We've all been there. You're in a lobby, and theres only 1 space left. You just want someone to join so you can get started. Where oh where will your saviour come from? Will it be one of the 18 spectators? Probably not, because they're just sitting there waiting for one specific player to leave, instead of just joining an empty spot in another lobby.

 

Perhapse if you could Queue for a spot, then we would be able to disern the actuall spectators, from the people just waiting around.

Generally a good idea, will be discussed

Not a good idea.

 

90% of the people will queue up for Scout, Solly, Sniper, Spy.

Without a queueing (engrish?) system people are forced to wait and maybe consider playing another class for once.

And medic will be the fastest, since he will probably get instant matches when he plays...

It doesn't seem that bad of an idea to me. People would eventually join med like they do in lobbies

Excuse me sage, but that doesn't make any sense to me.

Medics (almost) never have to wait for medic slots.

The problem is, that there are more open medic losts than medics available.

 

A queing system would only make waiting for the "S-classes" more comfortable.

If you were to see that you were 20th in line for that spy spot, you'd be more likely to find a different class to play

Not talking specifically about this problem, but on that note, it would be nice if people could queue up for several classes.

For example you could queue for Scout, Soldier, Medic. This would be pretty nice to fill games fast.

Also an option to choose 6s, Highlander or both. Maybe all the alternative modes too.

 

 

Then again, I only know about editing pictures. This should be possible but I don't know how hard it would be to program and implement in lobbies.
