Forum Discussion
The purpose of this thread is to try to coordinate all our efforts into one main thread and to finally get our message through to DICE that MM is just not working.
If you want change and would like to see MM replaced then be sure to make your voice heard by posting your support.
DICE can you please help all players who are currently unable to join games due to Matchmaking problems.
You need to prioritise this so players can get to play the game they paid for. !!
On this forum there are many threads where players are asking for a proper Server Browser / Persistent Server system to replace MM which is simply not up to the job for reasons spelt out on these threads :
Endless Matchmaking - Waiting For Players (Asia) - Answer HQ (ea.com)
Add a server browser please, I want to do the weekly challenges !! - Answer HQ
DICE add a Server Browser / Persistent Servers to AOW - Answer HQ
What are the top 3 things you would change about BF2042 ? - Answer HQ
MM is just an unnecessary frustration which is causing players to spend hours searching for a game or are unable to play at all.!!
Even players who are lucky enough to get to play are constantly complaining about having to play the same map over and over or don't get to play certain maps for days.
It is evident that BF2042 can not continue with an MM system which is totally inadequate and is destroying players enjoyment of the game.
Anyone having these MM issues should add your weight to this thread daily and keep it at the top of the list.
DICE you really need to take urgent action to resolve this major issue which is driving players away from BF2042.
Im all in for a serverbrowser as i believe it can solve problems that most of us are having.
Hopefully a serverbrowser may safe you (DICE/EA) from losing a large playerbase...and for those who already left deciding to come back and give it another try.
Time to reach out and touch and be the triple A company you always were.
Ow and don't forget to fix the other problems also.

Yes like you I think it essential that this is added, and hopefully it may yet save the BF2042 player base.
I have every sympathy with players being unable too find games through MM and of course, should be looked at as a priority but this seems to be region related.
Perhaps DICE has listened to one of the major complaints on here and included a region/ping lock in MM.
A return to a Server Browser would negate that and we would return to "why won't DICE put in a region/ping lock because the game is unplayable with out of region players cheating!".
Of course, I may be wrong but we don't know how MM works exactly.
All I'm saying is, be careful what we wish for.....
They could have introduced something in between though right.
the whole point of a server browser is to easily and consistent key bring players together.
to be able to easily find the same players, again.
Portal has it? So why doesn’t AOW? Hell it’s not a hard UX problem to say create a Psuedo browser, perhaps based on a real world map, that reflects the in game world. players being able to select a region, brigade or faction. That essentially pools players into a populated rota of Exisiting MM servers they currently have.
there are all sorts of cool and clever ways one could create an experience that works for the story, the team play and the real world players in difficult to connect regions of the real world.
