Nice change

https://i.ibb.co/xX85g4h/Captura4.png

Just a little longer...

They should make a frontlines option that requires 24 people instead of 72 people. Would help make the que's pop faster....especially in the off peak hours. Hmm.

No one's going to do pvp with all the other new stuff out at the moment.

I don't know, I saw more people at the Wolves' Den looking at the new PvP gear today than I've ever seen there. Certainly people want to get some of it, I know I do.

>queueing for pvp on a weekday during the time most NA people are working or at school, on the release of a patch that added major new pve content and expecting to have short queues.

A lot of the people i know who wanted the new stuff capped on wolf marks before the patch drop so they could buy it asap.

Well, I was there looking because I didn't cap my Wolf Marks, so I'm sure there were others there in a similar situation, unless you know something I don't.

Hey, man, no need to get so snippy. All I know is that not everyone in wolves den is there to queue for PvP. Some are there just to buy today. Theyll queue later when they want other stuff, I'm sure.

OP is on a European data center.

I have never waited 5 hours before. Never. Today I did, and it was INFURIATING. Bring back 24-man!

Ya the new content has jack to do with this.
There is new glams for PVP too.

Real question is what happens when everyone caps out wolf marks in only a week or 2 (Really, just 1 day) and never ques PVP again?
STUPID MOVE SE. STUPID

https://i.imgur.com/UsBiBQq.png I know what you mean, this is the result of the STUPID 72 player only rule that is ruining FL for all the morning players. My record on this was over 300 minutes :). IE: Don't bother before 11am.

Interesting, how come after 11am I can queue generally from 3 - 8 minutes? Seems like plenty of people are doing it to me... just with the lower amount of players during the morning... you can't form a 72 person group for nothing. BTW: Prior to this, I could get a 24 person group within 10 - 20 minutes, even at 5am on any day of the week. Even on the slowest days it could take maybe 30 min at most and just so you know, not everyone can play at prime time. Basically, I get to play very little pvp and it is my favorite aspect of this game. I am posting with fury to get more people involved on this issue because I know it can't just be me that is angry about this change.

3 hours in queue now.

I mostly play around 3am to 6 am and with the current change I can only pvp on the weekends. Not sure how anyone can defend this change.

Its sad to say but there wont be any early matches anymore and i fear that as soon as everybody got their new glamours the queue wont open until evening hours. I really hope Squeenix reconsiders this change.

This has been my experience as well on US servers. Early morning and late night queues are taking over a hour if they ever get to pop. I used to get 24 player pops on off peak hours in about 15-30min.

Everything settled down a little i have queues under 5 mins so.

Normal for me in the morning, really I don't know why I bother to queue at all... maybe a small hope inside? Who knows... this is nothing compared to my normal 350 minutes+ IE: from 5:30am when I wake up until 10:15 - 11am. Waste of time honestly. FL doesn't exist before 10am now. Not at all.

Yeah, I was enjoying the early morning 24-man pvp matches when I was grinding my Garo mounts and was sad to see those go. They really should re-balance the map layouts and switch to 24/30-man only IMO.

Waited 200 minutes.

Waited another 200 minutes.

It's constant 7~8h of wait time in nights. If this is fine by sqex standards, well... sigh.

Let's drive the point to the extreme - by posting your wait times.

I'm watching Brian play on Aether atm and he's getting easy matches.

Just wait for the new PVP map to come out that is gonna bring alot more players to PVP including me.

Hopefully they will consider to bring back Feast Seasons in the future aswell to make PVP more alive and competitive again. :cool:

Well, that screencap is from like 7hrs ago. I'd just like a game - any game - during inactive times of NA. One 24ppl game after 20mins of wait was pretty fine for me, but it simply isn't happening now.

Waited 59 minutes for frontline here and i left the queue, no game at all.
I queued at 22 o clock...

I used to que up just for the daily wolf marks to get the healer set and bonus exp. Will not que for it any other than that since I already have my healer set from it. Been trying to play catch up with all the past content, beast tribes, crafting, gathering. Ohh the list goes onnnn

5.11 and the restoration has finished off PvP entirely on my data center (crystal). I basically don't get matches anymore, I usually queue for 500+ minutes in the mornings, used to be about 10 - 20 min for 24. Now there just simply isn't anything to queue for... even after the 72 man change, I'd get in two to four matches at least before I go for lunch at 1pm. Since 5.11, it's absolutely a goose egg, zero. Someone should get a SS of a 1000+ min queue and post it on the bug forum lol. My pvp is broken hahaha. This just proves how little SE cares about PvP. I'm literally about to give up on PvP all together. I'm hearing though that people can't even get a queue at prime time now, so I guess it's really almost finished. I doubt adding one FL match with revive PvP for more than a week, pretty sad what's happened... not to mention other changes non-pvp related. They just want a game so easy it plays itself. Companies too eager to appeal to the masses always eventually destroy their own once rich and rewarding products.

PvP is dead, just leave it alone already. The only thing that artificially kept it alive was new armors, so ppl queued to AFK-farm wolf marks.
