To join a public game after the start of the domination mode you have to choose the tab "public areas". With this workaround solution we hope to give everyone the chance to play the new domination mode. The whole thing is just a workaround until public areas available. The game and card settings are random, but it is allowed for anyone to start their own game with new settings. All matches will be randomly filled to the max count of players. You get an invitation to those random games, if you have started domination mode once before, but didn’t find any players. It is an invitation for a random game, which are being generated automatically by our servers to allow players to play domination mode without any ANNO contacts. I received an invitation for a game of "Random_Map_xyz".
In the meantime your team members will be able to use the save game to continue.Īttention! Please remember that the domination mode is an online feature and it can be played only online! The Beta requires also an ANNO 2070 installation with Patch 1.4 already installed. For example you can play one hour, leave the game afterwards and then reenter it at any time. Your progress is automatically transmitted to the server when you save or solve a mission successful. The domination mode works asynchronously, which mean that you do not have to be online simultaneously. When you achieve more points than the opposing team in a mission, you automatically win this mission and gain access to other missions with other tasks. You will get points for solving continuous singleplayer missions with an increasing level of difficulty: Alone or in coop. In the domination mode two teams with up to 5 members are fighting for the highest score. Until then, you can use the "whisper" function: Right-click on the player, you want to chat with, and then click on "whisper". Is there a domination chat that can only use my team?Ĭurrently we don’t have a domination chat yet, but we are working on it and will deploy it within the next patches. You have to wait until a friend from your contact list adds you to a game. Alternatively, you can also right click on a player name to add.Ĭurrently there in no such thing as a public lobby, and therefore there are no public games, where you can participate. If you want to add a player to your contact list, type his ANNO name into the "Add to Contact List" and confirm it with the enter key. If you click on it, your personal contact list will appear. In the menu in the lower left corner you can perceive a symbol with two figures beside a globe. How can I add other players to my contact list? IMPORTANT: In order to start the game, at least one player has to be invited and active in each team! Contacts from your contact list which have the domination mode installed can be added like this, too. To do so, you need to click on buttons above for team red or below for team blue in the score bar. If you want to start the game you need to invite other players. If you have created a new game, you're in it alone at first.
How do I invite other players into the game? You should visit our official beta forum if you have questions, issues, comments, critics or feedback.
