Re: Battlefield Portal - XP and Progression Test

@Straatford87 All well and good, but in my region (Oceania) I am lucky to find more than 2 or 3 players on popular Portal experiences, like Flashback Conquest.
A couple of suggestions:
- add Portal maps to AOW (or a sub-set of it)
- allow some AI (limit it to 15 per side, if you like) so a game can proceed
- lump a couple of regions together so there are enough players per match

    @Lancelot_du_LacAbsolutely, this. I'm also in the Oceania region.

    Portal should not penalize for AI. If it's equal AI/Players per side, then it's equal opportunity, not EXP farming. As a host of a current BF server for 3+ years, I assure that portal is otherwise essentially useless in Oceania.

    Without AI, portal cannot succeed in OCE. If we mimic an official default experience it's penalized as 'UNRANKED' - ridiculous! We COULD fix BF2042 ourselves, but AI limitations make portal useless.

    Why offer absolute creativity freedom, and then confine it like a prison?? You're eradicating your own invention.

    EASY Fixes:
    -Full progression in equal AI / Player Matches (Simply enforce balance...)
    -Proper exp/minute cap alike high-end official mode scores.
    -No restrictions with default / buffed Hard-AI.
    -Remove limits - Just let people do their thing. At least they play. Most don't. You could use the player count & ratings. (Though I appreciate updates, we are hopeful...)

    All we've needed to enjoy BF2042 is a smaller map Infantry-Only experience starting up with AI. Why's the easiest practical fix always ignored? Our 500-player discord server awaits....
    (And they want to play, not spend hours in empty servers starting them - that's my role)

    Our region can't even partake in this trial.
