This is actually ridiculous. I made a similar post like 2 years ago and nothing has changed. Meanwhile I had 3 different computers, I have friends with the same issue and yet there is still the same problem and no bug fix.
So after joining a game (royal mode for me) you are stuck in the map overview and can't do anything except for closing the game and try your luck again. So when I want to play this game, I have to restart it 1-10 times in order to play it which could take up to 20 minutes of wasted time everyday for 2 years. I really have no hope for this anymore because you don't seem to really care about this problem, yet here I am in anger and try it again.
Don't even try to search for the problem on my side, it's all on you.
Regards
