Rumors on Reddit: Is Blizzard planning a Dungeon Finder for M+?

https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/1n70xu6/we_are_so_getting_a_solo_queue_system_for_mythic/

While I personally don’t see this necessary or even working at all, current surveys hint at changes regarding the Dungeon Group (Finder) Systems being considered.

In my opinion such a feature for Mythic+ would just turn out badly, like Guided Games in Destiny 2 did. The good players won’t use it and the bad players won’t have enough people using the system.

Thoughts?

It will work 100% just like solo shuffle worked for PVP.

People love the idea of click and play.

Solo Shuffe has a massive problem with Healers not queueing. Like everything else in PvP does.

It will be likely faster to just apply manually to 5 groups instead of joining a 15 minute auto-queue for a key group you have no control over and no guarantee that they will play their class right since you can’t see their rating.

At this point I hope they implement it, kinda sick of all the m+ autoqueue requests. They have gotten their punishments for leavers now, let them have their autoqueue aswell. Not like it will affect me in any way, shape or form anywas.

I guess they have to learn by experience that it won’t work so they stop asking.

You know, there’s questionnaires contain all sorts of speculative question.

None of them mean that Blizzard actually making these things. They’re just asking what players think of the idea.

I have seen plenty of these questionnaires, and not everything gets implemented, even the things that get shared on Social media.

Blizzard are just asking question, not stating that something is coming.

what i can say is that there is a far bigger chance i would do m+ if there was a solo que option then if not, perhaps that is the point of it to figure out wheter or not more people would play it or not

See, that’s the problem tho. It’s easy to say “I would do that”. But do you and others also ask yourself “would it even work to begin with?”.

From a system perspective, it might be not as easy or satisfying to do in experience as you and others imagine it.

As long as i have manual alternative, well, why not :man_shrugging:
You don’t have to be a psychic to see that queue for dps will be 30min lol.

Should be interesting to see how it’ll get received.

But if people act bad and ruin it for themselves by leaving and/or getting reported that’s on them not the system.

  • Any plans for updates to Mythic+? Solo queue?

There’s no plans to implement a solo queue. The concerns still remain about random matchmaking for a system with a chance of failure being a mismatch that leads to frustration and toxicity. Ideally, they want to focus on improving the group finder so players can find others with similar goals.

Mythic+ in general is now thought of as a season over season system rather than an expansion over expansion system. The learnings and philosophy is evolving each Season rather than waiting for a new expansion to implement changes.

offical words from blizzard.

If only the OP did a little research from offical sources before posting.

I said “rumors”. I didn’t say “official news”.

Then keep up old man with the lastest offical news.

Wouldn’t be enough to get me to participate.
In the hypothetical case that they would add it.

I wish, but it would kill keys, so I doubt they would ever implement a Dungeon Finder for M+.

Imagine, all you need to do to join for a +8 is have the appropriate item level and have done the previous iteration of the dungeon, so a +7.

On the low end yes

I can see them taking away the ability to pick your own team for keys and put a hefty penalty on top of it if you abandon the group.

They are nowhere near that far gone that they would destroy m+ like that. That would pretty much be signing it’s death warrant.

I believe it.

I would have gambled all my money that Blizzard would brought in an M+ solo queue before they brought in OBR and look how that went.

That’s why you don’t gamble kids.

I would still use this over my own key if my own key couldn’t be blown up.

What is described is not a solo queue system, but more customization for the already existing dungeon finder.

Things like you input criteria, and instead of having to decide who to invite, the system will invite the first ppl that fit that criteria, or that you can search for groups that leader has a resilient key.

Like all the things in the survey are extra functionality that do not remove anything from the existing dungeon finder, just offer extra optional functionality.
