Is a Cancel button that hard to implement?

[Dr-X]

So the authentication servers seem to be having yet ANOTHER outage. I tried foolishly to log into the game (what was I thinking?! ). Now it's been sitting on the "Connecting to servers" screen for the last 6 minutes. Six freakin minutes I cant use my computer! I cant Alt-TAB, or Ctrl+Alt+Del, and there's no cancel button.

WTF is wrong with Dice? Should a decent front end be of at least a little priority in such a huge multiplayer only game?

yeah, for an online game, the lag to log onto servers sux....Battlefront is much better, doesn't lag as much but I dont find it as fun as battlefield in gameplay

yea, same with when you get into the game, it lags forever. What I always love is when i get into a game and its lagging as normal since i just joined, and I spawn and start to run forward...it lags, then suddenly somehow I turned around. Happened to me once when there was a tank, instead of running forward and out of its view, I somehow turned a full 180 and ran right into its view. I love lag!!..........*grumble*

and yea, I hate how long it takes to get into a server...once you get to that "verifing whatever" screen, cant do anything but wait...
