Lobbies: I don't believe this! This cannot be happening!

Relic finally adds a custom game lobby... and nobody even comments on here to say that it's happening... us casuals have been crying for this for ages and Relic infiltrates it in like it's ashamed of it. And it doesn't even seem to be a bad system. I can even fool around with my docs before hand as well (haven't yet had a game of course).

Long story short, very pleased with patch even though I haven't even bought these new commanders.

It seems that you are the only one who didn't get the news before. It was all over the place before release:D

He was not the only one, I didn't read it anywhere before either before patch log. But it doesn't affect me anyway, I use automatch.

I didn't know it eather. Nice. But this should come with a different ranking system also.

What I'm surprised no one noticed is that you can now mouse over the commanders of your opponents in the loading screen to see what they are.

This is by far not the only 'cool' new feature added. My favorite for example is that I can now hover over commanders and bulletins while loading. After playing Alpha and coming back to Live that really was the thing I missed the most.

Most likely the guys who were bemoaning the lack of public lobbies said "oh cool, finally" and then went back to playing automatch.

Well you cannot blame relic for quietly putting the best way to play coh back into the game after they unjustly removed it for no good reason. It really killed the player base and cost them a lot of sales.

I hope I didn't come across as that... it's just there's been a pile of features put in and they've not even merited a blip on the radar...

Yeah there seem to be numerous UI changes and assorted options that snuck in too.

Good stuff. Adds nice polish to the game.

The only surprising thing is that it wasn't available at launch.

I was also surprise to see all these add-ons and happy to see them but this should have been available at launch like we have said so many times.

Nice job relic for this new feature, this is in the good way with the new ladder. Please rank badges and i'll never complain again.

However, what's the man in charge of their communication really ?

The feature where you can join a game where you don't have the map added is brilliant. You get a little download bar and the map immediately transfers from Steam Workshop.

Excellent.

Doubt it, a lot of those quit playing long time ago.

Is it because I am stupid or is there no way to chat in a public game while the team assembles?

Well, for me public lobbies and annihilation games are the perfect sandbox for the WF armies and i hate playing vs. ai. :P Because i still totally suck with them. :(

And yes, custom map downloads are awesome! Missed them since vcoh...
