Guild Wars 2

While playing WVW its getting very painful to sit in a queue for 2+ hours then get disconnected once in map and then have to get
BACK IN QUEUE. This is past unfair. What can be done to allow priority re-queue?

If they first change the whole queue system to FIFO or something similar, it would probably be easier to implement this. Just like dota2, if ur in the queue and ur game doesnt start because someone dced or whatever, you have priority queue.

But this first-in-random-out means that I can queue and get a pop 2 seconds later (because that’s when someone left the zone and it picked a random queuer to let in), while my buddy has already been in the queue for an hour.

I dont think this will ever happen … of course it really sucks to get disconnected/game crashed but its your own fault (change your isp if it happens too often or upgrade/check your pc, i dont know the reasons why you are getting disconnected) . At least you will have the Edge of the Mists in the next patch.

The server would need to save information and distinguish whether you just logged to another character, turned off your game or disconnected (i dont know if alt+f4 tells the server that you turned off your game and resolves the connection properly, but i guess not and this would be the first problem that could be abused). Then a time interval needs to be saved in which you are able to “prioritize requeue” again and your character with which you have been disconnected (of course this would need to be saved although you might even not come back online). And then the queue needs to work as a queue in order to put you at the top, which still would be unfair to the players that waited as long as you did but would have their queue delayed furthermore.

This is unnecessary work for the server for a problem that happens to maybe 5% of the players. And again are self-caused.

My brother already quit the game because of this.
