What does this mean?

(Matchmaking failed. Cause: deadMatch)

This happened a few times last night.

    Seems like the general lobby errors that are happening since the patch yesterday. I can't even get into a survivor match anymore due to the lobby errors. Killer seems to work 90% of the time, but even then the queue is way shorter so it's not a big deal to get right back in.

    That's weird. I've been getting into survivor matches just fine and never getting any errors after any amount of time. I didn't even know this was a thing happening until today.

    Same, that was the first time it happened so frequent. And its only as killer.

    Yes, so far, happened only as Killer. But when I play Survivor, I am not playing Solo, maybe this is the reason.

    What is kinda annoying is that it happens after already being in queue for a few minutes. So you have to join the queue again, and especially during the day, Killer Queues here are long.

    When I play survivor it's always solo and the first day saw the error only a few times. The next day it was every time I tried to play as survivor (probably 8x total). I also got the error as killer, but only 2x. For me the survivor queues are about 5 min while killer is instant, so I gave up even trying survivor.
