I was under the impression your role had no bearing whatsoever in group finder, as far as tactical flashpoints are concerned, which is what I was referring to earlier.

If I have roughly 3 hours to play in the evenings and I sit in que for roughly 2 hours then it's about time to close shop on this game. Was hoping 2.7 would help bring the population up some but it is looking real grim. I have a feeling 2.8 will be a huge let down imo.
Are you new to MMOs or something? Even if the queues do take a little bit longer, this can simply be explained away by each time there is a new playable content release (DF/DP NiM and the new FPs in this case), people tend to gravitate toward them for the first few weeks. With more people doing those things, it is rather obvious that the queue for the old content (PVP/GSF/HM FP/etc) is going to suffer as a result. Unless the game population is growing at an exponential pace, the above is actually quite close to a "zero sum" game in other words.

Give it another week or two and queues will gradually return to normal, it wouldn't be the first time this has happened.

Yes because "respect" coming from people you have never technically met and likely will never talk to again after quitting actually means something. You speak as if it is some badge of honor when in reality it is just a contrived notion of how people perceive *you* which is something that can't really be quantified or measured in a tangible fashion. That is unless you actually go around asking people "do you respect me?" as if you're doing some sort of poll for youself which would be exceptionally vain and petty beyond all reason.

You naive idealists make me lol. This is precisely why people shouldn't take your "perceptions" regarding the game seriously.

Another 'game is dead' thread? Arg. No, a dead game would be 2 people total across all servers. Even back in the ancient times when we were lucky if there were 10 people on fleet at one time, the game wasn't dead just spread out.

I really wish naysayers like yourself would stop with the dead game is a coming threads. Seriously. If you don't enjoy the game like the rest of us do, just stop paying your sub and find something else to play. SWTOR isn't the only game in the universe.

BTW, the tactical fps pop super fast for me. So I'm not sure what the issue is?

I think queue times really depends how far off you play from peak hours. For me, I'm never really able to play during peak time, just an hour or so after.

Oh, and I may of exaggerated the queue by a small amount. If we're being realistic here, my server normally never has the queue go over ~40 minutes for FPs or WZs. And for the Tactical FPs, the queue is even less (somewhere around instant pop-20 minutes).


Nothing wrong with a small exaggeration, right? Naysayers do it all the time.

Denerio, just wondering what server are you on? I know some ques pop up faster on some servers that are well populated at different hours.
Speaking of hours, what time zone are you in?

Seems that when 2.7 came out, a few folks have made similar doom and gloom threads.
