This is kind of annoying. Today i was queue up for weepingcity. And i got the pop up atleast 10 times during 30 min of waiting to get in. At the same time i had to get rdy for work in 2 hour so i had time. If people queue for something then COMMENCE IT. I dont give a darn thing that you have to to other stuff. Think atleast 2-3 times in ur tiny brain before queue up for something..*rant*.ur wasting MY and other players time and gaming experience. Just stop pls. :)

Ah, reminds me of the good old days when it would take like 20-30 pops for CT (LotA) to finally get a full group up and ready.
I would spend like 90 minutes in those queues constantly popping and re-queuing. -

Sometimes it's unavoidable. I've missed a queue due to zoning into Idyleshire once or twice due to its lengthy load time.

It's incredibly annoying, but it happens in all group content. Usually the timer runs out, meaning someone missed it, not just changed their mind. And to be fair, I'd much rather get put back in line to get someone who's actually at their computer than start with AFK members.
But yeah, I think we've all raged a little at that one dps that can never click the damn accept! -

How about they just adjust how a withdrawal is handled?
If 2 dps don't click commence and there are at least 2 dps sitting still in line, give those 2 dps a 45 second popup window. The other 22 people don't need to get a fail message and click accept again. If there aren't enough people to fill the roles that withdrew, then handle it the way they currently do. -

I think that 45s is just way too short considering 1m30s loading times in this game. For short queues I basically sit in the same zone so I don't miss it, but for long queues you'll be wasting your time if you can't go into a loading screen.
IMO, they should increase it to 2m, then you can load, take a bio break, and still not miss it, and overall it's not that much of a difference. -

What I wish is that if you're in a cutscene it would just skip you and place you back in queue next in line.
I hate having to choose between watching a cutscene and commencing a duty. -

This queue system is hands-down the worst I've ever seen in any mmo, ever. It's interesting to me that they manage to do level syncing yet can't figure out how to set up the tool to allow us to queue for multiple jobs at once. You can't have your chocobo out while waiting for a duty, either. I could write out a list probably ten to fifteen items long with all my grievances regarding this duty finder tool.Quote:

What I find most annoying is how the system is handling situation when one person withdraws. Let's say I queue for CT. I mark all 3 raids (as everybody else). Queue for LoA pops up (6 tanks, 6 healers, 12 dps). 23 people confirm, one withdraw. It is canceled and system dismantles whole raid and places every person to different raid. Why for the love of god those 23 people are not placed again in the same raid and just find one other guy??? Same way you replace members when you are already inside! This way every single time you have to find new combination of 24 people. But you already had full raid and you can only replace ONE GUY?! This is for me hands down the MOST ANNOYING thing. :mad:

07-01-2016, 11:13 PMNeophyteBecause one dps not accepting might cause a whole group to drop out of DF. If you're queuing with friends and you're afk or stucked in loading screen, they have to queue manually again.Quote:

E.G. it's possible to allocate 12 of the 16 left players to five different queues to fill them up,.
Leaving 4 players waiting for fill up or to be distributed to a fuller queue.
So less waiting for 120 ppl, while four sad ones have to wait longer.
I don't say that it works this way, just showing that the system can be more complixated than expected. -

Relative to queue times and how long a dungeon is, waiting up to 1m15s longer won't be a huge difference.
You'd need to experiment a bit to see if it does increase the accept-rate significantly enough to be worth it.
