What's going on with queue times?

I don't know what's happening lately but sometimes I have to wait up to 10 minutes to play a game as survivor, no matter if I'm alone or with friends. Something has to be fixed because it doesn't make any sense I have to wait more than 3 minutes to find a lobby when there are 40k players playing the game only on Steam.

    I have been playing for years and I never had to wait 10~ minutes on queue for either role unless there was a server issue or something.

    This can sometimes happen, when there is a lack of players on either side. The BP incentive tells you which side is played less at the time. Even if you play together with 3 friends and you already have complete group of survivors, you can't play a match without a killer.

    Are they listening because I see no sign of it. They need to act now!

    I would say the stats would indicate what is happening. Then again with all the DC'ing/idling what are the stats really worth.

    They should just listen to unbias players like Otz and Hens.

    I commented this earlier on a different post, but I agree. I swear I could play at least two full matches of killer in the time it takes me to find survivor lobbies.

    I'm not great at survivor either, so it's not like I'm an MMR god that can't be matched against anybody lol

    My queue times are fine, whether night or day. I've played for almost 3 years and I reckon the longest queue I've had in that time was maaaybe 2 minutes

    They are biased though XD...

    They should listen to all feedback and decide whether changes need to happen or not.

    Content creators are also just players like you and me.

    Btw.... I personally think made for this is very unhealthy for the game and should get it's haste effect removed due to it destroying m1 killers if the survivor is good and barely having impact on the strongest killers in the game.

    The Perk incentivices playing the stronger killers over and over again.
