Maybe that’s because in all their wisdom they decided that this shouldn’t be the default but rather an exception. So by default most people are just loading in conquest because they don’t know any better.
That doesn’t mean people prefer open over closed weapons. That also doesn’t mean open is better than closed. It’s just a practical result of a choice that was already made for us.

Having restrictions makes you think more about which class you should choose and which weapons come with that class. And the perks you get should also complement the weapons you get. playing engineer and being able to bring a sniper rifle is just stupid. Playing a recon and being able to bring an LMG…just as stupid.

They probably have cross-play off so that explains the servers aren't filling for them. Zero issues filling servers on the closed playlist.

And yeah I did not like the way they handled the naming conventions for the modes and on top of that closed got pushed further down the playlist options. Kind of annoying. Game plays WAY better with the defined class system.
