Does no one do call to arms?
I know it has terrible matchmaking and it sucks but I would of thought I'd find someone after like 15 tries

I'm a keyboard mouse guy.
I don't enjoy being abused by Controller Aimbots so no - I don't join R*'s Autopilot Free-For-All for Controller Aimbots Events. There are other much more enjoyable things to do.

Today it's FFFFFFFF every 5 minutes - so the likelihood matchmaking will actually match with everyone crashing to desktop is pretty slim.

Give it a few days - that's a guess.
Nobody knows what's 'causing FFFFFFFF - not even R* apparently.

Call to arms is the horde like mode where you defend a area and the people within from waves of pve enemies.

Yea - the 'Fun' part of pressing a button, locking on to someone and shooting them dead wears out after a while. Maybe if more people weren't crashing to desktop every 2 minutes you might find somebody left to play it.

You do realise this game has a lot of killing right?
And plenty people are able to play right now. The FFFFF crash isn't every 2 minutes thats way over dramatic. If thats why you are being a downer fair play, I've luckily not had crashes that often but if you are being a downer just for the sake of it then take some time to relax.

More and more people have migrated over to unofficial private lobbies which also works with these gamemodes such as Call to Arms, especially due to the error code FFFFFF issue the game now has, which private sessions seem to alleviate from.

So it's most likely people who may be playing Call to Arms, are playing alone or with their friends in private sessions.

The unofficial private sessions can be found in Wulf's post:

it also seems to me that only a few players still play this mode. it only happend two times, that other players joined our session
would be much more fun defending with three or four players

that sounds kind of fun. does it have decent xp? i free aim. so it should be like 30xp per kill right?

sounds kind of chill for xp/loot farm if it has that.

It's double XP/Currency if I'm not mistaken.

Plus you get a voucher for half off select shotguns.

It can get pretty rough later on but yeah it's a pve wave survival mode through and through

Yeah the matchmaking is crummy, I just given up. I hardly find ANY matchmaking events. not sure if its my NAT type or if no one does matchmaking anymore.

FFFFFFFF is due to service overload. The servers are busy, but not with RDO2.

That thread is 3 years old.

R* is putting everyone together in events - no matter what setting you choose.

One, big happy family, eh?

The mode itself could be fun if you could reliably get matched with people, even a group of 3 is enough. But I've always ended up solo, seems like the only way to do it is by posse up first. Solo is really hard to do.

Regardless modes in general could be a lot better but its still decent. I don't care as much about the payout as I do just experiencing the content.
