must have mandatory join in progress

[Souljacker]

Force "join in progress" on people, and people will stop using the DF and DR completely.

I don't select "join in progress" because I DO NOT WANT to join at a random point of the dungeon.

I don't believe it for a second. Every other mmo on the planet filters you into dungeons based on what is needed, not whether or not you personally feel like a fresh run. Duty roulette is just that, a roulette (like "random" dungeons).The tool picks, not you. SE trying to reinvent the wheel by allowing people to choose whether they can be filtered into a partially complete run or not has done nothing but cause groups to have to disband because of lack of members, driving queue times up as those people reenter the queue to start over again. You are voting against your own best interests with a comment like that.

All these growing pains have already been done in other mmos. Every single one has been addressed in "that other game". I guarantee in 6 months or less SE is going to come to the same conclusions. Duty finder will filter people based on need, you'll still get your bonus if you are filtered into a 3/4 run, and no one will be able to see where the group is at and withdraw. You will still get a guaranteed "fresh" run if you pick a specific dungeon, and queue times will decrease as people are completing content instead of having to re-enter the queue prematurely.

As far as the OP, that's kind of what I started doing - not using that check box at all. After my 6th queue in a row into an empty Stone Vigil I just gave up. It was nice of them to give us choice, but it causes too many actual problems with completing content and that's why other games don't do it.

As I mentioned previously, the devs changed this because people (chiefly tanks and healers) were queuing and withdrawing in order to get a 2/3 or 3/4 instance for quick tomes.

They managed to hide progress for CT, I'm sure they can do it again.
This is not the answer, since it created more problems.

They didn't even hide progress that well. People just fished for 0/1 instead of fresh run.

I've always found it insane just how little priority is given to in progress groups. It seems at the moment that if somebody leaves a party mid run, its game over, you will very rarely (read: never, it seems) get replacements.

Given the roulette system, I think building in in progress runs would do more benefit than harm.

We don't seem to have the same experience.
I almost always find replacement. Earlier in AK, got a healer after 3 minutes.
In cutter's cry, a tank in 10 minutes.

must have mandatory join in progress ...

Recently I have switched my GC and started over the GC hunting log.
There are some mobs could only be found at the beginning of the dungeon,
therefore "mandatory join in progrss" will cause issue in this situation.
