If youre going to "Wait for a friend" at pap... for the love of god... WAIT OUTSIDE... ur mesos arent going to sit there for 10 minutes while you wait for ur bud to come into the map... ffs
can't you just leave and go back in? unless the orb is summoned (which locks the door) just entering doesn't count against your daily run homeboi. no need for any squabbling or e-dick measuring over it, just say lol hi, toss 'em a fame if you can and say gl on the drops before leaving to cc. no harm no foul
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I guess you can do that too, but I've had it glitch in the past where I've gone in and left and it counted as a run even without orb spawned. Theres a whole map before the boss map with no mob spawns, where I assume game designers intended for it to be a pre-boss waiting lobby. Why not just wait there, instead of causing confusion and then when you're ready go in with your partner, go on in?
100% went at it too agro in the initial post, but i feel like its not a BF situation where you have to camp maps either. Theres always open CHs
I mean, obviously I feel you and that sucks, but I don't think that it's reasonable to take fringe cases where a glitch takes place as an influencing factor on the general standard. In rare occurrences like that it's best to just laugh at the situation opposed to letting it bother you or getting irritated at the other person(s) who had no malicious intent and couldn't reasonably anticipate that somebody would get glitched if they entered the map. It's one Pap run out of 730? you get the opportunity to do each year. What are the odds that somebody is waiting inside of the same channel you enter and you glitch leaving to cc? Pretty freaking low, and don't get me wrong, I agree that it sucks and it shouldn't happen, but it's such an isolated incident that you shouldn't let it provoke negative emotions in you. Just remember, nobody goes into these Pap maps thinking "hohoho, hope somebody unknowingly enters behind me and gets glitched trying to cc!!", it's not done with malice and intent is really what matters in situations like these. You enter a pap map that somebody else is in, click on the robot, exit, and change channels. There is nothing confusing about this process broski. It's frankly both more confusing and time consuming when somebody is sitting out front because you don't know if their partner is already inside, or if they intend on using that channel, and then you have to talk to them to get an answer.
True, if thats the norm to wait in a pap map, that cant be helped. Thanks for clarification that entering and leaving counting as a run is just a glitch
I'm pretty sure that's the case at least... unless it's changed, or I'm remembering that from old gMS but not our game, or vice versa, but I can't see why that would be a feature (a run counting before the orb is spawned). I know that it definitely counts after the orb has spawned but if my memory serves me right I have left before summoning and was able to re-enter (forgot piece, lol). If anybody is reading this and can either verify or correct me please do so.
