Battlefield 4 CTE PC Empty Servers?

Hey all

I saw the new updates on the CTE, with Dragon Valley, higher updaterates and even a community project!

So I installed the huge 38 gb file again and launched Battlelog, only to find empty servers, with only the Night Map called "Graveyard Shift"...

All servers are mostly empty and I have thus far seen no servers with Dragon Valley or the Community Map Project.

I have put anything on in the filter, to make sure I'm not missing anything, but apparently I do.

Now, this might be, because not all servers are online you might say. But I have already checked on different times a day.

So please help me with my problem.

PS. I live in Denmark and have enabled servers in all regions...

  • Actually, I think that it's a matter of hour/day of the week combination. You see, CTE is played by a quite low number of people (unluckily) and right now it's morning in Europe and middle of the night in America. Basically, two regions with the most CTE players are not really active at the moment. In that case I am pretty sure that CTE servers simply ARE empty at the moment.

    I guess that the number of players should go up around evening.

    But as said in my original post, I have tried different times a day, from the morning to the afternoon.

    But I might as well just check once in a while...

  • Well, I still think that it's a matter of lack of people... and when they actually gather, it usually happens in a flash. Back when I was in CTE (had to give up on it at one point) it was good when 10 people gathered during evenings (for Europe)... when people have gathered, they usually were Americans who played around 2-3 AM CET.

    Also, I suppose that keeping an eye on CTE subreddit could help when it comes to finding these... maybe. Can't really guarantee it. One reason that makes people gather on servers a bit more often is checking some particular game aspects, so that's why I think it might help.

  • Hi @Zyperspace

    As you may have noticed the servers almost empty. Only one server can be a full 64 players. This is due to the fact that not many players play in the test version of the game every day. A large number of players you can observe the day of release a major upgrade for a test environment or on the day of the game with the developers. (Play Test)  Unfortunately at the moment there is only one server with a new map.( Dragon Valley from BF2) To learn more about upcoming updates for the test environment, you can follow the news here: https://twitter.com/tiggr_
