With the ability of having multiplayer free flight now, would it also be possible to let players join a free flight game already in session?asked by Rex_Maxim
TL;DRRoberts doesn't see why joining a game in session would be blocked, and a better matchmaking system is a high priority, though it won't arrive next week.
Yeah, actually I'll check on that, but I don't know why we'd particularly block you from joining a game in session... We're definitely working on a system where you can see what games are available and if there are open slots you can join and also see the general skill rankings of the games. It's actually a really high priority goal to optimise the matchmaking system, we've got a new one in the works but the temporary one that we've got working right now is definitely not good enough in the long term. We're replacing it with the one that will also be driving the PU and have all sorts of other features as well, but that takes time. So I guess I'll say this isn't something that'll happen next week, but it's definitely the plan down the line, it might only need some UI changes, I don't know at the moment.
