Back to Lobby??

Just bought BF 2042 and jumped into a game (can be any game/mode including Portal). Most times game has started already. Once maps has ended there is no choice but to go back to the Lobby and search for another mode to play.

Is there no way to keep on 1 server (including Portal) and continue on to the next map? Can't believe there isn't but, please enlighten me!

Thanks,

Russ

@basiktraining don't hit any buttons or "continue" or "return to menu". Just hang tight and you should end up back in the queue. Some Portal matches are one-time instances, and there is no choice but to manually join again afterwards.

@basiktraining yeah, it is a terrible design choice, but any button, like Return to Menu and I even think Continue may kick you back to the lobby.

If I wanted to stay in queue, I just don't click anything until I can see the counter looking for players.

@Adamonic is correct, however I did want to add that IF you get any reward from the battle pass or you level up something on a gun or vehicle, you can click on those items until they go away...other than that...NOTHING.

Just like the others have said above me, don't do anything at the end of round and it will put you back in automatically. If you have a random squad that plays well together, if you let them know not to hit anything at the end of the round, it will keep your squad together for the next match. I’ve been in several games back-to-back with the same random squad.
