My past 2 battleground matches have not started and have not gotten through the intermission lobby. Back-to-back BG matches are constantly getting stuck at "Waiting for players" even though my team has 4/4 players. The only way to reconcile this is to leave the match and take the 20-minute Deserter Penalty. I did this once after "Waiting for players" for 15 minutes or so, after all my teammates left the intermission lobby one by one because they got tired of waiting for the match to start, and they were then replace by new people, one by one, who also go stuck into the match bug where the battleground match does not start and does not add new players to the 3rd team (orange team) that would only ever have 1-2 players, wheres the other 2 teams (green and purple) would always have 3-4 players, cycled in and out.
So, I finally left the match and afk'd while waiting for the 20-minute Deserter Penalty, only to re-queue and get stuck in new, different match with the same thing happening...
If it helps, both matches were on the Ularra map, and I was on Green Team both times that I got stuck. I am not sure if that matters or not, but this issue is getting quite frustrating. It has been over an hour that has gone by simply "Waiting for players" and I have not been able to successfully play a Battleground match at all. GG ZOS. No RE!
I guess only 8/9 characters are getting their daily BG win tonight...
@ZOS_GinaBruno @ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_RichLambert @ZOS_BrianWheeler please look into the "Waiting for players" Battleground intermission lobby issue. Thanks.
Anyway, I guess I will just log off while stuck in this Battleground intermission "Waiting for players" lobby. So... GOOD NIGHT!
R.I.P. Battlegrounds.
