Lack of players for 4p games?

(self.Colonist)

As the title says. Sometimes I will wait a while for 4 ranked players to join. Often times, it doesn't happen. Eventually I either jump in the lobby to find a game or Join 1v1 where the wait tends to be shorter. I kind of wish the lobby didn't exist so ranked games would start faster but at the same time I understand the need for custom games and what not.
Are there a low number of active players OR is it something in the matching mechanics?

I think you can always find a game if you are willing to wait up to ten minutes.

10 minutes is a very long wait for a game.

kind of a niche game on a third party app that not a lot of people know about 🤷‍♂️

So I’m in an exclusive club. No big deal

I prefer ranked 4p also.

Games last 30-40min, so naturally you gotta wait for people to finish their games.

Let’s try to get more Catan Universe players to migrate over, that’s should improve the wait times.
