Bedrock Option not to join existing games

[Silco]

Hey everyone, in the recent Blockwars update it is now possible to join a random game that has already started.

This is good as it lets outnumbered teams refill, but it also really sucks. Like for example you can join a game where the scores are 1/15 in the opposing team’s favour and it’s not good. I think a toggle button to just either go into games as usual or only go into games that haven’t started and are still in the player joining stage.

TL;DR
Add a toggle so that you can join games that have not started yet rather than being forced with whatever.
React with agree if you want to see this added or disagree if you don’t think it is needed.

@Story Is there a reason this isn’t currently possible? It seems almost like an error, it makes literally no sense to me why you can’t join a normal game on the Bedrock server.

It is possible, but is more likely to join an existing one unless you have the rank and start a map with 0 waiting.

Or alternatively another portal solely for games that haven’t already started

That would unnecesarily split up the player count for the same game in two different new games. I think the best solution would be to add an account setting to decide whether you would like to join games that have already started or not.
