@GrizzGolf That show's you how much respect dice/ea have for it's customers.
Any other service not games and they would have gone out of business a long time ago.

@PL_tommi___t Well said, I won't be wasting anymore money on the next BF until I see a server browser back and no specialists. I want a normal BF again.

As for the Tubers, I ask them all on their posts what they make of the game still having no server browser. They mainly think it sucks, and that they feel sorry for the Dev's particularly with the lack of support from management.

Last night, couldnt MM to save my life. Ended up MM into two different end of rounds, and that was it.

Like you I will NOT be purchasing any further BF titles if they don't have a Server Browser and Persistent Servers at launch. 

 

BF games simply cannot function without them as can be clearly seen with how unpopular MM has been in BF2042.

 

For the good of this game and the BF franchise going forward I hope DICE realise that MM will never be acceptable and needs replacing asap.

@RayD_O1 I tried playing tonight. Only mode I could MM into was 24/7 Breakthrough on the new maps. Spawned into the last 30 seconds of a Game and then couldnt find enough players to MM a new game. Kept toming out. There were max of 7 of us waiting for 16players to kick the game off.

WHAT A JOKE!

What I dont get is that we are loyal fans, and actually trying to play the game, but we cant, they no we cant, and from what I can see they are doing nothing about it, and just burying their head in the sand trying to forget all about it.

I actually think they want the game to flatline so they dont have to do anymore.

Totally frustrating and I am sure your experience is being replicated hundreds if not thousands of times daily by all the other players who are also struggling to play due to  MM.

 

The game will never retain players while this is going on, players need to be playing not queuing in lobbies.

 

I would love DICE to surprise us all and do the right thing but I am not holding my breath.

@DeepSixxxx Good idea but it is all revenue based decisions at this point. What would it take to implement something like that and would they make money from it?

A server browser on the other hand is already in Portal and would be minimal work for maximum return on investment. It sounds simple and it is.

Maybe that's exactly the problem? They treat us like fans, who will always buy another title in the franchise, no matter what. They should finally realize, that- beside being fans, in the first row we are their customers?

Maybe we should change the wording and start calling ourselves in every communication addressed to them customers and not fans? In every management/lean/sales book, the customer focus is the absolute no. 1 prio and a must-condition to survive on the market. But somehow Dice/EA seem not to have read any of them.

@Adamonic The only way to play consistently without "Waiting for X Players" by Season 4 launch will be Portal server browsers.

I mostly played Portal, yet it really needs dedicated servers that don't shut down when people turn off their computers/consoles, and also don't give the portal server admin zero latency ping.

Dedicated servers for rent inside Portal on a pilot basis takes almost no effort...why not try Dice???

I'll second that, why not do a trial run on them? While you're at it bump them up to 60Hz tick rates too.
