It takes me 2-30 minutes to find a game .

Its nice to play agaist skilled players but i don't like making 400.000 per hour

I belive this effects only people with higher elo because PGI made it more selective since last patch .

I couild be wrong . If you are new player having trouble finding a match please let them know

It should not take over 5 minutes !

No option for less than 30 seconds... didn't vote.

(I take that back, I voted for everything, because I could.)

2 minutes is the length of a serch before it goes "failed to find a match"

So you withing the 1 serch which is good for you.

Didn't they bump that up to 3 minutes in the latest patch? Too lazy to check patch notes but I recall reading that somewhere.

EDIT: I lied, I'm not too lazy and I was right.

Yeah you need a less than 30 seconds options. I think the longest I've ever waited on a match in the last year was 45 seconds.

Two minutes or less, no matter if I am dropping solo, with four mans, or with twelve. Its a little longer after the last patch but not too bad.

Depends, if I solo que or drop in a 12 man. Solo / 4 man = 1 min. 12 man sometimes = 10 - 15 minutes of failing to find a match....

I have no issue with waiting a few more seconds to have a more even matchup of players. Its worth it to not have to see half your team running trial mechs imo.

Kindof a poorly made poll for a couple of reasons, but I believe he is not talking about 12-man queues. Also, many of the worst players in this game are veterans, and many new guys are quite good, "veteran" is in no way related to "high Elo."

Since it's supposed to stop searching after 3 minutes, if you're getting longer then that, you're looking at some kind of bug.
