Still nothing being done by EA/Dice about the lack of servers to play MP on. Whether I have a filter set, or no filter set. After the last DLC I haven't been able to play all of new maps because they simply don't show up in the browser. If I set the filter for the 'slots open" filter and use "none 16, 24, 48, 64 and all" and have most of the game modes and maps chosen, I frequently get "NO SERVERS FOUND" "change your filter and try again". So, I reset the filter and try again. Only to get the same results. About the only time I can find servers with open slots to play is late, late at night (morning really). I have found that servers are either completely full with a deep queue or are completely empty with no players joining. Nothing much in between. And this goes for the CTE Alpha of Incursions as well. Matchmaking takes forever and usually finds no servers to play on. This situation has gotten worse, not better with each successive DLC. I have gone back to playing BF4 because at least I can find servers to play on. This problem which has been ignored by EA/Dice will most definitely influence my decision on whether to buy the next franchise from EA/Dice. This stinks!
Hey @MoonUtonight,
Sorry to hear that you cannot find any Servers.
As far as Incursions Alpha goes, the matchmaking now is based off of Rank, and how well you perform in the Game.
So, if there aren't many people matchmaking that are the same or close to the same Rank as you, it may take more time to find a Match.
This was done, so that you don't get matched with a bunch of people that are a higher rank than your Team. Hope that makes sense.
As far as the Base Game goes in Server Browser, I see you've reset your filters and everything.
Are you still not able to find Servers?
What mode are you searching for?
Thanks 🙂

I don't play Incursions all that much because of the wait time to find a match. I don't care what metrics are being employed. I get it that is a Alpha test game at the moment. However, there is no excuse for not being able to find servers for MP in BF1. As I have stated time and time again, it doesn't matter how I set the filters or if I don't use a filter at all. When I use a filter I am primarily looking for Conquest, Conquest Assault, TDM (which is one of the few game modes that will show a couple of servers with available slots), Frontlines, Domination and Operations. So, when I use the filter I am only filtering out a few game modes. If I set the filter for "available slots" to "none", I see quite a few servers with (usually) long queues. If I select "10+" I will see lots of servers with just 1 or maybe 2 people "sitting" on them. I used to be able to play Conquest almost exclusively and be able to find plenty of servers to play on. I may have had to wait a bit in a queue, but eventually I got into the game. Now, about the only time I can find a server with an open slot or two is very late at night. Forget about it during normal daytime hours. It is nothing but frustration usually. Occasionally I can find a game of Ops to play. But since the new DLC came out, I have only been able to play a couple of the new maps due to not being able to find enough servers to play on. I am on the East Coast. Usually if I find a server to be able to join, It is on the West Coast. Which makes for lag and slow response times. I have a very good Internet connection. My ping averages between 20ms to 30ms. So, it is not a problem on my end.

Let me add that I don't have this issue very often if I play BF4 MP. There are usually plenty of servers with the maps I want to play as well as the game modes I want. And, I don't have to employ the filter to be able to find them.
