Oh boy, do I miss HL

Yes, I miss the option to host via HyperLobby a lot.

I miss that one could create a mission, like a training mission with various of tasks to practise. Then you could host your own room on HyperLobby.

 

Sadly those days are over.

Fingers crossed mate, hopefully we will end up with something like this in the near future.     

 

 

Edit: From the announcement.

 

 

 Larger Picture

 

As you can see we have ambitious plans for Sturmovik. No doubt you will have many questions and concerns about what we have announced. The bigger picture is that are now ready to try making parallel products for our WW2 fans, WW1 fans and possible new customers who enjoy tank battles. But beyond that, we hope to accomplish the following in our next development cycle.

 

-          New MP matchmaking system and lobby with chat

-          Improvements to aircraft fuel systems and add drop tanks

-          Oxygen masks for pilots at high attitude

-          Jet engine technology and associated physics of higher Mach numbers

-          Improvements to AI

-          Option for 4K skins by default and preview pics in the GUI for Custom skins

-          In-Game Model Viewer (hold over from Kuban)

-          Mods On/Off (hold over from Kuban)

-          More attractive GUI and better GUI optimization

…. and many other small, medium and large improvements to usability, functionality and performance.

Hyperlobby was brilliant, and so easy to use. Used to be a 1000 people on it sometimes!

In the mean time, with a command line argument to join a server and a server list api the community could build a lobby.
