Once “Quick Match” is removed everyone will be forced to host games just the way we’ve done on ESO, Voobly, EE, AoE3 and this will lead to a long lasting stable community. This will lead to new friends, new clans and more competition.
Currently, Quick Match is dividing the community that wants to play unranked games, we don’t want to play rated 24/7. With quick match it puts us vs noobs, which is a waste of time. We’re forced to play on that silly Quick Match mapset, which isn’t fun.
We’ll have a community where we can host games titled Experts Only, Noobs etc. We get to interact with other players, we get to pick the maps, we get to pick who plays. We want to relax and play with friends of different skill level. At the moment the community is competing against Quick Match because players are not using the lobby.
I have never played AoE4 but I’m guessing you have a similar feature there and this is the mistake on your part. The AoE4 community is constantly declining, you guys should fix your mistake here and remove “Quick Match” from Retold.
-The filters for “Browse Games” should save so we don’t have to set them each time.
-Game Title for regular games should be blank so we’re forced to enter a meaningful title.
-Adding in-game observing option; Normally we have a group of friends who play game after game and some want to take a break, the in game observing option would be very convenient. Atm, we have to leave and find the game, which is not easy and players end up leaving.
