How do i re-enter game with different loadout?

(1/2) > >>

roder:
entered lobby and it automatically started when i joined, they needed an engy when i joined as a gunner, so i tried backing out and changing my class. i didn't get it to work properly, is there a way to do it?

also is there a way to change your loadout if you picked the wrong equipment, once game started

thanks in advance

Imagine:
Hit esc, abandon match, reset your loadout, click on Resume.

NoWuffo:
Yeah there's no loadout changing in-game. If you Abandon Match, it starts a 90 second window where your spot on the ship is held by an AI, giving you enough time to get back in if you accidentally left or your comp crashed. If you change your class/loadout in that time, you'll see the Resume option at the top of the main menu, or you can go through the Matches list and find the same match to jump back in (the Resume button is way faster).

As a pilot who often changes ships but forgets to change loadouts, I do this all the time. I either back out right when the match starts, or immediately after our ship goes down. That way I know I have a few seconds to spare where it won't hurt us.

Ooo! I get to correct Wuffo!

Almost! If you need to change class, you can't hit the "Resume" button. To change class, you NEED to rejoin through the Matches list or Friends List. Hitting "Resume" at the top will NOT change your class, but WILL change your loadout.

What drogonmere said.  That's the only way to change class when in a match.
