Every lobby needs 1 killer and 4 survivors. Why in earth does it require same amount of vials for both sides to complete the event?

    That’s exactly the problem. 1 killer accounts for 4 survivors. Every survivor who finishes their side (which is faster than killer) will go to killer. This will create MASSIVE matchmaking issues.

    Yikes. Maybe I should go for those 30 killer vials now then. I'm a 50/50 player, but had opted to start with mostly survivor games. Sounds like killer first would be a better route, and switch to survivor when all the scrubs go to killer.

    Yes the ques for killers will actually get much worse in next few days as all survivors are switching to do killer side of the event.

    Well #########. I was doing all the Survivor vials just to get it out of the way.

    That being said : Never underestimate Survivor Mains who absolutely REFUSE to play Killer, and will simply buy the cosmetic for Dwight or Claudette after they get their 30 vials on Survivor. $10 isn’t bad, then they don’t have to touch the dirty, nasty, Killers, and why would they care to get the Killer cosmetics, they don’t play Killer.

    Ehi, guys, vials are not the world's centre: players' decisions are more diversified than you think, and I'm sure there will be enough survivors to make lobbies. I have never experienced long queues.

    That together with the fact that killer phials take longer to farm....

    Which platform? Because on PC, they have been insanely long already all weekend. Not only as a personal experience here on the forums, but even for Streamers I've been watching. Some of them who are killer mains already said to hell with it and went Survivor on PC for now just to have matches for their viewers to see.

    I play on PS4. Devs should allow matchmaking among different devices, in my opinion.

    Played 1 round of killer yesterday and it seems most survis are already done with the event so I was only one that used offering. 15min que for half a vial gg.

    I'm looking at 20-30 mins. lobbies as killer in EST evenings/nights, and 45 mins. lobby this morning. The pain is real. Should make the vials slowly begin filling after the 20-minute mark while in lobby LoL.

    "requires"
    You mean its possible to earn another free costumee worth 8-10 bucks for playing killer ?

    Doesnt matter whether you want the costumes or not you still have to deal with 99% of the community that wants them.
