One little problem with Frontline

[Tividar]

When a Snake Error attacks your Frontline dropship, relogging results in you continuing toward your intended Ground CZ objective (GOOD).
Unfortunately when you get there, markers for the Alpha-Echo Beacons don't show up and there's no obvious indication for which side is which (VERY BAD).
You can make an educated guess regarding which side is which by noting the security level of your target (defending forces have a non-zero security rating, while attackers have a zero security rating), but that still leaves you blind to the beacon locations and their status (MEH).
Finally, once the CZ is completed, you don't have the option of being recalled by Frontline Dropship - you have to summon an APEX shuttle (LAME).

Frontier should either prompt you for which side you want to fight for when you enter the Ground CZ, or have the Dropship abort back to the origin station. Dropship recovery should always be an option.

Have you tried picking a side when you get there? Same keybind as seeing the result. You probably still won't get a dropship though.

Or relog from the CZ and you'll be teleported to your last visited station. Alternatively use the "I'm stuck" option and you'll be put back in your own ship above the planet.

Dropship recovery always is an option. All you need to do is drop a grenade on your foot, that'll get you back into a dropship and then you have the option of aborting back to the station.

Unless they've fixed a bug, dying when the conflict is over or even just being on your way back to the surface in a dropship when it ends will be treated as a regular death. Meaning you will lose any data, cargo, etc. that you currently have. Ask me how I know...
