Hello Friends!
Today my pal and I attempted to return to the multiplayer game that we've been doing weekly / monthly for about a year now. He received the, "joining failed can't join this game right now." I found this thread, so we backed up to a save in a safe area and started from there.
We're at the end of the game, just about to encounter the Nether Brain. Going back to a safe save took us to the Morphic Pool. I think everything is red-zone after that. After playing for a while, we decided to test by having him leave and see if he could join again. He could not.
At this point, we didn't have the five to eight hours that we estimated it might take to play through without an option to save in a safe zone, for the next game.
My question: "Do we know if this is a new feature or a bug?"
He and I thought it might be a patch to increase the difficulty of the bigger battles. This thread, on the other hand, makes it sound like we should be able to save in a red zone and then reload and restart our multiplayer game.
While in a redzone, your game is not joinable. You need to gather your party before advancing beyond the Morphic Pool.
