Party Options
Same Team:
Same Team
Play4Dead can guarantee a party size of 2 or 3 players can all play together on the same team by choosing server's that have enough additional free slots to support party members switching teams after connecting if necessary.
For example, a party size of 2 joining a Versus server with 6/8 players may not have enough space on either team for both players to play together (3 players may be on survivors, with 3 on infected).
A server however with at least 3 slots free (5/8 players) must have two player slots free on one of the teams.
When this option is selected, only servers that have enough free slots to guarantee all party members can play together are chosen, at the cost of possibly joining a less populated server.
This option is ignored if the game mode chosen is single-team based (such as Co-Op) or the party size prevents every member being able to play on the same team.
