Why is the group finder so bad?

haoleflipub17_ESO
I am new and we have been sitting in a 3 man party for about 30 minutes now waiting for a 4th. We already have a tank and I am healer, we just need a nother dps. Why is it that the groupfinder takes so long? Surely more people play the game?

    Not many people use the group finder. There is a stigma about 'pick up groups', and people tend to avoid them. There may not of been another person tagged as dps even in the system for group finder.

    What platform do you play on? Pc or console? Some times people are queued for 2 things. For example in your group of 3, tank is also queued for dps.. So it looks like you have 2 dps already on the LFG tool. I think the LFG tool gets confused. It takes longer to find someone. This also happens when you first que for a group. You get teleported into the dungeon with only 3 members because someone queued for 2 roles. They really need to fix this. I usually ask people to que for one role and it finds members quicker.

    Personally I have never used the Group Finder once in all my playtime. I usually get together with friends and guildmates for dungeons.

    It's actually miles better than it was. (For one, it actually works now.) It is scheduled for improvement for the next dlc release, iirc.

    The LFG tool right now is awesome and working fine.. Your issue is caused by the population not making use of the excellent tool.

    Yes it is. Gina mentioned that recently, shouldn't be very far back if you check the dev tracker

    Why would I stop telling people they can be successful without 4 people
    Why wouldn't you want the oP to know that they don't have to wait for 4?

    Seriously....Why?

    Simply there isnt enough players, theres tons of content and too little players, thats why we need Request System. Players can put Requests, it shows on everybody's UI, those who help get reward, it last there as long its completed. The best part is, Zen can put their own employess to do them later, when requests start to pile up, I'd predict this becomes reality after 2 year from now.
