When will "Instance is full" be fixed?

Nothing is more annoying than waiting in queue for daily and the instance being full, be unable to travel, then having to wait 15 minutes before you can queue again. If you can't remain in there outside of the group and the group now has four people, how can it be too full to travel there?

I have never had to wait more than one minute when getting the "instance is full" before I was able to travel to the dungeon.

However long it takes the game to consider someone who rage logged off to be removed from the instance, I'm sure it's less than the 15 minutes it takes to requeue.

That's because they kicked a player out of the group and queued to find a replacement. Until the player that was kicked leaves the dungeon, you'll get that message. Just wait a few seconds and then port to one of the players in your group.

Most times you really can't get in the dungeon and or the group kicks you for "taking too long". Yes you can abandon the undaunted dailie quest and it does let you travel sometime but whats the point of doing dailies then? It's been a bit since this happened to me but it happens.

Once i was in a loop, i'd start traveling get get full instance notification and the game boots me to home screen. Pretty sad when simple features like this don't even work properly when all you want to do is relax and play their game.

You dont get a penalty then though afaik.

And yes this is annoying and sometimes you cannot get in despite many tries.

I have actually. I mean i don't blame them though. Regardless the queues can be funky and i was just agreeing with the OP.

Yeah I have usually been unable to travel the whole 15 minutes even if not kicked. Also I still get a penalty even if kicked. It's really annoying.

Well maybe I was wrong on it, I just know someone asked to be kicked so he didnt get penalty and I think they changed it some time back... but really IMO it´s the penalty that´s the problem. If you can´t get in because someone has technically not left the dungeon that could be hard to fix, but the penalty is too severe still... and it´s almost never that you get it 'legitimately'.. it´s someone queued up for the wrong dungeon and leaves after 10 seconds etc... maybe it prevents some exploit or bot but still...

I think it's there to stop people just only doing easy dungeons for their daily 100k xp. I know if there was no penalty I'd keep jumping out until something like FG or BC 1 came up just do it only takes 10 minutes.

That is really weird. Because my friend who runs dungeons a lot has asked groups to kick him when he ended up in the wrong dungeon so he wouldn't get a penalty.

I think there are two different circumstances of "instance is full", the first is when someone leaves the group or gets kicked, and that resolves itself in a minute or two. The second is when the person logs off without leaving the dungeon (or their game crashes/they lose internet/are kidnapped by aliens). In that case, the game still keeps them in the server, and consequently in the instance, for about 10 minutes.

and fix backfill after killing final boss. I joined in group right after they kill last boss.

You can enter the dungeon via wayshrine still.

You do get the penalty if you are not in the dungeon instant when the group kick you, otherwise, no 15 minuets penalty.
