Matchmaking is a joke

Just waited 10 minutes to enter a killer lobby on ps4. Only 3 survivors joined. 10 minutes later they leave. New survivors join, only 3. Eventually leave.

About 35 mins after creating the lobby its me and 2 survivors. The screen goes black and I get an error saying the lobby had closed due to an error.

######### BHVR, are you telling me in all that time there was not 1 solo survivor waiting to join a game. Just wasted almost an hour of my life to nearly play a game. Now I gotta wait another 5-10 minutes just to OPEN A LOBBY ffs

    Seems like there is serious failure in matchmaking 4th survival will never join. Especially when people keep joining and leaving.

    I'm also waiting forever for a match (both survivor and killer). ☹

    If it's noticeable that a 4th survivor is not joining or if the 4th survivor joins but keeps leaving, then the lobby might be bugged. I noticed when playing with my SWF group that sometimes some of us don't load into the lobby and are forced to close the game through task manager. So the possibility might be that it might have happened to a survivor trying to join your lobby and it might have bugged it in the process. Just remake your lobby once this happens.

    It's a failure, yes.

    I'm currently R7 on both sides, so I should get games playing as one of them at least.

    Same experience: 20 or more minutes as killer and didn't even create the damn lobby.

    Switched to surv: 15 mins waiting to join a lobby. Didn't happen. I'm done for the weekend, at least.
