I'll go back to pugging until PGI gets a better matchmaking system in place.

The mistake a lot of people seem to be making is trying to attack (or defend) some world out in BFE without a premade 12 man. Unless you have 12 players, you won't even get a ghost drop. It's critical that you go to the hotspots if you want a game, especially if you're solo or with a small group.
Think of it this way.... EACH planet has a queue. Pick which queue you want to join.... wisely.

*other obvious advice*
I know you're trying to help but the system is legitimately messed up.
Me: Picking planets with a history of recent battles shown in the window, ticket counts moving up or down, and alerts flashing in the UI bottom right or flashing icon in the planet overlay list makes no impact on how long I wait.
OBVIOUSLY if you pick a planet nothing is going on, you will wait forever. People know that. But that ain't entirely it.
I've dropped now 5 times in total since CW launched. With groups big and small and solo as well. All times of day. And I guarantee you I'm targetting the high activity planets. Probably a total of 15-20hrs cumulative wait time. Yep.
The queueing is messed up for alot of people.

This is the problem. There is a known issue where the match screen doesn't show how many people are queued up. So if there are 11 people and you leave 2 minutes before someone else shows up.....
Click on a popup, that way you know the planet is being actively attacked/defended, and then stay there. Otherwise just go back to normal mode.

I'll be glad if I can manage to connect to 20 games let alone get a point from each of them, considering half of my drops have been "unopposed" so far.

So unless you are going into a que with a 12 man from the start, you may never find a match. And until they open the planets up to more ques and not just 1 battle at a time, wait for the next and HOPE you are picked for the next battle, you may keep getting bumped back in the que over the pre-made 12 mans.

we were dropping with 4-8 people today the we split up our 4 teams to be able to drop as many times as possible on the same planet. Saw each other maybe once or twice out of roughly 50 games today.
