I just want to play Frontlines...

[Tralaix]

I always wait 20-30m per que. I have talked with other people on my server and that is not the case for them. Even members in my FC who are also in my GC say they never wait more then 10 min. The only difference is our pvp rank. I am 31 and most of my FC friends are 10ish. It is too small of a sample to really get a good read. I know in Wolves Den they try to match equal ranks against each other. This is not the case for Frontlines is it?


What server, GC, wait times does everyone have?

aether datacenter, twin adders, rank 39, instant -5minute queues

The class you queue on affects the speed of your queues.

Also, obviously what time/day you're queuing would also matter...

The time of day does affect it..as for the first..I seriously hope you're joking.

Late on responding here, but I seriously hope you're joking.

If the system didn't take your queued class into account, getting into groups with zero healers would be far far more common than it already is. Also (the one part I can prove) if the game didn't care about your class, your 'average wait time' should be the same for all classes, but if you check, they're generally different.

Just because the system allows you to change classes once you're in, doesn't mean that it doesn't factor it into queue decisions. They know most people aren't going to change classes.

There is no difference for my que time when I queued as Monk, Bard, Archer, and Paladin. It is a delusion if you think it is matters. It is also not first time that there is no healer in the Twin Adders.

So those multiple matches where I'm literally the only healer out of all 3 alliances, those dont count right?

[Sigiria]

Think the main problem is the rank, I'm 30 and I can sometimes wait more than 100mins without anything depending the hour of the day (no matter wich job I tag)

There's not a lot of people around those rank, the matchmaking for the front should be around 10 rank gap, I wouldn't mind playing against rank 40 if I wasn't forced to wait hours to play 2/3 games a day -_-

Does Frontlines match based on rank? I am pretty sure it completely ignores rank. I think the biggest factor is time of day and popularity of your GC.

I think it does, heard a lot of people R40 waiting less than 10min for a match. Game propably try to get a sum for the 3 raid within a 5 rank gap.
So with most of the people in frontline being R40 already it's probably harder to find between rank 25 to 35.

May be wrong though, nothing official being revealed about how the matchmaking work. Just hope SE see an issue here, waiting hours to play a match is not right.
