Dedicated Servers and SWF
Hello,
Tried searching if anyone else have had this question, but couldn't find any information.
How will SWF lobbies work in the future with dedicated servers? I am from Europe but play with people from US/AU from time to time.
Currently the killer is always selected based on the player who creates the lobby. For example if I create a lobby, we will join a EU lobby.
Will it still be like this?
Can anything be said about what to expect in the future when playing cross-continent? Will it be better or worse ping-wise that it is now?
Regards!

Lobbys are created by Killers, not the other way around.
SWFs will still be the same in dedicated servers, nothing different. You'll still make a lobby with a SWF THAN they search for a lobby that a Killer has created.
Killers are the ones that have the lobbys open, Survivors just join, same with SWF.
I don't think this is true for dedicated.
during the PTB there were times that I was in a lobby with other people and we were waiting for the killer to join us.
If memory serves, this is what I heard from the anniversary live-stream and before that also.
Just going off of that, since i'm pretty sure I remember hearing that, as it was one of the reasons I took a break for awhile, the match making being so... long...
This is exactly what I am curious to know. Either way I hope people from different regions are still able to play without too much of a ping issue. There was always be some lag as there is now, but usually it's playable.
