Is there more than 10 players online now?

They actually outright removed Objective mode from the server browser for NA and EU, and the only 6v6s available are min 10s in other regions. Can't say I'm a fan of forcing matchmaking until you allow server rentals, but those rentals better be available sooner rather than later.

There's 1200 in-game right now, which is reasonable considering UE updates can take a long time on slower computers. There's usually at least 1.5k-2k people on at any given time, and I've never had issues finding a populated server (except for min 10s).

Is she actually any good? That AR looks like it shoots slower than the fucking Blishlock.
Also did they refund any of the merc purchase cost when they lowered the price?

She seems pretty good. I'm not sure about her new gun so far, but she has dreiss and BR, too. The RL seems like it does about same damage to buildings as a full Nader volley, though probably more to EV.
Another thing they fucked up is the new UI: shit is way zoomed out even playing in 4:3 stretched and you can't check your missions in lobby any more.
Good feature, definitely my preferred way to find a match instead of taking 10 seconds in a server browser. Player levels are also hidden in CMM, which I guess makes sense.
Most people are probably going to abandon objective missions until server rentals are up.

I hate matchmaking because people quit too much and anyone good likes servers
Javelin is pretty OP because rocket launcher has a low CD and no audio warning
I miss execution
Dome is fine
UI is fine and faster now
Game seems to run better
Lol snipers get fucked
Server rentals will probably be GOAT

I really dislike how long it takes to get into a match. Not even just the queue time, but it takes like 30 seconds to start after finding the match, plays some weird 10 second intro for your team before it even starts loading the map, then warm up time, then the objective cutscene. And after all that, you have to go back into matchmaking again instead of just continuing with the same group.
I wouldn't really mind CMM since more features isn't a bad thing, but they removed features to support it. They should have unlocked 6v6 for 10+ finally, and kept objective mode until server rentals were out. It's better to transition and prepare people for this kind of change instead of just doing it outright.

But headshots are still the same.
3 minute queue times....
I loved this game back in the day, but this might be too much to return to!
