queue times fix when??
honestly its a joke takes 10 minutes to find a survivor game and it takes 5 sec to find a game as killer I WONDER WHY!?!?
do something about killers 80% of the killers are unplayable due to ######### reworks and just a vad overall experience as a killer, i mean i play killer like 95% of my games and im truly enjoying it but since i play most of the killers i also notice that most of them are just pure trash.... the only real enjoyable killers are the weak once which you need to sweat your balls off to play and actually win with...
So maybe take care of the few killers that are left :)

Queue times won't be fixed as long as mmr is a thing. No one wants to go against constant meta as killer if they win 2 matches in a row.

As he said - you still need 20% of players playing killer. If killers are leaving it is not good.

The queue times aren't actually that bad for survivor anymore, I can get into a game after about 50 seconds, the only issue is that this is probably something that comes at the sacrifice of teammates quality.

Blame the devs for MMR, I'd rather play Fortnite than killer, and i hate fortnite

Queue times will be shorter when people stop suggesting to stop playing the game over grievances.

The queues will continue until killer morale improves.

Not sure how other killer mains feel about Boon totems, but I personally think in their current state are pretty off-putting when playing killer. They effectively destroy a lot of killer perks at the same time as giving the whole survivor team some serious buffs. On top of that they basically can't be removed from the game & are a pain in the a**e to track.
I had one SWF team a few night ago bring 3 X healing & shadowstep perk boons to Lerys. It was basically impossible to track them and didn't matter where they went could heal up. Unless I was running some odd build with like sloppy & bloodhound you basically couldn't find or keep track of anyone.
Its not something that would make me personally stop playing killer, but I could see why people that play killer might decide to the a break until these types of perks are reworked.

The "fix" would be horrible horrible nerfs to survivors, can you take it?
I'm pretty sure SoloQ players will literally die by it.

It could be fixed when people understand that playing killer isnt as complicated as people like you make it look like. to be hoonest killer is much more relaxing as casual player than playing as not-4man-swf. those who always talk about how miserable their matches are, are truly not the average of this game. most players i know that play killer at a casual level have no issues with the power balance. sometimes you get players that are better, most of the time theyre just average. and the average in this game is quite bad if you ask me. i am much better at survivor but due to MMR i landed in low-mmr hell. downward spiral due to 90% bad players as mates. no way to get better mmr without sweating my ass of for a whole season i guess. but that skill level is what you get as killer too. most players are just not good.
as killer i still have a decent mmr as trapper main and the survs i get are more competent than my own mates, but i still have an average around 2-3kills. and i dont play sweaty, in case i play overly fair. and this works. its really rare to get teams that are far better than me, and then i dont even cry about matchmaking like most people here on the forums, but instead i try to learn from my mistakes. and i am not entitled to win. neither as killer nor as survivor. thats all it needs to play killer casualy and have a good time.

Actually, it is.

Queue times were bad before MMR as well. Simply just sometimes there are a lot more survivors queueing than killers. If you want to fix it, go play killer when the survivor queue is long.

When they start making killer fun to play.
Killer right now is straight up unrewarding. There's only so many times someone can put up with outplaying a survivor just so they can bail themselves out, for free, with a perk. All that as killers watch survivors complain about things like Pain Resonance/Dead Man's Switch saying they should get nerfed (and likely will, because killer things are nerfed in RAPID succession compared to busted survivor things), despite it having the fairly steep earning requirement of actually having to be competent at getting downs to get any value.
Killer is unrewarding, and killers are treated as second class. Survivors bust out the old quadruple condom build full of second chances so they don't bust too soon, and it's all good because "they're just trying to survive", but if a killer brings a loadout of gen delay, they're trash talked, told they're trash, and told to off themselves.
When that ######### stops, you'll have tolerable queue times.

It will get fixed only once its too late and Killers are no longer a threat most of the time. The times I actually die are either because my team didnt go for a save or the killer just camped everyone on hook. There is a power vacuum that needs to addressed and maybe once killers dont feel so intemidate by gen pops they will try to find others. What a lot of killers dont understand tho is that its a lot like fishing and you dont attract fish by flailing your bait all over the place. Survivors wont go for a save until they are absolutely sure they wont just give you a final hook unless the gate is powered and you have BT. Ques will slowly get better when killers become a lot more fun and tempting instead of punishing.

i agree 101% the fun killers are as i said unplayable we don't get anything new or exiting weak killers remain weak and unplayable...
What you said is perfect us killers are treated as a 2nd class almost like we doesn't matter, survivors complain about a perk and it gets reworked or fixed quickly killers who complain about the nurse blink bunk etc. took them YEARS to fix that. Both sides say that haddonfield is a fairly unbalanced map meh they dont care... When the game (gideon meat plant) was killer sided it got reworked

yes, and thats something survivors cant handle they will complain until it gets fixed... Survivors are treated as gold while us killers are just simple rocks. they dont care how we feel or if the game is horrible to play as a killer but when survivors start struggling and doesnt feel fun to play they do something about it... Yes i play soloQ and while soloQ is usually pretty horrible that problem isnt with the game its simply the survivor that isnt the brightest player...

