Looking for Multiplayer Matches

[TheHumanHydra 2]

Hey there,

I recently started trying to play this game online. However, it seems fairly difficult to find a match, and I'm not sure why.

Generally when I log on there are roughly 32-36 players online and 10-12 games going. So there are maybe a dozen players waiting in the lobby. But no one is ever hosting a game to be joined, and, when I host games, I can wait for half an hour without anyone joining. I've tried advertising my games using the chat feature with little response. As such I've played only four games across, I don't know, six to eight sessions.

Do people only play against their Steam friends? Are people turned off by the fact I'm only a 2nd Lieutenant? Are there certain scenarios which are preferred?

What is everyone doing in the lobby when they're not playing games?

I think its hard to find opponents too... No one is actually joining games. Maybe too few online these days...

Well, fox2run, if you're interested, I'm going to have another go at it right now.

Maybe some other time. I'm going to sleep as it is late... 

:-D

No problem, fox2run. We might be in different time zones, judging by your comment.

What time do you normally go on, Young (and what time zone are you in?)?
