Survivor queues longer than usual? Why?
I can't figure out why the survivor queues have been steadily increasing. There's no way... There's just no way there are less Killers playing in the strongest Killer meta of all time (Hex: Ruin, Hex: Undying, Tinkerer). C'mon peeps!

Is Killer queues are ok? I haven't played killer recently but survivors queues actually seem longer.

They'll never make it ez enough for killers.

Ah the strongest killer meta that can be completely countered in 60 seconds and only works on hyper mobile killers who totally need the help anyways. Totally makes slower killers more viable.
Its not like slower killers are being nerfed in the PTB due to the lowered Pop duration or anything.
Its also not like we aren't in one of the most gen rush heavy survivor meta yet which further makes slower killers less viable.
Nope everything is fine and dandy on the killer side...
I am really having hard to keep up the sarcasm right now while trying to describe the current meta.

If your hex: undying is countered in 60s, you're either very unlucky or blind af. It shows you the survivors aura when they try to break it.

You know I was on both the giving and receiving end of that combo and its far harder to defend then it may sound given that if they stick to cleansing the totem the aura reveal doesn't stay so you'd only have a few seconds into them touching the totem to see them cleansing the totems.
So most survivors(Myself included) wait for the killer to either chase the obsession or hit someone then hop onto the totems when the killer is least likely to notice us and/or least likely to punish them for doing so.
So a lot of the time killers are given a choice to give up their chase and defend the totems and still risk losing them or continue the chase and pray to RNG that undying doesn't go first(Which is a 50/50 chance).

Probably because we're in the down time between rifts. I imagine people are just taking a break.

I wish I could vote this response as the winner!
Your guess sounds the most reasonable, but it's a shame that ExTrA mOtIvAtIoN is required to keep players interested. If I'm being honest with myself, I'm not playing as much because they tease the next patch too early. Waiting three weeks for the "latest greatest" content to come off PTR is a long time to keep players "hyped". I'd rather most the changes be a surprise from now on (Seasons/Leagues style).

Killer queues are almost always less than 15 seconds for me, around the clock.

Killer queues are amazing (short) as a result of cross-play. Survivors on the other hand have to wait up to ten times longer than they did prior to cross-play.

Yeah, late night Survivor specifically, takes me probably 5-10 mins on average to find a room. Afternoon's usually not too bad, though.

BECAUSE US KILLERS ARE TIRED OF YOUR SHENANIGANS!
(Sorry, couldn't resist. :p)
In all seriousness, It's starting to get that time of night, (At least over here.) combine that with the above mentioned Rift closure and yeah, that about sums it up.
Happy games and good luck out there. :)

Too many survivors in the mix and not enough players wanting to play Killer to go around.

It’s definitely a time thing, during the day, my survivor queue takes about 20 seconds to find a game. However in the evening it takes about 5-10 minutes.
