Hi people of the Fog,

i think it would be interesting to know how many people are active on Consoles. But not together, Xbox and PS4 for its own.
What do you think? It would be nice that the devs can tell us about it :)

    I would definitely say not to many. When I live in NA and I recognise the names of teammates who are in EU and Japan it's not a good sign.

    i am on ps4 in denver and am usually in a match within 30 seconds.  i see a lot of japan though for whatever reason.  among the base is a hardcore love for this game.  this is evidenced in the sheer volume of profile background pictures featuring characters in this game.  very common.

    hmm...we could open a poll of some sort on the forums. (it wouldn't be the most accurate....but it could give an estimate maybe.)

    When you get into the higher ranks on Xbox you start to see a smaller sample of people but from rank 20 to 8 or so there are tons of different people.

    Rarely takes me longer than 5 seconds to get into a lobby.

    As a US killer, I find a lobby very very quickly. (And then if I don't get a 3/4 summon wait, I usually can play in less than a minute after.)

    As a solo survivor, I find a lobby in not too long a wait. (About 1 min or less. The problem then is how many dodges do I wait through. Generally 2-3)

    As a Survive with friends Survivor, I wait a really long time for matches. This could be dependent on time and rank. (Anywhere from 10 minutes on average, to 45min-1 hour on a bad day. Then factor in the high level of dodges, 4-5 on average....7-8 on bad days.) There is a possibility of going 2-3 hours without playing a match in this setting.

    I am in UK and at low ranks it can take from 10 seconds to a few minutes at lowish rank, but when I hit red ranks it can take up to 5-10 minutes, however this is most likely due to a lack of high rank killers. I have recognised a few names when I hit high ranks but only a small handful and we don't run into each other that much - I have never recognised low rank players except once when I recognised somebody who flamed me a few games prior in lobby.

    We should totally start a poll for each console! As an Xbox player I'm pretty curious.

    Fairly certain the Xbox community is around 2-3000 regularly active players, getting to rank 1 I usually end up playing with/against the same 40-50 people
