Inaccurate Battleground Timers

Back when I played this before it was called classic, battlegrounds would pop inside other battlegrounds. Your position in queue was never paused.

If you aren’t going to reproduce that, at the very least I’d like it so that the queue timers would pause along with my actual queue position, while inside other battlegrounds, so that I can kind of see how much longer I have until one will pop.

Sure.

You got it, buddy.

Confused.

If you are already in BG A, why does it matter if BG B’s queue pops?
And if you enter 1 BG, it only makes sense you lose your queue position on the other

Don’t be confused.

I called my uncle at Nintendo and he’s going to fix it.

Thanks, I needed the laugh.

BG B’s will never pop, in classic, unlike vanilla. I mentioned that in the first paragraph.

The reason is because your position in Queue is paused, however the timer isn’t. So, let’s say it say the last 10 players waited 2 hours for AV, mine will say I have waited 8 hours, because of all the pausing that has taken place on my position, but not on my timer. I’d like the timer to be more accurate and pause along with my position. So, that when I see I have ~10 minutes I don’t go use the bathroom and miss my chance to enter.

So you are saying that when you queue 2 BG’s
when you finish the 1st one, your UI timer acts like you have been counting down the entire time, but the real timer has done it’s normal thing of holding you back in line until you finish the 1st BG.

And so the UI part falsely makes you think its going to pop the 2nd BG in 3 minutes, when in reality it is 30 minutes?

Yes. It pauses the queue and not the queue timer.

In vanilla it never paused the queue, so the queue timer was accurate. If they aren’t going to make it like vanilla, in making it so queues don’t pause, at least make it so that the timers are accurate and do pause.

Now we know how old you are

Not you…gythriel

The queue pausing may be a function carried from using the modern host
But yes, you are right, the UI timer should reflect proper what the host says.

You should repost in the bug forum, and maybe do an ingame bug report as well. Just maybe write it up a little different, as you can see, even i was confused about what you were trying to show us.

Are you sure?
I could have seen the movie with your grandmother.

Well, maybe one of her friends, she was probably married
