I can't figure out what value the friends list has. I have added a number of people that I have played random games with but I can't figure out how to invite them to play with me again.

I can see that they are online and either in another game or the lobby, but there's no way for me to communicate with them directly to say I am online and invite them to my game.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hmm, the only way really is to communicate via IM i think.
(Hopefully someone will offer a better way than this)
But from what i've read you can send them a code (Which you can't do when in the room without leaving obviously) so if you do this via a live IM, it'd work.

If AGv3 has a live chat option t'll work great then too.

I'd also like to know a better way, so if anyone knows any let me know ^.^ Thanks.

i have been wondering this too. Leaving the room is the only way unless you are in contact with the person. I wish I could be more help. Jefferysinspiration probably has the best option.

So all in all the friends list is mostly pointless.

Also is there any way to search the rooms by name?

I don't think it is possible sadly daleks, i even tried googling it, but yet again, hopefully someone will have more knowledge.

Thanks for the replies. Glad I'm not the only one hoping for an improved friends system.

daleks - you can search the rooms by name by clicking on "filter" at the top of the Rooms list. There are a few options for filtering there, including a text box to search by name.

so easy if you want to be team in the game or play vs u?
If team : There is a Question mark click on it and put it in number 1 or 2 mean team 1 or 2
if vs u : there is no invite someone to play vs u .... u have to wait until player come to your game to play vs u

so this how u play vs someone or team

@zizo, we're talking about specific friends rather than picking the team you want to be on. Is it possible?

@Armen, you cna chat to your friends here and play shell shock live here. We're talking about specific invites into specific rooms.

well if u can play here and chat, have 2 tabs open, one being a chat, and one being a game. tell ur friend the room code, and tell them to open the game in another tab and enter the room w/ u. i think that works, right? i dunno how to chat w/ friends though, so if any1 can tell me how would be great!
