Rejoice, PVP Roulette.

Now we will be able to instantly queue all week.

(2.5)

hum?........

It was in the live letter earlier this morning. Specifically mentioned Frontlines as a Roulette in 2.5

It's something that I was asking for, and hopefully the bonuses and increased visibility (since everyone looks at roulettes) will lead to fast queues like you said.

There is a fine line between deciding whats more important. More chances at playing or a better chance at winning. I guess at the end of the day if your a player that cares more about his win/loss score and his pvp rank standing this might suck. if you care more about actually getting to pvp then this could very well be a bonus.

That is the real only bonus. However, I remember the Nexus light stigma when people were running it for their lights when it was the bonus light for a couple hours. Queues were faster, yes, but there was a distinct lack of teamwork during those bonuses.

Won't be the case if the roulette's bonus only increases Wolf marks and PvP EXP. If they decide to throw more poetics and soldiery into the mix, yep, scrub city {Please look forward to it.}

Yeah, i think it will only give marks and pvp exp as bonus wich is nice.

The roulette is accompanied with, it sounds like, new game modes (but same map), I wonder if it just influences which type of game you fall into. And so the wait due to GC locked queuing would still be there, same as how now there are different waits for a DPS vs. Healer/Tank in regular Roulettes.

How much you should look forwards to it might depend on your GC's queues. If GC-based queuing isn't changing- and so they can't drop is into whichever team needs people the most- the only way for this to be a roulette I can think of is with the introduction of new game modes.

(And I still believe Nexus farming bonuses have NO place here. It's not fair to people who care about winning, or anything but themselves.)
