Add a server browser
DICE, please add a server browser. I cannot find matches in my region(India). I am just stuck on the waiting for players screen and the match never starts or there are only 20-30 players in a match. ...

I am just stuck on the waiting for players screen and the match never starts or there are only 20-30 players in a match. Please keep in mind this is the case even when crossplay is on. I want to play on EU servers but can’t do it unless a server browser is implemented. Please consider this request as you are already implementing some missing features from previous battlefield’s according to today’s details. Unless a server browser is implemented I cannot play BF2042.
I feel your pain, you paid out good money and can't play the game.
I have been asking for a proper Server Browser / Server system to replace MM and I have listed in detail why it doesn't work.
This is a link to one of the many threads discussing this : Re: Update 0.3.2 still no Server Browser ? - Page 7 - Answer HQ (ea.com)
IT is simply not up to the job for you, me and so many others complaining about it on these forums daily.
Sadly looking at today's announcement DICE do not appear to be listening to the many calls for a proper Server Browser / server system just like we had in previous BF's.
They seem to be listening to players input a bit more here lately, hopefully they'll revisit the decision to not have a server browser and persistent servers.
These are fundamental game mechanics, I quit out of the game if it continuously keeps loading me into a map that I don't want to play.
Even as good as some maps are it's gets VERY repetitive and BORING playing the same handful of maps that seem to que up regularly. It shouldn't be such a chore to just play a full map rotation.
Anyway, I hope they reconsider this, time will tell, I guess.
New update.... Where is server browser EA??? Fssss

I firmly believe there is a bit more hope now that they will reverse their earlier decision.
To get the best out of all the other improvements / new content etc they need to replace MM so all players can enjoy them.
I am enjoying playing BF2042 more recently but MM continues to be a massive negative for me and drags BF2042 down.
Hopefully one of these days they will announce the addition of a Server Browser / Persistent Servers, imho it would be the No.1 QoL improvement they could bring to BF2042.
I'm from middle east and I don't know what happened after update 3.1 in ME servers I can't play normal game anymore, for the past two weeks I came back and I had a good time playing on EU servers but now the game throw me in ME server and man it is a disaster, no matches always waiting and tons of bots and empty servers, just shutdown ME servers and let us play on EU server.
- @RayD_O1 There's info about the persistent servers update which has just come out: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Updates/BATTLEFIELD-2042-UPDATE-6-4-0/m-p/13508787/highlight/false#M2645
It's for Portal only unfortunately.
