Predator Match Wait Times...

I waited 14min to get into a match, get there and there’s only one FT member.

I wait another 15min, that person leaves and nobody else ever joins to play.

@Courier please report this is still an issue to devs. Here I am sitting in the 13min wait queue again.

It will be an hour before a damn match starts at this rate. 🤬

Multi predator game modes need to be introduced…

Like yesterday.

Like two Predators vs two Fire Teams for instance. And with that many players there should be only 1 FT that can get Reinforcements.

Great idea.

Right now seems to be far fetched.

Tossing in an extra pred and slightly nerfing the 2 preds, WILL have an effect on wait times.

Sitting back here and staring at the 15-20 minute mountain isnt something I’m too down for…

Omg…!!!. Stfu… everyones gonna half to wait. So far i solo killed this pos 10 times today… its a predator with an elder sword… calm your tits

Dude, you’re the one that needs to chill the fuck out.

It’s not acceptable to wait nearly an hour to play a normal match as the Predator with a Full FT.

I don’t have the luxury of waiting 45+ min to get paired-up with one FT member for a match that lasts 15min. It’s a waist of time — there’s no reason the lobby shouldn’t populate quickly after waiting that initial 14 or so minutes.

You clearly don’t have a career or any other life responsibilities if wait times that long are acceptable to you mate.

So you can Stfu and don’t bother responding, unless you have something useful to say.

Sfu beta… i dont even care… killed every single ninja today

You’re the beta and toxic as fuck. Nobody said anything to justify you bringing a bitchy attitude into this thread you twat.

You bragging about killing shit is off-topic as fuck too.

The thread is simply to report wait times are still too long and match-making is an issue after the 1.13patch.

Your trash talking and bragging have literally nothing to do with the conversation nor move the dialogue forward in a meaningful way.

I said only respond if you had something useful to say. Now go back to the little-kids table, drink your 🧃 and kindly shut the fuck up while grown folk are talking.

Only betas use toxic and fight with words keyboard warrior

Also you australian fuck im not your fucking mate mate… literally you work 3 hrs a day… you have plenty of fucking time.

Just give it a day. By tonight, when some players come to realize that this is the worst patch ever and the game is completley dead and broken, pred times will go back to normal or better.

I not an Aussie mate and not going to take corrections from a person that calls a Samurai Predator a “ninja” and waists forum member’s time arguing something off-topic.

From this point forward your comments will be ignored unless they actually worth discussing about OP.

What’s even the deal with this “beta” insult? So ridiculous…

But regarding the topic, how would a gamemode with 2 preds and 2 FT’s shorten the matchmaking time? Its the same just… bigger.

A new Predator came out today, a LOT of ppl want to use him, which is why que times are so high. And that’s always going to be the case as the majority of ppl who bought this game bought it to use the Predator. We need more maps and cosmetics before any new game modes as additional game modes aren’t really needed for Asym type games. Dead by Daylight being a good example.

I think the easiest way to ease up queue times is to implement the same system they used in Friday the 13th.

Because more of the population would be able to play as a Predator per match. But I think the easiest solve is that @IllFonic does away with public match Predator and Fire Team selection.

It should just be Quick Play and players have a 1–in–5 chance of being the Predator. It takes 30sec on average to connect as a Fire Team.

Players would get to be Predators more often than waiting more time than what it takes to play a single match.

@Exanguinate mentioned we could set Preferred selection in Menu like Friday the 13th where players can set FT, Predator or No Preference.

Yah that’s system would help out a lot more, they did the same thing with evolve too. Just have people choose their preferences (of course it’ll be mostly preds) that system would help the lobbies more

Yeah, we understand that. But it doesn’t make sense to wait nearly the length of a match to be thrown into a lobby with one FT member and then wait in that menu for nobody to ever join and the single FT member that’s there quits before things even start.

When on the other side we can connect to a match in 30sec — with that being said, if a player is sitting in an empty lobby as the Predator it should take at most a minute for FT members to populate.

I’m sorry that I want to play as the predator but taking my choice away isnt the way. You can hop right into a game as the killer in DBD so it can be done.
