Guild Wars 2

Queing indeed seems totally random.
It’s simply horrible at the moment, hours and hours to wait.
And it has been like this for weeks now, since this isn’t bound to the fact that “everybody starts in the same area so during startup it is normal to end up in overflow” one can’t but wonder if there will ever come a proper solution. Or if people will just start leaving, and when people start leaving that often becomes a snowball.
It honestly scares me for the future of the game, because WvWvW is one of the things that should keep people playing after hitting max level.
And if that fails, people will not stick around. And currently it is failing, the queueing is simply not working properly.

As mentioned one of the things that would help is an indictaion of your position in the queue.
Another one is, people that don’t leave the spawn area in X amount of time should get booted. There are simply too many “inactive” people hanging around in WvW taking up spots for people that are queuing.

In short WvWvW really needs some love and attention from the devs.
