GOD AWFUL QUEUE TIMES

[Souricette]

The Queues are atrocious and SE needs to do something about it. They can no longer ignore this. We aren't talking about an average of 15 minutes (as it was on my datacenter pre 2.5) anymore, we are talking 30+ minutes for a 15 minute match! It is just unacceptable. You can't do much while in queue either )or at least the stuff I really want to work on), so I am just literally sitting there, just waiting

Keep this thread alive, Hopefully it will get SE's attention

- Remove GC entirely

WHY CAN'T WE BE TEAMMATES

Any deficiency in a GC's population Sadness. For Primal, it seems like Flames are extremely lacking in members for the time being. They are why we have had such bad queue times.

Removing GCs removes the competitiveness and without that, whats the point?

I know man, it's dumb. We also just had a 62 min queue with 4 people for slaughter before giving up. I don't see any solution other than removing GC restriction at this point. I think queues are getting worse by the day here.

I mainly PvP just to PvP :/ The GC/competition thing doesn't really matter as much to me.

Also people all jumped ship to whoever was winning ~the most~ which is what is making queues so bad. Always a lot of Storm queuing and maintaining though... Adders/Flames flip flop.

I am pro server vs server. With the shortages being filled out by more active servers. So Gilgamesh ques up 31 (all adders probably) They get one team with the extras going to Fairie who only qued 17. It already groups us up across data center anyways.

I understand that this model promotes premade. I will go as far as to say let us que as an alliance. I am sure if people had instant pops they would take 10 losses in a row. 10 losses with max losing buff is probably more xp then some people get in a week. Probably only take 90ish mins. I am sure someone could do the math of rewards for 10 losses. I know now in 90 mins with 3 wins i am only getting 1800 marks.

I would hope it would group up the small pvp communities on the servers. More people on chat and more people trying to do team stuff. If we could reserve instance on server some of the more active servers could probably have 8vs8vs8 matches with out anyone other server. I worry that with out some sort of team atmosphere it would diminish pvp. I already see that lots of regular rank 45s aren't queing for slaughter for some reason.

Just make anyone allowed to queue as anything. Having one side lose 10 times in a row to get fast queues is not a good solution when just removing all restrictions would both fix the queue times while keeping it fair.
