    You should consider yourself lucky you're waiting 10 minutes, I'm not going to be sat staring at my monitor for 30 minutes (for me) doing nothing, I'm going to doing other productive things whilst watching the matchmaking put me into a lobby.

    Actually 10 was generous. The wait to get into a lobby was more like 15 minutes. Then I had a 5 minute waste of time match. Back to waiting for another 15 minutes. So going on 40 minutes now just wanting to get to play a match. To think I am in a hotspot too. Not far from Chicago, New York.

    BHVR for the love of god go even further than 400% bonus. I knew this mode would be lopsided but never THIS bad.

    Because it means you could get grouped with another player faster and find a lobby quicker. I have noticed my queue times take ages when searching as Huntress. Because Huntress is really popular, so a lot of people pick her. That means all those huntress players will never be grouped together to start a match, even though they are all playing killer and looking for a partner.

    Meanwhile my fastest match times (still relatively long) have been as Trapper, bc I doubt most people want to play Trapper beyond the tome challenge.

    I thought that seemed harsh

    Then my 2nd game, the Billy I was with played for about 1 minute before they just stood still the rest of the match

    Now I don't think your suggestion is harsh enough!

    They likely were waiting such a long period they stepped away from the PC and found a match just as they stepped away probably for a bathroom break or something.

    Killer players are now experiencing what survivors have in solo queue, thats so funny 🤣

    Yeah they should've allowed 2 of the same killers. Then had like 2 kits per killer so there would still be something different about them. Yeah, I hadn't thought of that. It needing to find DIFFERENT killer is the icing on top of making this matchmaking hell.

    In an hour you're luckly to get to play twice.

    Once again I just had to wait 20 minutes to get to play a match only to get paired with some moron Nurse who was AFK. The survivors BMed the whole time on top of it.

    I had a killer called 'REMOVE 2v8 (AFK)' and it was a Wraith who went afk somewhere on the map.

    Weird thing is he's a player that I recognise and encounter occasionally. They have over 1.4k hours.

    Really felt sorry for his teammate who was trying their best in a 1v8 game.

    Reported it but according to Steam he was still ingame in the past few hours.

    Had an AFK huntress today, after waiting for like 20 minutes. He was more than half of the game just afk, then suddenly woke up or smth, played a few seconds (while I already was messing around with survivors) and then just disconnected. Such a shame.

    NGL a couple times I queued for killer in 2v8 I actually fell asleep from having to wait so long.
