Guild Wars 2

I was so happy when I first played Toypocalypse and Snowball Mayhem! That I immediately went calling for my friend to play with me..

It’s simply impossible for us to play together a game that we both love.
Why not a Join In feature? or Party request.

My guild mates say “If you play an mmo, anet think automatically that you have no friends to play with”

Thank you

I second this. It was the same at hallowen. It would be really fun if future events had so you could join as a group or something in these.

I understand that the pvp games like Snowball Mayhem and similar game from Halloween need to be random parties in order to keep things balanced. That or have seperate arenas for random players and formed parties. But Toypocalypse, and to lesser extent the Bell Choir, are treated as pvp for no reason. Bell Choir is competitive but are you not directly against another player. Toypocalypse is just flat out pve content vs pve foes, but set in a pvp arena. Not being able to do Toypocalypse with my friends put off any desire to participate in that part of the event.

I didn’t like the no pre-group for toypoc ether. People are just abandoning their group when they get what they want and then your left with who ever gets thrown in with you pretty much working just like a revolving door of players.

This has already been discussed in detail with a response from the devs.
