Does anybody feel like dedicated servers are part of the game by now?

This doesn't feel like a test anymore is being way too long

    I think the "test phase" was just their passive-aggressive way of telling us the servers are here shut up and enjoy it.

    I got into a game tonight for the first time since they launched dedicated servers.

    Been queuing every night and waiting 5 mins. If no game, I quit and play something else.

    I finally got in tonight (as Freddy) and it worked ok. It still really bugs me that they would do this for a PAID game (not free to play),especially since there is no single player or AI mode (it requires their servers to play)

    They will have to blow my mind with progress before I spend money on this game again though! It's just godawful business practices but sadly there are too many people who will gobble it up and continue to spend money.

    Probably the same folks who buy gambling boxes in other games....they've ruined the industry for the rest of us.

    Dedicated servers has nothing to do with microtransactions.

    It's a good thing i've seen true , monto , fungoose playing on dedicated servers they are not that bad. They are pretty good honestly but everyone don't have the same experience. He remain me that they have instant lobbies as survivor but, i have 5min queues myself. So yes everyone is not at the same level.

    My Survivor Lobbies have started becoming 1-2 minute ques whereas before they were instant. It's my area of course rather than the servers themselves that are the problem, or not?

    Before servers they were instant, so I don't know what exactly happened to cause the queue, except maybe a lot of people stopped playing killer because the servers were screwing their experience.

    I would imagine a lot of the killers who used to enjoy the homecourt ping advantage are suddenly not so happy playing killer now that they have to suffer through lag. This is likely what's causing some survivor's queues to go up.

    These killers also might have ended up switchign to survivor instead.

    The roll-out of these servers has been an awful lot like drowning. You don't want it to happen and you try to fight it off as much as you can, but after a while you just stop struggling and have to let it take you.

    If these servers stay then grats to them for killing off the last of their old players because many are already not playing because of how miserable they make the game.
