Some sort of matchmaking would be nice. It's great we get all this freedom when we create a lobby, but right now, it's just a mess online. Most lobbies don't even have car restrictions, so everyone can choose whatever car he wants, resulting in unfair and unpleasent races. Anyone in the lobby can "start the race". I - as the host - had changed the track when someone not even two seconds after it started the race, resulting in me not being able to make any other changes like how many laps.
And apart from that, I have trouble connecting to many hosts. There is almost no info about each lobby, all I see is what track is selected (unless I'm missing something?). I was expecting to be able to set my own preferences and then get a list of relevant lobbies, instead of blindly joining a lobby to find out myself. And in my last game, I had to quit to the dashboard, because noone could start the game or leave, not even me as the host.
Like I said, it's a mess right now. Very disappointing. I do know the game is just out, so I'm sure lots of patches will follow. But I'm hoping for some sort of matchmaking like Prologue has. But instead like it's in Prologue, let us choose the track and some sort of car restrictions before the matchmaking. Would be so much simpler and convenient, to go online and get in a race. 👍
