So many bots...
I find no satisfaction playing against bots. Just trying to find a game is difficult enough. When I do, it's half full of bots. 128 player game in Breakthrough and there are a couple of dozen play...

@FlatChat they're playing Battlefield? Go check out V and 4, even 3, servers are active.

True, I play V and can not feel the big difference after BF2042.
Trying out BF1 this weekend.

Try next time you guys start up the BF2042 game and go into the Portal Server Browser. Try and observe how few servers are really there by now. And also note then how many real players you actually have on them. (you can see that as the first number before the slash, which then indicates how many total players the server could actually host if more came on). It is shockingly few servers we now have live there, just few months after launch.
I looked it up last night around 1am Saturday European Central Time, so also US East Coast should be coming on at that timeslot.
Please note that I am on PlayStation and have disabled crossplay. PlayStation is the most popular system for BF games, so should be a fair indicator on current state.
There were around 23 European servers live and around 16 in the US on the BF2042 Portal. And most of them had only 1, 2 or 3 players on them. Rest was AI bots filling them up. There were 3-4 servers in both regions with 5-8 players on them. But none with more.
Then I tried firing up the old BF4, and here I had over hundreds of various servers across Europe and USA to choose from. 1/3 of them maybe with less than 10 players or so, but all the rest were like full or absolute near full with 64 players live.
It is telling that a brand new game like BF2042 is already struggling to keep players interested just 3 months after launch, and then we have BF games like BFV, BF1, BF4 and even BF3 that still keep dedicated fans coming back for more, here many many years after their original launch.
