Show your queue times!

Because this has just gotten ridiculous once again. Beyond ridiculous, even. For the past ~week, whenever I've not been in a party to sign up for duty with, AWT has been 30m or more than 30m, every single time. DPS or healer doesn't even seem to matter anymore either. I don't know what can be done about this, but something definitely needs to be done. Allow cross-datacenter DFs for example, idk. But yeah... not being able to do what I want, day after day, in such long times is a pain.

So, go ahead. Post your own ridiculous queue times, everyone.

Naturally, I disconnected five minutes later. :P

I would post mine, but its not up long enough on the screen to screenshot it.

oh you really wanna play this game!
Alright, try to beat me!

Edit: Guess why it took me like 4 months from rank 28 to rank 40 :c

You know theres a glitch right?
If you restart the queue, you usually get in.
Theres a weird thing that sometimes people get overlooked, and a match pops without them.
(another way of seeing this is if your in a pvp ls, check your mates location, and you can see others got in)

The trick is to look at the estimated time. It takes a lot of constant popping matches to make the time go down to around 25min.
If you are waiting obscene amounts of time, but the estimated time is low, requeue.

Hehehe, if only.

Seriously, I have a screen-cap somewhere (Too lazy to find it) showing that my "More than 30 minutes" message actually meant eternity... I was approaching one and a half hours... >>

I've heard of that, but I usually have 100min+ for frontlines sometimes 200, so I figured I got 500+ cause no one wanted to pvp that day, I withdrew after 530 minutes because I wanted to do dungeons though.
But how come SE haven't fixed the glitch yet? the game's been out for such a long time and instead of pumping out content they could fix stuff that's broken instead.

Yup someone on this forum alerted me to it, and seems to work.
As for fixing it, you have a point, I really dont know how its still been overlooked. As much as I love pvp here, its always seemed like a "bolt-on" or afterthought to keep pvp minded people.

How does FFXIV's queue times compare to WoW? Do they even have queues?

Don't have any screen at this moment but I can make you one with atleast 2 hours long queue. #Frontlines

Yeah, something is broken when you have to wait more that 30 minutes for something to pop. As a tank. In the evening. And it wasn't for frontlines.

I have not bothered to check the dps queues, I don't want to die. But it might have to do with everyone's current obsession with the damn hunts (really SE, really...).

PVP queues are not based on job(unles its off topic and you mean in general?), you can queue as anything. Thus being able to change job after joining.

80+ mins WoD on Sunday =_=

Yes they have queues. I think since the start of the burning crusade ~ the tank and healers of course are instant and dd seems to take a while. I'd say its about the same give or take. Most dd solo level because of this.

Yes, I meant in general, but not kinda off-topic. What I was trying to say is that queues in general are working bad.
