Last Pirates Lobby — Previews, Host Status and Codes

October update: what to check now

Use Start game → Find Crew to browse open sessions by state, stage and player count, including runs in progress. This October 1 flow supersedes older Quick Join interface descriptions. Friends must use the same Steam branch; the October 6 beta and public branch are not interchangeable.

Read the selection before entering

Section cards now include previews so the crew can see what a selection leads into. The chapter screen was also regrouped after September 10. Compare location, chapter and level context before assuming you are entering the same run as a friend.

Waiting for host is a state, not a verdict

The clearer wording describes a host-dependent step; the patch does not define a universal timeout. Ask whether the host is still in the same lobby and ready to proceed before restarting. Repeated stale status after the host acts belongs in a bug report with both players’ observations.

Copy and join once

Copy feedback is now attached to the code button rather than shown in a window over the text. Read a fresh code from the active lobby if the host recreated the session. A copied confirmation does not prove the network join succeeded.

Find Crew searches public sessions; a direct code or Steam invite is the better comparison for one specific host. Check versions and Steam online state before repeated attempts.
