I just thoght it would be a good idea to have something which tells you how many people have entered a game on the "join game menu". That way you'd know whether to bother trying to join or if you could quickly join for a 2on2 battle or something.I'm not sure if it would work cos of how fast people can enter and leave and stuff but i think it's a good idea.

If there was a system like this, I would have less difficulty finding out whether which game to join... Then again, I'm much more used to searching for a game myself. So I say this idea is both good and bad. For two reasons...

Actually, that's not a bad idea. I often join a game looking just for a 1 on 1, then join a game w/ 3 other ppl. Before I can hit the Exit Game button, the game has started and I've been sucked into an evil 2 on 2 game.

there really isn't any lag envolved by added a number next to the room...it would be somewhat like the ping number right next to your name

if there would be 4 players in the server it would be 2 on 2....it would only be 1 on 1/tag or 2 on 1 in 2 ppl decide to watch(1 on 1/tag) or if only 1 person decides to watch(2 on 1)out of the 4 of them

not really...it's just numbers. the ping meter updates itself pretty good
