So every time I attempt to do a faction play I find I'm the only one queued in. Nobody else ever shows up.

Am I doing it wrong? I'd like to give it a try...

I recommend getting to know the various units and Clans in teamspeak before committing to anything. My unit, the 12th Bear Guard (12BG) is mostly based in the states with a number of European and Oceanic players and we welcome other unit-less people dropping with us. We are in the Clan server on:

STRANAMECHTY.INFO

PW: StranaMechty

Since you are a Smoke Jaguar, I suggest dropping in SC's channel and hooking up with them. They are a very talented bunch.

If you want to actually get drops with SJ outside of events?

Sadly yes.

Otherwise I would recommend the jade falcons.

Well, maybe, maybe not. Where is it telling you that no one is queued up?

If you go to Faction Play Tab (top of screen) ---> Inner Sphere Map (top left of screen) ----> Attacking / Defending Pane (top right corner of the screen), are you saying that all of the numbers next to the planet names are 0 / 0?

or are you say that once you have chose a planet to attack / defend, when you click on the Invasion Tab, and then the Queue Info tab, you see yellow ticks under the possible groups (for example, 3 single players, a group of 4, and a group of 2), but when you click on attack / defend, only your name shows as populating the attacking / defending group?

If it's the first one, well, it seems like a time period issue - there's low participation at the time you are on. If it's the second one, that's just a visual bug - since a patch a few months ago, it only shows who is in the attack / defend group with you after you have a 10 minute (or one minute) countdown to be the next to play. There may be 10 other people in the queue with you, but you won't get to see who they are until you have all 12 needed, and you're next in line to play.

Greetings Trothkin!
You made the right choice joining our crusade against the Inner Sphere.

Smoke Jaguar is becoming more activ again.
We have a nice little border war with some fierce battles against the evil Kuritas.

As some of the others stated, you have to use teamspeak to have fun.
A mic is not needed (but suggested), but ears are needed Posted Image .
Hearing and following the calls/orders is most important for a nice stay in this dangerous waters.

I send you a friend invite. If you see me or anyone else from Bacon [07] feel free to ask about cw/fp.

We are a one of the most active units(still somewhat small), with players of all skill levels.
Try to do some games with us.

Hope to see you around and always happy hunting!

If you're interested in faction play do not go loyalist... youll be forever disappointed and stuck for at least 7 days being that way.
