?!

[Lorenzo]

its 2021 and this game doesnt have a reconnect system for ranked or normal matched and this is so frustrating ...

Since when does reconnect ever work? Rarely
Since when is reconnect worth it? Almost never; 30 seconds of idle time is a death sentence.

You guys are so sad, its unbelievable. The man is simply saying add a reconnect system like every other game. I just hate these kinds of people with these foolish answers. The thread has a valid point

We're talking about a game that takes 45 min or so play, often more, and that's in addition to the matchmaking time. Losing connection ends the game and wastes a tremendous amount of time. Reconnect systems are a standard part of competitive multiplayer games across many genres. It's not a new idea or something revolutionary or controversial. It's a mainstay function that's necessary to provide a robust online experience in the real world where network connections are not perfect.

Yes, ultimately, there is an onus on the player to get their hardware up to spec and troubleshoot their internet connection. But that only goes so far. Wireless routers can have intermittent lag spikes. The networks themselves can face momentary lag spikes. We play games with people from all over the world. Weather can affect performance. There are lots of variables and most companies understand they need to design a system that's robust enough to accommodate if they're going to offer a multiplayer service.

I don't play AOE3 multiplayer, but it's frankly astounding that they don't have a reconnect algorithm for multiplayer.

These types of people just want to be the focus of nothing else.
There will be more and more stupidity in the future

Recoonect system is An important and necessary feature in multiplayer game.
for a game like AOE3 that evey match may take up to 40+ ( spectially in team game )
its necessary.

but its may not so important for casual or noob players like you...

A reconnect system is much needed, especially since you've been playing for a couple of hours in a treaty match and then suddenly one of your allies crashes. It's really annoying and frustrating to lose so much time just because reconnecting isn't a viable option. I really hope that a reconnection system will be added eventually.

Don't count on it, basic features are still not implemented in DE. Like being able to see who is in game, which we used to be able to do.
