I can't play as killer

I don't know why but I really can't play as killer, I always wait a lot and no one joins my game so I just go and play survivor instead. Does anyone have the same problem? I could literally be waiting 30 minutes there and no one would join. As survivor I just click join and in 1 minute I'm already playing.

    If you lack experience as a killer I'm sure a Kill Your Friends group would help.

    It's a bug. I have no such problem with queues, and many others don't either.

    It's similar for me; as a killer I wait 10mins or more before anyone joins my lobby, while as a survivor I wait max a few seconds till I find a lobby

    I don't lack experience, I'm just saying that I have to wait like 30 minutes for nothing because no one joins to my game. I've been playing for a while and this never happened to me before.
    And yeah I've played Kill your Friends as killer :)

    I have only one suggestion then. If it is at all possible, try playing as killer between 1 A.M. to 5 A.M. Eastern Standard Time. I have played killer during this period and had record short wait times. If there's ever a time to see if your matchmaking is bugged, that's the time.

    Killer Lobbies are currently bugged on PC. It takes a while for the system to register you have a Lobby open and for Survivors to get in. The developers are currently looking into the problem.

    This is does not effect console Killer Lobbies.
