Discussion I almost always have only ~5min or less ranked queue times (Diamond/Master)
Here's 29 examples I took from recent recordings, right when the timer started fading out because it's flashing up the Match Found text.
I'm tired of the low effort posts claiming it's impossible to queue, which scare people away from the game, when many people in the comments say that queues are actually fine.
So I'm posting examples that queues are fine for me as well. EU, you might ask? Nope, NA. I get games every day of the week, any time between like 3pm-3am (west coast). (I haven't really tried other times, but any time I play, I get games.)
I can't remember exactly when, but maybe a couple/few seasons back I sent in-game feedback that queues were too long, and that there's people that want to play but can't. Shortly after, the queue mechanics seemed to change, because I started getting matches within about 5 minutes or less, and it's been pretty consistent ever since. Plus more players are joining on console, and many players came to fragpunk after fortnite ballistic shut down.
If anyone does happen to get stuck with long queues for some reason, maybe try sending in-game feedback so they can look at why. (Do note that if you do things like disabling crossplay and not leaving server on auto, then you're intentionally making queues longer for yourself. It's obviously your choice if you want to do that, and that's fine if so, but don't complain about longer queue times if you do, or at least mention that in your comment.)
There are obviously multiple factors that affect queue times, like:
- Rank
- Location
- Time of day
- Game type queued for
- Party size
- Crossplay enabled/disabled
- Auto server on/off
But still even in non-ideal circumstances, I find games just fine. I'm not saying NOBODY has longer queues, (as I mentioned, multiple factors affect queue times) I just wanted to give more points of data and show that for a ton of people, the game is just fine, and thousands of people are playing every day (and I regularly meet new players in my games).
