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 ...

MM should only be for the "Quick Match" option where you don't care and want to get into a game immediately.
Otherwise, add server browser and queues. This is what you call a Quality of Life improvement. It needs to have filters for region, game mode, # of players, and map. Very easy to implement, but has a huge impact on the QoL for the remaining 2000 people who want to play the game.

100 % correct,
We need Server Browser / Persistent Servers like we had in previous BF's.
And as you rightly say MM for "Quick Match" for anyone who want to use that option.
DICE please bring back these QoL features in the coming updates and stop players having to put up with MM and all it's frustrations.
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.
For the past 2 weeks my friend and I have been completely unable to get a PS only match on AOW for 64 player conquest. We play at what I would consider "peak time".
If we have to persist with the current matchmaking, could the game at least start when 2 or more people are waiting, as we see people constantly joining and dropping out due to the game not starting. It wouldn't be my ideal or preferred solution (would much prefer a server browser) but it would at least mean we could play our preferred game mode when we want to.
Hope some changes are coming to this in the upcoming patch (although we aren't expecting any).

Sorry to hear yet another player is facing difficulties with MM. ☹️
DICE something needs to be done urgently to help ALL players to be able to play BF2042 whenever they choose not when MM decides. !
The only viable solution is to provide a proper server browser / persistent servers system asap.
@RayD_O1Thanks man 🙂
We're fairly patient, sometimes we try cross play, sometimes try other modes (which we don't really enjoy as much) or we see if we can find a server on the portal (normally without much success).
For both of us it feels like a degradation of the whole experience ☹️. We never had a problem in any previous BF all the way back to 1942 - so it really is a bit of a shame to encounter these kind of issues this time around!
We see the same user names coming and going most evenings so we always assume we aren't the only ones in this position.

Are you still having these issues. ?Yeah we can no longer find a 64 player conquest game on PS5, regardless of time of day unless we rely on crossplay.
We don’t really like crossplay because keyboard/mouse always felt very advantageous, if there was a console only crossplay option that would be great, but unfortunately there isn’t.
We’re a bit limited at the moment. We stick with modes we like less or we try our luck in the portal. It’s very much hit or miss. 😔
