Here is my advice:
Join our Discord group and do a test game. Then you will have a Vet to walk you through it. Once you have been shown how, it will be easier to set it up with your friend. (Discord is a sort of Instant Messaging app that we use to communicate.) Getting Started with Discordâ„¢
Use this invite link to join DIscord: https://discord.gg/H7vrytU <--- this may be all you need!
Then once you have joined, if you need it, use this link to see our group... https://discordapp.com/channels/@me/279827632479141889
Now:
1. Click the "NHL94" logo in the left column.
2. Next, click "#general" under "TEXT CHANNELS"...
3. Now type "Can someone play me!!", or "Exis"... someone will help out soon enough....
Tip 1: "Exis" are what we call our pick up games...
Tip 2: Play some exis with a vet for a few days, get really good, then trounce your friend without telling him how you got so good
