  So... in a head to head match, how long do I have to wait for my competitor to Re-Connect? It has been 30 minutes so far, and if I touch any controls of any kind, the message i get is "Do you really want to forfeit this match"?

  Hi ethylplant,

  Waiting for a player over 30 minutes?! I bet you're a kind of person who is dead but won't lie down, huh? LOL

  He's gondie for good and we call this kind of losers QUITTER here. He will never come back and yes, unfortunately that scumbag just wasted your precious time and XPs. :-(

  Just forfeit the match and do not play with strangers if you want to prevent it from happening again. I know it's sad and frustrating, but it looks like that is the only solution available for now.

  Cheers.

  Simon

  Head to head, like "rooms" games, is labelled practice rounds. On PC, these don't provide a re-connect and are aborted on any interruption. OTOH, ranked rounds etc. allow for 2(?) minutes to re-connect.

  Your message speaks against this, but who knows?
