My understanding is that they're rolling some features in an update, like public chat rooms and clan support. But my copy's supposed to be out for delivery, so I'll check tonight and do it if possible.
One more thing. I'm told you have to pick a name and live with it, just like AoE3. So, if they don't have clan support later we won't have the KS on our names. I'm going to use KS_Harp, but the rest of you will have to decide whether to put the KS in your name, or hope that clans will be supported later.
It was my understanding there would be clans and guilds so I didn't want KS KS_Nike so i just did Nike...i'm sure it will be updated because right now it is impossible to talk to people!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey guys, I'm on there as Prophecy. Is it even possible right now to put underscores in our names? I didn't mess with it much but I was under the impression you couldn't. I probably shouldn't play multiplayer games until I get my new computer here in a couple weeks, seeing as how my lag creates problems for me in 1v1s (old college laptop). Between my lag and years passed since my last RTS playin' I'm not real good, so I hope someone is ready to carry me until I can tread water hah. See ya out there.
Hey Prohp, good to see you. I couldn't put an underscore on my name so it is KSHarp. So far I see no clan section. I think we need email addresses to find friends but I'm told not to put it here. So, message me on skype and I'll give you my email address.
Once someone gets you on their list, the contact can be shared via suggestion. And you can add people as you play games with them without the need for the RealID.
edit:
Btw, I do suggest not putting email addresses in the public forums because they are crawled by the search engines. Someone was spamming golf crap in here recently, too.
