More LFG Talk
So, quite a while back I talked about how to re-work the WoW LFG system that was implemented to make it better. Apparently LFG tools, on the whole, haven’t gotten better.
I decided, that being the case, that I would take the time to work on further ways to improve how grouping is done in MMOs. Tomorrow I’ll be looking into how this will work exactly but there are a couple of key points that are important about the system.
1. Depth - The system should allow for a lot to be done. That is, it needs to be a powerful tool in getting groups and should allow extra options for those that want them, but shouldn’t require a manual of it’s own to figure out…which brings me to…
2. User Friendliness - Let’s face it, if people can’t understand how to use it, they won’t (and most times when they do understand how to use it they don’t anyway.)
3. No spam - Very few people like the LFG spam flooding the various chat channels, encourage the use of private talk in setting up groups.
There will be more to go on later, but those are some key elements to think about.
