LFG Features
We built LFG to be a full teammate-finding ecosystem — smart matching, reputation, rewards, and community integration all in one.
Finding Teammates
Smart Match
Automatically surfaces LFG sessions for games already in your library. Zero search required — the right sessions find you based on your actual play history.
Activity Type Pills
One-click filter chips for all 9 activity types: Ranked, Casual, Campaign, Co-op, Raid, Tournament, Achievement Hunt, Speedrun, and Other.
Region & Skill Filters
Filter by region (6 global regions) and skill level (Beginner to Expert). Find players who match your timezone and expected skill level.
Session Posts
Scheduled Sessions
Schedule sessions in advance with a specific date and time. Posts auto-expire 2h after the scheduled start, keeping the list clean.
Session Tags
Add custom tags like "no spoilers", "achievement hunter", "chill vibes", or "sweat squad". Tags filter out incompatible players before they join.
GG Coin Boost
Spend 50 GG Coins to boost your post to the top of the list for 6 hours. Fill faster for time-sensitive sessions like scheduled raids.
Voice Chat Platform
Specify Discord, TeamSpeak, in-game voice, or no voice. Players know upfront exactly what communication tools are needed.
Session Duration
Set expected duration (30min to 4h+). Casual players won't accidentally commit to a 4-hour raid session.
Reputation
4-Dimension Rating System
Rate teammates on Teamwork, Communication, Skill, and Fun Factor separately. Gives a detailed picture of what kind of player someone is.
Permanent Reputation Score
Ratings accumulate into a permanent public score visible on your profile. Good teammates build visible status over time.
"Would Play Again?" Metric
Alongside star ratings, players answer a simple yes/no: "Would you play with this person again?" Count shows on your reputation card.
Rating Comments
Leave an optional short comment with each rating. Lets teammates give specific feedback beyond just a number.
Rewards & Progress
XP for Every Action
Join a session (+20 XP), complete it (+50 XP), rate a teammate (+10 XP). Every interaction moves your profile forward.
9 Exclusive LFG Badges
From "First Contact" (join first session) to "Session Legend" (50 sessions) and "Top Teammate" (10 five-star ratings) — LFG has a full badge progression track.
Session Management
Session Lifecycle
Open → In Progress (auto, when full) → Completed (host closes) or Cancelled. Ratings only open after completion keeps quality high.
Pending Ratings Dashboard
"My Sessions → Rate Pending" shows every completed session where you haven't yet rated all teammates — with one click to jump to their profile.
Min. Account Level Gating
Set a minimum account level to filter out brand-new accounts. Good for sessions that require game knowledge or proven community standing.
Platform Integration
Clan Integration
LFG posts from your clan members are highlighted in search. Clan officers can post sessions that double as recruitment tools.
Saved Searches
Save up to 5 searches with notification alerts. Get notified when a session matching your exact criteria is posted.
Library-Powered Matching
Smart Match cross-references your game library. Games you're actively playing or have wishlisted are matched to open sessions automatically.