Morning and afternoon it takes me 30 seconds to find a survivor match. Evening, maybe 1-2 minutes. Late night? Usually about 5 minutes or more so I only play 1 or 2 matches at that time, if at all

1st. 2 - 3 kills i would say 90% of my games are 4kills easily i dont really think killer is that bad but then im playing 4000 dpi blight with a 1 meter long mouse pad... what im saying is some killers are just horrible to play i mean i love clown but when i play him i need to SWEAT and i really mean sweat to get something out of him his power is pretty weak and thats just how it is. As a survivor if you just run the killer for 30 sec thats 30 * 8 which is 240 seconds and a gen is 80
so theoretically you could do 3 gens within the first 90 100 seconds. and keep in mind that the killer has to hook and find survivors (yes survivors have to find gens too) but you only need to run the killer for 30 seconds 40 seconds as a survivor and you have done a fairly decent job... thats plenty of time
2nd. as a killer on the other hand one mistake can cost you the match (sure it can happen on survivor as well) i mean lets say you miss one swing and well now he got to the jungle gym can loop you 3 times and drop the pallet then go to the next gen... if you mess up as a survivor the worst thing that can happen is that you go down and you still have a few lives left.
conclusion...
I think its easier to perform well as a survivor than as a killer(THIS IS MY OPINION!!!!), 2nd I dont really think the main reason killer is boring to play for some people are survivors, i think its the amount of bullshit they have to take like half the killers being unplayable and just not fun to play the other half of the killers are really weak and hard to get anything out of their power :)

hhm how long does it take to find a game as killer?
when i play a killer match is 20 sec and a survivor match is around 1 - 5 minutes (5 minutes is rare but so is 20seconds)

There are two ways to play Killer....
There is Play to have fun, where you okay to just have fun and be silly. Unfortunately you probably won't win many games this way but it's the most relaxing experience as Killer.
Then there's Play to Win which isn't fun and a total stressful sweatfest that makes people not want to play Killer.

I don't play killer much lately but when I do it's 5 to 30 seconds usually. Unless there's been a new killer released, a killer rework or buff, etc. But I don't even bother trying anymore when that's the case lol

ooh i play bubba face camp too when im really bored those are also 4k most of the time... well somehow and yes i do partially agree but its also fun to win :)
and the problem is when i do play fun builds and get like 1 - 2 kills the survivors just say "EZ NOOB UNINSTALL TRASH LLLLLL"
and stuff like that so i dont find it fun to get trash talked at the end with 1000000000000 flashlight clicks & tbags +toxic endgame chats which doesnt really bother me besides it being pretty sad to see how mean people really are :/
i mean how can they even think im playing serious when i play deathslinger insidious, bloodwarden, noed, and agitation or other fun builds like rancor and nemesis(the perk)...

The only way to make queues better is if more people play killer, and current killers are being hated for everything they do, I've seen smaller streamers and stuff get ######### talked for everything they do when they play killer and it doesn't seem fun.

There is no "fixing" queue times, at least not for dbd. Queue times are fine, so long as there is enough players for it to draw from. If your queue times are long, then that means the side you're waiting on isn't having fun and they've stopped playing. Ask the devs to make killer more enjoyable and your queue times just might get faster,

Que times depend largely on the region you play in. I'm in NA and the evening is terrible for survivor. if i can get time in during the day my que times for both survivor and killer are less than 1 minute.
But yeah, playing killer is way less fun than survivor. Plus few killers are actually viable if you want to "win" a match. I'm sure the killer population has dropped since boons released. My evening survivor que times have near doubled.

it isnt really fun to play killer no... when you do play a fun build you get trash talked and hated on... the devs doestn really care that much about us killers either, if the killer count is dropping maybe they should do something because how fun will it be to play as survivor when queue times get to 50 minutes and there are 80k survivors but only 200 killers?
And the title is to clickbait a little too while still "fitting" the posts content
