Friends-only games?

Akamir · 01-25-2011, 12:09 PM

Hi guys! Very pleased with the game so far, but I was wondering if it was possible to host friend-only games? It can be annoying to have slots snatched away before they get a chance to log in.

I think it's possible to kick people out, but that's just rude.

side/related question for you: does the join function etc use the steam interface? i.e. can your friends right click your name and do "join game" from the steam UI?

Yeah, it shows the "Player is playing Magicka, click here to join" thingie. Seems you can also kick people by rightclicking their name in the steam overlay.
