Survivors, what do you do while you wait?

What do y'all do while we wait in this long queue?

I play FFXIV lol. Crazy how much I can get done between games.

    I do a few things while I wait with my friends. I do homework, listen to some philosophy and debates or just play pokemon (specifically hacked and fan made pokemon games)

    Play on my nintendo or just browse the forums until i get into a game.


    just a thought, u dont earn anything from it besides practice, but why cant we just practice skill checks in the lobby or something, something small, a good little time waster. maybe even have a challenge while u wait, hit 10 great skill checks in a row with the skill check going backwards? ehhh just me?

    Generally just browse about or watch a video in little chunks, as I honestly can't remember personally experiencing queue times that would give me time to do anything else.

    Currently watching Let’s Plays on YouTube of all Resident Evil Games. (Well, for the older ones only the remakes)

    started those when the stars comment hinted at an RE chapter and liked them. But I wouldn’t want to play them myself..

    Speaking of, I found a couple of sites to practice skill checks, https://dbd-stats.net/skill-check from this forum, and http://www.mistersyms.com/tools/gitgud/ from Google.

    I guess a neat practice mode isn't a priority for BHVR. I can understand why and it seems like it's not in their nature to dev something like that. But from a player experience pov, it'd be nice.

    YouTube, browse these forums, or watch an anime/show/movie. Sometimes I forget I was playing dbd and am already hooked when I tab back. I always feel sorry for my teammates who try to rescue me when that happens.

    I honestly just think, I remember being in a 20 minute que and spent the whole time pondering "if a hipster does something but they don't upload it to Instagram did it happen?"

    You can play 2 killer matches for 1 survivor game minimum and not waste time and you make queues for other people shorter by not being selfish its win win
