What are the new queue alerts?
FACEIT Matchmaking Season 9 adds new sound cues when the match is found, the server is ready, and the knife round goes live. Now, you can tab out during the queue and get a reminder when it's time to play. Live on August 05.
Do I need to enable anything?
No, they're on by default from August 05 and you can adjust them in your FACEIT Account Settings.
Will I hear them if I'm in-game, tabbed out, or if the website/client is minimised?
Yes, the prompts play through the website or FACEIT Client whether you're tabbed into another window or have FACEIT minimised.
Do they work for every queue?
Yes, these apply to all games and match types, so whether you’re playing FACEIT Matchmaking, ESEA League, or in a club, the new sounds can make sure you don’t miss the start of the match.
