@TAW_RinkoYes, I really wish the game had a proper server browser... Portal is not a server browser.
Launching BF2042 without a proper server browser / persistent servers is a major contributory factor to the epic failure of this game.
The BF player base was never going to accept MM as an alternative and the current player stats speak for themselves.
The mind boggles at many of the decisions they have made with BF2042 and MM is right up there as one of the worst.
For me and I apologize if this seems long.
Dedicated servers are a must have in Multiplayer fps's I've been playing since BF1942 released, it had huge maps like we have now "Running simulator" open sand box with clear objectives. What was different to me was the dedicated servers. It built a community where we would get together and make friends, compete and have a good time.
We would get together on Team Speak laugh and cry so hard. Compete on Team Warfare League.
The soul of the latest games is missing "Last 3 anyway IMHO", replaced with MM and phony dedicated servers and no way for a group of players to play together in a group.
It has no life.
Just and old guys opinion.

You have described the situation perfectly, and judging by the current player stats you are not alone in feeling that way.

Killing dedicated servers "What made Battlefield" and also being able to log on as a group, drove a wedge in the community.

The next will be considerable (April), and we're currently looking at a few hundred changes. It's mostly bug fixes, but we're also looking to make further changes to for example vehicle balance and the current behavior of attachments for weapons.
We'll provide more details on what exactly is in the update closer to its release date via a full set of update notes. I know you would like to know more now, so I want to clarify that I'm not trying to tease you by being vague - I'm simply still compiling the full list of changes for you all because it's a lot.
Edit: the update will also contain the End of Round Scoreboard functionality, and VoIP. I think this is known info, but want to share it again for those who missed it.
Nice to see you here in the forums. Will there be something like this much requested feature being implemented along with the other fixes? https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Concrete-and-simple-to-implement-proposal-that-would-im...
This is indeed a well thought out feature which could be easily implemented without much effort / cost.
@Straatford87 can you please ensure that this is passed on to the relevant people with a view to it's full implementation asap, thank you.
Yep, we've passed this one for review.
Thanks for confirming that.
I am sure I speak for many on this forum when I say we would really appreciate a positive response / action from the team regarding this issue as it really is the number one priority for many of us who want a replacement for MM asap.
Please let us know if you hear any word back from the team which you are able to pass on to us.
Just posting the above post from these two other threads as it is relevant
