New players
Have the worst experience joining into DbD.
My fears were right and the plague that is matchmaking has now completely screwed the game. Killers will get instant queues now at any rank, and will be paired against any rank survivors. 1 game on the switch as a rank 20 no pip clown, I had 2 green ranks and 2 yellow ranks to go against.
Queued for survivor and watched a whole YouTube video and no games.
If this doesn’t get addressed soon. DbD’s days are numbered.

New players should just stay away before they blow too much money on this game, the way it's going is not worth it

I don't think they can fix it in a meaningful and timely manner and question if they can fix it at all

One time, a buddy and I were in queue for a lobby late at night. We were chatting lightly, waiting to get into a game. The conversation started to fizzle out. There's a pause for several long moments. A new sound breaks the silence. It wasn't the sound of a joining a game, no. It was the sound of my friend snoring as he literally fell asleep waiting for a game.
Amusing anecdote aside, I'm sorry you had that experience as a killer and a supremely long wait time as a survivor. I don't know how long the DBD has been out on the Switch, but there may just genuinely be a poverty of players on that console causing increased wait times. I'm not aware of any timelines to enable cross-platform play, but that herculean undertaking might actually alleviate some of the lobby lull.

The devs are working on matchmaking changes.
I am hoping that it will be sooner than later. Maybe in the next chapter patch.
