clicking on a game should auto-populate the game name so we can copy and paste it for the next run without having to type it.
game list needs to remove games with no players in them
games list needs to remove games longer than 2 hours with only 1 player
i dont need to see my entire lobby filled with games 1-8 hours long with only lvl 4’s in them
its pathetic… i cant find a single actaul game… its the start of ladder this needs to be fixed
i mean don’t get me wrong when i can GET into a game its really fun…
but i literally cant find people to play with
online is basically single player because i cant find games with other people and they cant join my games because they don’t show up on the list to join.
IDK is this has something to do when u added console lobbies but since around 2.2 or 2.3 its been broken
but that’s where i would check first.
SOMETHING is hiding games that should not be hidden and showing games that not be showing
and it WAS working fine in beta and on release

I’m still surprised the game launched without being able to filter/sort by name and duration. It should be easy to search for games with the word baal in the name + with a duration under x minutes for example.

I’ve noticed this myself. No one is joining my games for some reason.

It’s really embaressing when the d2 mods like project diablo 2 that also run on the same native d2 code but have massively smaller budgets have a lobby experience that’s like 10x better than what we got.

Could not enter a Baal game from the list. Either game didn’t exist or full. If the game doesn’t exist, then why is it listed? Made game Baal 001. Teled down. Literally waited 7 mins, No one ever came. I know your pain.

This is exactly why the ladder of having 'Friends" makes it kinda impossible to compete (i don’t play ladder to actually proceed in the rankings i like the fresh start aspect) but i feel for those who do try and just really don’t have friends. Sometimes people don’t have the time to build social lives and then there are those who stream where their career is based upon progressing in the game. So i think there should be separated leader boards in such. If you ever play a public game then you should be disqualified from solo leader boards. that’s just my opinion. But yeah these game listings impact my game play experience highly. i work all the time and i just wanna jump in and start with some randoms where they haven’t cleared the whole game 9 hours ago. LOL.

I also see the same list of games. Even when I click refresh button.
I think its programmed in some bad way. For sure there is hundreds and hundreds of games available.
I got totally opposite experience. When I search baal games I usually waste time, as its usually full or finished.
So I make my own baalruns with my barb. In few moments its full. I just ask some sorc to tele and baalruns are good to go. People are thirsty for baalruns.
It’s really a compounding issue having new games not show up in the list half the time. You don’t see the game when it’s new, but you’re looking for a fresh Baal run or whatever. You see a bunch of really old ones that obviously are no good, but sometimes you’ll stumble across a 5+ minute game and assume that’s either over or soon to be over as well when in some cases nobody else ever joined it and it’s actually not complete.
Successful runs are likely just filling up so fast you wouldn’t see them in the list anyway if all the previous game players are re-joining the new game, but I’ve joined a Baal run that was only 2 minutes old and only one other person was in it. Waited a couple minutes, nobody else joined so we left.
The oldschool game list just will never work out. Even if refreshing preferred showing newer games, you’re just wasting so much space in the list showing games that have nothing to do with what we’re looking for. We don’t need to see a list full of games that aren’t the kind of game we’re looking for. We have to be given search/filtering tools. No idea what they’re waiting for.

Blizz is trash that doesn’t deliver !
Damned if they do, damned if they don’t.
There was push back to changing the lobby system for more of a matchmaking system, like console has. Womp womp. Cry more. No one will be playing in a month anyway.
