BAF & LFG woes

I just sat in the LFG queue for over 30+ min. I had selected willing to join a BAF in progress. I did a bunch of WW stuff and made items, sold some junk, etc. the queue said it was a <1min queue the whole time. so I finally gave up and went to the pocket-d only to find that if you are in the LFG you CAN'T be invited to a team.

It takes 15+ min to create a team, it's by far the longest part of the process.
99.99999% of all BAF start with 1 person forgetting to select enter and being dropped from the team.


my point is that I should have been able to sit in the BAF queue and get one of those last positions on a team that failed to get 100% entered. that and the queue system LIED about how long I would have to wait.

these new TF are terrible hard to setup and LFG is worthless. Team leaders should be able to browse the LFG queues for people. EVERYONE that isn't already on a team but wants to BAF should be in the queues.

The cut seen has got to go, BAF is barely a week old and I HATE it already. After waiting for 15-20 min for your team to form it's pointless to watch it over again.

It's not lying. It's an average, one which is heavily skewed by pre-formed teams.

another BAF tried to start with just 17 people and we failed to start and I was placed into the queue and didn't know I was in the queue and couldn't be invited to another team.

It appears that the LFG pane is a work in progress. The currently accepted method of getting on an Incarnate trial is:

  1. Go to the Rikti War Zone.
  2. Set your teaming flag to, "Looking for Trial."
  3. State in Broadcast that you are LFT, either Lambda or BAF

Cheers,

Johnny

This depends on your server. On Victory, for instance, Pocket D is the place to go. There are typically 3+ trials forming at once there.

On Liberty we use RWZ, Pocket D, and Midnighter's Club depending on who's running it. =P

Virtue, due to the RPers that are in the D, usually has RWZ or Midnighters or Cimerora as the starting point. Though, when things are slow for the RPers, we use Pocket D (or studio 55).

That's probably why Pocket D isn't the place used on Infinity to form leagues; out of respect to the RP'ers.

RP'ers get respect?

Not on infinity. And some folks start them there (PD) but most are out of RWZ on Infinity.
