Wide-queue broken?

I swear after each patch this game breaks even more. Me and my friends wanted to queue 5 man yesterday. And we were in queue for 15 mins first time, second time it was 27 min… What is going on? And it was not only the 5 mans, when we were 3 we had 15 mins queues aswell.

Almost like people don’t like 5 stacking, or wide range MM :thinking:

They should play another game, since stacking is apart of every single shooter. Can’t blame people for wanting to play with their friends.

Why they have to go, and not you?

They are happy in their queue that isn’t miserably long.

The system is just broken thats all. Look at CS Faceit, if you 5 man stack there it isnt a problem to get matched against other 5mans. Or 4mans or 3man and duos. Is just a broken matchmaking system.

It’s not…

Problem here isn’t MM. It’s fact that there aren’t many stacks.

You misplace your frustrations.

So you are telling me that there are less 5 stacks in an official F2P game, over a community based matchmaking system in an another game? I mean before this new season. We had 2-3 mins queue, so dont tell me that this update dindnt break anything.

But before this season system didn’t care you were a 5 stack, so it is irrelevant fact.

It’s just a new system that needs adjustmen and is broken thats all. Havent been tested enough. Which is why its broken.

They pretty much made it impossible to find games as stacks now.

I’ve seen this happen in other games. People love playing in stacks when they’re against randoms because it’s easy mode. Against other stacks, not so much.

Funny that.

Our 4th stack player who plays less frequently than my normal 3 person group all but said the game if over for them last night. We don’t want to just play unranked. My 3 person group (silver/gold - gold/plat) that plays 3/4 nights a week cannot play the roles we want without wide-matching.

the systems designed also to kep solo plaeyers facing more solo. Its a very clever way of bringing solo comp, but not just by itself.

Also, solo is by far the most popular way people play this game too so.

What rank range did you have in your 5 man stack?
Maybe just maybe there was no equal wide grip with nearly the same rank range that could be matched with you.

We gotta ask the right questions here. Wide grouping is that their trying to find another group with a similar rank. What was the rank for that 5 stack you had?

Imo this is absolutely fantastic, it’s basically 5 stacks vs 5 stacks only.
Huge improvement over getting rolled every other game because you’re not in a stack yourself.

That’s the condition of wide queueing. You get longer queues.

The 5 stack game I had that was wide took 6 minutes to get a game (so pretty fast for wide queue)

Well you won’t be playing with or against a 4 stack wide group in OW because the number of solo players that want to be teammates of that 4 stack, is zero. And Blizzard knew this.
