DICE TeamHey everyone,
We have an update about server for Firestorm in Australia.
Hello Battlefield V: Firestorm players!
As you know, we released Battlefield V: Firestorm on Monday, March 25th, 2019. Since then we’ve been listening to feedback from our players around the globe.
One of the key points we’ve focused on is the matchmaking in specific regions – particularly Brazil, Australia/Oceania, and South Africa.
Matchmaking in Battlefield V: Firestorm requires a certain amount of players to be connecting at the same time to initiate a server. Unfortunately, in some regions with lower player populations, this increases matchmaking time or forces players to connect to pingsites that are more populated.
We are continuing to look at options to improve this situation without having players connect to empty servers, and we’re always listening to your feedback. We’ll keep you posted on any updates or changes as we identify and roll out more solutions.
Thanks and we’ll see you on the battlefield!

Why can't you provide a dedicated Oceania Server or two for Australia/NZ so we can actually play this game we paid for ?
Lower the player count down to 32 or 16 if that is possible. We don't need 64 players every game to play.
I totally agree that EA and DICE are dropping the ball on the firestorm mode for oceania region.
We cannot complete assignments or tide of war achievements when you can't play a game.
Wake up and do something to help the player base.
People are getting frustrated and will no longer play this mode.
The community manager should at least keep this thread updated with the current plans.
Or is it typical he has no power to change anything and EA does not care.
OMG it looks like they have fixed it! We can join servers easy as tonight. Now we just need people to join to populate them! only 8 people in this server!
