Considering the announcement of no server browser for AOW, I hope DICE will consider increasing party size to 8 so that a bigger group of friends can play together.
There is currently no reasonable solution for friend groups of 5 or more to play together in AOW.
The only painful workaround is this:
1. The party of 4 searching for a game.
2. Once in the game, one of the players leaves the party and creates a new party.
3. The extra players tries to join on that new party.
4. Hope the server slots are not filled.
5. End of the match, do this whole loop again.
Step 4 sucks most of the time because if the server is full, then it could take a long time for the extra friend to get into the action.
These steps are what every clan has tried and given up in this game, because it is very frustrating and inconsistent.
This whole issue is so frustrating, because clans / big groups of friends are the biggest fans of the Battlefield franchise, we actually want to play this game together. But we are totally getting shafted. DICE is hurting its player base because eventually the friends who can't join the squad of 4 feels left out and wont be playing as much.
In general just more community orientated improvements overall.
4-5 apparently planned soon.
I might play again soon. Not going to hold my breath though, I would die.
