Duty Finder - Long Ques Even After Patch...

[Brigog]

First and most importantly, you don't understand how the instance servers work.[/b].

1. Do you know my background? Do you know what I have studyed in or have knowledge about? I think not so thats a silly and ignorant on your part.

There's no "making servers into smaller groups"[/b].

You make it so easy to discredit you... Read this link about the 3 smaller server groups now: http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodest...66d5ddfed8ac50

If you're DPS and you don't want to wait for queues: Form your own party manually.

Yet AGAIN someone who doesnt read before they post... I'm a warrior not a dps and having these issues.

Not sure if you saw it, but from that link:

[Increased Number of Instance Worlds]
The Duty Finder and quest instance battles are handled internally in their own separate Worlds. In addition to the above measure of easing server load by splitting the selection pool amongst the above groups, we have also increased the number of instance-related Worlds on which battles occur.
This measure allows the facilitation of more instances, decreasing cases in which players must wait for an instance to become open after they have already been matched by the Duty Finder or the quest instance battle has been initiated.

SE is obviously aware of the issue where people are forced to wait for instance servers to become available and has been taking steps to alleviate the problem. This patch increased the number of instance servers that are available.

The duty finder groups have been split into smaller sections, certainly, but the number of instance servers has increased, not decreased.


I'm going to assume that this is still just part of SE's overall server upgrade, and not the final form of it.

They stated they increased the number of instance servers but reduced the number of server per group thus reducing the number of potential people queing in any give group.

They didn't need to shrink the server group size to increase the instance servers... they simple needed to add more servers.
