PS4 swf, it's getting insane

I've been playing dbd since it's beta on PC, I'm at University meaning I switched to PS4 as it's easier to bring around, but I've noticed the amount of swf groups is insane when compared to PC.

I end up just dodging as soon as I see them just to avoid them, which leads to me waiting like 10 minutes just to pray I don't get a swf 4man and get.bullied because I don't have ruin

I feel like this was always a problem but it's been getting worse and worse it seems.on PS4, as to where I can't even play the game properly

    You can play the game. It’s you decision to keep trying to find easier mathes.

    You know they changed matchmaking so that all survivors will show in the lobby at about the same time, regardless of them being in a SWF group or not, right?

    Also, it takes roughly 15-20 seconds to send a party invite to any survivor in the lobby and have them join a premade chat. So, even solo que survivors can enjoy the same advantages SWFs groups enjoy.

    Trying to dodge SWF groups is completely pointless. You're just wasting your time.

    I actually feel like the issue is gens getting done too quickly.

    I played multiple matches today at rank 9 as Ghostface. Gens would frequently get done because a 10 seconds chase would cause 60 to 70% of a gen to be done. I could not afford to NOT patrol gens and focus on just scaring them off. As taking 5 seconds to injure a Survivor and another 5 to down them causes gens to be done.

    GF is too weak. You can't "take your time" in a game like this. Especially since Survivors gen rush even MORE compared to after the emblem update.

    One chase = one or two gens done. It's insane on how weak GF is.
