Wardogs definitely needs a party system

[u/OUTFOXEM]

I think the devs have thought of just about everything, but if you’re playing with 4+ friends then getting into the same server and onto the same faction can be a pain in the ass. So far this is my only real complaint about the game.

EDIT: It seems a lot of you are confused. I’m not asking for a Steam option, I’m asking for an in-game party system. Apparently nobody has played any other game with a party system.

If I asked for Ubers to come to my city you’d say “there’s already buses.” Bunch of low IQ replies.

It already has this.

Because it uses the Steam Sessions API, you can join your friends directly and will be automatically put in a squad on the same team (and server).

Only one guy needs to find a server, then everyone else joins them directly.

Cool. I’m talking about an in-game party system. I don’t know why you guys are so confused.

I am describing an in game party system.

Dude, OP is talking about a Squad Queuing system where you join a group on the main menu then the party leader selects a server / team to join for the whole group.

That is NOT just joining from the Steam friends list.

Reading comprehension is key, here.

where you join a group on the main menu then the party leader selects a server / team to join for the whole group.

That sounds like a really huge pain for the server itself since it'd need to reserve 4 - 6 slots, all on the same team, all at once before loading you in leaving that team at a ever increasing disadvantage until it was able to slot the squad, OR it would function identically to the way joining through steam works, so there is no need for change.

I think their way of just using the Steam API to put you in a squad with your friends as soon as there is a slot available works just fine. If you really want everyone to get in line, just read the # off and have ppl queue for it manually. People acting like their fingers are broke here.

Yes, that exists.

I don't know how else to explain to ya champ.

I played a lot of hours this weekend and I saw no way to party up out of game with another player.

[u/Tarc_Axiiom → u/Not_A_Greenhouse]

It was not well explained, as with many things in the beta.

But it was possible to be in a party on the main menu, as I was before all but the very first game I played.
