Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

If the new lobby system (as a killer) has me wait until the game finds me survivors then loads me into a lobby with them. Why do I keep loading into empty lobbies I have to wait to fill?

    @Peanits says this is because Survivors load in after you load in.

    I'd wager you find other people while waiting, but because it's still P2P, you need to create the lobby before they can even start loading into it.

    Why some Survivors take longer to load, could be anything.


    I'm THINKING this, based on what Peanits said btw.

    @Boss (this @ didn't work btw) Hmm I did play a swf game where my partner took about 30 seconds to load in. So maybe its load in times that make the new system feel worse then it is

    Something with their new algorithm makes it take longer than it would with the older algorithm.
