Dungeon Finder Broke already
-
Vivecc✭✭✭not only grouping tool, but grouping in general is messed up. Problems to invite , to disband, to trade with ppl that are standing right next to ones own.. and so on...

vovus69✭✭✭✭Well, what is amazing that they knew very well before the event that grouping tool is a *** at best, and they still come ahead with this event... Is it just ignorance, or some information is missing somewhere when it moved up to the managerial food chain? You know how it is - devs says you one thing and when it will reach CTO or VP through 2-3 managers-tampons, everything is already hanky dory... I saw both cases irl and I just wondering what is it here...

We do? Why would anybody stress test something that already doesn't work reliably? They're just curious how bad it can get?Edited by Rainraven on November 30, 2017 6:25PM2 -

✭Xbox na, got the normal someone declined about 7 or 8 times. When I finally got a group it dashboards me. Have to wait out the penalty before I can do anything else.
Well played Zeni.0 -
Maybe they want to actually kill it once and for all. After this the group finder might just give up and die.0

theivorykitty✭✭✭HELPFUL TIP:
Sometimes the 'Leave Queue' button takes a long time (like 7 minutes or so). To make it go faster (read: usually 1 minute, or less), click 'Leave Queue' and then promote someone else to leader. Wait a short bit and you should leave the queue and have the new leader. Then they can join the queue again and repeat the process. Much faster.4 -

It would be good I think if they scrapped the one they have and somebody built a new one. That guy would know exactly how it works and be able to keep it in good repair through the cataclysmic updates four times a year, and they could add some filters and functions we might like to have. The gf we have has never been all that great at its best moments.1 -

✭✭Thanks god for this event, maybe group finder will finally work as it is supposed to.
I suspect that is the whole point. They expected the major issues and are just gathering data to try trouble shoot once and for all. They really should have been a bit more up front about it though and saved people a lot of griefAll my housing builds are available on YouTube

vovus69✭✭✭✭I would recommend to create threads on external forums about this fiasco with group finder. Like reddit, etc, may be in this case zos will do something with it. Local forums are for zos entertainment primarily. Nobody paying attention to the issues unless they can quickly fix it. And this issue is not easily fixable... So, go to reddit and start threads about this.

Just seen your System message.
Changing zones doesnt help.
Logging out and back in doesnt help.
Can you's not find anything wrong with the finder?. that system message provides no help for this issue.0 -

That is like the equivelant of telling someone who calls tech support to turn their system on and off.

Yes, the grouping system seems to work but the dungeon finder is still broken. Forming group and saying someone has declinedPC EU AD

@ZOS_GinaBruno Why would you create an event that uses (needs) the most broken piece of the game ??

Which is the whole point...not so you can make 8 characters and try to exploit their kindness...this is an incentive to test the system, not an entitlement...
It's absolutely hilarious to me that they want to "test" a system that has been broke since homestesd that they refuse to fix. The phantom queues, having to do 1000 ready-checks, and not being able to enter a dungeon because of a false full-instance message have all been happening for months and instead of fixing it they designed an event to make all of us use the broken tool. It's almost insulting. Actually I would say it is.
on the contrary...it's absolute bloody genius
they don't bother testing their own stuff properly, so they just get the community to do it for them under the guise of an "event"
money saved on hiring testers

Which is more or less one of the functions of a stress test. It brings out pre-existing bugs happening to large enough numbers of people that ZOS can replicate it, test solutions, and get it fixed.
Its just going to be frustrating as all get in the meantime.
That is ZOS main problem. They want to waste players playtime that bought and game, subscribe and buy DLC's to test there work.
Why isnt this tested by in house employees rather than constantly squandering players time. Truly a disgrace.
To all those thinking THIS.
I've (knock on wood). NEVER experienced trouble with the group finder. No matter what the reason/cause is. Programmers/Testers/Dev will have a tendency to test and replicate in a certain matter. If they, like myself, NEVER have this problem, theyre probably enraged at accounts (that for the last months) of Group Finder being [insert profanity] bugged.
Because they go back, test it again, and cant replicate. Very few things are more frustrating than being told something doesnt work when you only see it working fine. Now they are going to see/experience it, because of the added traffic etc. They can better find what the problem is by experiencing it themselves, than by half-a$$ed bug reports and complaints (and the occasional properly filled out form with steps to reproduce).
So to everyone saying its a disgrace and yadi-yadi-yada. I have no clue what you are talking about, because until now, this has always worked fine for me. Chances are the same is for them.
NEXT; This event is pure marketing and has nothing to do with the testing/bug-fixing team. If anything that team might have warned against this event, knowing there are accounts of something they couldnt still reproduce or fix.
TLDR: Marketing is bad. Leave the devs alone.2 -
