Where is the lobby ?

[icepack]

Hi,

i bought civilization 5 today and am a bit confused. i played civ 4 bts before and am used to a "big" lobby with chat, which i like alot.
Today i started civ 5 and went to multiplayer online. What i found was a lobby with 2 games and no chat. My question is, WTH ? i read about the steam groups and joined one, which has alot of members, a thousand people online, a couple of hundreds in-game, but 0 in chat.
How do i get on their server ? so that i see all the available games in my multiplayer lobby. Can someone help me ?

join the group steam chat. oone is in civ5 lobby since the lobby has no chat function.

If you join CP or NQ there is almost allways people in the steamchat.

thanks for the link. i found this vpn-guide: Moderator Action: *snip* looks like they have the biggest chat.

well, thats the most visited network and chat of civ5. the whole civ5 community is split up in lots of groups. not good. its sad that there is no gamespy lobby anymore, like in civ 4.

Yes promoted by a guy that promotes pirating of Civ5, he is a criminal and I would not want to be associated with his organization. There are 15-20 games registered every day on CivPlayers, and many played on NQ as well, so I would refrain from saying that the RU "league" has more players, they are just all the eastern euros that are too cheap to pay for the game :-/

Links to CivPlayers are in my sig.
