Hosting ESO games

Post by toriancarconn »

Hello,

I've recently started playing on ESO, it's great fun.

I'd like to find out if I can improve my experience, though: does there exist a way, while hosting a game, to set a certain range of level, below and above which a player cannot enter the game? The reason why I'm asking is that, although the name of the game I'm hosting is indicating that I'm looking for a beginner to noob level, there are almost always people showing up who are much stronger. Some of these, although I'm trying my best to say it in a polite way and ask them to leave, do not respond politely.

Yeah, its sort of hard to fill lobbies with people all the same level, unless you have a full friends list and invite individuals. Most of the active players on EP are high level so especially for those of us under Captain level, the lobby will not fill up with equal skill level players. The good news is, if you are able to get games started and dont mind being the lowest ranked player in the game, you will certainly improve. Just add nice people to your friends list and pest the annoying ones so you can build up a nice stock of players that you can have fun with and maybe learn from. And lastly, using discord to communicate with your team makes you play better and I feel makes the experience of AOE so much more enjoyable. Again, you might have to be selective of who you want to join discord servers with as many may have different idea's of what "fun" is with this game.

Hello @aligator92 and @HeadKilla,

thanx for your advice, I appreciate it. I've joined a couple of AOE related Discord channels, including the ESOC one. I agree that it makes things easier as I can connect to other players there.
What is the max. number of people one can add to the Friends/Pest list?
