Join Battles Already in Progress

Jump straight into the fight

Until now, a public lobby closed the moment its match began. Not anymore! Lobbies now stay open for the whole match, so you can join a battle that is already underway.

• Browse Lobbies shows matches in progress with an "In Game" tag.
• Quick Match drops you into a running battle first, so you are fighting faster.
• Join your friends from the Steam friends list at any time, even mid-match.

Fair from the first second

• You join the team that needs players, and a bot steps aside to make room.
• The battlefield is the same for everyone: dropped weapons, fences flattened by tanks and vehicle wrecks are all there when you arrive.
• Workshop maps and content download automatically before you join.
• In Haunted, players who join mid-match start as haunts.

Fixes

• If your connection drops while loading in, you now return to the main menu.
• Rejoining a match keeps your place on the scoreboard.
• Stone walls crushed by tanks no longer lose their collision.

See you on the front!
