Add a server browser

@RayD_O1If they add a persistent server browser to AOW then i can see players coming back to play. Plus we need map rotation also added so we can play more than one map a day.

It would definitely give the game a player boost.

Map rotation is essential, the 7 maps are very stale at this stage and being forced to play certain maps over and over is killing BF2042.

Just let this thread die. DICE isn't going to add a server browser or persistent server lobbies. They don't care.

I will continue to keep the thread alive until DICE 100% officially rule it out.

There are players who can't even get into matches, they deserve to be able to play the game they paid for.

Let's wait and see what happens in the next updates.

@RayD_O1Good luck to you, because they probably never will.

You could well be right. time will tell, but until then I will keep pushing for it. 

Portal .... Portal ... Portall ? end of the story they can play 

That is the laziest excuse I have ever heard. 

DICE, please...

@Stew360Not sure if I got your point. The first paragraph is not in agreement with the second, or in general.

The point of a server browser is to let us chose the lowest ping.

Currently, I am constantly placed on laggy/far servers. The experience from one match may be wonderful, just to be horrible on the next, with some rubberbanding to the point of giving me nausea.

We don't have any idea of how the matchmaking works, if they consider ping, or whatnot. I know for a fact that, sometimes I had to quit waiting for a match. I was also thrown in the middle of matches, and just a few days ago, at around 4 pm EST, I played in servers with about 50% bots.

So that means they are NOT getting full servers. Surely enough they try to fill the servers at all costs. So they are either sending you to be the laggy player in European servers, or sending the laggy players to YOUR server.

Therefore, the streamlined all out war is not fair or fun to some. And it is not streamlined if we don't know how the choices are made, what is prioritized, and where we are getting ourselves into.

And how hard is picking a server with a low ping indicator, shown as milliseconds or in green bars, and a free spot? That is streamlined enough. That is what we expected.

If that still bothers you, the option "quick match" always existed in BF. We could do it both ways. Simple!

By doing so, they remove the unnecessary 30 s wait and go straight to matches with maps rotating properly.

I can imagine that a server browser will cost to much for the amount of players currently playing. I remember the time back in Battlefield 5 where they shut down servers somewhere at places with low player amount. Those people were really upset and sad that they were forced to play on servers of other regions with bad ping.

To avoid shutting down servers again they could possibly use the lobby system. All players get thrown on a specific server that is currently running with somewhat the same ping?

But no matter the reason its sad. We are at a point that we dont have a server browser for a shooter game. A feature that helps finding and making friends and also build communities.

I am sorry but as arsh as it can be ... I do not want my experience to be ruined by Super High ping players getting into my lobby ruining the experience for everyones involved because they cant play in their regions i didnt sign up for this ..

Portal is the platform for < free for all > stuff where ping isnt consider where servers browser is a thing and where you have all sort of thing going on .. there its expected .. All out warfare it meant to be a more streamlined and more stable experience expecting similar ping players

Or... you have community servers that have mods/etc that check for ping times and if they are above [say] 200ms then they are booted. But it's still better than what we have now.

DICE need to take heed and act to allow all players access to the game they paid for. 

Who wants to spend their time in lobbies waiting to get into a server only to find the rounds has a few minutes left and then you get dumped back to start it all again.

Who enjoys playing the same map several times in a row or being denied access to their favourite map for days on end, just because MM dictates what you play. ? 

MM is is pure frustration and a time waster, people want to join a server and stay on it all day if they decide, and play through the whole map rotation with their friends, MM doesn't allow this.

MM kills choice and is also killing BF2042 and needs replacing asap and should be a number one priority for the May update.  

One more day of silence😴

Agreed, mind you almost anything would be better than what we have currently.

The BF franchise has moved a long way from it's roots when community servers were the backbone of the BF Community, that is all gone now.

Is it any wonder so many players have moved on, BF2042 is a mere shell of what it could / should have been.

@RayD_O1They have got sales made a profit we are now nobodys.
They spent the profits on christmas parties nothing left for season pass holders except a random generator which cost 5p a click.
EA want this game to die season one to be delayed to make sure it's dead before it goes p2p only.

Another day of MM is one day too many in my book. !

Dice are to lazy to even consider put in the work for adding a server browser. 

DICE please listen to the community, all players have the right to play the game they paid for.

We all need to keep pushing for a server browser to be added in the May update, MM is killing BF2042. 

Please add your support if you want MM replaced.
