    Default Warfront Queues - Improvements in the works

    Hey guys,

    Myself and the devs wanted to take a second to acknowledge a topic we're all familiar with - Warfront Queue times.

    No details to share yet - but it's something we're actively working on and we're excited to share our plans with you and hear your feedback.

    While I know this will make the wait more unbearable we didn't want to leave you out to dry

    Thanks!

    Come on, tell us something! Are you planning to make the average queue time display show useful numbers? Do we get bots? Do you teleport people by force to the warfront if someone has to wait?

    My queues were under two minutes. Now the last two days, they're over 20 minutes. What changed?

    Jump over this "technical issue" and merge all battlegroups, while you are at it merge some servers, and stop playing tricks with the "Trial Shard"

    Any chance to have group duels (2v2 3v3 5v5) in 1.7? We have 12+ R8s in guild and we kinda have nothing left to do except raids n WFs. Since premades cleary not an option, let us create our own WFs by allowing group duels.

    I think that's exactly what they're doing - putting all shards in one battlegroup.

    I'm on Deepwood and I'm currently in a warfront on my level 26 mage with people form Seastone. That's new, they were not in my battlegroup and were actually one of the reasons I transferred from Seastone a month ago. Queue time was short, on the plus side. So Trion, did you change the server groupings or did you remove them entirely for warfronts? Do tell.

    Default Long queues and short fights

    All i know is that a lot of the time while ranking up, i have 30min+ queues on Briarcliff and then a short fight (and loss) against premades from another server. I agree, what has been changed????

    Whatever the current situation is is not working. We have always Q'd up as a group of 4-5.. Then if we get more people we split into groups of 3 or 4 and Q. Up until the past few weeks its worked fine. Last weekend we try to group Q and wait for 2hrs for a pop.. We split into 3 groups of 2 and we get pops in 10 mins but its always a different warfront. Yet my duo is in a warfront with the 8 exact same defiant premade that is solo Q'ing. We have 2 of us along with 13 random pugs. We tried all sorts of things to try to get our team in there to go against that premade but could never get it to work. So my question is.. how can they be getting 8 into a WF together yet we cant?

    I don't care what they have to do, but this clearly is not working. Not to mention Q'ing as a duo when you have 5-8 people is horse****. I play this game to play as a team with friends. If I wanted to solo I would play Skyrim and not have to deal with idiots and people who don't care about winning the games.

    Unfortunately I am not aware of another better option at the moment for pvp gaming.

    Default Any Improvement would be nice.

    The past several days my queue times have been 90mins +

    Either the Shard I'm on is totally dead or theirs an issue there.

    The "bot" idea might be fun.

    I've been having the same problem, there is obviously something pretty broken. I have friends on the defiant side, both sides were 2 groups of 5 queued for all on the same shard Laethys, 25 minutes later NOTHING.

    Trion is too busy adding the ability for people to get married in the game instead of fixing more important issues, I'm not gonna stop playing because I can't get married in the game, I *will* stop playing for broken pvp queues in addition to broken PvP balance. I already stopped playing for 6 months because Trion did a lot of stupid crap, and now I come back it's even worse... The next time I quit will be for good. Who wants to pay for that crap. Lots of other games with less drama and stupidity in the management areas.

    Weddings? Really? Still don't even have simple first aid bandages like so many other games, even tho the category was in auction forever. **** you trion.

    Are they adding the ability to get divorced too. So your ex can take half your gear.
    Better get her to sign that prenup.
