I can never get a match. The que just keeps counting down and resetting. This game mode has always been a bust. I quit playing years ago an just came back to find not really much has changed. Faction play sucks, because I can never get a match.

groups are prioritized by the matchmaker, so even in a 2 man group is better than dropping alone.

if you are willing to switch sides IS /Clan you can switch to the side, that needs players.

8/12 left side is attackers, right side defenders You always need to add yourself as +1 to the queue you are queueing. So in our example if you are on attacker side(the left side) the number is in reality 9/12 or if you are on defender side 8/13.

if the counter shows 1/0 it could be that nobody is online and willing to play faction play at the moment

or

a match has started only a short time ago, and now you have to wait until a) more other players are coming and a second match is starting b ) the started game is being finished and the people from this now finished match are willing to play again.

hope I was being able to help you.

EDIT. Spelling ad -> add

Faction would be better if known cheats and teams that just want to sit back whilst everyone else pug armours for them were dealt with.

Sorry a couple of years ago I would have written there is a little chance you can get matches in asiatimezone because of the australian guys. But this slight chance has gone to zero.
