@Sc0tch_WhiskeyNothing new to report same old stuff everyday!Thanks for the update but sorry you are still having these problems. ☹️
It's beyond frustrating and highlights why DICE really need to prioritise how to resolve this issue asap. !

I can't say I blame you as I totally understand how frustrating it is for all you guys who are unable to play BF2042.
We will keep pushing daily to try and get this resolved and have asked CM's for an answer regarding this problem.

@RayD_O1 bro I do see your passion and your hard work, and also being active in the forum and trying as much as you can.
I am a battlefield veteran myself and I love battlefield games, but we can't really do anything due to the low player count tbh buddy.I guess all we can do is just hope for the best and players to come back lol >_<

I totally understand how bad it is for you guys and that the low player count is taking it's toll now in more and more regions.
We are pushing for a change to the current MM and there is a new proposal on the go which we are hoping to get an initial response to in the next day or so, its discussed on my post about it the other day :
@DuaneDibbleyI would like to add my full support for this proposed change and would like it to be implemented asap.
As I said yesterday I have only one concern / reservation that we discussed in detail on this thread :
https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Thoughts-on-the-Feedback-Loop/td-p/11333780/page/3And I still would like to make sure DICE does something for those players who currently can't join matches in their region. I don't want them left abandoned.!!
I have always campaigned for the ultimate solution which is discussed in detail in the four threads in the links above in your proposal. But implementing your proposal NOW would definitely benefit the vast majority of players, myself included, and it would give DICE more time to work on implementing the Server Browser / Persistent servers set up we had in previous BF's.
So I would really ask DICE to implement your proposal in full asap and also ask them to follow up with an URGENT solution for all the players who can't get into matches. so we can all play the game we all paid for.
If they do implement the above proposal we will not stop until DICE provide players in all regions with the means of playing BF2042.
Whether they need to lift region locks or do some other tweaks is for DICE to decide what needs to be done.
- Sc0tch_Whiskey3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Sc0tch_Whiskey Same thing today. Not expecting anything different just updating
- RayD_O13 years agoHero
Thanks for the update. We will continue to highlight this problem until Dice take action so you guys can get in to play the game.
- Sc0tch_Whiskey3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Sc0tch_Whiskey I was able to play about five minutes of conquest 124 but that’s it. All other AOW not working as usual. And also side not you can only see the scoreboard during the match and not after the match has ended wow!

Yeah not being able to see the scoreboard at the end of the round is a bit ironic considering that's when you would want to see it most.
Maybe they are afraid it would interfere with the specialists cheesy one liners ay the end of the round.!
- Sc0tch_Whiskey3 years agoSeasoned Ace@RayD_O1 Just read they will add the scoreboard to the end of the match next update lol

- Sc0tch_Whiskey3 years agoSeasoned Ace@RayD_O1 They had so much time they couldn’t add a scoreboard at the end of the match where it counts the most. Hoping for server browser
Is like asking to find a unicorn at this point. But we will keep trying. - RayD_O13 years agoHero

As you say we will just keep plugging away until something is done about it.

DICE players on these forums have made it crystal clear that MM is not up to the job and needs replacing urgently.
- frekwalda13 years agoSeasoned Ace@RayD_O1 Just for a joke tried to go into a AOW server with cross play off tried on all modes still waiting for players, but it seems went from assassin squad to quake squad as squad leader. Went into team chat and asked anybody home no answer, so with this update changed the squad from assassin to quake to confuse people,,lol

@Pordigy86 wrote:@RayD_O1 I can find conquest games nowdays.. but not breakthrough tho I prefer breakthrough mode more. I also got into Quake squad thinking we must be having enough players, turns out it is still endless matchmaking (Breakthrough only).
it's a very sad state of affairs that you guys are having to put up with this on a daily basis, I feel your frustration.
DICE need to get their act together and sort this as a number one priority.
Players need to be able to play first and foremost. !!!!
- Sc0tch_Whiskey3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Sc0tch_Whiskey Same story. One other thing I noticed is I tried to find matches on all four AOW modes and all of them was the same
Map Renewal. - RayD_O13 years agoHero

Map Renewal.Oh the joys of MM !! Who in there wisdom thought it would be a good idea to do away with the Server Browser / Persistent Servers.?
- Sc0tch_Whiskey3 years agoSeasoned Ace@RayD_O1 Same again today.
- RMEChief3 years agoLegend@Sc0tch_Whiskey same with me, I am now giving up after two tries, it used to be about 30.
I literally can't play the game. What the hell is going on? I have literally sat in a lobby more than I have played the game in the last month.
So how many other "active" players are actually playing because it seems like a lot are stuck in lobbies.
My fear is they have reduced or capped the amount of VM servers.
So we just sit in a queue until there are enough players to start a new server, but with so few players, to get 40+ for a 128 server may take 20+ minutes or longer. Then people get impatient and leave. - Sc0tch_Whiskey3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Adamonic Yea same. But I have noticed and others on here that player count doesn’t matter. There are times when player count is high or atleast for 2042 and I can’t get into a match but when the player count is low I’ll be in a match but only after a certain time. Here for me 5am to around 10am I can’t find a match. Since I been updating this post I think maybe five times I have been able to get into a match around that time. I believe they allocate the players to a different side of the country or world. I follow this twitch streamer and he is from the east coast US and I’m west coast. When he plays I cannot. And Vice versa.
