    Queue times are depressingly bad for me most nights (Flames on Primal). Even during prime time on weekends, you can wait over an hour for a match -- and 72 person matches are almost non-existent here now. I feel like a lot of players don't even have the motivation to queue anymore, since they know they'll be facing such long waits, and it's just not worth it for them. Please remove GC restrictions, SE!

    People argueing with me because i want to (PvP) in match and not (PvE) its really aggervating. Plus i miss playing slaughter , secure and seal rock
    Why most they die when a new game mode comes out
    And not stay alive
    Remove GC restrictions...
    So true lol. I sneer in Shatter everytime a 24-man pops and I see the multi-rock one verses the 4 big rocks simply because it means way more running to abstract locations, less time for actual engagement. Getting a healer..or even worse a dps who says at start "Do NOT engage unless you have to." "Back away, let the other teams fight it out,", and my absolute favorite "stop attacking them! Don't wanna get them angry at us." Seriously, if they revived Secure and Slaughter, I'd never step foot in shatter and Seal again. Wtf is a pvp match where you're encouraged NOT to pvp?

    As for the gc restrictions? Its gotten laughable at this point. Patch after patch after patch goes by with the devs constantly giving crappy excuses and 'oh..we're definitely considering it' bullshi* but nothing changes. Would say lets just boycott pvp a few days but the que times are making us do that already.

    If we could queue in with our friends from ANY gc then we could get more people in queue and more games going. With how abysmal queue times are, even during prime time, queueing in again after a loss is all that more heartbreaking knowing that you're just going to have to sit in a sweet 30min + queue again. Talk about killing you softlyasdfasdfasdf. Currently, 72 mans are like finding a unicorn. It's almost exciting to see it pop, in a bad way. Lastly, the fact that mounts are locked behind specific game modes adds on to the pressure of wanting to win. Even more so for people who were late to the party and haven't been pvping since the start of a new game mode.

    It really is a vicious cycle of trying to rush your x amount of wins to get your mounts or glamour (seal rock). process: long queue > losing after waiting all that time > get disheartened at even trying > time passes > you miss out on glamours/mounts because the new/next Frontlines got released with new rewards.
