Guild Wars 2

All I’ve been doing is running dungeons for the last 3 weeks on GW2. I’ve noticed the fastest and easiest way to attend a dungeon group is travel to Lion’s Arch and shout, “LFM Specific Dungeon.” Even when alone, it works great. Going directly to the dungeon zone or asking guildmates will often find me players too, but most players I find are by shouting LFM in Lion’s Arch.

Well if the fastest and easiest way to group is from shouting in Lion’s Arch, why not grant players the option to enter the (Overflow) of Lion’s Arch, regardless of server population? When server population rises and you’re put into the overflow, filling a group becomes almost instant. You can now shout LFM to all the players in the LA (Overflow) and then travel out of the overflow and shout LFM again in LA but to an entirely different group of players! You’re doubling the amount of players that you communicate with. On the flip side, if you can’t enter the (Overflow), you will often be unable to find enough players.

Players can already join dungeons across servers, so allowing players to enter the (Overflow) at anytime could potentially abolish the need for a Dungeon Search feature!

Your thoughts?

They just need a global LFG instead of a zone only LFG.

It shouldn’t be required to leave what your doing, waste travel costs, and shout in chat to hopefully find a group in a reasonable amount of time. Then if you can’t find a group you just wasted 20 min. and silver when you could have continued what you were doing while having a LFG flag up.

I don’t agree with a fully automated Dungeon Finder like another MMO… where there is no human interaction and you just get entered into a queue for your class.

But I do think there needs to be a LFG so people can actively search for everyone who wants to run a dungeon, or karma farm, or whatever, by making LFG global and allowing you to specify a certain pre-existing option such as karma, dungeon, story, etc. that can be filtered on. There is still human interaction with people messaging each other and inviting each other to groups similar to many other MMOs, but there isn’t this archaic system of being required to teleport around and shout for groups.

we need dung finder badly, today tried over 1 hour to find arah story and fail -.-
THIS IS NO FUN TO WASTE TIME TO TRY FIND PARTY FOR DUNGEON

with dungeon finder across all server find party would be 5 min max
