Queue Time

[Spoonman]

Greetings

Ive really started to get tired of the long BG Queues that the game has today, it takes like 20min to get into a Random BG
I would love if it was instant and Im wondering if someone got a plan on how to get the queues faster?

Myself I would find it pretty fun if they implented some kind of "join Gurubashi Arena" fight that is on all the time and where u can just go nuts. Alliance VS Horde or just a completly free for all

If you want instant queues go with premade

10 players for WSG and you will get in fast.

[Maradar]

Queue as a tank or healer

You could transfer to an other server which has a 'better' battlegroup. Only way I can think of.
Ow and premades yeah.

Drakt'hul EU Horde, random takes on average 30+mins at the best. When you queue as a group of 5 then it's much more better (10-20mins). And since I'm working on my second Conqueror I queue up alone only for WSG/AB and that's about 10-15mins.

The problem in our battlegroup is lack of Aliance players. If I'm not mistaken, they are planing to create one battlegroup in Cata.

We're currently expecting both normal and rated battlegrounds to be cross-battlegroup (within a region) for the launch of Cataclysm. So, players queueing from anywhere in north america (for example) could play vs players on any north american battlegroup, etc. This applies to all regions, not just north america.

Ive tried premade and then its like 10min queues instead

I recently started to PVP much more than I formerly did, and actually set up a few premades for WSG, nearly one half of the time i did this the queue still took over 10 minutes on some of them. After we did the first one they started to get shorter.

Yes, because you can que as a tank for a battleground... um did you not read anything he wrote other then the title of the post?

As far as the OP goes if you think 20 minutes is bad now try back in 1.9,1.10, etc, you could be in que for literately 1/2 a day before getting in most the time.

premades are indeed the way to go, or come to whatever thrall's battlegroup is and roll alliance, instant ques all the time lol.

Nice only 20 min queue for random bg. I had 45 min queues yesterday for the whole day. Fun times.

The question is, what is the chance to win. Lately my ratio is over 70% win (in AB/WSG). I rather wait a bit and win then instant queue for lose, but that's just me

That would be one of the best things coming with Cata you sir, really sparked some hope for my dying pvp life! =)

The long que time is dur to horde/aliance imbalance, frostmourne server gets between 15-30min que times some nights, on the contrary aliance characters that i know that play frostmourne get INSTANT que times for any bg they desire.

[Nikoll]

Transfer ally and it's instant

It's not solely based on the server because stonemaul has double the amount of ally than horde yet horde has 10 min queues. Probably based on the bgroup ratio.

This and more players will join the alliance faction due to large amount of worgen rerolls come dec 7th.

[Nose Nuggets]

Thats what you get when everyone trash talks Alliance and everyone moves horde.

I love my 30 SECOND queues.

[Kharismal Abyss]

I get ~5 minutes on Horde Frostmourne-US Bloodlust Battlegroup, it's not too long and not too short.

Would you rather get a queue every 30 seconds and lose or get a queue every 10 minutes and win? I know what I'd choose...

So far, for me it doesn't even matter wether I go with a premade or solo, my queue is the same somehow.
In fact, I've been doing ALOT of WSG this weekend and I've had even shorter queue's whenever I soloed than I had with 5-10 man premades.

Nothing really on topic though.

You will always be able to find 1 available slot easier then 5-10. When you queue with multiple people, it tries to match you with another group of equal size.

You will almost always get a queue for a weekend BG quicker then a non weekend BG.

Then explain me why 90% of the people seem to have shorter queues in groups?

Also, filling up a WSG with 1 person is harder then filling one up with 10.
