I just waited 30+ minutes in a Fireteam Que

#1

So, I realize that there is a flood of these posts… but why can I not even play as a Fireteam now? I have crossplay enabled, I stayed in que for roughly 6 minutes while watching it cycle through connecting, placing and matchmaking. After doing this 5 times I just ditched out and came here to post… what’s up with this? I’m OK with Predator que times being long, but not even connecting as Fire Team is just depressing.

Mild rant here - Illfonic is losing the player base due to frustration over the meta, they cannot afford to lose players that WANT to play but cannot due to their server issues.

Yes this is what happens, there is empty player slots but they don’t ever fill. Illfonic should have fixed this at launch but apparently they doesn’t have this problem so they can’t see how common this is.

I also experienced a 15 minute wait time at FIRE TEAM and a 40 minute wait time at PREDATOR.
This has been going on for the past two days.
Has matchmaking broken down?
Or is there simply a decline in players?

The queues are completely broken on PC. Endless matchmaking loop of Placing, Connecting and back to Matchmaking.

It was perfectly fine last night and i could find matches within 30-40 secs. There’s clearly something broken on their end. Every other day their server side shit goes tits up. Pathetic!

Maybe it was a fluke but normally I matchmake as FT and now I tried as “whatever” and it got me a match very quickly.
Try it out guys and report.

Yes it’s very awesome to first wait 5-10 mins for a game as fireteam then have the lobby not filling up.

U gotta have to love those predators that go full tryhard in a 2vs1 or 3vs1 match!

#8

after 2 or 3 mins, back out and retry and 99% of the time you’ll get right in.
Seriously, some of you are causing your own problems

#9

I mean… we do wait 20+ minutes on an alright day, gotta vent somehow lol

#10

Tried this multiple times I really doubt we’re causing the problem the game has been running fine for me for weeks now multiple people are having this issue

I cant even get a match now. I keep getting connecting and then cooldown as FT.

Проблема бесконечного поиска за “Отряд” ,приблизительное время поиска 22-30 секунд ,но не подключается к лобби все время Поиск игроков→размещение→подключение→восстановление→Поиск игроков ,и так по бесконечному кругу ждал несколько раз по 20 и по 35 минут и все безуспешно ,сегодня аналогичную проблему утром видел у русских стримеров ,они не могли присоединиться к частному и к обычному матчу.

И как это исправить или как скоро это исправят ?Если проблема в поиске предлагаю сделать принудительно включенную функцию Кроссплатформ для всех устройств .

The problem of infinite search for the “Squad”, the approximate search time is 22-30 seconds, but does not connect to the lobby all the time search for players→placement→connection→recovery→Search for players, and so on an endless circle waited several times for 20 and 35 minutes and all without success, today I saw a similar problem in the morning with Russian streamers ,they could not join a private and normal match.

And how to fix it, or how soon will it be fixed ? If the problem is in search, I suggest making the cross-Platform feature forcibly enabled for all devices .

Dead game is dead

Dude, why would you wait in a Fireteam queue for 30 minutes? I mean, I know matchmaking might be a bit bugged, but if you enter an empty lobby, simply bounce out and try again. It works for me 99.9% of the time. Never wait for 30 minutes for a Fireteam lobby lol.

There have been issues with matchmaking since last night. I guess they’re looking into that and other server issues now. However they haven’t updated their social pages stating so, lmao. I just saw this on a comment on Twitter…
