I am waiting in 15 minute queues for BGs regardless if I queue solo or I’m group. ZOS please fix your algorithm.

I get punished for having friends and queuing in as a premade.

I get punished for having no friends because they all quit the game cause... and I have to solo queue.

Come on ZOS!

    15 minutes? Consider yourself lucky :-)

    I solved it yesterday by playing on one of my secondary characters. Although she's heavily crippled in comparison - it gave me ~3-5 minute queues after a few hours of BGs.

    And a 3+ premade always takes longer, because they try to make premades fight premades. As of now - it seems to me like they have solo/duo in one "Queue" and 3+ groups in another "Queue" - and if they can't find enough premade groups, they stuff it the same "Queue".

    What I've also noticed is that if you queue in as 3-man, you *will* in almost every case get a 4th random one - even though the 2 other teams are just solo-queuers - and only 3 people.

    Something is definitely messed up with the queueing system, although I think they should keep the 3+ premades a different queue than solo/Duo(Similar to League of Legends' system) as a full-man premade basically guarantees a win against non-premades.

    You touched slightly on it in but let me spell it out and also highlight it for you. Competition HAS increased with Summersets changes to battlegrounds.

    New features (to name a few) included!

    3v4v4! - Competitively play vs two full groups, either with that one last player who you are able to drag into battlegrounds plus 1-2 yolo "I honestly never bought this cp 1300 account" high on spice 0-16-2 player. Don't like the odds Too competitive for ya? Don't worry you'll get your 4th with 2 minutes to spare! Failing that, just quit 6 minutes in and have the match cancelled on the other 8 players.

    Endurance vs Endurance, who will break first? - Have the whole day to spend looking at your monitor watching a timer increase? Competitively discuss and display to your "friends" and rivels ingame and in online forums about your latest new "top tier" queue times (even post a screenshot or two!). The more successful you are or more matches you play the longer you wait! So get stuck in! **Be sure to watch your favorite eso streamers while waiting for a chance to obtain loot creates**

    you forgot the most important one

    queue for 40 minutes then finally get into a CTR match that will end in 2-4 minutes and then its back to comparing BG queue timers

    EDIT: Ive pretty much quit BG cause of most the reasons listed above

    Im not sure why, just for BGs, they cant amalgamate EU and NA players so that we get:

    - reduced waiting times
    - increased population meaning only premades v premades and pugs v pugs.

    Its been done in other MMOs. Obviously I'm not privy to the technicalities to whether this is possible or not for ESO however I do think it would be a step in the right direction.
