Servers shut down during peak hours

Question

Product: Battlefield VPlatform:Sony Playstation 4Please specify your platform model. Sony PlayStation 4Which part of the game is the issue happening in? MultiplayerWhich part of the mode? ConquestPlease select your region North AmericaOn which server did this happen? When did this happen? (dd.mm.yy hh:mm) Summarize your bug Servers will shut down during peak play hours where most people are on leading to dead servers or servers with less than 30 players that wont populate How often does the bug occur? Occasionally (10% - 49%)Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play between 10 pm - 11:30 pm east coast time.What happens when the bug occurs? Server dies out.What should be happening instead? Servers shouuld not be shutting down during peak hours.‌Why this is STILL a thing is beyond me. No other BF game has had this kind of issue during peak playing hours. I can understand if its like 2 or 3 in the morning but not at 11 pm.

Maybe there could be some messages on the front page of the game as to when the servers are going to be down for maintenance? Many games do this so I imagine it should be possible in BFV.

It doesn't help to post this info on the Forums/Reddit/Twitter/Instagram as not everybody goes there for server downtime news.

There was some server maintenance in preparation for the Trial By Fire Update.

Are you saying you're getting disconnected every day? If that's the case, is it always the same time every day?&nbsp;
