In matchmaking, if you want to play in team, you simply have to select your team mates as ally in the chat interface (it is visible only when in a lobby atm I think)

It is being done or will be done soon as well as other things in that area

It already available somehow thanks to the ally system.

In elite for instance you can set two of your buddies as ally to play with them.

You'll be matched with the closest team.

You can try on our server !

how ?
Do i click on a player name and select ally ?

Ally sounds great

Yes, but the other player also need to set you as ally. It's not crystal clear right now, we'll work on making it clearer

Will it be possible that there is 1 lobby and multiple MatchServers?

Now its only 1 Lobby server and 1 MatchServer.

With it you can have more multiple matches on different servers and not 1 match where the wait might be long.

with kind regards,

It's already possible. I have already done with 3 MatchServers.

There are already many match servers.

I think it's 4 on our lobby and many on Drakonia

Ok thank you for the information.

Version 0.2 is out.

Ye i know that u can set allies and bla bla.
What i meant was: suppose that im trying to find a match with my teammats John and Jack against an organized opponent (a serious team, or at least 3 friends playing togheter).

Would be nice having a button that, when all the members of a team are online, popups in the menu allowing to find a match against an opponent with the same skill of my team. Everything would be based on teams created directly in maniaplanet..

Another feature would be that, in your team page, u can add your favourites server list (the servers where u ping the best or whatever). The system can match the servers in both the lists (the one of my team and the opponent one) and fetch the best server for everyone

Dunno if u get what i mean


I know these features are not easy to be implemented, specially so close to the release but this would really diversify this game from anything else on the market.

Tourney, practice and everything in-game. No more irc needed. What else ?
