They need a damn server browser. So we can see what server is filling up and join it. Also need servers to rotate maps while keeping the server populated. Sick and tired of finding a new server after a match only to be put back into the damn map repeatedly.

You and me both, I want to spend my time actually playing the game rather than spending time in lobbies just to get put in the same map again.
Many players are unable to join matches in their regions and that is unacceptable, they paid for the game and need access.
MM does not work in a BF game and should only be used for a quick match option alongside a proper server browser / persistent servers, just
like we had on all previous BF's, !
Been getting this in UK too. Yesterday couldnt even find a filled hardcore rush server, while i was trying i was finding like 3-7ish people. AOW gets stuck in waiting, its getting worse because the players are dwindling. Server browser is so desperately needed otherwise there will be no one left at all.
May as well end up playing solo/coop but cant even unlock things or get ribbons etc.

As you rightly say a server browser is desperately needed if BF2042 is to survive.
The "Waiting for X Players to Join" has become a mini-game inside the game that isn't much fun to play anymore. Not only does the "Waiting for X Players" meter go from 5 to 24 to 12 to 15 to 7 to 3 to 6 to 1 to zero if you are lucky....the 30 seconds timer that starts after hitting the magic zero more players needed ACTUALLY STOPS if one player quits during the 30 second countdown...🤔
Is the 30 second countdown needed??? At least when it does stop when a player quits, it does not reset back to 30 seconds but do we really need a 30 second countdown?

It's a mini game that nobody has time for, we need to spend our leisure time playing the game not waiting around in lobbies.

@DeepSixxxxSometimes right before the match countdown starts if you been sitting in the lobby waiting and the timer is up it kicks us and then the countdown starts all over. MM was supposed to be where players get into a match say 10 vs 10 and the ai would fill in until more players joined. Then I heard that you now have to have a certain amount of actual players waiting. They change things as they go along.
Yeah and they aren't changes for the better unfortunately.

@Sc0tch_WhiskeyYes I got kicked multiple times recently waiting in the lobby, right before the player counter hits zero players and starts. Then I get back into the same game server and noticed it has kicked a bunch of players and the counter is back up higher. Almost as if it is designed to not start as why would it kick players right before enough join to start a game? Really weird programming logic...
It makes no sense whatsoever, BF games have always had a server browser and BF2042 needs to add one asap so all players can spend time playing not waiting to play. !
