Official Multiplayer Registration

[DASANI™ WATER]

There is no information within game on how/where to register for the official multiplayer server. The last time I played this wasn't required as far as I know.

There really should be a link provided in the client to where you do this(you need to make a forum account).

Completely agree, I already had an account but my friends got very annoyed when we could not play together.

Unless its been changed in a day, it does tell you however it only tells you if you hover over the text box to put your username. I do agree it should tell you when you try to log in or something though.

We're working on this and other reported issues for the next update, which hopefully will be out after the weekend or so.

I'm not getting an email verification and it has been over a day. Is this normal?

Before someone asks yes I have checked spam and nothing is blocked.

What is your forum account name? You can email forums AT wesnoth.org with this info as well and we'll activate your account by hand.

Hey ShikadiQueen, can we pin this post so that other people don't make duplicate posts, etc. I think it'd be useful for people who are struggling.

[Snobgoblin]

I second that

while it is not an official wesnoth one you can try at: http://wesnoth.gamingladder.info/
in multiplayer you can see those game titled "ladder game"

Will there ever be Steam Multiplayer support for this, or will we always have to have a forums account?

From my guess, since they support the game themself with their own server list, it will always be under the forum account, they literally have no reason to take it over to Steam.

@TTVXordania That makes sense, thanks for the response. I didn't really want to make a forums account just for this one game. I guess if I have no other choice I might as well right?

[DASANI™ WATER]

You're able to direct connect to other players/servers, only the official server list requires a forum account. If you just want to play with a friend its not necessary.

@LOTOX How could I direct connect? Its just friends I've made over steam so I don't know anything personal.
