Early in the morning after I wake up- load into survivor lobby instantly

late at night- survivor lobby takes forever or "unknown errors"

Why?

    Because there are more people playing at night time, and a lot of them are survivors or people who are playing survivor with friends.

    Purely anecdotal, but I usually only play SWF in the evenings since that’s when my friends are around and want to play together. If I play earlier in the day I usually go killer because it’s a more fun solo mode than solo survivor.

    During night time many people start to play and they play with their friends. Most of the night time survivors are SWF groups and that's why it is harder for solo survivors to find lobby. Number of survivor player increased during at night time. My advice is play killer at night and do survivor at morning time.
