[2021] Friendslist bug - friends in Ranked matches always show as "in MENU"

The ubisoft connect friends' list doesn't show players in game correctly

• Players in Ranked matches show as "in MENU"
• Players in Casual matches show as "QUICK MATCH match - Round 1/4" regardless of the actual round.
• Players searching for Ranked show as queuing correctly, but return to "In MENU" as soon as the queue pops.

This bug seems to have been around for at least a year. eg. https://steamcommunity.com/app/359550/discussions/1/4578439633214435347/

It has been present for me since I returned in Y6S1. I clean-reformatted my whole PC and reinstalled the game around Y6S2, and it was still present afterwards.

This game is very hard to play solo, and this problem makes a team-based game even harder to play as a team. I would appreciate a fix. Many people with the bug might not even realise why all their friends seem afk.
