Agreed, a server browser should've always been a thing in the first place.
About the declining player populace...
That's what basically happens to every game nowadays once the support ends and therefore no more content is to be awaited.
So the migration to new or still supported titles commences, no way to stop it once the damage has been done.
R.I.P. Battlefield 3, no matter what awesome game you are.
I'd really love if Battlefront II would be like GTA V, a continous monster project with new stuff all the time, like we don't need any further Battlefront if we basically just take this game and keep updating and supporting it, gladly with a good monetization concept so that it's a fair deal for everyone.
I could see EA having Success copying the borderlands model, with content updates that are like expansion packs.
