128 players never was the problem.
It has been bugging me for years ever since they made the announcement back in like 2022 that 128 players just isn't as fun for players as compared to 64, 40. 32 etc. I think everyone can agree that...
Forum Discussion
Expanding to 128 makes no sense in any way except for a marketing ploy. I would even argue that 64 player multiplayer is a core part of Battlefield and it should stay like that.

128 only works if you have self organising clans and teams, decent squad sizes, comms etc.
even poor maps could work a bit with proper basic structure in place.
But what did we get instead?
Legacy players, clans, platoons kicked to curb and curb stomped. Instant death to 128 EVER working even remotely a bit.
4 player squads.
squad reset after ever match
Forced map choice.
No server browser, official hardcore clan managed servers.
What did anyone expect?
2042 is a disgrace and quite frankly offensive.
