[2020] CO-OP / MMO needs to be looked at

With all these co-op changes happening almost all the time I'm still wondering why I can't be with my friends on the same layer in game.

My friend and I were both hanging out in SaiPark trying to hunt Luma Oceara, but we did it seperately to increase our odds however the game puts you into a different layer, and I don't get that. What is the point of MMO if I can't see the people I wanna see that are there..

It seems like after every encounter you get put into a different layer with different players in there which makes no sense. During the first week when you ended the co-op you'd still be in the same layer but with the recent changes it puts you into a different one instantly.

So everytime my friends wanna show me a new tem following them around I have to start the co-op to be put into the same layer to see their tem. Which makes this feel more like a single player game because the moment I disband the co-op party I'm put in a different layer with random people.

I would like to see a change where you'd be in put in the same layer after each encounter and/or exiting co-op so you can still your friends, to atleast make us feel like we're together.
