I am playing in South Africa and i agree with everything and have seen it over and over myself in our region. I am trying to play TDM and Squad TDM for the challenge and when i try matchmake im thrown into a lobby with maybe 4 humans and 4 bots..as more humans come in, they take the bots place but the game never starts as we never quite get to 14/14 players to start the **bleep** game.
More interesting to this though is something else iv noticed which i think is even more serious of an issue. I will load into a TDM lobby for example and see 4 human players. After 10mins of waiting, il return to the main menu, search again and then see another 4 or 5 human players in another lobby. I will then repeat the process 4 or 5 times and keep seeing DIFFERENT players in DIFFERENT lobbies. So what this tells me is, there are enough players searching for that game mode, but DICE decides to seperate everyone and put 4 players on different servers instead of just putting 14 players into one match. It makes zero sense.
Oh and how could all of these issues have been avoided - OLD SCHOOL SERVER BROWSER LIKE EVERYONE ASKED FOR.
100% nailed what you said, I'm also from South Africa. I got really frustrated about this the last few days.
