PC lobbies for PVZ Battle for Neighborville are empty

I can't play PVZ Battle for Neighborville for PC, I literally can't play because the lobbies are empty. I can't get coins, prize bulbs or rainbow stars because the lobbies are empty. Only mode i can ...

I’m on the West Coast. I usually find success in finding full games at these times:

NA East: 9am-8pm

NA West 8pm-1am

Europe 1am-9am

I’m almost always finding full games if I stick to these times. 

It’s unfortunate that we have to switch regions to make it work, but meh..

Good luck!

+1 to crossplay!

@Shinobicap NA East and NA West join to the same lobbies.

      You can test this by leaving a lobby that isn’t full and switching regions and rejoining the same mode quickly. You’ll notice the same people in the lobby that were in “different” regions.

      I’ve noticed this with GW2 on PS4, too.  Seems like I saw this in BfN with TV but can’t be sure/don’t remember.

      @Shinobicap You're hitting closest server depending on where you live but they join the same lobby...assuming server A and B both link to C. Not sure what they are doing behind the scenes but assume someone is getting the poopy end of the lag stick. I play Europe at a 122 ping all the time and no difference between that and my supposed NA East 32 ping so my guess is NA East is getting the crap end of the stick but not sure.
