We were not happy when Nadeo changed the lobby from vsk2 style to the concept we have with vsk3. Now that we have used vsk3 for 1.5 years, what is our experience with it?

I think both have advantages. What would an ideal system be?

Well given the Trackmania foyer and VSK3 foyer were almost identical I decided to download the demo copy of Trackmania Sunrise and check out it's foyer.

Sadly none of the common features we have been asking for (especially ability to have a pre-race chat) were included. In fact other than a pleasant revamp of the actual graphics design nothing much had changed ! It is possibly a little more user friendly.

Let's face it any enhancements to VSK will include the Trackmania advancements - which is natural of course, why reinvent the wheel ?

So for me: Pre-race chat with other players is my priority (both those in a game and waiting for a game) - if for no other reason than to tell me what the damn password is !

Actually Trackmania Sunrise is a pretty nice looking product - any petrol heads out should take a look ! While in the Foyer I noticed simply dozens and dozens of online servers so it's no wonder this is Nadeo's flagship product. Hopefully good Trackmania sales will boost effort on VSK :)

Would be nice to see boat type in the lobby so I don't have to click on every race to see what they are racing.

I'd like to be able to see a map of the course without have to join the race.

If Nadeo isn't going to include a chat room in the lobby they should at least set up an "Official" IRC server so people know where to congregate.
