New way to instant BG queue

[shawnwhite]

Testing on US-Burning Blade (Horde)
About 10 Q and drops, using the macro Ion78 posted.. no insta queue yet, I'm in the 60-69 bracket.
Doing it manually yields the same result.

There would still need to be enough people to form a bg in the first place to even get a queue let alone an instant queue

Also, If your requeing and requeing... can you really call 2 minutes of requeueing any different from sitting in the queue for two minutes? Its not instant no matter what, until 2 or 3 minutes of repeating, does the "instant" queue pop.. lol

Tested last night was working then. will retest tonight.

Queue.

Wait for aprox 6 seconds.

leave queue.

Repeat.

I think it's working for me. Normally it takes 20-30 mins for the bg to pop up, or however long it takes to finish the tb peninsula quests, but after cancelling and requeueing multiple times I got an instant queue. However there are times when I do it 20 times and still nothing. Tested on 3 level 85 eu hordes. Can't test on ally since they pretty much got instant queue already =p

I usually just make it bug. Leave queue like twice and then when queue is up, I join the queue again from the tab. Then leave queue and rejoin, and it should work. Has done this since patch, and still works

I don't get this at all... are you sure Blizz didn't just fix que times or something? lol Ever since Tuesday I have been getting instant to near instant ques when selecting any BG of my choice, and this is without leaving and joining and leaving ques... So, I have not needed to do this thing...

What is happening here? lol

There is no exploit here. There is a bug and the only workaround is re-queuing.

When you queue for a BG you'll either get a bugged queue or a working one. Since so many people are sitting in bugged queues for 30+ minutes, there is plenty of room in the BGs. If you don't get your queue to pop within 1 or 2 minutes of queuing, go ahead and keep waiting to see - you'll never get it.

I dont know if i just was lucky but it worked, I did as told and bg poped instant, and be4 i hade average waittime on 9 min. But as I said this might jsut be luck gonna try it out more.

The problem is: There was a limited numbers of BGs going around at same time, leading to those 10mins + queues. Now they either removed the cap of BGs running at same time or just added much more servers to support BGs. As for requeing... it's a bug yes, but not that because you get instant queue, it's because some times the queue bugs and you will be waiting forever. This problem started with patch 4.0.3 and the fix people found on blizzard's forum was to wait 1 minute higher than your queue estimated time, if nothing happens just logout to another char, then back to yours.

For me it's 10 min -.-

[Asstastic]

Queue times were 5 mins for me, even tested by first letting it take 5 mins to pop. Then I tried this method....worked on the 4th try.

This is interesting info and this really enlightens things... Though, I never really noticed this problem before...

Hmm, I am in a PVP guild so I'll bug em later when I get on tonight to test this out with me. Countdowns in vent MIGHT BE BACK to get into the same BGs if the que times are actually down to near instant cause of this.

I assume this is just a fix by blizzard, I hope they finally fixed the Bgs
