There is currently no way to know how the host set up a multiplayer game, e.g. difficulty, combat randomizing and elite units on or off. This would be good to know when deciding what game to join.

Please add this somewhere, maybe make the player images smaller and put some text description about the game settings down in that area.

How does the game difficulty setting affect a multiplayer game?

And, there is a player profile button, but there is no way to edit your profile. Is this an upcoming feature?

Surely there is? If you select a game and select "join" it displays the settings in the bottom left side of the panel. Until you press "confirm" you will not actualy be part of the game, so if you don't like the settings you can click the cancel button.

Oh. I didn't want to select Join. I was unaware there was still a confirm after that. Good to know. Thanks!
