I've solo queued for 12+ minutes and my games get played out maybe a fifth of the time. I'm sure it'll get better eventually. | ||

I'm sure I have nothing better to do in life but come to TL make up a story with long queue. Recently 3 votes passed to continue which might suggest that the morons who would purposely vote f2 start to disappear but it still happens occasionally. If I expected someone to actually question that, I would have made a screenshot of that 30 min and post it here so next time if I remember I will. Leo, I'm not sure whether I was on EU server but there were two games where my awp simply did not hit the target it should. Maybe it was my connection or maybe as you said I was kicked to EU server. I'd rather hope it was just my connection. | ||

I'd rather hope it was just my connection. This is the internet and people like to exaggerate a single experience into being a recurring thing. I just find it odd that people are experiencing < 3 round games and long queue times and I have not despite playing for multiple hours daily in groups of anywhere from 1 to 4. I have noticed the solo queues are a bit longer than group queues. 10-15 minutes seems like a very rare occurrence. | ||

100 players are searching for the game. I'd play casual but that many players in one game is too much. 5v5 simply makes it more competitive and fun. | ||

Yeah, so good that you can hear it even when you have the game alt tabbed. <3 On October 14 2012 05:55 Ducci wrote: So it seems that all the servers use F1 and F2 to vote for various things, including scrim continuation votes. For whatever reasons my F keys do not work. Does anyone know how to change it so I can hit a different key to vote? Umm, maybe you have a keyboard that lets you rebind the keys to some other ones. You could also look at the in-game key bindings options and see if you can change them that way with more ease. | ||

I'm not sure if this is related to me alt-tabbing when queue search and watching bw streams but when it finds game, I accept, I am able to move with arrow keys but cannot use mouse or buttons like escape or wasd b etc... It does not always happen tho. | ||

But vast majority of my queues is 15 min + when it says 100 players are searching for the game. 100 isn't very many when you consider that it's matching by location and Elo. If you're searching at an time when your region has few active players, or you have a particularly high Elo, it will take longer to find a match. It apparently expands the acceptable Elo matching window with queue time, so the longer you wait, the worse a match you get. If they've got any sense (and I'm not entirely sure about that) they'll tune it to accept worse matches from the start for these cases. Long queue times put people off matchmaking, which makes it ever harder for the remaining players to find good matches. | ||

We're all annoying with it because it'll pick up everything. Our friend was eatting chips yesterday and you could hear it constantly. You can hear TV/music on in the background. So freaking annoying yet we still want to ingame voice chat if we need to talk to other people but having to sit there for 5-10 minutes of having mics always on is so damn irritating. | ||
