Can't Find a match as Killer (This problem is going on for a long time now)

Will you ever fix this issue please ? I want to play killer but I cant find a single match as a killer the whole day but late at 3:00AM I manage to somehow find a match as killer but why should I stay awake late at night ? ..there are people whose lobby get filled in 2 minutes and then there are people whose lobby gets filled in like 30mints or an hour but some just cant find match. I know dedicated servers would solve this problem but even if you don't want to give us dedicated servers please fix this problem so everyone could play what they want to play. This was not a problem a year ago but it is now. Please devs fix it ASAP! Thank you

    I don't have any problems. maybe you should be a better killer with good internet and you will not get dodged.

    after sitting in a lobby a few min you might have to reset the lobby as it might be bugged.

    So I'm saying if a SWF group join your lobby but can't connect fully( they'll be in a infinite loading screen and still taking up a slot on your server)

    Have you tried to restart the game? Or to switch to survivor lobby for a moment? That usually works for me.

    What rank are you playing at? Rank 1&2, in my experience, have long cue times. Also, where about are you playing from, geographically? If you do not mind me asking.

    I am from Pakistan and I'm currently at rank 6 killer but it doesn't really matter if I'm rank 1 or 20 it is a long wait time. This was not an issue a year ago, why is it now ?

    @Nero Are you a PC Player? If so, go into steam and right click Dead By Daylight. Then select local files and verify the integrity of the game files. This may help fix your issue. Otherwise if you are playing on Console I think you maybe out of luck.

    Did you plug it in?
    Have you tried hitting the side of the machine?
    Maybe blow into the cartridge?

    Honestly the only ideas I can think of.

    Devs just need to fix matchmaking. Like, allow people within 5 ranks to group together. 
    Ex: 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, 16-20. 

    This would definitely fix some of the issues.

    Some of my friends told me that this issue is because now these days there are much more killers playing DBD because of some buffs and nerfs to the survivor sides. can this be an understandable reason guys ? I think it might be

    No, currently theres a bug with matchmaking and raking system.
    If you noticed theres no rank 1 survivors in your lobby since they made it if you lose 1 game you derank to rank 2 this problem occured.
    This happens everywhere im in EU and i cant fin games at 3 pm at rank1, you will have to derank to like rank ~10 so you can catch more ppl.

    Probably because of region lock.

    Do you find games fast on Survivor?
