Hello there fine folks!

I'm here to let you know that the Party Queue is now live in the beta branch! This is the version of this feature that we've mentioned in the earlier post here https://steamcommunity.com/games/290340/announcements/detail/1694933761145738182

Please note that the final version that will be available in 2.0 is likely to be different. We're testing it right now to gather your feedback on what works and what might need improvement.

*Features:*

- Party queuing is back! Players may now queue as a group again by converting their Private lobby to a Public one, and we have added a Find Parties: On/Off option on the multiplayer screen.
- Double drops are ON! Get them sweet sweet dice.

*Fixes:*

- Fixed an NMA caused by combat, perils or cards played (Blizzard or similar cards that caused a forced movement) which would result in some tiles sometimes being incorrectly blocked. This would seem to occur in a variety of ways but was ultimately based on any mechanic that forced movement.

*Known Issues:*

- The new Find Parties option button has missing text in languages other than English
- If the leader of a private lobby leaves the lobby after creating, players will not be able to join the existing lobby by using the 'Join Game' option via Steam. Players being sent invites from players still in the lobby does resolve correctly.

How do I get in there?!

All you have to do is navigate to your Steam Library and locate Armello and do the following:
Right click Armello -> Properties -> Betas -> Select the open beta from the dropdown menu

This will download the beta version of Armello. Please be mindful that changing back will cause you to redownload the base game, if you're conscious of your downloads.

As usual, submit your bugs and let us know what you think!

Much love,

<3 Lena and the LoG squad
