Mission Selection: Team in Zone

I've noticed since I13 landed that for what appears to be the large majority of missions, the entire team needs to be in the zone before it can be selected.

I also noticed there wasn't an area to post feedback on this "feature" but I have to say I loathe, loathe, hate, detest it. It's a pain in the proverbials and seems to be for the sake of 2 faction specific contacts in one co-op zone.

It's a pain, immensely annoying and I'm not even remotely convinced that the benefit of content addition outweighs the pain factor.

I suppose it's too late to hope for any feature change, and I'm sure there's no easy fix, but it's clunky and horrid.

Well that's good to know... I'd not seen that but some of the bugs are proving stubborn to remove to say the least

It only affects missions which are available in Ouroboros (mission arcs mainly), and is an unfortunate side effect of some code added to stop people teaming with villains when villains aren't in the co-op zone. Hopefully they'll fix it before too long as it's REALLY irritating...

Do not go gentle into that good night.

Okay that was really naive of me but when i saw this "bug" i thought it was intentional. Devs way to stop filling invites.

There are easy ways around it... just select the mission, then invite people.
The current team numbers are used to populatw a spawn as a teammember comes into range.

If you have nothing useful to say, you have two choices: Say something useless or stay quiet.

Those pesky villains!
Forming teams outside the co-op zones, when will they learn that CoV is a solo game?

Yip, is an annoying bug that has crept in. Would be good to have it back working the way it used to.

Pick mission, no matter where your team mates are.

It's especially annoying when you want to use the mission TP to get to the zone. I've quit a team and got them to select the mission before inviting me again so I can get there quickly.
