We need Zones for LFG
Maybe get for HoT but we dont need it for every map.
Well, we could have a Bosses tab. A HoT Open World tab. A Central Tyria Open World Tab
That would cover the majority of bases.
I agree with the OP that the Open World Content section of the LFG window needs some organisation. As it stands, with Halloween and the new HoT content, I open my LFG window to Open World Content and its flooded with at least 40+ lfg’s, ranging from Labyrinth and Ascent into Madness; to SW and, less frequently, Dry Top; Verdant Brink, Tarir and the odd Tangled Depths, or Dragons Stand; the odd story achieve and even the frequent (wrongly placed) Fractal run. It’s very overwhelming and kitten near impossible to find the team/map you want.
I propose it gets broken up into the following:
Central Tyria
Maguuma Wastes
Magus Falls/Heart of Thorns
At the very least these 3, maybe even one more tab for Living Story and/or Holiday Events.
This would tidy it up nicely.
How about by regions. Ascalon, Kryta, Maguuma, Shiverpeaks….
why not just 1 tap for the current map you are in?
If they were to implement this, I wouldnt recomend putting alot of taps, this would make lfg more confussing to new players than it already is.
I don’t think LFG is that confusing, and it would only take 5s for someone to explain it to a newbie, even with breaking the open world content into 3-4 more tabs. Filtering for the map you’re in would be a lot of coding. Would be a lot easier to just add 3 or 4 tabs. It’s really not that hard to figure out “Ok, I am doing living world content, and I am in silver wastes, which is part of the maguuma wastes” for example. As long as the fact that SW/DT are clearly identified as magguma wastes, the rest is obvious.

Another argument for the tabs rather than auto-selecting the zone you’re in is that you may want to organise your party elsewhere, for example LA, before travelling to your desired zone.
With dungeons and possibly fractals dead, this does make a lot of sense. Most LFGs are open world now, so it’s a mess.
I also agree with the OP, LFG needs some love. It hasn’t received any in a long long time.
Everything is inside Open World, even some dungeons and fractals can STILL be seen there just adding to the whole mess.
Maybe some kind of a tag system? People could submit tags and then you could add it to your lfg. If you search for something in LFG you can select the desired tags.
I was shocked that the HOT zones did not have their own section. I want to catch a HP train whenever but that is next to impossible if I need to scroll through all the central Tyria ones.
“Magus Falls” / “Central Tyria” at least ?
We need a “Zone” Category for the LFG.
With the new maps looking to organize, holidays, Teq, and even Silverwastes and Dry Top, its a REALLL PAIN to find the right group when you are scrolling down so far to find the right one before it fills up.
Please can we get this category section added?
Have you tried creating your own group for specifically what you want? You complain that the groups fill up faster than you can scroll, so surely you must have considered creating your own group, which would then fill up quickly as well…
I won’t stop because I can’t stop.

If you want to find a for exemple a good Auric Bassin map. You want to join people that taxi in.
Yes you can create a group that ask for a good Auric Bassin map, but almost nobody go through the LFG to taxi people in. Unless you are lucky you may wait for a bit with this method.
And it doesn’t change the fact that Open World need some organization.
At Least Magguma and Central Tyria category.

I agree that a Tyria and Maguuma split would be useful. Dunno why they didn’t think of that.
If there’s a good AB map, for now I just sit with LFG open. Taxis pop up somewhat frequently if there’s a good map, and as taxi groups fill they will pop back up to grab more people until map limit is reached.
