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.....
I wish that was indeed the case @Trokey66 , but I have myself confirmed at multiple occasions now to be placed into games with players both from Japan and South America. And I am myself based in Europe. (when playing on PS5 and cross play disabled, AOW Breakthrough 128 players game mode). Confirmed by simply messaging some of the other players you see in the game via the Sony PS5 messenger service. But yes, I assume they were honest in their messaging on their locations. The lack of hit registration was the reason I tried to message some of them, and in most cases they were far out of region players... (this was back in mid January 2022)
The server browser and the scoreboard need both to display the latency rate. Both to the servers and also to the individual players in the game on the servers. Just as the PC players have had it for many years when renting BF servers.
I agree, I don't believe there is a region/ping lock.
Once in a while there are matches that just 'feel weird'.
Sometime hit registration is off, and I wonder if I am too close to an object, that I hit an invisible wall, or if my bullets only hit air.
Then you have the friends or enemies that leave a frozen image of their likely hood, while they are still moving around somewhere else.

Yeah I have been experiencing more of these type of incidents in recent days too.
I came up behind a guy and emptied a whole clip into him and he continued to run on around the corner, even I am not that bad a shot. 😃
Also have noticed some occasions of the frozen images you refer to, not good.!!
