Suggestion: Launch directly to a menu like a proper PC game

Send us straight to a proper PC game menu with the character select, settings/options, exit game.

If the servers are down as they are now, you get stuck in a loop and can’t exit the game without Alt-F4. Not a big deal but it reveals the flaw in having to “press to start” and needing a server to get to settings, graphics, keybindings etc. It’s senselss console peasantry. Menus should not be gatekept.

Just go back to the successful and working model of launching a game and ending up in a menu after videos. +allow us to toggle off the videos((or delete/rename the files) and just remove the “press ‘space’ to start” screen altogether.

During the Beta, several people pointed out that getting back into a game after a crash takes an asbsurdly long time and too many clicks and hopefully you plan to let us join straight to a match via steam friends’ list.

  1. Launch
  2. Launcher Launch
  3. Skip intro
  4. Skip start screen (oh, you have to queue to get to your game settings… position in queue: 18280)
  5. reconnect

I guess our keybindings and graphics settings are saved to the server??
