Unable to Accept Queue While Playing Triple Triad?!

[warren-ragnarok]

Seriously guys...


If your queue pops just start throwing down cards. This isn't FF8 where you lose them, and you may even just win!


I treat them like speed rounds /shrug


It sounds like a Forfeit button would actually be worse than what you can currently do. Forfeit will most likely make you lose your entry fee, whereas even a loss gives you most of it back....

Im not sure if it was the specific match i was in,, (the training match) but it wouldnt let me cancel the match to enter DF

That training match includes pauses to display the instructions, so the NPC's moves don't come immediately like they do in most other matches.

In most NPC Triple Triad matches, you can finish quickly just by playing your own cards immediately whenever it's your turn, because the NPCs will be doing the same. The training match is an exception because of those pauses for instructions. And as Alberel mentioned, any match with the Sudden Death rule can become an exception if you keep ending in a draw. (The Sudden Death rule is that a draw forces a rematch, so the game doesn't end until there's a clear winner or until you have several (five IIRC) draws in a row.) I haven't really dealt with all the different special rules yet, so I'm not sure if there are other exceptions as well, but there are at least those two.

if duty pops while im in a TT match i just throw cards anywhere its not a huge loss of mgp and npc takes his turns just as quick so i havent missed a duty pop up so far just doing that

Would be nice if the time to accept was extended. It sucks to wait in queue for hours, finally get up to use the restroom, and its penalized you for not accepting.

Personally, I lost only one queue while playing triple triad. Afterwards I just placed any card really quickly to end the game and was able to enter DF without any problems. Better than forfeiting the game and you get some MGP back.

The simple solution is to just not match anyone engaged in content for DF groups. Give the player an alert saying they are near the front of the queue and match them as soon as they finish.

Actually, I'd love to know where I am in the queue, just like when you're logging in. At least then, you have a better idea of, "Okay, I can dig my heals into FATE grinding or triple triad matches" versus "Hm, is it matching me yet? Is it matching me yet? Is it matching me yet?"

That would be a bigger rewrite of the queue system as opposed to a far simpler forfeit button.
