Yeah console got our long awaited "incremental patch" that we had to wait over a month for..only to have solo ques actually regress and group ques absolutely unplayable. Tried for 4 hours last night, got in to 4 solo ques after my group gave up and tried solo queing at same time. We got in to some of the same games...on opposite teams every time.

Please address this issue, I'm begging. I bought this game day one in hopes that one day this would be added to the game. During your Reddit AMA I waited and had the very first question in the forum regarding battlegrounds / arenas which was teased as being in the works. Now we get this half assed release that was a complete money grab to dedicated day one subscribers. I only pvp, I've done zero morrowind quests, I have no interest. I only want to pvp and this game isn't allowing it. Cyrodill is great and all but I was saying the gameplay was stale after a year...well here we are...

This is absolutely unacceptable from a company. I don't know who dictates or calls the shots but if I have a deadline or a dissatisfied customer..it takes a top priority. This issue is extremely too laxxed for how serious it is. It's literally killing off the game and forcing the dedicate day one players to realize how much we've actually been bamboozled by zenimax.

I suppose none of this matters as you got a fresh new player base with morrowind of anxious and oblivious players looking to spend money on your shiny god damn crowns. /rant over

A response would be nice but honestly, it's not expected given the precedent set.

Didn't PC just get the patch like 4 days ago? Don't you have that 2 week certification process to wait though? I have a feeling you're not on the same patch.

Read the patch notes. All platforms are supposedly on the same build. There is no such thing as a two week certification process. The certification process is a few days at most. The patch notes from the PC patch on Monday are similar to the Console patch on Tuesday. I've been asking @ZOS_GinaBruno in various threads to confirm this, but have received no answer.

I just read Patch Notes for the New DLC Horns of the Reach, and I saw THIS : A Ready Check is no longer required for Alliance War groups formed through the Grouping Tool. First i was like, did they really listened to people who have good ideas and at second look I saw that its ALLIANCE WAR and only via some group tool noone ever used for Cyro. Sorry, but i call that a laugh into the face.

Ive queued solo, with 2, and full 4 man group the past several days with hardly any issues. We disbanded group once and swapped crown when it seemed to go slower and immediatly got put in a game. Not sure if coincidence, lucky or its not super broke? Your mileage may vary.

Teridaxus

They removed death match lol

Sophieous

Yeah now were're stuck with only CTF and Dom.

Like out of all the modes the only one that was actually worth it and the only one that has any kind of meaning in BGs isn't working anymore.

You play Xbox?or PC?

If I'm going to complain when it's bad then I have to give props when it works. Have spent the last two days playing battlegrounds with a full four man group on Xbox NA and it has worked near flawlessly. Average wait time between rounds was probably around 90 seconds. CTF was still disproportionately predominant game mode, but also got into a number of deathmatches.

Idk what has changed between patch launch on Tuesday and Friday night, but the system has been way better. Even performed well during prime time. Maybe whatever that grouping bug was on the sever end was messing with it. Props to the team; @ZOS_BrianWheeler, @ZOS_GinaBruno, @ZOS_JessicaFolsom.

*Note, I have knocked on wood multiple times in hopes of warding off any jinxes.

HEBREWHAMMERRR

Interesting..im in the process of a move but will hook the box up to try a couple group ques and do some testing on Xbox NA tonight.

Problem pushed under the carpet...

Because its a third patch that suppose to fix it and ive payed for Morrowind for battlegrounds only?

be glad if its fixed in 3 months, this is ZoS were talking about.

Even if it is fixed, its going to break again in 1 or 2 patches for another few months down the line.

3 months???? xDDDDDDD

Still having this issue in 2019

ESO makes too much money now, they don't give a single ***

why would you necro this? go to sleep

ZOS your queue system to BGs was better before. Even less fair BGs are better than waiting 20-30 min. 1-2 players random and 3-4 players pre-made is ok. But we have this situation because you want connect only players with a lot of experience (no visible rating) with other players with a lot of experience. You could kick off this system, especially because BGs are no CP.

@ZOS_GinaBruno Is it possible can you explain why we need a ready check?Can you remove the ready check that should greatly improve people issue of getting into BG.

We implemented a Ready Check to give players an out in case they simply aren't ready to be ported to a Battleground. If you're in the middle of completing a quest for example, or looting a Treasure Chest, or killing a boss - you may not be ready to be taken away from that activity as soon as a Battleground is ready to begin. By declining the Ready Check, you're essentially telling our system that it should find someone else to replace you and you don't want to be ported yet. Not having this means someone could suddenly be taken away from something they were in the middle of doing, which could also lead to players immediately leaving as soon as a Battleground begins to return to their prior activity, impacting all the other teams.


Edit: Made a small clarification.

Sooooo, its 2019 now and the Queue is still bugged like in 2017..... Anything you can tell us?

@ZOS_GinaBruno

Would be nice to have a working queue after 2 years..... But i guess thats too much to ask for right?

labambao

Pvp players in tamriel is like that poor kids in Africa. They exist, but who cares. So I don't be surprised if zos just close bgs and make cyro a new pve zone

Kombinator

Had one battleground, because of quest. Now i'm healer/tank mainly, and so i decided to do that as healer. And guess the stat:

1kill
many deaths
0 assist

I also got a bunch of medals for healing, but seriously. No assist for healing the ass out of a damage who then kills an enemy. I can't say, that i was efficient, because no PVP gear nor much experience in this game's PVP, but i was more than ZERO!
