Really Long Killer Ques?

Just have to ask..

Anyone else experience extremely long Killer ques? Not sure what's going on, but I've tried to play a few times at random hours throughout the last week or so and I keep getting like around 15min wait times to get into a Lobby as Killer?

Honestly, at the time of writing this even longer, still nothing and its been nearly 20min. Am I the only one?

    Survivour mains playing Killers now cause how easy it is to get crowns for Killers.

    For me at least, crowns are done on survivor so off to killer I go for crowns.

    Not for me on ps4. It's the opposite. I get matches w killer within 20 secs. Survivor tho... That's YouTube time.

    I have been getting really long wait times too. I've also been getting disconnected from servers when playing killer but that could just be me.

    Interesting, I'm on PC.

    Huh, seems like different answers, not sure what's going on for me then.. its really bad, game is practically unplayable as Killer with these que times.. (I'm also not even super high rank since I haven't been playing I think I'm only Rank 17 or something) not sure what gives.


    Though maybe the crowns do have something to do with it as someone suggested.. but does that actually mean there are THAT many more Killer players online than Survivor players right now?

    On PC and in the mountain time zone the killer ques are rather long until about 9pm (For me anyway)

    killer queues are usually a couple seconds for me, any time of the day

    Survivor queues range from 2-4 mins from the morning to the evening, then throughout the night it can be 10+ mins

    btw, im on ps4

    Hm it must be a PS4 thing, for PC it is the exact opposite for me.. Survivor que can be almost instant (but I don't feel like playing survivor) and Killer Ques are so long now that I generally have time to go make a sandwich in the kitchen, start eating and watching my show, before a que even pops into a lobby o.o

    It's pretty bad. Rank 15 now and still that slow.
