As you can see in here Games.RealTimeMultiplayer.getSelectOpponentsIntent is getting deprecated and my question is what to use instead to search and pick players. I'm building small 2D multiplayer game and I'm stuck on it. I would like to use newest way to do it. Also if I would have to stay with deprecated one I don't know how to build my own UI for it. Thanks for your help!

You should show your work first – MIRMIX Jul 21 '17 at 15:56

I'm trying to create a room after clicking "Create game" (I'm already signed in). It will open lobby activity with all players listed and with button "Search" - after clicking it I would like to list players that you can send invite to – Jakub Jendryka Jul 21 '17 at 16:05

[Blog post](https://android-developers.googleblog.com/2016/12/games-authentication-adopting-google.html) is quite confusing since main update is that Google+ is no longer integrated and mentioned about using Google Sign-In API for authentication. – Teyam Jul 22 '17 at 13:38

Also, referring to [Adding Real-time Multiplayer Support to Your Android Game](https://developers.google.com/games/services/android/realtimeMultiplayer), `getSelectOpponentsIntent()` method can still be used to launch the default player picker UI in handling [invite players options](https://developers.google.com/games/services/android/realtimeMultiplayer#invite_players_option). Just note that you also have to implement [sign-in in your Android Game](https://developers.google.com/games/services/training/signin). – Teyam Jul 22 '17 at 13:41

The most important part is in the end. It is saying that method I want to use is getting deprecated – Jakub Jendryka Jul 22 '17 at 13:48

@Jakub Jendryka Did you find a solution for that? – dor506 Aug 20 '17 at 05:54
