The first places I would check are online forums dedicated to the specific games I was interested in playing. Other than that, I suppose Steam and Facebook are potentially good platforms to meet people online, specifically gamers.
This is quite boring sometimes playing alone in the corner room.
If you are sick of playing games online and looking for online platforms to find gamers like you, with whom you can play, chat and have interactive entertainment.
Then you are in the right place.
After digging a lot through various forums and sites online, I found some platforms or you can say apps that are worth checking out if you are interested in finding gamers online for you.
Every game has a different genre and playing style, so finding the perfect platform was quite time consuming and required a lot of research. The best platform that fit in all the way and offers more flexibility and services is my favourite, listed on 1st.
Here we go.
1. E-Pal - Redefining lifestyle, game
Epal is one of the best platforms that serve all the purposes of Gamers with lot more features as well. This platform has both website and app, you can go with any as per your convenience.
On E-Pal you can play games together.
* 1 on 1 * Coaching * Matching * Team up * Play with Creators There are various games listed like Minecraft, League Of Legends, Call Of Duty, GTA, Apex legends, etc.
When you visit the E-Pal website [ https://www.epal.gg/ ], you will have an option to select any game or service. After that, you can select any E-Pals to play 1 to 1 or with the team.
Apart from gaming life, you can find other services as well, like;
* Watching movies together * Voice chat * Karaoke * Relationship advice * Wakeup/ sleep calls 2. GamerPals On Reddit
This is the subreddit available on the Reddit platform from where you can find players like you. You will have an option to select from the various games listed there.
3. GameTree
This is the new app through which you can find friends for games online in 2021.
This app will take a short quiz and evaluate it as per your entries and will recommend the personalized gamers with the same mindset as yours.
4. GamerLink
GamerLink is another gaming social networking app that connects gamers globally and helps you in finding like-minded gamers of similar skills and playstyle.
You can download it from the play store [ https://gamerlinkapp.com/ ].
5. Gamr2Gamr
This comes with a greater feature that I liked most about is that you can knock on your friend door means if your friend nocks your door and if you have time to play then you can link up with your friends at a convenient time.
This app is embedded with discord that helps you in connecting gamers easily worldwide.
Tons of online platforms available are connecting gamers online but not every platform is up to that mark.
I have listed the top 5 apps or websites from where you can connect with gamers like you, but E-Pal [ https://www.epal.gg/ ] remains on the 1st list because of its features, different services and functionalities.
You could try searching for online discord servers of the games your interested in playing.
Just join those servers, provide verification if necessary, and then drop a message with your IGN anytime you wanna find players to play with. Somebody should hit you up if the discord server is active enough.
they are a lot of forum you can find online where you can chat with people and may be find online friend to play with. example Facebook group. just type the name of the game you like and you will find some group that you can join and play with people who share the same passion like you.
Go into games start talking to people in games I got some of my best gaming buddies by playing payday 2 with random people and they just were cool.
I have two programs for you.
1st is the program Discord [ https://discordapp.com/ ]which a lot of people are connected with. Inside discord, you can speak and communicate with other people over the same game, you just need to find the discord server for whatever game it is you want. I use it a lot when I don’t want to play ranked games solo.
Second is the app GamerLink [ http://gamerlink.gg/ ]
I was shown this app through a YouTuber, and I think it’s fantastic. It really is the perfect app as its purpose is in the name. There is a multitude of games on there, ranging from Heroes of the Storm to Overwatch to even Madden 16 if I remember correctly. It’s also super easy to use.
Hope this helps~
I'm surprised that no one mentioned this, but the most popular place I know of is on Reddit. There's a subreddit called "GamerPals" that is basically exactly what you want. The link below might not be correct, as I'm writing it rather than pasting it:
www.reddit.com/r/GamerPals
But yeah, also the forums for that game. Maybe check Steam forums. Also, there is almost always a Facebook group to be found that will help you out, if you don't mind seeing/showing real names.
My friend and I were talking this week about trying to find some good online gaming communities to be a part of. I thought this process would be a lot easier than it actually was now that I had a gaming platform to connect with the rest of the world (it wasn’t for us at least). It took a lot of digging through forums on numerous sites to find ones that were worth checking out.
One thing that made it so difficult was that there are so many different communities for every genre and playstyle of gaming! It’s awesome, but it also leads to a lot of time-consuming research to find communities of people with similar personalities and gaming preferences.
