Empty servers

So I have always had the problem of joining a game, only to find myself in an empty server(always Kashyyyk). I found changing my server region helped and was able to play relatively successfully, even though there was some lag involved. My server region is South Africa and Iv'e basically given up trying to find games on that region. So today, I have tried every server region, multiple times and always end up, either alone in a server, or with one or two other lost souls, hoping for a game. I have now spent about two hours, jumping from region to region, with no luck! Always alone in a server, on the Kashyyyk map? So boring and a big waste of time.. What is going on?

  • Hi EA_Ataashi, thanks for responding. The problem seems to be fixed, it was only on that day that there were no games to be found at all. I am still not finding games on my South African servers, which is a pity as that offers me the lowest ping. I do sometimes have problems of going into empty servers across various ping sites, but for the most part, a bit of patience, and I find a game to join. Not sure why the S.A. servers are not giving me games, perhaps not enough players in my region? Happy days!

    Hey @BrokenObjective

    Sorry to hear about your issue with joining servers. Since you're able to change the servers within the game, I'm assuming that you're playing on PC, is that correct?

    If yes, have you tried any troubleshooting steps mentioned in this article?

    Hey @BrokenObjective

    Thanks for your reply!

    We're aware that SWB2 South African servers are not amongst the most popular ones ☹️ Hopefully, the playerbase there will grow with time.

    I'm glad that it was only a temporary issue. Fingers crossed you won't have much trouble finding good games on other servers 🤞

    Good day @EA_Ataashi

    Please could you tell me why I don't even get any South African games? When I get put into empty servers does that mean not over person on South Africa is playing?
