IMHO the increase in number of players should have never happened, it's almost like they don't want us to play their game.
Very confusing.
I don't know it its been mentioned, but Team Death Match just went from 1 player start to 4 player start. What are they doing? In off hours it was the only game mode available at the time I play, because other game modes need high players to start.
Maybe they want us to play portal instead is only thought.
@K9_Dexter Don't think it has been mentioned, unless I just missed it or forgotten (either is definitely possible haha). I was playing TDM solo a week or two back, so it might be new. Is it just the one map or all of them?
Gonna give it a go now.
Edit: Yep. Tried Noshahr Canals, Hourglass, Reclaimed, Battle of the Bulge, and Discarded, and they were all 4 player starts.
Not nice of them to take away the last game mode that didn't need endless waiting to start.
Why not make it a 32 player start while at it?

@ElliotLHDear lord, they really want this game to stop dead in its tracks don't they?
You can really get the impression.

Sadly this is another major step backwards at a time when players are already struggling to play due to the dwindling player base. 😒
They did exactly the same thing with World Tour and several of the other Portal Official Weekly Experiences, all increased from a 1-player start to four, or more in some cases.
I still maintain that we need to get the servers started asap and backfill with AI (1 player starts), and then the AI bots get replaced with humans as more players join.
It worked perfectly well before in the Portal Official Weekly Experiences so I don't see why it wouldn't work in AOW also.
DICE please make it happen so all players can spend more time playing and less time queueing.
