So Zos can fix certain things in one day...

Yet ever since i’ve started playing, queueing for random dungeons has taken on average of 40 minutes a queue, solo, on a mega server with supposedly hundreds of thousands of people? Right.

It’s obvious that zos doesn’t even care about the game. How can you have the same problems with your game for six months, and most likely far longer?

So when people get benefits they aren’t supposed to get you can fix it in one day, but it takes me sometimes over an hour just to do my daily random dungeon? Lol. I’ll give zos until Q3 2020 and if they are telling lies and the same problems arise, I will just play something else. What I can’t stand is being lied to.

    Bahahahaha.

    People were complaining that the fix was delayed until Monday.. Now they complain it was fixed "in one day".

    And people wonder why game devs grow skins thicker than a WW2 battleship.

    Not literally one day, but “one day” relatively speaking when compared to how long certain problems have been a problem in the game.

    I would also like to add that when I queue with more than solo, it goes through within 1 minute every time.

    Proportions. Learn what that is and you’ll understand why it takes so long to queue as a DD.

    But didn’t Zos say they are going to make it better by the end of Q2 2020.

    Also, I know what you’re talking about. But I do not see why that would make queueing solo take 4,000 percent longer on average. It doesn’t even matter what I queue as, healer, Tank, DPS. Takes forever. Most people play as DPS, so then by what you’re referencing, DPS should take longer than, say, healer. Which less people play as.

    I'm gonna guess you play a DD. So do lots and lots of other people, which is the primary reason your queue takes forever.

    If you want a faster queue as a DD, the beat thing to do is to queue with at least one other player. Obviously a tank or healer is quickest, but even partnering with another DD seems to make the queue go a lot quicker.

    If you want a faster queue without having to be social with other players, I suggest you learn to run as a healer or tank. Please do actually fill that role with heals or a taunt, respectively.

    As to your first paragraph, I addressed what you stated in an earlier post.

    Your second, I like healer as well and solo-queueing as a healer takes forever as well. About as long.

    I am a social player but people aren’t on at all hours of the day. Sometimes people aren’t on and I want to solo queue. Also, I wanted to hunt for a set yesterday and when my friend logged off I decided to as well, because screw sitting in solo queue for 30 (if I’m a healer) or 40 (if I’m DPS) minutes to get a chance at a piece or two of the set I want.

    Basically, the point was that Zos addressed solo queue (as far as I know) for dungeons, and if they don’t back that it’s a deal breaker for me.

    I did just that, created a tank after someone stated the very same thing in a post and had more fun with that than DD. Good advise.

    I made a healer and the wait times were barely shorter. On a mega server with hundreds of thousands of people, I shouldn’t have to be obligated to change how I play or who I want to play with. The game should work.

    I usually play as tank and havemt had that long of queues, but hey, I'm sorry to hear its that bad on your healer.

    The Activity Finder revamp is supposed to go Live this year, Q4, so we'll have to hope it improves matters.

    I very-much hope that their fixes actually work. I can’t speak too much about the merits or lack thereof when it comes to the devs or whatever of this game, because I have only been playing for 6 month, but this is something that has progressively made me dislike the game more and more as time goes on. I don’t want to learn a new character and redo a bunch of things just so I can get a set or two.

    But, I mean, how long does it take to solo queue for a dungeon as a tank? 30 minutes? 20? Have you ever seen a solo queue go right through in under a minute like you do if you queue duo? I haven’t. I’m talking to someone who mains Tank about it right now on discord and he says that I should just accept solo queue times for what they are, lol.

    I understand that people queue as healer when they are DPS, but you NEED a tank for the most part. So I could see if the queue was like 20 minutes on average. I haven’t solo queued as a tank and have no interest in playing as one, and I shouldn’t have to change the way I play because a game doesn’t work properly.

    Que times are not related to the system but how many players of the role are queing. If you have 800 dps in que and 400 healers but 0 tanks there will be a wait until you get the 400 tanks. Healer que is somewhat shorter but tank que is instant, which leads you to the conclusion that there is a severe shortage of tanks queing. If you want instant que make a tank, but the wait times are 100% on the player base choice and not the game system. The reason for this is in the group finder most players are mediocre and that's like nails on a chalkboard for tanks, so they make their own groups and have no problem doing so. Dungeons are fun when you can pull your weight, but that rarely happens and in group finder. Most good tanks have a guild to get players from and if you want short que as a dps that's the way to go.

    Dont worry, OP. Lots of us are still crashing like before the "fix". I believe there have been at least 3 threads started on that issue.

    Thank you for your insight. I didn’t know tanks are instant. My friend didn’t mention that LOL

    Yeah, I’ve also gotten stuck in quite a few walls. That’s not that big of a deal to me, crashes are happening frequently, though. If I play 8 hours in a day I will see at least 1 or 2. Luckily they aren’t full system crashes (or a hard crash) and they are just the game closing. Still sucks though.

    How about starting with something beyond basic, while throwing us console players a bone, and FIX THE F%#@ING VOICE CHAT.

    That reminds me, its almost time to annually refresh that bug report that still hasn't gotten a single response.
