Can not enter a match
I haven't been able to enter a match in 3 days..not even a solo /co op match..why and is there a workaround or way to fix this since EA does not seem to care at a all..playing on ps5
Hello frand! Unfortunately (from EA/TotalFPS' point of view) a browser/persistent lobbies arent a "Heavily Discussed" request in the "community". Unfortunately there isnt going to be a solution for your inability to find a game in your (up to but not certain) $100 purchase.
However! New map changes ARE coming... well... they are being discussed. The actual map changes won't come until season 2. Yes you have that correct, season 1 starts in... whenever... september 2022? So those little map changes won't be there until 2023 at earliest.
At this point I'm not even sour about it, we should just leave the one intern left working on this game alone. Lil dude probably getting enough hate, cryin @ their desk n all that. Its just whatever at this juncture.
The sabotaging of 2042/Battlefield series feels intentional at this point.
They could fix so many issues with persistent lobbies and a server browser. US East and US West could instantly play together instead of being region locked. This would double the available players for North America.
I'm sure Europe and many other regions face similar problems. It makes zero sense for them to keep this awful, inept matchmaking system.
There's only one reason they would not do a server browser, and it's the reason that rules every decision made by every company. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
They simply don't want to pay for it.

The funny thing is: they would not even have to pay for this. They could implement it the same way they did with all the other modes (e.g. Rush), meaning the servers would not be persistent but would be spawned on demand. But they would of course be persistent until the last player leaves. The same way the normal Portal servers are handled now.
And if the just set a flag for those servers to show up in the Portal server browser, then you could even use the EXISTING server browser for portal to find the AoW servers.
They CAN do it if they want. It would cost them basically nothing. The problem is: they don't WANT to.
And yes, I agree, the word that comes to mind is sabotage as their refusal to make the experience better for the existing player base (however small it might be) can by now only be considered as an intentional effort to make the game die completely as fast as possible.
