Empty Screen After Map Change
« on: 06.17.08 | 03:59 PM »
Sorry if this has already been posted - I searched and checked the previous compilations and didn't find it.  Finished playing a round on shazbot3, then back in the lobby shazbot3 counted down (30, 20, 10 seconds) then said it was changing.  Then I clicked the Ready button.  Below is what happened next.


I found that anytime I switched applications or clicked on the Start menu, it would correctly return me to the lobby.  But even after clicking "Resume Game" there it just did the same.  Eventually I clicked on the Next Game button, and below was the result...


Again I could return to the lobby by switching applications or clicking the Start menu, but clicking "Resume Game" just returned me to that state.  Leaving the party and rejoining resolved it.

I get this as well sometimes when I join a game. It is not just the dedicated servers. I have also had this problem before the dedicated server patch came out. Sometimes just leaving party and rejoining helps, sometimes even closing and re-opening browser doesn't fix it.

Thanks for reporting this.
Any timeline on when this will get fixed?  It's persisted through the most recent build and occurs frequently on both dedicated and listen servers, and is unaffected by whatever timeframe you attempt to join the game at (mid-map, map change, etc.).

I had this same thing happen to me a couple of times this morning. I have only ever seen it when I've been playing in fullscreen mode. I've never had the issue in windowed. Were you guys playing in windowed or fullscreen when it happened?

Bump for emphasis.  This lovely little mother is still there.
