Hello ntw community, i have returned to the game after a long absence and am wondering how the community communicates and arranges battles on steam? i see that you can join groups but even if i join a group with lots of players i seem to be the only one in chat?!

Aside from that anyone i will know playing and maybe want to teach me the ropes? i havent even touched single player yet and just played 1 mp game which i did win but my opponent seemed abit well sheepish ;)
