Group finder doesn't work for groups. 90+ mins waiting to re-queue and 2 hours+ in group finder :(

DB has screwed group finder completely if queuing as a group.

So, I play with 2 friends, a tank and a dps, i am a dedicated healer. We queue for the gold, silver and a random every day, and have done for a while. Until the DB update.

So yesterday, we queued 7 times before we gave up and every queue ran one of 2 ways.

The less annoying issue was getting a group of 6 or 7 members, and then have to leave as we cant get into the dungeon, thus getting a 15 minute timer before we can re-queue. This happened twice.

The other problem is when group finder did manage to find a group, it then instantly disbanded, thus giving us a 15 minute timer before we can re-queue. This happened 5 out of 7 attempts yesterday.

So all in all, my 3 man group looking for any vet dps spent almost 2 hours waiting in queue and a staggering 90 minutes waiting to re-queue after group finder messed up and ended up 3 manning the gold.

Can you please roll group finder back to how it worked on Monday, or roll an emergency hotfix as you did for PC, for what i can only assume was the same issue so group finder can at least form
a group successfully.

Or remove that god awful timer so i can at least spam queue until it may eventually form a 4 man group and not disband it instantly. I can understand the reason it is there, but unless group finder works it is literally a kick in the teeth.

My tank has already un-subbed, and my dps is considering quitting all together. We can 3 man all vet dungeons bar CoA, ICP and WGT, but we don't want to, we enjoy playing with others, and without text chat recruiting for a specific dungeon is nigh-on impossible.

So as a 3 man, we cannot queue, i don't know about queuing solo, as i play with friends. Anybody else getting this, queuing solo or as a group??

Please fix this, I don't want to be forced into playing solo as my friends all abandon the game due to your 'group finder improvements' breaking group finder completely.

As a shout out, any xbox EU ebonheart dps wanna run tonights gold, hit me up

This is a problem not just as a group. Queued as a healer, which normally takes less than a minute for normal dungeons, max of five, and I was in the queue for 45 minutes before I got kicked and had to reenter the queue, then waited another 30 minutes before I gave up. Dungeon Finder as a whole is broken right now.

This was an issue they said they were fixing with the DB update yet it didn't work

Before the DB update I was able to queue as a healer/dps and find a group in less than 30 minutes (almost always as a healer). Since the update I have not been able to successfully find a group using activity finder. Last night I played for 5 hours and was not able to find a group after sitting in the queue for 3 1/2 hours. I hope they fix this issue.

Ive been trying to find a group for 4 hours now. It seems like group finder is completely broken.

Don't feel bad I have gotten into 3 tonight and people keep leaving. I don't get this.... they que and then entry when it's asks if they are ready and then leave. All different makeups from low lvl players to high lvl players one by one they fall. Might be more frustrating then not being able to get in at all. I get a nice penalty before I can RE-que as well.

This happens so often, I am wondering if it's a bug in the dungeon finder, rather than the people using it deciding they don't want to do the dungeon they queued for hours ago?
