New Lobby system makes the game feel dead

<< < (2/2)

BlackenedPies:
Wait time has been significantly reduced. I recommend beefing up your friends list and using that to find matches. If you don't want to queue create a custom lobby and invite to MM. It should immediately fill up with anyone waiting in queue. Stacked lobbies and crew forms take longer to match.

MM was a turn off to most when it first came out, but it has undergone many fixes and is the best thing to happen to the game. Statistically lobbies are more balanced with less wait time. You can create custom lobbies not connected to MM so the system is optional.

Recommended loadouts are the best thing ever.

Feel free to give me an in game add, I rarely of ever hit that play button and find crews and lobbies via my friends list! So joining on me will often give a fun match!

I must have been unlucky first few times I had a 10min+ wait (before I bailed), gave it another go and it was short (nearly instant) and once a bunch of games are going it's like old times. Still, I found the old way much more inviting, if that makes any sense.

I kind of doubt this is much faster than the old way though, unless things got really bad in the period where I wasn't playing, of course... But people still jump ship once the match has been made extending the time before you actually get to play etc. etc. Seems pretty samey to me, but that might be the rose coloured goggles of memory speaking.

If population drops below 100 it shows all lobbies. Friend everyone who communicates so you can see where they're playing. Creating a custom lobby and clicking Recruit from Queue is often the fastest way to get a lobby as captain.

Stamina is a thing now so press shift to use it. As engi it's often best for running to your gun, broken component, or saving a critical component from dying (or fire). As gunner you reload faster and get extended arcs. Gunner stamina refills slowly so don't waste it during reloads and end up needing it for arcs. Pilot stamina is awesome and is best used to supplement tools.
