I have not been able to easily find an active match/server for 128-player Conquest in All Out War since the last update when DICE made the incredibly stupid decision to make 64-player Conquest the default option.
There is a great TED Talk by behavioral economist Dan Ariely discussing the consequences of basic opt-in vs opt-out systems. The main point is that whichever choice is made the default will always be the one most often selected by the super majority of people because they're either lazy or simply unaware that there are other choices available.
This is what is going on with 128-player Conquest now. Most everyone is simply queing into the 64-player version by DEFAULT. This makes even less sense considering you need more players to start a 128-player server.
The main selling point of BF2042 was the increased scale for this next generation of Battlefield. That DICE are now completely walking back on that design choice is a major disappointment, and I will not continue playing this game. If I wanted to go back to 64-players, I'd just go play an older Battlefield.
STOP TRYING TO CATER TO PLAYERS THAT CAN'T EVEN RUN YOUR GAME ON MODERN HARDWARE. (I.e., old gen console players.)
AND STOP TRYING TO CATER TO HATERS THAT WERE NEVER COMING BACK.
As my opinion the last patch ruin everything , nobody play 128-player conquest in my region now , vehicle combat become a joke , tank is a big joke , gun balance is joke , weapon attachments is joke too . What else next ?
They are effectively trying to phase out 128 players that’s very obvious but that was one of its selling points 😂😂😂
Thats the whole reason I bought the game.... 128 conquest combined arms, with twice as many infantry and vehicles, chaotic warfare experience. Now all thats changed and the entire mode has been watered down into a large team deathmatch of infantry only. Unless these vehicle changes are reverted to prior 4.0 and slightly balance them based on my solution. This game won't be played again by me. And I demand a refund for the false advertising, completely changing the game that what was advertised for
