New LFG interface announced

We saw some leaked screenshots not too long ago, but now we have official news of an interesting new LFG interface. And, if we're lucky, players might actually use it. Via this new interface panel, you can select what sort of things you might be wanting to group for, and other players can use the same interface to find folks interested in grouping for the same activities. Tobold also gives some information on this system in the first of his Burning Crusade journal entries, in which he notes that most players still seem to shout out for players via the old LFG line. Hopefully by the time the expansion is released, we'll see a whole slew of players making use of this feature.Filed under: Expansions

I;d like to see an area for notes under both windows. Something along the lines of "full t2" would make the best players stand out from the rest and make PUG's much more tolerable.

I might actually LFG now.

Medivak: There's a comment section in the tool.

The only way that this will be the defenitive source for finding a group is that if they get rid of the LFG channel. So that way people are forced to use the tool. I know this is pretty obvious, but this is blizzard we are talking about.

I am in the closed-beta currently and the LFG channel is indeed gone.

Here's a comment from blue that's pretty interesting.
"In addition to this, meeting stones will be useable as a summoning point if two members of a group use it to summon a third."

"I know this is pretty obvious, but this is blizzard we are talking about."

I'm in the closed beta now, and the LFG channel is still there, just not joined by default anymore. Really, no need, and they might just scap the channel at release, which they should.
