lobby

[niknaks]

 will histwar be getting a mutiplayer lobby like in scourge of war: gettysburg because i think it could do with one, as it hard for players to find  TCP/IP games

There are many vigorous discussions going on right now.  Nobody is quite sure which way to go.  Some want Hamachi others Tunngle, others a lobby.  Read the Multiplayer sub Forum.

Nobody want really a solution like Hamachi, Tunngle or other network freewares, there are these networks because we haven't an MP lobby.

Shhhhhhhh.....not so loud !! you will wake up Hook again .     However I have to agree with Darsh , Hamachi isn't a solution its a temporary/alternate  means of playing...or used to be before the last patch. Haven't tried Tungle yet so can't comment on it,but will be giving it a good road test when the current MP problem is fixed.

I agree. 

From the latest Hook told us (on the other topic) I'm hopefully that it will play as intended to when it's fixed, but again a "proper" game lobby would be perfect !.

It will be very hard indeed if your not a member of a group of some kind, then it becomes easier, but not everyone wants to join a group, this is where the lack of a lobby is most serious, for a player who wants to log in and see if there's anyone around to get an MP games with. 

I would advise joining a group, be it NBC or one of the many others around, find one that you like the look of and that fits with the type of gamer you are - and join in with the on-line Community.
