@RayD_O1They don’t care about the game anymore or what we all have to say about MM. sorry don’t mean to be the negative Nancy but it’s true. They posted on Twitter they changed their weekly game modes to 3 from 5? That’s priority for them and not being able to play when we want?What about being able to actually play the game? If we can actually play when we want maybe then the game would have more players.
I don't blame you for being negative.
Lets be honest it is virtually impossible to feel optimism when we are never given anything to be positive about.
A statement from DICE saying we hear you and are working on a fix / alternative to MM would go a long way to reducing that negativity / anger that is very evident within the community.
Even a statement saying that it will not be changed would allow players to move on, but this wall of silence breeds toxicity towards BF2042 and will do nothing for the BF reputation going forward.
Being able to play the game is a fundamental right that is currently being denied to many players and this has left the BF2042 player base dead in the water.

It seems the only way to get an aswer is to ask e.g. JackFrags to take a look at our proposal and then retweet it 😉 - RMEChief3 years agoLegend@DuaneDibbley yep, and from I am being told, some of the top streamers are paid streamers, so they work for EA/DICE in some capacity. That is why you see all the interaction between them and CMs.
EA/DICE could care less about the rest of the community. - Sc0tch_Whiskey3 years agoSeasoned Ace@Adamonic Best advice don’t always believe what YouTubers say. They also follow the bandwagon to get likes and that goes for all content not just gaming. They say they have given up on BF 2042 yet they keep making content for it lol
- RMEChief3 years agoLegend@Sc0tch_Whiskey oh I know, just trying to get their clicks, what a terrible life to live, lol.

- frekwalda13 years agoSeasoned Ace@RayD_O1 I for one would like to play the game but still not working for me always waiting on players in various squads. Not going to turn cross play on just so I can get into an unplayable game.
Like I mention in another post, known issues has not been updated since 8th March and at the very bottom is this little tidbit. Well sure as not being keeping the community informed.

DICE can you please help all players who are currently unable to join games due to Matchmaking problems.
You need to prioritise this so players can get to play the game they paid for. !!
On this forum there are many threads where players are asking for a proper Server Browser / Persistent Server system to replace MM which is simply not up to the job for reasons spelt out on these threads :

Dice can you please step up and sort this it has been allowed to continue for too long.
Players need to be able to play the game they paid for. - 3 years ago
I just wanted to say that I completely agree.
The game is completely unplayable at the moment for many of the few remaining who even want to play it. I don't understand how DICE can leave this unrectified for so long without offering refunds, many people can't even utilize the product they paid for.
- edgecrusherO03 years agoSeasoned Ace@Dsmilees DICE never promised they'd sell us a playable, populated game. And they sure don't seem like they have any motivation to fix the game given the fact that we're almost 3 full months into the year and all they've done is fix a few bugs, add a scoreboard (freakin lol), and have VOIP and "vague talk about vehicle balance and a weapon mod rework" but won't share anything more, despite the update coming next month.
DICE can leave this as-is and continue abandoning this game because there's nothing stopping them from doing so. All they have to do is deliver the bare-minimum on S1 and they can pack it in and focus on the next BF, which is starting production now, while hoping that people will forget how terribly they handled 2042. - RayD_O13 years agoHero

That's why we need to keep pushing for DICE to sort this so all players have access to the game they paid for.

Thanks

The next will be considerable (April), and we're currently looking at a few hundred changes. It's mostly bug fixes, but we're also looking to make further changes to for example vehicle balance and the current behavior of attachments for weapons.
We'll provide more details on what exactly is in the update closer to its release date via a full set of update notes. I know you would like to know more now, so I want to clarify that I'm not trying to tease you by being vague - I'm simply still compiling the full list of changes for you all because it's a lot.
Edit: the update will also contain the End of Round Scoreboard functionality, and VoIP. I think this is known info, but want to share it again for those who missed it.
Nice to see you here in the forums. Will there be something like this much requested feature being implemented along with the other fixes? https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Concrete-and-simple-to-implement-proposal-that-would-im...
This is indeed a well thought out feature which could be easily implemented without much effort / cost.
@Straatford87 can you please ensure that this is passed on to the relevant people with a view to it's full implementation asap, thank you.
Yep, we've passed this one for review.
Thanks for confirming that.
I am sure I speak for many on this forum when I say we would really appreciate a positive response / action from the team regarding this issue as it really is the number one priority for many of us who want a replacement for MM asap.
Please let us know if you hear any word back from the team which you are able to pass on to us.
Just posting the above post from these two other threads as it is relevant
