Seeing Queues/status/etc

[Blambil]

<p>Having spent, as others have, quite a bit of time waiting in queues, not knowing how long it would be...trying to decide which level of Character to play/etc.....</p><p>It would be nice to see a summary, by level, and by map, both of how many people playing, and how many people are queued.. Something like:</p><p>Level 20-29 ---- 12 player (Gears) --- 342 playing, 9 queued ---- 24 player (Ganak) --- 293 playing, 11 queued  ---- 48 player (etc), 1023 playing, 33 queued</p><p>etc etc for each level range.</p><p>I'm sure Sony has this data, and is perhaps not ready to make it public, but, in my humble opinion, NOT making this data visible will lead to long-queue-times, etc... if you only knew that, for example, all the action was in level 30-39 Ganak, you could choose to play a character of that level range.</p><p>Ideally, you could see this IN GAME, but for now, just being able to see it on a web page would be a start......</p>

<p>YES!  Now with everybody spread out over 60 levels... we NEED something like this.</p>

[Trawe]

<p>this would help german players very much because it prevents the frustration waitingin order to see if people are looking for matches or not.</p>

<p>Curious how long it would take... etc, I left one of my offhand  chars in queue for Ganak @ Level 50-59 last night... took 2.5 hrs and suddenly, DING, I'm in..</p><p>No status  updates, no visibility, no way of knowing.. I could have dequeued and played many times during that queue time.. had I known..</p><p>You should be able to see status when you make the Queue decision... that would be a good FIRST step.. If you see 3 people waiting for Ganak, and they've already been waiting 45 minutes.. you don't queue..... After you've been in the queue for 30 minutes, the game should pop up a status window, showing you queue status, and asking if you want to stay in queue..</p>

<p>It would also be nice to queue up for say first available of certain diferrent zones for instance add myself to first available ganak or smugglers but not gears because I never need those tokens.  This will also be good for when they add new zones and you want to queue up for those but not the old zones which you never want to see again.</p>

<p>OP, this is a great idea, can we please get this implemented as soon as possible. Poster above me, that is a good idea too, but being able to see the queue would help with that problem.</p>

<p>Would lend my support totaly for this - have spent 3 weeks now trying to get into a Den match on Euro server with no success - sorry it ran once while I was on (and our team lost!)</p>

[Grumble69]
