I skip how unbalanced the attack vs defense rant for another day
So I a single player
I load up my mechs etc
An Icon flashes planet X needs attack/defend
I click on the icons get everything ready and wait and wait and wait
twice for over and hour ( I had a book to read anyway)

so what should be the expected wait time
10 min 15min?

Don't wait for longer than 5 minutes.

After 5 minutes, the match has started, and a new one will not start on that planet until the current battle finishes.

More than one battle can take place on a planet at any given time. That said, using the pop ups and not waiting longer than 5 mins in queue before trying elsewhere has been working for me.

It is still so wrong that one segment of players have to wait for ages , yet another can get fast matches.

I've been waiting 10 min per. No joy today at all. Not. One. Match.

And I thought there could only be one battle going on per planet at any one time?

Look for a planet that has activity were you see there are attacker wins, then drop there. Catch a really active one and you might now have to wait for more than 5 mins.

Just dropped in my first match of the day. I was the lost puggie in a WoL 11 man, and "we" won, in spite of me.

:P

Thanks to WoL for carrying me along.

5 mins or look for "attack wins" to be more than 0 for where the action is.
