    Instead of having to straight up create a new lobby, having the option to return to the lobby would be an excellent feature. Players with the slow internet can have problems finding rehost/rematch lobbys.




    If this exists, I might have to stop posting for a while to clear my head, so many derpy posts lately gah

    Good idea, multiple game in a row here we go..
    However in FFAs how would this work?

    Ask your opponent to rematch, you both click "return to lobby."

    also could do this if metal is imbalanced, no tedious rehosting.

    I mean in a 10 way FFA, most people wouldnt stick around after they die so maybe it sends a message to rejoin if they havn't already joined another game perhaps...

    It could probably be somehow tied in to the invite system, just automated I guess.

    have a status bar somewhere in the menu, and a popup sound notice game has ended. Then you can click and join the lobby. I definitely feel like its interesting to talk about how a game went. in a lobby after the game is over.
