PSA to killers who lobby dodge

a PSA especially true for console players, not used to dedicated servers:

killers, when you dodge a lobby the survivors will remain waiting for a killer with precedence over anybody else.

this means that if you try to rejoin a lobby immediately, you will most probably join the same survivors, over and over again.

solution: don’t lobby dodge, or just turn off the game.

    Is this a bait thread, or are you serious? 🤣

    I mean, the few times I've done it I get new survivors. 🤷‍♀️

    But I dont think anyone was doing it to make people wait longer..

    The way I see it if I get put in the same lobby of the people I'm trying to dodge most likely being toxic survivors the longer they have to wait aswell and you know what, I can live with that xD

    I honestly didn't expect so much passive aggressiveness, and my expectations were very low lol.

    I do it occasionally (four toolboxes is a nope from me), but I've never gotten matched with the same lobby twice.

    It does not work out this way. With queue times being what they are, those survivors get the next killer and then when you make it back to queue you instantly get a different group! Until more people start queueing as killer, or until all killers start dodging a given group, the ball is in the killers' court for dodging.

    If you see 4 blendettes each with toolboxes you equip Franklin's knock the item out of each then dc.

    Or so i hear.

    The only reason I dodge lobby is because the only way to beat a key or toolbox in their current state is to play like a animal and that's too ez.

    I rarely dodge, but I have never seen the same survivors join my next lobby if I do.

    I bet you wont get the same people if you make them wait out the full minute and then send them back to the lobby five times in a row

    I find waiting 30 seconds to a min usually stops getting the same group again if you having that issue.

    Ya no thx I dodge when I see keys or more then 2 toolbox’s or 2-4 flashlights lol that’s not fun if the survivors don’t want killers to dodge don’t bring in items that will make them do so

    I never understood why games do this?

    Back in the day, Call of Duty would have you join the same lobby when you left it over and over, until you had to wait about 2 minutes to join a different lobby.

    Never faced the same group.

    If this DID work, someone could, I don't know, hold a SWF hostage and prevent them from playing at all. That wouldn't be good, would it?

    Or they could just decide to play however and whoever they want to play since it’s just a video game?
