oQueue & Website Suggestions Thread

I think i wrote it might not be fully understandable so i would like to post a example:


So lets say that Player A makes a Premade: He is a very good pvper with 2300 live rating in 3v3 in 2v2 he sucks (only 1400 rating) he thinks that 2v2 is a unreal bracked anyway and 5v5 he never liked to play...

As you would suppose normal player would wanna play 3v3 with Player A because Player A knows all the taktiks and uses all his cds properly in 3v3 thx to his exp. So its a lot of fun and normal players would wanna use oqueue again becasue after they played with Player A they know that they can also find very good mates to have fun with on oqueue. Not only in traidchat like most serius players do.

What does make this 2300 player trust oqueue people and what would prevent them from using oqueue people more?
When he does a Premade with 2300 minimum rating (BG rating at the moment) he gets some 5v5 heros too and some very good 2v2 players that never played 3v3 a lot so he is having a bad exp the way it is right now. + and most important he loses 100 rating with 1 lsoe and only gain 10 rating with 1 win so he nneds to win 11 and only lose 1 to get only 10 rating.

100 -11x10 per win = 10

With the suggestion i mentioned above he would have the possibility to only search players with 2100-2300 rating in 3v3 and prehaps search other brackets like 2v2/5v5 also but with more rating so he can make shure they have enoth player skill to compensate theyre gab in 3v3 rating. So the players would be more reliable and he would faster invite or contact the player on the waitlist. This again would make a better view for the addon oqueue for the players that queue for premades and the players how make premades means more player use the addon like you want them to use it with brain and respect against other players and the addon itself.

What does not having the possibility to sepearate 2v2/3v3/5v5 cause overall for the qualitly of players and there aktions like excessively fast leaving groups etc.
It clearly makes player that wanna gain rating / or have fun and not only play for caping with how ever... wanna use oqueue more what also would help the low people rate sometimes and would make the "carma problem" (people dont care they go in and leave becasue they think that most players are in very strong words "trash" anyway or those kind of people that leave after the encounter / lose)

If someone hase a question i would love to anser what i meant above. I try to put it as easy a s possible but im 4 shure not the best annotator.

Zitat from: tiny
when waitlisting for an arena group, your best arena rating, from 2s, 3s, and 5s, is used.
your rbg rating does not impact this.

please make sure to update to verify this is the case

Thank you 4 youre fast anser i did understand that Bg rating means = the rating is without RBG so its only 2v2/3v3/5v5. I did change my first post above!

But the post still keeps his importantness because when the difference between the rating in one bracked is too hight like 500 or mroe rating the rating lose from palyer a with high rating in 4 example 2v2 is super hight while player b with low rating dos not lose any points withc is good 4 him but the higher rated palyer is not gona play with the other person witch cases a gab on player that searches 4 arena matches.

What do you think about the final edit of my post tiny?

I would love to hear youre thirst impressions on this topic!

Thanks in advance sir.
Make an achievment category. Im a achievment hunter and there a lot of achievments who needs anothers players to do.
That will be really helpfull. If theres a "roleplay" category, why not achievment?


Sry for english.
I haven't read the other suggestions so I don't know if this has been suggested before.

I think it would be really nice to have a "time active" column. That way you could sort by that, and that would help the groups not be changing places every second when there's lot of people posting groups, new groups would automatically go to the bottom of the list and coupled with the search function it'd be much easier to find the groups you want without having to pause all the time.
@thraw
sorting by leader name keeps the list from moving often
also, clicking the **PAUSED** label will pause the list while you look for a group

if you're looking for a fresh group, you can set your filters and turn on 'announce premades'. if something new qualifies for your filter, it'll be shown in your chat area. just remember to have a filter set or you'll see a TON of premades flowing by

How so? If theres A, Ba and C players listing dungeons, and Be player posts a new group, it will still move C and everything below it down the list.

What made me think about my suggestion was today I was looking for a fresh 25N SoO, I'd start browsing from the top(sorted by ilvl requirement) and make my way down WLing groups that fit my needs. Thing is names are so similar when they're for the same raid, and there's so many of them on a busy night like Tuesday's, that if something moves it'll take me a few seconds to find where I was last browsing through to continue my search for groups.

Call me lazy but it's just a quality of life suggestion I thought wouldn't be too hard to implement, I can easily live without it but it'd be nice if I had that.
if you're looking for a 25N soo, did you check 'qualified' and set the spyglass to "soo25 & normal" ?

I thought the search terms only looked at titles, I guess not! That simplifies things, thanks.
@tiny
you didnt reply to my suggestion yet.

If you think its not nessesery or impossible to do let me know pls i wanna talk about it...
i mean what do you think is more important to reach more people to use oqueue first? What are youre goals atm?
