A question about Multiplayer

Post by Myrmidon »

Hey, just a quick question, as with all new games, everyone has to start somewhere, right? So even if you have the basic know how to defend yourself, research new tech, set way points and basic unit commands, it strikes me alot of regular players or just players dont want to play you or have you on their team in a 2v2 match or larger etc etc. Immedietly being questioned a 'Noob?' By everyone in the lobby and either being lol'ed at or just being asked to kindly leave. So how is one to learn :lecture: online play if he is not allowed to in the first place? :(

People often don't mind for FFA's, or larger games. Heck, even in 2v2, you should be able to make balanced teams.

The best way to play would probably be to join the IRC channel #warzone2100-games on Freenode (webchat: http://wz2100.net/chat/games ) and ask around.

the best way to improve your skills is to host or join 1v1 games on stock/standard oil maps and lose until you win. occasionally, 2v2s with a superior teammate can be productive if you carefully attend to what your mentor is doing.