I figured this would be a good article to write to help direct people to the communities I found to be the most helpful. Some of the resources below are apps you can get on your phone and they literally match you with similar people-almost like tinder but not in a weird way.
Top Sites
Please let me know if you also feel there is anything that needs to be added to this list so other people can also find it more helpful. Also, none of these links are sponsored and I don’t receive a commission for you clicking on these links or using them.
* GamerPals on Reddit: I would say this one is hands down the best site for finding communities of players just like you. I was impressed with how many games were listed on the threads considering I usually stay away from Reddit forum pages. When you see comments like “looking for rad friends to play Car Cry 5 with,” you know you’re in the right place. Most of the threads are super chill individuals looking for specific games to play with people. You can usually tell how serious or relaxed the person is based on what they say they’re interested in. Just scroll through the feeds and do a ctrl F to search for specific games you have to see if any pop up. Can’t forget to mention console gaming and the Nintendo Switch is included with this! * GameTree: This app is a more curated version of the GamerPals thread on Reddit. You input your interests, what games you have, skill level, and a couple of other details. After that, it connects you to a bunch of people that have similar interests and matches with you. This would be especially helpful for games like Overwatch where it pays to know the capabilities of teammates and what roles they’re good at playing. I recommend downloading the desktop version if you have a gaming PC so you can connect and link up with players once they match with you. One of the best functions about this app is that it has built-in tags for people’s skill levels and what classes they tend to play as. You could use this to put together a super cohesive team for games like Battlefield and many more. * Discord: Another app similar to GameTree but this one lets you communicate with people in the same game as you. Since Minecraft doesn’t have an audio chat system like a lot of other games, it comes in really handy if you can’t have friends physically present to play at your house/dorm. It uses a sub-app called TeamSpeak, and your friends can add you to their lobby using something similar to a group code. The Forest and Rust gaming communities greatly appreciate apps like this to talk with teammates since these games naturally pit players against each other. I just downloaded this one so I can connect with some of my Minecraft friends. * Gamr2Gamr: Another one just like Discord except you can bug your friends even when they’re not online. Just kidding, but it does come with a feature that lets you “knock on their door.” If your friend knocks and you have time to play, it’s a great function that lets you link up with friends at convenient times. There’s nothing else I found to be that different compared to Discord. I think the interface is a little simpler than some of the other ones. Ultimately, it strikes a nice blend between finding gamers of similar interest and personality. This app combined with the discord app would make playing with friends you’ve never met before easier than ever. * GameFame: People who play massively multiplayer games will find this one helpful. It helps you find matches for Doom, The Division, Destiny, Overwatch, and many more. The website itself isn’t very helpful in explaining how it works. I can see this one being more useful to people in foreign countries who are trying to find gamers of similar demographics since it matches people based on age, gender, language, and country. I wish it would curate a little bit more but nevertheless, it helps you make it less of a dice roll on who you end up in PVP matches with. * GamerLink App: I really like this one after looking through their site and app features. They do the same thing as Gamr2Gamr and include every platform from Steam, Origin, WiiU, and even BattleSpace. I searched for some reviews on it since I haven’t used this specific one yet. Most people were saying it’s incredibly helpful for them to find people to join their party. It takes a little bit of getting used to the interface and using all of its features but well worth it once you really figure it out. * Using Steam to Find Friends: Some communities are more active on the forum pages than others. The Arma III one is perhaps the most helpful. If you can’t find friends on any of the other sites, I recommend actually leaving a comment and see if anyone responds. A lot of threads on the topic of meetups get lost in all the other conversation for that specific game. Steam gets the most traffic to their forum threads than all these other sites, so it’s more likely that you’ll get someone to respond to your post on here.
Look in forums and gamer websites. Reddit is another possibility.
Most quick online games like mobas match you with other players automatically. You can look at your match review or history to add players there.
Well, there is one i know, and its been out for a while. Its not to boring but rather fun. It doesn't matter you make more friends, you can join the post by searching the type of games you play and leave a message, and cool of all you can sync you Xbox, play station, steam, etc accounts to your profile!
I am talking about Playfire [ https://www.playfire.com/ ]!!
I have got few friends, but i prefer getting friends directly on the console i am playing. Tell me what console you have and i could help more, Thank You :0
