But solution is so simple - this is Undaunted event, event of people who join together to deal with dangerous monsters - i.e. guildmates, friends, not a groups of random people who will queue as tanks on all their chars to get more lootboxes. Or for people who stubborn enough to complete dungeons solo, i.e. who like to challenge daedra face-to-face etc - from lore side. T
So just connect lootboxes to pledges, maybe to pledge from one leader, Maj for example. Load on finder will be lower, so those people who don't play in guilds or not used to clear dungeons solo will have much better chances to participate through GF.
And how does that help people who are lower than 45 who cant do pledges?3 -
lientier✭✭✭✭This reminds me of that thread from last year that went on for months try to get ZOS to give compensation of free mystery boxes for lost time from last year's events.
Surprise.... They ignored it!
Anyone got a link to that thread? It went on for months

well they promised compensation first, but didnt in the end, didnt even admit that they wouldnt (or couldnt which I could have accepted)Edited by lientier on November 29, 2018 10:16PMPC-EU @lientier2 -

Just give them lootoboxes on pledge end and everyone will be happy

You're 'working on the issue', I'd hurry it up if I were you, because you've got a lot of angry people on your hands to deal with, and those angry people will want to be compensated for time lost due to poor management.@AWinterWolf, PC EU.

What a fail.... even bigger than last year cause back then at least I could get in after 20 min or so. Now it is impossible. I wasted the whole evening because of it. Now it's 11PM in Europe (CET) so we just lost one day of the 5-day event.
You know what would be the best and the most reliable solution to this problem this year and next ones? Ditch the grp tool requirement (which has been buggy since I can recall) and link the boxes with the first pledge completed on the character. That way we wouldn't have to use the tool at all and still would need to change/rotate dungeons to get the boxes...2 -

✭✭✭✭✭I don't like this trend of rushed buggy content, and integral game mechanics like GROUP FINDER are not a priority for them to maintain its functionality. I don't like the new usual, of expecting every new attempt at content development to be riddled with issues that don't get resolved.

Tying them to pledges would lock out people under level 45. Not exactly a great idea, sadly.2 -

Don't want to be rude because it's not your fault but everyone knew this is going to happen. It's not the first time. And nothing has been done since the last time with the grouping tool or servers or code or whatever is the problem. We all know that ZOS knew this is going to happen. Nothing new here. Just don't pretend it was a big surprise. Can we finally have some core updates? GF tool, UI, token system, some reworks here and there?5 -

Remove this limit >< it's really nonsensical limit, since currently chars in 20-50 levels are extremely powerful in dungeons due to call to arms buff.5 -

Ok. Let's suffer all together, it always better when everyone is poor cause some players purposefully avoid reaching baseline cp160 game level and prefer to stick to low-levels where they are buffed and blessed by game mechanics of tamriel unlimited.0 -

If you sign up for a dungeon or battleground it seems logic you want to run it, but queing up gives multiple declines in a row even when a group is formed allready, would removing the decline option makes the dungeon finder run more smoother?
The thing is, after confirming group goes into forming and players have no physical option to decline at this point. Button is greyed out and they are locked in it. Yet, magically, broken gf decide to declare someone declined at this point while its impossible to do so and restarts the cycle. Its been trashed like this from day 1, but hey, remember, broken confirm need to be there because "what if players are in process of looting chest or a random npc on the world map". ZOS cant allow such treasures go to waste so they added useless confirm that bugs whole process from the start.Edited by Gravord on November 29, 2018 10:39PM1 -
Supertoy31✭✭Cancelling my ESO+ renewal if this is still a trash-fire when I get home in 4 hours
ZoS has the best MMO on the market and continually finds every way possible to shoot themselves in the foot.
Exactly. I'm sick of this. So much potentiel and still capable to spoil everything. Even if i would put TESO easily in my top 5 games, i cancel ESO+ for some times (anyway i wasnt active for some month now...), that's it.
TESO would be the best MMORPG if it had a perfectly working groupfinder/matchmaking. But we are far from this, really.

Thought it was fixed, switched to my healer after the dungeon was done, and have been queuing again even since.

They've never known. It's like the GF is some arcane thing created by aliens, beyond the ken of mere mortal ZOS devs. Probably could give it to a spotty 17 year old computer science under-grad and he'd fix it in 30 mins however...0 -

Dawnblade✭✭✭✭✭ESO's group finder is trash - and ZOS should be embarrassed.
I play other games with a group finder that...- Actually works - as in it will find a group and port the group to the dungeon, no stuck in endless 'someone has declined' loops forever.
- Pauses if the player gets disconnected - rather than the ESO model where you get disconnected trying to accept the never ending loop of 'someone has declined', only to relog to find yourself having to re-queue.
- Provides a reasonably accurate estimation of the wait time instead of wondering if the queue is broken when waiting a longer than normal amount of time.
- Doesn't automatically kick you out of the instance at the end when the rest of group drops, so you can finish a quest or just wonder around and explore the zone.
- Also offers lots of options to find, filter and build pre-made groups for all content, including hard dungeons and even raids.
