Re: Reduce the number of players needed to start a round

Yes they want to force crossplay on us. Then for the next game they can say that the data shows that everybody loves crossplay.

@RanzigeRidder2even with crossplay on, I really struggle to find an active server during peak times (in Oceania). Usually play a little Portal, then give up.

I would imagine that this is becoming more common for players in most regions.

Therefore the need for 1-player starts has become even more critical if BF2042 is to remain active until the next BF title arrives.

DICE please make it happen so all players can get the best out of BF2042. 

Hard to find matches even with cross-play, unless go to portal

The game needs one player starts.

We need this to keep the game alive, please make it happen.

@RayD_O1Yes, with the next BF not launching anytime soon, and competition like Delta Force around the corner it would be in their own best interest to keep BF2042 alive for as long as possible.

So 1-player starts really is necessary!

My stance on crossplay is clear, so the moment I can’t find matches without it anymore I’m done with this game.

100% this, I strongly believe that 1-player starts are needed urgently to stop players from leaving and moving on to other games due to the lack of access to BF2042.

It should be so simple to implement  as a lot of the Weekly Official Portal Experiences such as World Tour etc used to be 1-player starts up until a few months ago.  

Flip the switch Dice!

@RayD_O1Yep should indeed be easy to implement. We had it before so bring it back!

And the sooner the better I say, so all players have access at all times.

DICE please make it happen.

DICE please introduce 1-player starts in all game modes so all players have access at all times.

Imho it will help keep BF2042 alive until the next Battlefield.

I agree reduce the number of players and let it back fill with real players as the match goes on.

Imho they should be looking at all aspects of player retention.

Reducing the number of players needed to start a round would be simple to implement and would help all players to get the best out of BF2042 until the next BF arrives.

Really missing the 1-player starts that we had previously on the Official Weekly Portal Experiences. ☹️

I firmly believe that the introduction of 1-player starts for all game modes in AOW / Official Portal Experiences would truly benefit all players and help keep BF2042 alive. 

Everyone would benefit from one-player-starts.
