changedAt the same time, to improve the game balance and prevent toxicity, we are addressing the Community voice after a record-breaking in-game questionnaire, in which 89% of active players agreed to the implementation of a cooldown on logging into different nations accounts from the same PC.

addedParty Finder:Players who want to create a party can do it in a new way, using a dedicated button in the socials tab. During creation, we will be able to name it, provide information about the goal of the group, choose the party type, and mark if the number of players in the party should be public or not.

addedParty Finder:All the systems that allow you to create parties in the old way by inviting players by /request command or right-clicking on them are staying in the game, but you will be able to add parties created in those ways to the lobby list too!

changedParty Finder:From now on it will be much easier to know that something is going nearby and you can join the fight or event, players will not need to plead on the chat to find a group or request help. It will be much easier and convenient to find something to do in the game and be more united in the common conquest.

changedParty Finder:The minimap received a dedicated button, which will be showing the number of active parties in the area. Clicking the button or proper shortcut on the keyboard will open the socials tab with the lobby and friends list.

addedParty Finder:We hope you will find the new system helpful and it will be a great tool to share and improve your game experience with others. Please note that the system will be polished and iterated because there are still some parts of it that need to be polished and implemented. For example, when players will be in a nearby location where an event is ongoing or players who are participating in the same quest or event, they will receive a suggestion to join or request access to the biggest open party around or be encouraged to group up.

We are delighted to introduce a feature we were working on for the last few weeks. Desired by many, helpful to everyone – Party Finder is finally implemented! From now on it will be much easier to find game content suitable for you, and group up to take part in the common activities or global conquest. That great addition to the game allows you to create and manage your party and friends list a lot easier, as well as increases the activity of players in all aspects of the game.

At the same time, to improve the game balance and prevent toxicity, we are addressing the Community voice after a record-breaking in-game questionnaire, in which 89% of active players agreed to the implementation of a cooldown on logging into different nations accounts from the same PC.

Additionally, we are improving our automated moderation systems, and delivering a lot of Quality of life changes and fixes, thanks to our precious Community feedback, reports, and suggestions!
