Flashless at the Golden Globes
Bungie gets a lot of flack here for their boneheaded moves, but DICE has been on a roll as well with BF1. First they 'fixed' the insane grenade spam in the game by literally resupplying everyone grenades every 30 seconds (yes, this actually happened) and now after 9 months of bitching and moaning by the community who couldnt find any 40 player operations using matchmaking, they finally added Operations to the server browser....
But in the process, they removed 40 player operations altogether and now everyone is forced to play the clusterfuck 64 player maps where you get sniped, blown to bits by random grenades, planes and tanks. The funny thing is that 64 player operations were never hard to find, the problem was always with 40 player ops putting you in empty lobbies.
I dont understand how devs can be so out of touch with reality. Do they not play their own game? Even Jackfrags in his latest video pointed out how 40 player ops play so much better than the 64 player ops. I am flabbergasted. I want my money back because the only mode i played and enjoyed is now gone. i waited 10 months for a server browser for this mode and now its fucking useless. Unbelievable.
Any BF1 players here?

Edit: DICE's official reasoning:
Based on continuous feedback from our community and an ongoing effort to ensure successful matchmaking for Operations servers we have disabled the 40-player option. We've determined that by allowing servers to only support 64-player Operations, match joining times are kept at a minimum and the probability of joining an active populated server is drastically increased. Our goal is to unite our players under this fan-favorite mode and consistently provide more instances of matches quicker. As with every improvement, we will continue to monitor experiences and take your feedback into consideration. See you on the Battlefield!
