Duos and particularly solo queues work really well.

How about you stream your success rate for everyone to see? Because Blobs is streaming his success rate live instead of posting on the forums without evidence? Not saying you're wrong. And not trying to be confrontational. Just can't think of a better way to word it on the fly.

ZoS -

You need to automatically zone everyone into Battlegrounds once a match is found. NO MORE READY CHECKS. Give everyone 60 seconds after a match is found, then spawn them in.

Let me say it again. YOU DO NOT NEED A READY CHECK SYSTEM WITH BATTLEGROUNDS.

Stop trying to make something that will never work, work. You cannot expect 12 people to constantly ready check, over, and over and over. People get distracted. People farm. People get into combat. People duel. People zone places and get stuck in loading screens.

Jesus Christ... I'm seriously tired of repeating myself.

Assume its a PC thing as Xbox is mint for me. Only queued solo thus far but straight in, no queues, no problems

Friends don't let friends buy morrowind for BGs.

In v3.0.10 they were indecisive with how to implement core Halls of Fabrication mechanics and had to revert newly developed changes. They also cannot (and will not) fix group finder.

Proc sets were left untouched and are still used by everyone in BGs. Game performance itself has been horrible for a long time, and steadily gets worse each patch. Those promises of fixing Cyrodiil are a blatant lie.

To me it's becoming a pattern. I won't get my hopes up for any good changes to arrive. If you expect nothing, then you can only be pleasantly surprised at changes - this works wonders with the shockingly low standards ZOS has set in so many different ways for ESO.

Group Finder for BGs will likely never work Blobs. Since console launch Dungeon queue has always been poor quality, which is when I started playing ESO. If it was broken that long ago after so many attempted fixes I have little faith they'll figure it out now.

(to be fair, I have gotten a few back-to-back solo queues, while only occasionally being forced to wait 20-40min before the queue actually grouped me again.

Well at least they are consistent.

Please stop coming in here and saying everything is A okay. Yes solo que normally works well. That being said this is an MMO in which the whole point is to play with your friends. Last year ZOS' entire focus was on making grouping and group play easier and more rewarding and the first update of this year is just a flop for groups.

Releasing their biggest update since launch and having the biggest aspect (most anticipated aspect) not work is just insulting. Then hearing in ESO live the whole onion layer analogy again is another slap in the face. How long have they been peeling the layers of the onion dealing with cyrodiil lag? and how has that been working? You xbox players still get 2 frames in every keep battle? I know I do. I also DC in every major conflict. BGs were supposed to be a relieve from the lagfest hell whole that cyrodiil has become only to not even be able to queue with friends. Compounding that is the fact that most of the games have unbalanced teams, infinite load screens kick you out, or you get paired with people who should have their own lobby.

All that being said when BGs work they are very fun. Ignoring all the proc set and some class imbalance they are still really fun. They just need to adjust the core issue and start filling games 4X4X4 like what was promised.

For the record, I dread to think how many people are leaving the game because of this - I have the benefit as a streamer of getting to see it in action:


Weeks prior to morrowind, viewership varies between 350-400
Week of morrowind release - 800 viewers concurrent
Weeks 2/3 - both around 500-550
Week 4 maybe 350, my vieweship prior to morrowind
Week 5 to current week (7) 200 viewers maximum concurrent.,

People have no interest being stuck in endless queues - no content actually exists there, so they just leave the game and streams. Other streamers have the same insane % losses, and it is incredibly bad for streamers and (even more so) the game itself
Naturally the comment will be ignored, but the servers should just instantly be taken down and this issue resolved even if it takes a few days.

What I can't believe is that their "fixes" keep passing QA test.

Yeah I should have known it was going to be broken

LOL I love how Zo$ keep saying the problem is on our end. errr no. If multiple people are reporting the same thing it sure as hell ain't our fault, it's your **** programming.

100%. As i've always say Zo$ would be *** up in the water by now if they were not sitting on such a great I.P. All the more makes me excited to see what would happen to this games population when Bethesda drops TES VI.

There is no way they test these changes. Zos puts it on live as the test and then doesn't respond to feedback.

Let's be honest at this point they don't know what the issue is and it must really be that one player for hours not taking the que even though thousands of players are in que

There was a time, when the group finder was okay. That was BEFORE the ready check system get into the game.

I don't know a lot about the ESO-programming, of course it is very complicated.

But the problem, that we can't queue as a group of 4 persons for the BGs, because it takes hours to do some matches (or maybe none, depends on the time), that is very annoying.

Of course it's on your priority list, but 7 weeks and the problems are still there...

As Gina said, I would like to see the next steps and hope that it will be fixed VERY VERY VERY SOON!

Hey guys, just letting you all know that we do see your replies about the ongoing queuing issues, and we're working on a larger, more detailed post explaining what our next steps are. Expect to see this in the next couple days.

I hate to say it, but this is going to be pushed aside just like fixing Console Trial performance was.

After over a month they finally acknowledged the issue when a certain thread grew way too popular, then they added "additional logging" a few weeks later and haven't responded since. Trials have been having massive crashing issues on console since Homestead and nothing has been addressed.

They do not know how to fix trials, and they likely don't understand how to fix group finder.

Think about it - they are taking this long just to tell us what they think is wrong with BG queuing, not to fix it. Any fix that may eventually happen is a long way off.

ExcaliburESO

Solo queue is 5 min wait in prime time , group queue (2,3,4) not working! I donno that ppl say it works it doesent work for my whole guild whenever i ask ppl they say they cant queue and now less and less ppl even wanna try to queue in groups...

Vargrim

If everyone asked for a refund of the morrowind expansion until the queue issues are solved, somehow I bet they'd fix it the next day, that's the sad part.
