What's the point in having the pit listed in party finder?

…if absolutely every time I try to join a party it returns “The party is currently locked and cannot be joined. (Code 316756)”. What is this mockery?

Parties as you know only hold 4 people. they fill up fast. Keep refreshing :wink:

you can always create your own group of course.

Let me wink back at you mate saying that I know that and it really does the same even if I click a party started by only one player right the moment refresh ended.

The issue is also that parties aren’t delisted once they fill up to 4, and then someone disbands from it. Meaning if you have a full party just created, you run a Pit, some one leaves, people will see that party listed again. Someone joins immediately, but it’s still listed if you just got into the party finder, and you can’t join it.

The system needs a small tweak.

yea it should just delist it. not a big deal to just list it again if need be.

When this error is displayed, it means the party is currently in a pit encounter. It does not necessarily mean the party is full with 4 players. You cannot join a pit encounter once the party has started it, only before or after it is finished.

I must say I didn’t think about that, and yeah it makes sense, still there’s room for improvement in this, some sort of pause on listing that party until they’re out of the pit and ready to receive another player. Probably such insignificant details can pass as good to go when they’re about to launch a game, or who knows, even 6 seasons and forever after as long as they received their money for it.
