Portal Conquest round in BF6 will not start with less than 32 players in the lobby.
This occurs regardless of total play count configured in portal. I.e. 64 player round with NO bots requires 32 players to start. ALSO A 2 VS 2 STILL REQUIRES 32 PLAYERS TO START!
This is forcing creators to enable bots to backfill or the custom games round will not start!

Same this is crazyy
Running a portal server with many regular players does not require having to top with bots. Previous title/s proves that. While the server is being populated it gives opportunities to mess around with pistols only and such. It's part of the package.
This needs to be fixed ASAP. We cannot get our community server up and running with the current minimum player requirements. Players should be forced to play with bots on custom servers.
Holy **bleep** this is so stupid. Definitely shouldnt be forced to play with bots to start the game.
The minimum player requirement for portal should be disabled altogether! Make it work like the dedicated servers back during the BF4 era where you could start a 64 player game with just a couple people if you wanted.
EA has updated this and you can now make a bot free server and it starts with any number of players , winning 👍 and because it's bot free it's FULL XP
