Server Browser/Lobbies

Here's an image from Battlefield 6, which will have hundreds of thousands of players at launch, implementing a server browser into the game.

NHL26, which will have tens of players at launch, is still stuck with a matchmaker as the only means to connect to a game.

If any game needs a server browser, it's a niche franchise like NHL with it's small player base, especially when trying to get into 6v6 games.

The last time this franchise had server browser style lobbies was NHL 15 on PS3/360. Before the servers shutdown in 2022, I was able to launch into full 6v6 games with less than 100 people online.

I know this will go in 1 EA ear and out the other, but once a year I will continue to throw this old feature we used to have against the wall.

Thank you for your time.
