Guild Wars 2

…. understand how double queue works O_O
Also, right as i loaded into Khylo map (while choosing forest for other map) i got kicked to login screen…
My guess is that second team never had 5th due to this bug and i lost pts because “logic” lol

Is this where those 4v5 teams are coming from?

race condition o.o?

ah had something else in mind lol

It’s what computer scientists do: take ordinary words and turn them into something else! Think you know what the words: Spring, Hibernate, Java, and Struts mean? Ha, ha, ha. Bet you don’t!!!

Did you hit “leave queue” after getting to the “searching for match” phase and then re-enter the queue? Currently “leave queue” doesn’t work after your enter the search phase and doing this gets you double queued.

I have gotten this several times. It usually happens when I go into PVP queue and select leave queue either after waiting for awhile or found guildys that want to join me. After we queue up for the new match I get the original Ready match. I know this because I have accepted the Ready Match invitation and none of my guildys are on the match with me

I’ve had this happen to me three times and I’ve never left the queue. First time I didn’t pay any attention to it. The 2nd time, I stopped playing PvP after that match to see if the ‘ghost match’ counted on the leaderboard. I ended up winning my match and on the hourly leaderboard update, it showed I had 1 win, 0 losses but that I had gone down -2 on points.

So it’s pretty obvious that the ‘ghost’ match was actually real and at the same time I was playing a match, there was another match that was 4vs5 which had a 90% win chance in my favor, cause I ended up receiving -3 from that match and +1 from the other match I was playing at the same time.

There are two different outcomes from this based on the info I gathered from the third time that happened just yesterday.

1. On map selection or when the map has been decided. A second ‘found match’ pop up will appear where it automatically accepts you while the map selection / map selected UI will be stuck in the background. If all 10 accepts in the new queue, the game will crash. You log in and it takes you to the match. But based from the 2nd time (which I wrote earlier about), it seems there’s a second match being played at the same time where your team is 4vs5.

2. Same scenario (this happened to me yesterday), but this time only 9 accepted and the 10th didn’t accept. After a little while, it started searching for a match again and it removed the UI from the ghost match. I checked the leaderboard on its update to see if there were two matches this time, but the points summed up correctly so there seems there was just 1 match.

This would actually make sense to some 4vs5 matches. Cause sometimes I’ve faced teams where they are 4 players the entire match. If the player actually accepted the match and then like dced or whatever. Logically assumed that he would try to reconnect to the game and try to get in to that match. But in some of those matches, the 5th player never appears. So one would assume he had this bug and he’s currently playing another match at the same time due to the bug and this became his ‘ghost match’.

The first two times it happened to me where it crashed. I submitted a crash report both times, so feel free to check that out if you don’t believe me.
