Why can't I play with friends?
well there is one this time you can enter in as a group, I assume the others may present too much of a chance for exploitation or being in a group offer too much of an advantage. just a couple possible reasons.
Well I can imagine that having both team in there be friends only then it can be exploited for easy achievements. But if it works like tPvP does now as in you can make a team yourself but get matched against a random one I see no real exploitation problem.
I geuss what I’m mostly trying to say is that something like aspect arena could have easilly been a team game rather then a hot join.
Southsun survival for instance could be easilly exploited if it were friends, given that’s a free for all.
