if u want to play with your friends in the same team this is what you will have to do :

Open your friendslist ( ingame , not in steam ).
Select the friend you want to play with.
Open the chatwindow
Click on the "Set as Alley" button.

Your friend also needs to do this.

Now join a matchmaking server together and press F6 at the same time.
( if your friend doesnt press F6 when you already have , you will be matched with other players. )

Good Luck! :yes:


PS : you only have to do this once! The game will remember your allies.

I'll add something about the "at the same time": the system runs the matchmaking algorithm every 16 seconds. If are unlucky, the system check if there is a match 1 second after you press f6 (and you buddy was not ready at this time.

By the way, if you are not matched with your ally, you can press f6 to cancel match start and you won't get any penalty.

There is not "Set as Alley" button if I click on my buddy.

If I click on a buddy it just opens a chat windows and thats all.
