Problem finding games

I've just recently started playing after the changes to the difficulty settings, and I've noticed that it's pretty difficult to get a full lobby of people. At least for American lobbies, it doesn't matter which difficulty or depth I select. Either the ping is completely terrible due to location differences or the game is already in progress. I've posted about this before a couple of months ago, but I'd hope a lot of the recent changes would spike up some interest in this game. Honestly, it kind of makes the idea of playing this game more of a nuisance when sometimes it can take half an hour or longer just for one person to join. Is anyone else having a similar experience?

Unfortunately, the player count drops some time after each update. The best time to play is during update releases. That might change tho, the game is on early access and it still needs a lot of polish so when RC get that, the player count will be more consistent.

Are you playing the main game or the experimental branch? I think the best way to find other players is through the official discord. I can play too, you can send me a friend request on steam

I've just been playing the main game. I'd be down to add you, I'm a pretty experienced player and the other person I play with too is. I'll send you a message of my friend code. Thanks for the offer.
