Hearth secrets themselves are still in game btw to kin your friends and make parties. Once you get close the arrows start to show up as well.
It is not enough. The only way to find your friends is to all start at the same time, party up, and hope you choose the right direction to walk in so you get the party arrows? It's just bad game design that does not help a large majority of the playerbase. This is a multiplayer game that I want to play with multi-ple friends, if I wanted a single player game I'd pick something else.

have you done this yourself or did you hear the tales from some of the most fortunate players where the rest of the players waste 6-10 hours and still fail on locating their friends even when they're sending 1 map picture every minute.. :roll:

He got lucky. 2 groups of two out of like 10 people managed to find each other the other but that's about it.

So all players spawn in same small area?

Well it appears to be that way, but no guarantees.

I literally cant comprehend the logic behind this decision. Who decided it was better that nobody be allowed to play with friends?

I think every group is just going through this process of wandering aimlessly, it's getting really boring not being able to settle down, all it will do is cause people to quit.

A game like this is pointless without friends.

I think main reason for this change was to prevent spamming alts.

They should just make the party member indicator arrows show all the time, problem solved.

How to fix this.

1 Character per account.

Both must be verified to use this feature.

30$ for one alternative character, and 15$ for every single other one.

Army of Bots, well i hope that person has 500$ to spare.
