Keep after 'em @RayD_O1 

I'll say it again, Server browsers and persistent servers are the ONLY way to go!

And we will keep saying it daily until DICE replaces MM.

I'll say it again, we need a proper Server browser / Persistent Servers, we don't need MM.

It would be nice if we could get some feedback on this subject next week when they introduce the new Feedback Loop.

@RayD_O1I wonder why they took 2 different server paths for AOW and Portal? Were DICE and Respawn not talking to each other during the game development? You would have thought so.

You would wonder,  all very strange indeed.

Whatever the reason BF2042 has been all the worse for adopting to use MM in AOW  it is simply not practical for a BF multiplayer game.

@CantGetRight 

I don't know if what they use, they should just allow rental servers like past BF titles.

People can pick their own maps, modes, hardcore, vanilla, etc. etc.

@RayD_O1Correct me if I am wrong but doesn't DICE use Amazon AWS cloud servers for the AOW MM? If so maybe they cant implement a server browser in AWS? I have no clue myself.

---

Yeah as far as I know they do use Amazon AWS  but they also used them in BFV which had Server Browser/ Persistent Servers so shouldn't be a problem.

Yes agreed this would be the ultimate solution, we can only hope..........

I notice there are more and more posts popping up with players not being able to play due to MM problems.

DICE need to replace MM urgently and address the problem by giving us a proper Server Browser / Server System ASAP. 

Soooooooo did they finally say something?

Sorry, I cannot go over 126 pages to read that, and switching pages is not working well for me. 

But this is the biggest thread ever. If DIE did not say anything, it is because they are hiding. It is absurdly obvious that this is what we want.

Nothing much has happened so far, I think the most we have heard was from a CM saying that our requests had been passed on to the team.

@RayD_O1It should be the top item. Had 3 terrible rounds… lag, desync, rubberbanding. 4th round was smooth, went 23-4, it felt faster too. Far better game play. All I could think was I’d save that server as a favourite if I could, and go back to it as I had a great connection. Servers should not affect players to this extent, especially so randomly. It will need a ping limiter though, or it won’t help as even good servers can be dragged down by a few high ping players.

100% agreed, and as I have said many times a server browser and persistent servers has to be their No.1 priority.

The experience you describe is happening way too often lately and is rapidly sucking the life out of the game.

Nobody enjoys going round after round where shots don't count, it defeats the object  of a FPS game when you can't shoot anyone.

As you rightly point out in previous battlefields, on finding that good server you would have simply added it to your favourites, not anymore under MM rule.

There are just so many reasons that MM is unworkable in a BF title. They all have been listed on this thread many times, yet here we are 9 months later still trying to work around a system that is not designed for a BF multiplayer game.

As you say it would definitely require a ping limiter but all of these things have worked successfully in previous BF's so there is no reason not to have them in BF2042.

DICE please listen, you really need to act fast if BF2042 is going to survive, I sincerely hope it does for the good of the BF franchise going forward.

Yeah indeed mate and on a server of our choice selected using a server browser. 👍

Hoping for a surprise Server Browser in Season 2 update. You can do it DICE.

And by the looks of the new home screen, they are not going to add one. They just made smaller game mode tiles.
