2 hours seriously? anyway you should specify a bit more. I'm going to show my opinion about what I think I understood. You dont want such long waiting times, the problem is the balance between tanks/heals and dps is horrible, but it is something common and it is up to the community to use those roles. What SE can do to reduce this issue would be making the healing and tanking classes more rewarding and attractive (instant duty finder is a great incentive though). And also the choice of only letting 2/4 DD doesn't help.
Party was done in min 30, waiting for start till the min 126, to many time, a day has 24 hours, cant waste 2 just in queue
Pick up a gathering/crafting job. There is stuff you can do while you wait.
I dont like gathering and crafting, its for no live people, i dont have all the day for play, i want to play what i want in the few time i have, not to wait 2 hours
I agree its also very boring very very very easy. Is ANYTHING in this game hard? I make my self WALK most the time because you level so fast. Its like easier and sorry then World of Warcraft. Wheres all the armor and weapons. Why do people get to 50 and all look the same..
Oh so that was it, sorry I am not level 50 so I haven't experienced this issues. If I'm not wrong they have already divided the dungeon servers into 3 groups (each being connected to diferent realms) it seems like it isn't enough.
Assuming your clock top right is "local time" this means you signed up as a DD at 10am on a monday ....... and assuming you're playing on a server with people from your own general area...
Why exactly are you supriced ? You can't expect Square to employ people to play with you on all off-peak hours.
This issue has nothing to do with not being able to find other players, the OP's party was full.
The issue is that the instance server doesn't have the capacity to cope with the number of groups trying to run instances. So even when the group is filled, they can't start an instance because the instance server is full.
It's down to SE's lack of investment in adequate servers as with so many other problems with this game at the moment.
Its an MMO, find a tank or healer you enjoy running with and your que time will increase greatly. I myself tank and know other tanks and heals. We never have issues having to wait for runs.
This isn't a technical issue. You should have posted this on the game play section. Make some friends. Join a free company. Healers and tanks don't use duty finder because we find them full of entitled people and constantly get requests to join parties from within their local server. And yes, I know many of both. The pug is always a dps.
Longest I've had to wait so far was 45 minutes, so I feel your pain, but...
It's actually balanced enough as it is. The problem comes into what classifies as DPS/Tank/Healer. What I hate in other games is how basically you rush a dungeon just by having 3 mages and a healer or 3 tanks and a healer, because they didn't design the dungeon for that configuration.
Prior to level 30, you only have 2 tank classes(Gladiator,Marauder), 5 DPS classes(Arcanist,Archer,Lancer,Pugilist,Thaumaturge) and one healer class (Conjurer), so up to level 30 you're always waiting on a healer (and in fact every time I've played healer, I've had to wait less than a minute... usually two or three DPS drop out before the dungeon launches)
When level 30 is hit, then the Tank is the bottleneck, because now you still only have 2 tank jobs (Paladin,Warrior), 5 DPS jobs (Bard,Black Mage,Dragoon,Monk,Summoner), but now have 2 healer jobs (Scholar,White Mage)
The solution is really quite simple. When the Duty Finder is selected, instead of a single tick-box, allow ticking the boxes for DPS,Healer and Tank if you have those classes/jobs. The game then either draws straws, or evaluates for who is the stronger dps/tank/healer based on gear-adjusted stats. If you don't want to play a role, then you don't tick that box. If that role isn't level adequate, then you can't tick that box.
...And... its so stupid to make ppl waitong for another players for finishing youre own storyline... But i know... more pay less think...
This had me laughing so hard. You honestly are going to say we have no lives for crafting and gathering and/or making gil while you sit and wait for 2 hours for a dungeon? Please... I hope your mother and father are proud of your 'should have been swallowed' existence.
