Please make queue auto load

Skwor

Maybe I am missing something and if I am please educate me I would like the campaign queue to auto-load. I get tired of going into the queue, move on to play a little solo or bank surf only to find myself having missed the 60 second window to enter PVP because a person doesn't know when the queue will run down to your position.

Now if there is a way to already do this please anyone tell me, otherwise could we please auto-load or put up a screen overlay that tells you when the queue is at your position?

"Overlay" (as in more noticeable): yes, that could and should fly.

But big, fat No to auto-load.
With the (one and only worthy) campaign always full we dont need lazy ppl coming in afk and wasting even more slots...

I am not picky just need something more noticeable than just staring at a screen waiting for the number to count down.

I agree with the OP

it's far from a matter of being lazy - for me it's more a matter of i start at #78 in the queue and can have an hour or so wait, I tend to bring up the forums, or go farm mats in Craglorn etc.

the queue position by nature can jump very quickly or move incredibly slowly - I once waited just 3 minutes to get into cyrodiil from position #47 or so, and another time took 12-15 minutes from position #14

i'm not lazy enough to sit at my screen doing nothing but stare at my queue position

afk people by default are kicked from the game period and would not make it into cyrodiil if the queue time is longer than 15 minutes, which is more and more becoming the case

however to wait in excess of an hour and miss a 60 second window and rejoin a lengthy queue isn't going to retain much needed players in my opinion

When your queue reaches zero it does pop the Notification icon*, but you still have to open the Notifications (N) to see that it was the queue that popped and nothing else.

*at least it did when I last used it, a couple of weeks ago.

Still does and you can set audio to allow you to alt tab out and still hear in game sounds. But maybe there is room for another addon to be designed to show your position now the one campaign is always full.

The worst part is every time someone in my trade guilds completes a trial I think my PVP queue is ready. :P

That is the problem with the notification it is to generic and easily overlooked. Maybe some kind of middle screen message telling you the queue is on your number?

We really need something more obvious and noticeable.

I would agree with that. Make the Cyrodiil Queue notification have a different sound, and give it a middle-screen pop-up in addition to the notification, like what we get when a scroll is taken.
