    The current pre-release of the client ("pioneer" in the version) is only compatible to itself. So you can only play with other testers. Please be aware!

    The biggest Problem with faf is lag

      The fact is that you cannot determine how laggy the game will be from the lobby pings. Leading to games which last 2 minutes then everyone leaves. This is Massively Annoying and causes people to stop playing all together. Lobby Simulator is a HUGE problem

      Possible solution: Have a lobby button which runs a sizeable multiway packet test between all players, and shows which players are behind, just like in game. IDK if this is even possible.

      If it isnt possible keep working on game based lag, there was a nice improvement to this last patch. Keep it up

        There is some connection testing on the horizon. But as with everything soon™.

          I think it's fair to say that everyone knows lag can be an issue but the volunteers have been looking into it. If you want to contribute time or effort to fixing this issue just reach out to the team.
