Contrary to popular belief, both of those do not affect your chances of getting in whatsoever. We invite only off the official UX gamertags, and try to invite people already online GTA4 first. We do NOT single anyone out based on whether or not they may be "annoying", or that we "don't remember them".

Just follow the information outlined in the corresponding event topic (in this case, the zombie one), and you should get in.

Ehh.... I'm not so sure about that. Thing is, since everyone in the Cop Wars game was planning on going to the zombies night (WestHybrid was also in the Cop Wars game, so when he told us he was going to go start the lobby, we pretty much knew when it was going down precisely), we all got invites, along with all the tags. Since we happened to be on GTAIV and in a game, we all got into the game first. And he may have meant by "remember" that the host will remember "Oh yeah, this guy was in Cop Wars twenty seconds ago, he's ready to go". Obviously they wouldn't really be able to forget anyone, since we're all on the tags.

I'm not saying that getting on Cop Wars gives you a better chance of getting in, but being in a game in the first place means you're able to join after an invite much quicker than others.

Easiest way to get in a UX hosted game. Know the staff team by joining their parties. When ever I am online during an event, I get swarmed by invites because I am well received by the staff. I'm not even on any of the tags.

This should not be happening. You need to friend a tag, and stay on its list; we only invite players via the tags, not messages or personal requests, to ensure an equal chance of any registered user getting in.

Make sure you have a tag friended by next week.

You are all giving terrible and incorrect information.

Eaustinn is right.

being on gta increases your chances...not being in one of your games

It's not one of my games, it's one of the games in the host's immediate memory, and everybody who was there last zombie night got into the zombie lobby immediately (before anybody else who might have been on GTAIV).

And I'm saying being in a multiplayer game makes you get in faster, not being specifically in a community game. The load time between switching from a random free roam to the zombies lobby is significantly shorter for me than the load time between switching from story mode to the zombies lobby.

So basically, if you're in a multiplayer game of GTAIV, any game, it'll load faster and you'll get into the lobby quicker.

You were the one who removed me from the tag for christ sake.

Where you offline for a long or extended period of time? Were you inactive with all UX activity for awhile?

People are regularly cleared for inactivity, to make space for people who want to get in our games now. If you wish to partake in an UX game, but was deleted off a tag awhile ago for inactivity, then just simply re-add it.
