    At rank 1 survivor it takes 10 mins or so to find a match, that's if your lucky and the killer doesn't dodge.

    At rank 1 killer it takes about 20 seconds I'd say.

    Though the game won't let me load in this morning so I don't know if it's any different today compared to normal.

    It's all because of a domino effect. Basically (I think) there are less killers than survivors, hence killer lobby are instant, while every survivor rank gets matched with a lower rank killer (red ranks survivors go with purple ranks killers, purple with green, green with yellow). And it's strange, because there might not be many red ranks killers, but clearly there are many green ranks...

    No, there are more survivors but the fact is that matchmaking is broken. I'm on xbox and is pretty fast for me to find lobby as survivor but it takes at least 5 minutes as killer.

    But i have friend on xbox that have the opposite problem: fast killer lobbies and ages as survivor. Sadly it's the game, we can't do nothing

    Killer queue times on ps4 are pretty much instant at any time, as I learned after doing night shifts. You'll even go against 4-man swf at 6-7 am, can't imagine how long they must be sitting in lobbies for.

    I can get into killer matches instantly. Survivor takes 2 - 3 minutes
