New Scenario Matchmaker Test 27/01/2026

Thank you for your effort to improve the SC experience!

Are you aware of the fact that some addons block the new SC window from showing up? And those are some delivered with very commonly used addon packs like VinyUI

So far I've found that: ea_scenariolobbywindow addon prevents the new interface from showing up at all.

Unfortunately some information and option is missing (can't enter preferences window, and the info on queue times and needed classes does not appear), and i have yet to find out which addon does that.
If someone maybe can provide more clarity on that.

kudos, looking forward to trying it out when I get home!

Unified Random Queue

Instead of separate queues per scenario map, there's now a single random scenario queue, which will improve queue speed and map variety. We're just testing this single queue on PTS, and behind-the-scenes we're discussing how best to handle Weekend Warfronts and other Scenario types, which we'll share more on later.

There should be a separate queue for solo players and maybe 2. And a separate queue for premeids 3-6. If someone waits too long for a scenario, they can switch to the order side. The reward for participating and winning should be significantly higher than it is now. There should be a choice between running around Praag for 2 hours or playing a few scenarios.
