So for the second week in a row we now have 64 player Conquest sitting alongside 128 player Conquest in AOW.I am just wondering if this will become the new permanent set up for AOW.I personally feel there is a demand for a permanent 64 player AOW mode and it seems very popular.How do you guys feel about it. ?

@RayD_O1 I feel like they should make a menu system that has all game modes so we can choose what we want to play when we want to play.

@RayD_O1The "a limit to the number of options" would mean the 'devs' at Dice are too stupid to either add a second row or to add a scrollbar. Not very likely.We know they are not the best devs in the world -- understandable, give the money they can pay -- but even a mediocre dev would be able to add more than 4 items to a menu. 😉My guess is that there are simply not enough players and they have to prioritize. And given that we now sometimes have to wait for 2 minutes to find a game I think player numbers are pretty much at am all time low.

@xVultureIn an ideal world I agree it would be nice.Unfortunately I believe there is a limit to the number of options they can show on the menu, also with the current player numbers they would worry about splitting the player base too many ways.

So we have AOW Conquest 64 player available for the third week in a row, I am hoping this is going to be permanent alongside the 128 player mode. 👍

Adding both options permanently so everyone can choose something they prefer would be ideal, but with current size of the playerbase this would give too much dispersion making finding full server games at all times of the day impossible. Especially if crossplay is switched off too. This is probably also the reason why we won't get a much requested server browser either.

You know me. I am all for it. I play a mix of both with some breakthrough.

Yeah me too I like to play both 64 / 128 player and both the current maps and those from the previous era's, you can't beat a bit of variety.

I feel like: This topic has been exhausted and the general consensus within the community does NOT align with DICE's beliefs. That being said....yes, I agree.

The fact that it has been made available for the third consecutive week makes me wonder has DICE decided that providing a permanent 64 player Conquest is the right way to go.
