Guild Wars 2

Yeah another of these threads. Not seen any this season, surprisingly. It’s weekend and I can’t get a match for these queue times. Over 30mins, by which time I lose interest. I actually watched myself get logged out for inactivity before I got a match. This is something that really needs to be addressed with each matchmaking algorithm change... It’s going to continue to get worse unless addressed ASAP because it makes people stop queuing and even quit altogether.

Perhaps the lack of such threads is indicative that most of the people affected by absurd queue times have already moved on, or just go elsewhere after reaching legendary.

I just farm APs in unranked atm.
Queues in legend are endless. There is no point really to queue in ranked – rewards are nothing special (lol dat bit of gold) once you reached legend, 0 motivation to sit in 1 hour queues so you can engage product of crappy balancing and matchmaking for another 15min.

I can get decent fights in unranked with shorter queues.

Left myself in queue in spectate in a custom arena, went out, came back. Still in queue, over 60mins now. Had some fun scrims last night so was really feeling like trying some things out in ranked queue today. Unranked, yeah, been there. Not a great fan of capricorn all the time, would like a different map from time to time, and of course the match quality is actually still better in ranked. Sure you get annoyed with the 1 guy whose brain got stuck at the loading screen, but at least you’re not one-shotting most and wondering why it’s a close game.

Edit: I do miss the EU matches =[

ahh because like every season since S2 there is no reason to keep playing once u reach legend. ANET knows this and done nothing. they let it continue for 3 more season before they say dthey will do something next season. maybe!

1 Black Lion Claim ticket per subsequent legendary division completed? Skins seems to be a big driver even when the skin isn’t even a nice one. This way it doesn’t require ANet to make anything, really.
