WTB Class Reroll please
Welcome to NW
please do not open any new threads whether that be here or in the bug reports forums about queue time issues. it is a known issue and adding more threads isn't going to make anything go faster.
thanks.
Next week ?!? You mean once the event is done and the queue is not needed anymore ?

If i queue solo, im still getting sub 10k gs people in a group. Im running like 16k.. Ive won much much more than lost.
No reason to put scrubs in the group then pit my team against a solid 13k-15k gs team.
Im not even sure ELO is in there or doin what it should be lol.
ya one has to wonder how many people will find something else to do in the mean time and just not come back. I'll keep playing because I think NWO is the god of games and of course there is not anything more fun to do than waiting in a q for twenty minutes and watching my friends quit the game. Not sure many people will feel as I do though.

I think most of us prefer the ELO being toned down, and not having to wait for more than 10 mins to get into a match. I hope it doesn't take as many pages and threads of complaints as it did last time for them to finally fix it again, by removing what obviously isn't working properly.
Have the gear and skills, but lack the friends to play with? Come and apply for Essence of Aggression. We have been here and strong since beta. (Immature, rude, and arrogant people will not be accepted)
i just thinking, matcmaking is using total gs on team not personal gs. Did you ever enumerate the whole gearscore in your team or oponent team?
Maybe once mod 3 comes the player base will increase enough to make an ELO system more effective.
So, just wait the event out. It ends in about a day and a half or so.

If you mean this after CTA, then I guess you're lucky. I'm regular 10k guy and before CTA my solo queue times were around 30 seconds - 1 minute and the matches were mixed bag, sometimes it was a draw, sometimes we were utterly annihilated, sometimes we won.
Now after CTA, my queue times are 30min - 1hour (!) and the matches are again mixed bag. One noteworthy was where we won by 5 points, but we were stomped upon in the next one as well. So the matchmaking did not seem to improve significantly, but the queue times degraded to the point that I stopped queueing and started leveling my alt. I can't stare 30 minutes into the screen and I don't want to get interrupted by queue in the middle of quest.
Problem is I get put with 7K GS players if I do this, and meet premades as well... yesterday one of the matches we met premade with r8-10s and perfects and I had 2 7K GS players and one 13K without armor/wep enchants. Asked for 1vs1, got 2-3-4vsme instead, remained in spawn, gg, lost to 0.
For this I had to wait almost an hour in queue...
i only have a certain time i can play every day, all i want to do is queue for some pvp, get my seal of triumph, maybe have some fun play a few matches before i have to leave... But no... cant even do that... ****ing trash system really.... stop introducing <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> bugs every freaking update. Honestly, at least let players redeem a seal of triumph every day we cant get it by playing the stupid game....
Game 1, solo queue on CW.
25min queue. Fairly balanced teams(that is to say, both teams had some idiots and some people who knew how to play domination). Was most geared player on my side(by about 4k). Opposition had a Pvorp GWF, so it evened out.
Game 2, solo queue on CW.
Similar 25min queue. Teams appeared balanced at start. Shouted at my team to help me backcap instead of defending middle and home. Result was landslide 1000 to ~500 victory. Only half the people in the game had armor enchants, both on my side and theirs. Opposition had a fairly decent GF with a GPF.
Both sides had balanced comps(DC/CW/CW/GF/TR on mine and TR/TR/CW/GF/DC opposition). Again, I was the most geared player on my team, but only by 2k.
Game 3, queued as trio on my HR with guild members.
Again, a long wait of 15-20 mins. Ended up teamed up with an EoA duo who were queuing separately(to form a full premade) vs...an EoA partial + pugs. Sadly, the opposing EoA partial's pugs were dreadful and fought off node all game. Easy win, despite the very similar gear(pvorps and biles about, with emblems on both teams).
Thus, I believe that the increased queue time is a) less people due to CTA and b) patch slightly tightened the previously very slack ELO matchmaking, resulting in games taking 3-5 times longer to find.
In all three games, the match took less time than the queue.
Here's what happened:
1) 15 minute time to queue up.
2) Our 3 man EoA team turned into a 5 man EoA team as we ended up with two other members of our guild.
3) On the opposing team there were 3 EoA members.
Good times. We queued up again for a match after, and the same thing happened again!
