Reduce the number of players needed to start a round

    @RayD_O1  This feedback has been passed on to the team.

@RayD_O1 I agree.

We also have a friend that gets kicked out of the match and party about 50% of the time. I'm sure he is not the only one. This change would increase his chances of rejoining.

After all, there is a long animation, plus 30 (infantry) or 36 (vehicles) seconds to spawn, so there is no point in aiming for 64/128 players if at this point and shortly after the round starts, people are just trying to get in a vehicle.

Good idea I usually play with crossplay off until about 2 am then I’m sure most PlayStation players go to there beds😂 then I have to turn on crossplay if I want to continue playing a bit longer.

    Yeah I tried playing with crossplay off (PC) and had to give up on it, but I think reducing the player numbers required would help all round.

    DICE would you please even consider giving this a trial go. ?

      I'm surprised no one has realised yet but the counter for number of players needed to start the round is bugged

      If you look at the scoreboard you can see that sometimes there's double the amount of people in the lobby than what the counter says

        Time of day matters.  I am retired and like to play in the morning.   Phx AZ MTN time zone

        Getting games to spawn, much less games not littered with AI is a problem.

        Later in the afternoon, I "usually" do not have issues getting a game, even though AI may be in them.
