Party system not working

Hello,

I’m trying to make a party to get the new 25 party battles achievement but the system is just not working.
I can’t join someone elses party, i tried inviting an in game friend, a kingdom member. None are working.

I’ve tried on ps4 and ps5.

Please look into this

Addition:
No error message, when pressing join party in a public party nothing happens. When you accept an invite through psn, nothing happens. No error codes

Are you able to start your own Party and play, or does that also not work? @Corposjuh
Also, is it only in a specific battle type (skirmish or dungeon) or a particular location (Story or Season)

Just double checking if it’s the joining and inviting part that’s the issue, or all of it for SONY

Im also getting issues. When I try to join a party i get:

Error
You are not allowed in this party.

I can create my own party and complete a battle on my own but this does not count towards the trophy.

HELP!

Is that for every Party? Or only some Parties that are in Season locations?

I think its for all.

Currently as I am typing i searched for parties. Three public parties came up. I tried to access all three but get the same message for all of them

If you create a party, can you invite people and play as normal?

No one seems to join my party.

I have managed to get into some parties now. If i repeatedly request to join say 7 or 8 times it lets me join

This has been the case from the very beginning, seems like it never really got investigated, party mode is so unreliable, works when it wants and other times nothing and qe all give up

“You are not allowed in a parry” this is normally as the group is in a battle, u need to keep trying

There seems to be a difference between party mode being unstable across all platforms, and if people cannot get into a Party, because it’s unresponsive.
Unless of course the Party is actively within a battle, in which case you cannot join

@Lighty691 are you playing on SONY or a different device/platform?

The ongoing issues with party mode being generally unstable are always being investigated. Which is why it remains on our known issues list.

If you are getting that message, can you confirm they are trying to enter a party that has space, and is not within a battle already, also ideally not with anyone you have blocked?

Also, if you are just finding it is totally unresponsive, trying to join, accepting an invite etc, please let me know.

One work around for party if say persons A and B cannot join each other’s party. You try to get a person C to make the party and have A and B join it. Leadership can then be transferred and even if person C now leaves, the party should be stable.

I can start my own party and play yes, I tried it to see if it counts. I chose the main story first chapter skirmish to make sure everyone could join

Update:
When I started the game today I couldn’t join or even create a party.
Restarted the game, created a party and after a few minutes people were able to join and I completed the 25 battles

Just as a precaution, have you cleared your console cache and resinstalled PQ3?
