The real answer to OP's relevant question:
Empty servers, where are the players?
Is that the millions of players that bought this game have left. They are long gone and moved on to play other games.
Even NA MM system can't fill conquest 128 player mode later at night, stopping at 20-23 players before hitting the magic 25% (32 player) count, and then it times out around 28 players and dumps everyone back to the lobby right before it fills and starts...

Solution = Server Browser
No season 3 or 4 will help this game to gain close to the players BF1 has right now.
The problem is, they are still ignoring one of the most glaring flaws of this game: MM
MM was originally made for console players. There is a reason that EVERY previews BF game had a server browser and Persistent Servers. I don't know how many times I joined a game with less than 100 tickets left. Or a match that was over. Or waiting in the lobby forever. Theres no squad management. I cant even pick the map i want to play.
So yes Solution is a SERVER BROWSER indeed.

All OK with what you say @Buzzfunk ,
All of course except I dont see why console players particular should be punished by having MatchMaking vs PC-world???
Why would MM be made specifically for the console world? Dont get that EA would make such function only for two of the 3 platforms only. Especially also considering EA Dev team made platform agnostic code here also for BF2042 to enable crossplay.
Console players wants to have visibility and individual choice by using a Server Browser as much as also the PC players wants this! :o)
- @CyberDyme I never said anything about anyone needed to get "punished"? What are you talking about?
My point was, MM originated in the early 2000's with Halo. On consoles. It was meant to make the process simpler but in reality its hindering 2042 to gain more players. And sure, console players should also have a server list, why not?
Like i said before, they can keep their MM garbage but at least let me decide what maps i DONT wanna play and make a filter that allows me to say "i dont wanna join any game if Tickets are = >400 (for example).
