Hello!
Considering the long waiting times for SoloQ games on high MMR, would it be possible to implement some kind of system where we can queue from anywhere? I usually sit in queue for a long time and want to do stuff in between such as farming professions, achievements and the similar. If I get a queue pop, then after the game I am unable to queue again since I need to fly / hearthstone all the way back and then fly again to get back to what I was doing. Perhaps an in game command or something similar.
Think this is something that most players would appreciate.
Thanks

As much as I like the idea, a lot of pve players and trolls would abuse it and make the bad matchmaking system even worse. Maybe if you already have 100 victories in solo que or the Mercilessly Dedicated achiev then you unlock this feature. That way you mostly serious players would use it.

I see your point. I agree. Maybe unlock it past a certain rating or define criteria that has to be met before you can use it. Thanks for the reply.

That would be an useful feature for sure, and it is doable server-wise.
I can agree on this, I'd personally suggest unlocking it for the players over 1800 rating or so.

Would be awesome, people from Onyxia barely know there are Solo queues and know where to que

Agreed. Queing on higher ratings atm like this is really difficult.. can't do anything while I wait for ques..

Install DBM, turn on background sound and then minimize until pop.

Why only 3v3 solo queue though? It should be for every arena mode (normal 2v2, 3v3 and 5v5). You can queue BGs from anywhere so I don't see a reason why it shouldn't be the same for arenas. Having to go to specific NPC every time you want to queue arenas with your buddy(s) is completely archaic system in this day and age. Warmane please add commands like ".queue 2v2/3v3/5v5/solo 3v3".

Would agree with this as well. I mentioned SoloQ because when you que 2s/3s etc you can have someone else queue for you. Like this you're stuck next to the npc.

Replied to the wrong comment.
I meant in game. Because I have to sit next to the npc. This works without DBM just with background sound on, but I want to farm professions, achievements, gold etc while waiting in que.

Could it at least be possible to add an npc in Shattrath on Onyxia for solo que ? Feels like noone knows where to que

I have been saying this since the server has launched. Placing Solo q NPC in a basement in stormwind or orgrimmar really kills the solo q population. Placing the Solo Q NPC in shattrath or making it a queue from anywhere like BGs would be better in every conceivable way.

I agree with this totally!
There should be a command for it and made in a way so that its not avaiable inside instances, put together with some further barriers to avoid the PVE folks from trying to exploit anything, like having 150 Arena wins or some sort of Rating Achivement required, like High Five: 1550 or High Five: 1750

Agreed. Hopefully someone from Staff soon tells us if this can / will be done
