Unnoticed disconnects
It sometimes happens that the game doesn't notice a disconnect. I ignored this fact up until now, since it happened very rarely (various people had that, I had it a few times as well) and a quick rehost wasn't a problem. Now though, I had 2 unnoticed disconnects in one game, and combined with the fact that it was the first game since I got my modem replaced by my ISP's technician (because of an unrelated problem), I fear this might start occuring for me more often...
What do I mean by an unnoticed disconnect? Well, the game shows "waiting for player X" to me, but I can't type anything in the chat (whatever I type and press Enter, it doesn't appear). My connection gets fixed few seconds later but nothing happens, the game simply refuses to notice that my connection had dropped for a while. Therefore, I can't even reconnect, which means a rehost is needed. Having contact with others on Teamspeak, I know very well that 30 seconds have passed (sometimes the "connection dropped" message appears for the disconnected guy after 30 seconds, but not in this case).
Now, I know this is caused by my internet having disconnects in the first place (even before the modem got replaced, I had lots of them, but they were always noticed by the game, so it wasn't a problem), but I consider it also a bug in the game, because it's supposed to reconnect while the connection is working again. The game obviously notices that SOMEONE disconnected, but it doesn't know it's me. Is (or will be?) there a way to force the game to try to reconnect?
