now you have half the bots than before merge, so i find that merge was successful. also you cant ever get rid of bots cause of off peak hours on servers. you cant expect that servers in middle of night will be full of players.

and with the merge there was a change in a amount of bot.s yes,

Well looks like there’s a good amount of players here and they don’t seem to want to play public matches

rest of the games are full (or maybe 19 players). if you are playing on EU/RU servers this is off peak with early morning times. if you play US, this is also somewhat off peak cause EST is -5 hours (almost half the US population) and PST is -8 hours so you are basically playing at midnight in US.
btw when you are playing at normal times for both servers, you actually get full matches. also do you choose servers manually or do you have them all selected?

Well
I am in Australia, which puts me at, Time zone in Sydney NSW (GMT+11) well it 5.42 am, atm
Start noticing about 2-3pm my time, it starts to get a bit empty, had one at 12pm other day, but most on my afternoon/evenings
Servers i have selected EU/US, (wait i can select from a list of servers??, which servers in the US i can join?)
As i remember from WT no point having RU selected, as it like 450 ping,
Oh and i do keep records, of all/most games played, before and after matches, wouldn’t say a thing, otherwise.
i would manually select EU or US server depending on the time of day cause sometimes it makes more sense to select peak EU than off peak US servers or vice versa. if you leave it on auto you can end up in bot filled matches cause you are matched in a match on a off peak server.

yeah i really need to figure this prime time each server business, , i can play at any time or day or night, but still, trying to get on when its full, is a problem.
If i knew what hours to be on, i would adjust my life around to being playing at peak times
too bad there is no server info in replay info cause i could have gotten population depending on time of day. now you have to go by gut feeling what server has more population.

Definitely a lot of new players, ive come across a lot of players slowly disassembling rally points. Unless thats what bots do. Also kinda an axis main, ive only been playing br 2 on purpose, for all factions now that i think of it.

It’s so nice to be always defender where you can be Farmed infinitely if the enemy know what they’re doing.

Germany having had 5 x campaigns, would be issue i am thinking
I had only 2x German,
and now i don’t want to play them, anymore, because of the reasons,
what ever i was up to lvl wise in the 2x i did play,
i now can not keep going, i have to back fill 3x German campaigns of stuff, before i get back to lvl i was.
Also the stupid Maps being the way they are, tired to certain BR has def thrown a spanner in works, for the German side,
i will be thrown into a maps/campaigns i never even seen or played on these maps,
Not because of the reason, you guys are coming up with, been nerf etc, rubbish, its more like me,
who say this is BS, and iam not playing that, now add to that others think like me,
well now you just have people whom are used to playing in stacks with full German might, high lvl,
but high lvl take breaks, and hence trends and side swapping,
and hell why not think to yourself
i am sick of playing defense, as i only play one fracking side of the whole game,
try the other side, or something else instead of whining.
I use TS, But I can squad up any time. Can you PM me and tell me which maps you run?

Is it whining to state the truth?
I joined this game to plat Stalingrad exclusively…
Now all I play is Dominant Height and Hurtgen Forest while “Defending”.
I see Stalingrad once in 20 matches…
Game is not the same after the Merger
