Solo player
Wait for 5 minutes
Get into lobby
Get dodged because killer assumes we're SWF
Wait for 7 minutes
Get into lobby
Get dodged because killer assumes we're SWF
Wait for 4 minutes
Get into lobby with 3 others
1 survivor leaves
Lobby is now glitched at 3 survivors and no one can join


This is ridiculous. I thought an event would boost the population but apparently people have left and aren't coming back. I can only assume it's a population problem because the devs haven't mentioned any matchmaking issues or even addressed this at all.

    The population is boosted, but they are all playing survivor because survivor gains event points more efficiently than killer.

    Well killers get lobbies in a millisecond, so they can cherrypick the survivor teams they prefer

    @brokedownpalace wait till you play an entire round and the killer hard disconnects and you get nothing.

    The lobby queue times have been bad for more then just this event. On average I wait 8 minutes at level 7. That is if the lobby does not bug it self when a person drops.

    I would really like to see the number of players on each side. Especially on consoles.

    But I already know that disclosing that information would completely break whatever balance there is now.

    I guess they'll have to implement a system similar to F13 in the future. Everyone neutral to playing either side will help to balance things out.

    Just play killer,all you gotta do is tunnel and camp from what I have seen.

    Oh so very much ruin, with a hag protecting it with her life and moronic survivors giving their lives to cleanse it
