@RayD_O1Once again you have portal for that .. AllOut warfare us based on matchmaking giving you the opportunity to fight different team every match on different maps and i am fine with it ..
Thats said there could be some improovement to prevents players from getting the same maps multiples time in a row ..
But BF3 and 4 were especially cancerous with this having 90% of the servers being player own with crappy 24/7 metro or 24/7 caspian border .. I dont want that in AOW this type of thing belong in portal for those enjoying this ..
also poeoples should give it a rest with so call progression there was no progression in older BF and poeples played for fun not to grind ..
Portal as it stands does not provide a decent experience imho.
It is mostly full of Hardcore servers which is fine for those who enjoy HC, no problem with that, but no where near enough non HC servers running BF2042 AOW maps.
The rest are near empty servers as hardly anyone is playing on Portal because of progression issues etc...
As I said BFV had a server browser, but did not allow players to rent the servers so the problem you refer to regarding Single Map servers would not be an issue. I think they may have allowed some form of server customisation later on in BFV but they weren't very popular so the majority played the normal modes.
If AOW adopted the same system as BFV I suspect most players would accept not being able to rent servers. If they wanted the ability to run custom servers then maybe they could use Portal as you suggest.
But I still say AOW would be a much better experience with a BFV style server browser than the MM system we currently have in place.
As I said before we probably need to agree to disagree on this and the only way to keep everyone happy would be to have the option to choose MM or server browser. Unfortunately I doubt we will see that option any time soon.

@RayD_O190% of BF4 servers were also empty some had 5/64 and so on Portal is at that image .. AOW use matchmaking wich is amasing and fill up servers super fast and fill the spots left by quitters
I am comparing it against BFV which is the most recent BF in the franchise.
You claim MM to be amazing as it fills up servers superfast. When I joined a server in BFV with 63 players it was already filled before I chose to play it which in my mind is equally amazing. I could then stay on that server and play through the whole map rotation and that was amazing.MM puts you back in the lobby after every single map.
At certain times of the day or in less popular regions some players complain they are joining AOW lobbies and waiting for players. During these waits some players leave as they are fed up waiting. This exacerbates the problem which can lead to the remaining players being dumped back to the lobby to start over.
So as I previously said MM may suit your needs perfectly and that's fine but you need to accept that the majority of players on this forum do not enjoy MM. No amount of posts will change that anymore than I will be able to convince you that a Server Browser is the better option
