How to: Player Matching - Multiplayer Lobby

[manaze]

Im curious to know if anybody has been able to actually get a game going with the Lobby ingame browser.
Ive just installed 2.1b5 and i see no online games. Is there a Lobby where players are other than ingame? Gamespy seems to be dead of anyone. I know directgames made it possible a long time ago, but that place is also dead.

If anyone can shed light on player matching with the new beta, please let me know whats up.

I see Games with the Beta 5 - just tested it right now...
If there are no Games listed in the inGame-Lobby, then it means, that.. there are no Games opened
You can download Xfire and join the Warzone2100-Clan:

There you can find some few People, who are sometimes willing to play :rolleyes:

I can see that allot of people are looking for games. Not very many host games though.
And the ones that do host games, almost always take the game down, before people find it.

Yes, Buginator, and because of that, i recommend as the first Work which has to be done at the Lobby, are a User-List of People, who are in it and a Lobby-Chat.

Next should be: Game Creator is the Mod of the Game and can kick, set a Password ect.
