When I queue for siege it will either
- make me wait for another player
-
- while I can’t cancle the queue and am forced to close the game
-
- me waiting for another player is still displayed in the guild chat, even though I’m not in queue anymore
or
- instantly put me in a game
-
- with a player that isn’t even offline
-
- the game will be an auto defeat before even starting
Most likely your queue system is broken, we can’t cancel it properly, creating invisible waiting list that the next player will join even though we’re not here anymore

Yep. Same thing. I think they should reconsider how this was implemented. Maybe it’d be best to play with a random player or bot like PVP does… Then have the option of getting 2 guild players together. The issue I see is the odds of both successfully loading is slim. Even PVP has had all kinds of issues, I think most may be sorted at this point but for awhile it barely worked half the time. I feel like this new feature is going to be the same challenge. Without all the game crashes worked out I don’t see how this can be played as a normal coop.

I also have all these same problems.
The instant defeat is the worst because it looks like you’re finally going to be able to play and then instantly it shows defeat.
The entire design is flawed though. The way people play this game is in short boys of time. Like 5-10 minutes. What are the odds that you’re 10 minutes overlap with a guildmate’s 10 minutes? Not great. But it’s actually worse than that because most of those 10 minutes are normally spent in a game actively playing. A time during which you can’t see that a guild mate is wanting to queue for a siege mode game. So the person queueing has to sit there and do nothing because it won’t let you look at anything while you’re queued. Only to discover that the guild member might have been playing their last match before logging off.
Words cannot describe just how bad this feels as a player. Blizzard should be ashamed. This is the worst thing they’ve done since Diablo Immoral. At least this time it was just incompetent design and not the greediest money grab of all time.
F this game.
Update: I uninstalled. It’s not worth my time.
