Finding survivors is taking at least 5 minutes (Again)

I already posted a ticket about this, but I think it needs to be put out there.

Since patch 2.2.0, finding survivors at any rank takes a long amount of time. Longest I have waited is around the 5 minute mark.

This used to be a problem last patch but they somehow managed to fix it. This patch is even worse.

I can play about 3 survivor games in a row in the amount of time it takes me to play 1 killer game.

Devs, when are you going to find a more permanent fix for this?

    is it a bug or are killers just getting tired of playing killer?

    I'd say it's more of a server issue. In patch 2.1.2, I could find survivors within a minute or so (taking into account the people who leave the lobby due to the "Anti-cheat" error).

    This patch is literally 5 times worse. I get so bored of waiting for survivors to join lobby that I just end up playing survivor instead.

    If people were tired of playing killer, then surely the problem would be a total opposite? Survivors wouldn't be getting into lobbies at all. Considering there's a double BP event, you'd think there would be more killers playing as it's easier for them to get points.

    That doesn’t make sense. If killers couldn’t find survivors, that means their is too many killers, not the other way around.

    I think he got the wrong end of the stick, so to speak.

    It's not that I can't find survivors in killer lobbies full stop, it just takes a really long time. Longer than it really should be taking.
