Summarize your bug Maybe this is just us, being stupid and unable to figure out how to do it, but we lost the whole evening trying to figure out how to properly play together. So either a very serious bug or just that: us, being stupid. The problem is, that we (12 clan mates) wanted to play on launch day (today -- we all got the Gold or Ultimate editions to not have to deal with the 'delayed access' the standard edition preorder users have to deal with) wanted to enjoy some rounds of Conquest on the new maps. We were unable to figure out how to join a server. We could not create a party with more than 4 users at any one time (but all 12 were visible in the 'SOCIAL' menu). We had this issue in BF5 before, where we had to do the usual 'dance' to join first with only 4 players, then split up in 2-3 squads and then the others could follow. Not ideal to say the least, but it worked. Now in 2042 we are excited to finally get something new, but we wasted one whole evening on figuring out how to do the most basic thing and the one thing that is at the heart of BF: play together with friends. Only 4 could join a server, but we did not find ANY way to spit up and create 2-3 new squads for the others to join. Can someone please tell us how to achieve this? We tried the 'Leave Party' button, which somehow made this menu entry disappear (so it did 'something'), but the player that left the party STILL was in the squad. No new squad was created and other players not yet on the server could still not join on him. So, either it is a bug that it is currently not possible to join the same server (then we hope it gets fixed until the 'delayed access' players are also able to play) or we are too stupid. In the case of the latter, could someone please point out what to do to be able to join an official All-Out Warfare server with 12 players on the same team in 3 different squads?
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just try to join any conquest/breakthrough server with 12 (more than 4 would be enough) players on the same team in 3-4 different squads.
What happens when the bug occurs? Some players are stuck in the main menu and cannot join the server(s). One selects 'Leave Party' and is still locked into one squad.
What should be happening instead? Being able to play together with friends as it is supposed to be working (and was working until this iteration).
