Reduce the number of players needed to start a round

With the Player Base rapidly shrinking I think it is even more important now that they reduce the number of players needed to start a round. I notice that they actually increased the number of playe...

Yeah, got hit by a MM fail the other night, match was filling then people leaving because of the wait. Had to leave and find another server.

Reducing the number to start sounds like it would work.

@sk1lld I have long thought that apparently the game automatically returns you to home if you are in the matchmaking standby screen and have been inactive for a long time. If this were not the case, I think some players would be a little more patient waiting...

    It doesn’t help that there are so many different playlists.

    Players are scattered around, waiting in all these different playlists.

    The past week it was something like this;

    Close combat Conquest

    Conquest

    Breakthrough

    TDM

    TDM on Haven

    TDM Greatest Hits

    Some player-created game mode

    Some sniping game mode

    1942 game mode

    and finally Portal.

      Good to hear numbers are actually dropping to the point they can't fill servers

      Just tried 2042 again after like months again, quit S7 day one cuz of the horrible Haven map and the time gated LMG.

      Load in, notice CQC (no more Redacted....) it puts me into the Haven map, worst map by far. Either shooting at red triangles in the distance or getting shot in the back.

      Giving a map zero vehicles doesn't make it CQC......

      Uninstalled, just sad how everything turned out and never even managed to make a come back

      Excellent point.  When I first started to play I was confused by all the choices and didn't know what to pick.  It took a long time to realize the funnest one is TDM and that's the one they chose to *.  Thanks EA.  Personally, if they don't re-enable it I will make it a point to never by any EA game again.
