@DuaneDibbleyOh I see that, I thought you mentioned posting it on Monday, that's why I suggested the above.
Yes, I thought about NOT spending my weekend here and wanted to do that on Monday. At work I often have downtime of approx 45 minutes when doing large scale changes to our code base, waiting for a full recompile and running all unit tests. Usually I would do code reviews for other developers then, but because last week many of us took a few days off (there is 'carneval holiday(s)' in Germany), I had some time to post here. But as most colleagues are back next week, those downtime periods will be filled and I will only be able to post in the evening anyway.
Therefore I posted my proposal today. If you want, I can also link your threads there directly by adding a PS to my proposal. But I honestly believe that this concrete one proposal that can easily be done should be addressed first (not because it is 'mine', but because it is so easy to implement and would provide such a big benefit for all players). And if they neither do it soon or at least respond with a good reason why they don't, then we know how honest this 'We care and are working with full force on making this a good game' really was.

Feel free to link these main 4 threads to the proposal, anything that adds more weight / support can't do any harm can it. !

Everyone on here should have a read about a new proposal on this thread :
Re: Concrete and simple to implement proposal that would improve BF2042 TODAY - Answer HQ

Here's why you wont get a server browser.
1. Scoreboard alone has taken several months. A browser is probably more involved than a scoreboard, so you can probably forget about it.
2. Instead of knowing where their barebones maps need cover, they have to ask the community to figure it out for them. Again, a browser is probably even more involved so that doesnt bode well.
3. Having a browser of all active servers exposes the low player counts that they've never admitted to nor spoken about. If theres 4k active players on PC (2k steam 2k origin)( and you install a server browser with crossplay off, 4k / 128 = 31 games running concurrently for 150 countries.
Now if you consider that hypothetical ISNT reality, and those 4k-ish players are divided amongst 64, 128, conquest, breakthrough, and the 2 active portal servers (LMFAO) at any given time, it looks a lot worse. Makes for about 7 active games per mode.
This is all with crossplay off but yeah, a server browser effectively exposes the evidence they probably quietly deny and hope to never have to speak to.

@M0istGamerI hear what you are saying and you may well be proved right, only time will tell.
In the meantime we will keep pushing DICE to implement our request, or at least to get an answer as to why not.
