Endless Matchmaking - Waiting For Players
Hi, It started approximately 2 weeks ago, I click play on Breakthrough (128 players) and I could not find a game at all, I do get a game or two in Conquest (128 players) after long hours of queue. I ...
Forum Discussion
At this point in time we can't be sure exactly how MM is working.
The only thing I am sure of is that MM is not working satisfactorily for the many players who are asking for a proper server browser system.
I personally don't believe MM will ever be up to the job unless it is used exclusively for the quick match option alongside a proper server browser / persistent servers system for those who want to play and stay on servers of their choice.
Imho DICE need to act on this asap before BF2042 loses any more players who are leaving either because they can't get into the game or are sick of playing the same map over and over etc....
There is a sort of browser but in portal for the older maps i have found

Yes indeed, the problem is Portal has turned out to be a major disappointment for most players. ☹️
It has had many issues including XP caps and progression restrictions so is now full of mostly empty servers.
Imho BF2042 needs a proper server browser / persistent servers in AOW just like previous BF's and there are many players on many threads on this forum calling for MM to be replaced asap.
Agreed
- @Priv8Ryan We all just need to keep pushing for DICE to bring a proper server browser / perisistent servers to AOW by posting here daily.
- @RayD_O1 I've been going to portal to play TDM and Rush as it is the only place i can play in this game that is not buggy and laggy and as I have not been able to get into a AOW server since Dec 3rd with cross play off.

DICE needs to sort this urgently before the player base shrinks even further.

Server Browser is a must. MM is broken, just apply it to the server you join and place you on the team that is more appropriate for your skill level.

Totally agree, Server Browser is definitely a MUST and should never have been removed.
DICE we need you to bring it back SOON. !!
Anyone on here know if there are any Australian Squads or platoons for this game

Sorry I am unable to help you on that.
Can I just ask are you able to join matches at the moment in your region.?
Yeah I can but not at all times during the day weekends are better or late afternoons I’m in east coast Australia

Thanks, so its a combination of drop in player numbers / MM issues.
Yeah I live in New Zealand, unfortunately the only game that exists before ~7-8pm our time is 128p CQ.
It's currently 7:39pm here and I still cannot get into a 64p BT game (128p BT has been non existant for weeks).
- @JarskyPlays Hopefully if DICE introduce a Server Browser system you may be able to find matches easier. Lets keep pushing to have MM replaced .
DICE you really need to replace MM asap so all players can access the game. !
- @RayD_O1 Yep still having the problem of not getting into a AOW server unless I turn on cross play then it is unplayable. When i go to Portal and play TDM or Rush with cross play on can play no problem. But i would like to turn cross play off and play on a server. I am in Northern Canada and play on a PC. As I usually play late at night for a few hours after work, so i usually miss peak times for my area.
Just so you know my internet speeds are 1GB and test my speeds a lot when i see problems and usually it is not my end but server side.
A Few years ago when EA servers were directed though a 3rd party host server and hop a few times from a certain server provider it would cause problems. For the life of me can not remember the provider. Wondering if some of this is causing connection issue beside the low player count in certain regions.

I am UK based and a PC player, I had to turn on crossplay a while back as the waiting times in the lobby were annoying me with crossplay turned off.
As I have mentioned many times I think the only solution is to replace MM so we can all choose the servers we play on.
Hopefully DICE responds favourably to our requests.
- @frekwalda1 Please keep highlighting your issues regularly so we can keep the pressure on for DICE to give us the Server Browser / Persistent Servers we had in previous BF's.
Please remember to keep posting your regular support for replacing the current MM with the Server Browser / Persistent Servers system we had in previous BF's, thanks.

Not acceptable, we need to keep pushing daily for a proper Server Browser / Persistent Servers system until this gets sorted and you guys are able to play. !

Posting daily to keep this and other related threads alive, and hoping that DICE will reward us with a proper server browser set up like previous BF's.
