Title: LFG tool beginning to annoy
Post by: eldaec on May 19, 2004, 12:14:26 AM
Level 19.

Appropriate level potential group members could be spread across any instance of Skyway, Steel Canyon, Faultline, or Independence Port.

One is green line only, one is yellow line only, one is on neither line.

Arrgh.

They really need to make 'Find Members' work across all insatnces of all zones.

/whine off.

Thankyou for your time.

That would be good.
I'd like to see a preference panel for the type of team your looking for. ie:
A- less than an hour
B- hour +
C - couple of hours
D- catass till the birds chirp

Or how bout these :)
A - I only have 2 bubs til level then I'm gonna ditch the group.
C - Looking for team till mom calls me for dinner
D - looking for team who will wait around while I go shopping for insps and train.
E - Looking for team that whines about the xp not being high enough until we find an area where mobs are way purple and wipe us out.

ROFL RipSnort, I see you have had some xp with groups in games before.

Seriously, EQ finally came up with a decent LFG tool, would love to see same here in CoH.  Of course it would have to do all instances of zones.  Would be nice to add Rips team type preference (< hour, hour+, TF, mission, roaming hunt, etc.)

I beleive this will become even more important as the population "ages" in game, with a wider disparity in toon levels.  It will soon not be so easy to go to Boomtown and broadcast LFT and get instant invites.  Need to advertise in multiple zones to have a better chance of finding a group.
