If I wanted to play a PvE game, I wouldn't have bought BF6...

I play pretty late into the night and one of the things I have about this game that really ticks me off is that once my regions population starts to get low every lobby i get thrown into is nothing but bots. Maybe like 3-5 actual players and the entire lobby is bots. Dice or EA or whatever, if I wanted PvE, i wouldnt have bought your game. In older battlefields like BF3, BF4 and BF1 i would MUCH rather wait in queue for a populated server than play empty lobbies or bot lobbies.

I get yall have a priority to get people in game as fast as possible but don't make that decision for me, I don't mind waiting if it means I get an actual match with actual people, ya know, the point of a multiplayer PvP game...PLEASE give me the option to either wait for a full server or play outside my region during low-population times, im begging you.

It was the same **bleep** in BF 2042 and it sucked. Ideally I want the game to just go back to the way the server browser used to work where you could see every single server in the game and just pick whatever you wanted. This really sucks and I hope you guys address it.

  • Removing bots fully should be priority number one for Battlefield 6. If it's not possible for Battlefield 6, then the following game.

    As I have said in previous post, bots don't have a place in a multiplayer environment.

  • Bots are fine in Singleplayer Mode how it used to be in BF2042 and previous titles, but filling regular servers with bots is just stupid and ruins the game. There should only be bots in Casual Breakthrough, but not in any of the main game modes like Conqest, Escalation etc. if you select that in the main menu.

    I don't get bots in the main game modes in central europe, I really only get them if I play Casual Breakthrough, so it's also very much a regional problem. I think most game servers are in Germany and I live there, so I can't have any problems finding matches without bots. But it must suck for ppl that live in Australia or something.

    Somehow, there were no problems with this in the past, older titles (even Battlefield 2 with bots, with matchmaking in Battlefield 3 or 4...) were designed with intelligence - even with worse infrastructure, and today suddenly simple things to solve become an insurmountable problem for current designers.

    On official Battlefield 6 servers, only players should be matched, while on private servers (portals), any mix should be allowed.

    Introducing classic maps from previous games in the series will energize the entire community and help fill the current gaps in player participation – otherwise, there's no chance for a better future.
