We can't join our friends servers when they have a full squad/party, this is a big issue for us, it goes in to queue and when it's ready to load it start over, and there is a bug when trying to change squad in game, and can't select the squad We prefer to be on, that's some game killing issues
I agree with that
Squad management while in the server is non existent.
Joining friends have been Achilles' heel in BFV too but in 2042 is even worse and almost impossible except for when you are in the lobby and let 3 other friends join before matchmaking starts..
to make things worse I have lots of friends so we can't play together or I'm left alone and forced to play solo 😢
hopefully it gets some traction and be fixed asap
Agreed. I think a lot has to do with no server browser. They really need to increase the party size to allow for multiple squads of friends to be together.
I think a 6 man squad would be better and a party size of maybe 8 so atleast 8 friends can play in the same server together.
And the server browser issue is a big problem
And would atleast make larger groups able to join or que for the same server.
What they need to do is allow you to select what squad you change into, but their entire UI from lack of scoreboard, to lack of squad member preview box on redeploy map, lack of a lot of basic functions from older games really, seems to be what is hindering progress here.
Agreed. I really don't get their thinking behind of parties and squads.
Surely the smart thing to do would be to have the party limit unlimited or set to, say 32, and the squads as they are. Then ensure ALL party members can all join the same server, putting them into as many squads as necessary.
The only way to play with, say 6 people, is for the party of 4 to join a server, one leaves the party AND the squad but stays on the server, starts a new squad (which is broken too, since there's no option to CREATE a squad - it always sticks you in another squad with people and it's often full) and invites the other two players.
Even this doesn't work after the game ends. Both squads then end up on different servers next game.
omg, this is so important problem, why nobody cares ? Its more important than any other rare bugs which get more points
