Remove bot

After each match in Battlefield 6, the lobby breaks apart and players are redistributed.
This causes the next map to start with far fewer real players, even though other matches are full.
Bots are added too quickly instead of prioritizing real-player backfill, which makes players leave.
Battlefield 1 worked because servers stayed together and had no bots.
Please keep persistent lobbies and remove bots from core modes, especially for the Asia region.

  • Matchmake servers have competing priorities and one of them is speed.

    I suggest that you use the server browser to join a community rush, breakthrough, or conquest server. There are often half a dozen full servers to choose from, and more that are nearly full. You can join a queue for a full server, or join a nearly full server.  The benefit is that they don't matchmake between rounds, don't break up the players or parties between rounds, are persistent, and you will rarely see a bot backfill a server since once they are full they tend to stay full.

    If you need help learning how to use a server browser, I have provided all sorts of instructions earlier. Exhaustively. To the point that some people think it is hard. It isn't. People just need to start doing it instead of complaining about matchmaking. Basically, click server browser, click filter, click maps&modes, select rush, breakthrough, and conquest (the verified modes that won't be funny-business servers), and apply the filter. Then, if you don't find the servers populated to the level you like, add the filter for 1-5 free slots, 6-10 free slots, or full (instead of 'for party') as you see fit.
