Event would have been 100x more fun if I could have STAYED in a group with my husband and done it. Instead, we were each with a different team and could not see each other, so we just slogged through it to complete the meta and haven’t gone back since. Don’t plan to, either.

Has anyone tried Toypocalypse recently? It seems that due to timers, the matches DON’T end after the waves of toys are complete, and the match timer keeps counting down. If the objective of the match is complete, why is it that the match “keeps going”? I tried multiple times to get into a new match and each time found that the match was over, and the timers were all still at 20 mins. or so… and after the timer is complete, it kicks you out and resets, so even if you’re willing to wait around the 20 mins. or so, you’re not guaranteed to get back into the match map that you were in to begin with… UGH!!! ANet, please fix this… it makes getting the meta-achievement VERY difficult.

Or, at the very least, extremely annoying.

Refer to this post. https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Toypocalypse-bugged/first#post4630104. It’s a bug in the already-contentious system.

They still won’t fix the fact that we can’t join with our friends.

And I doubt they’ll even fix the problem that we’re joining an in-progress game.

I don’t want activities to be hot-join and dump me in an instance that I can’t start from the beginning.

This change was not needed! I joined over 10 games, and all of them were at the end. I want to duo this with my boyfriend like I did last year, but instead… I’m stuck with 4 other people, who I don’t know. They are not even fun to play with because they’re all quiet and it’s just not fun.

- Either bring back party system or at least close map after it’s been done so people don’t keep it open and cause players to join maps that are already over.

Actually this seems weird, more like a bug. Looking at those achievements, most are very easy to complete. And a handful take very long? Weird.

The strength of heart to face oneself has been made manifest. The persona Carighan has appeared.

Did someone say they said they weren’t fixing it?
I wonder what their reasoning is there.

Did not a single person jump into these wintersday activities to make sure they worked before you rereleased them this year?

Between testing and live, things break and bug out. Happens in any game regardless of how much testing you do. MMO’s are extremely hard to prevent bugs happening in.

However, patch notes say it should be fixed now, which is great

We do take on board that this change is not to everyone’s liking, but the change was required and not optional.
