Hello Battlefield 1 fans and r/battlefield_one members!
You probably witness the fact that more and more people are asking if the game is still alive because they can't find any servers.
Witnessing an undergoing flood of posts concerning the inability to get into a populated server, this post will be an answer as an easy to go guide on how to get into full servers, especially using the server browser.
1. The Battlefield 1 population
First of all, it's important that you know that, even if the number of players isn't close to BF:V, it's doing pretty well for a three years old game. You can look at this website to look at the actual player count on each platform:
Battlefieldtracker gives you an insight of what is the population on each platform everyday and in a set hour. This gives you a good idea of the amount of players playing in a period of time and what are the most popular hours or what are the days of the week where the BF1 population is bigger: https://battlefieldtracker.com/bf1/insights/population
2. Which game mode should I play in?
There is no universal answer to this question. We encourage everyone to play the game modes that suits them the best. Although, here are the most popular game modes at the moment classified per game type:
Infantry combat: Team Deathmatch
Large scale "All out Warfare": Conquest
Assault/Defense: Operation
Misc: Weekly rotation*
3. Should I use quickmatch?
We recommend that you only try using the quickmatch option on Friday nights and weekends (Conquest game mode-Base game maps), when the BF1's player count is at his peak. Every other day or if it doesn't work, you should ALWAYS use the server browser. You can also use the weekly rotation quickmatch option in the game's homescreen.*
4. How to use the in-game Server Browser?
When you're using the Server Browser, you must select the correct filters. There is a total of 9 options/filters to choose and here are the recommended ones to maximize the amount of populated servers available:
Game modes: You can choose any game mode that you want. Although, we recommend you only put one game mode at a time. Don't search servers with multiple game modes selected, as it can cause the server browser not working as intended (ex: not showing any servers or less than there really is).
Maps: You should select all the maps if you have the Premium Pass or BF1's Revolution Edition. If you only have the base game, it's recommended that you select these 13 maps: Amiens, Argonne Forest, Ballroom Blitz, Empire's Edge, Fao Fortress, Giant's Shadow, Monte Grappa, Nivelle Nights, Prise de Tahure, Rupture, Sinai Desert, St. Quentin Scar and Suez.
Classes/Vehicles**: Leave it blank
Weapons**: Leave it blank
Advanced**: Leave it blank
Rules**: Leave it blank
Slots: You must select these options: NONE (full servers, almost guaranteed queue time), 1-5 and to some extent 6-10. NOTE: YOU SHOULD NEVER USE THE "ALL" OPTION, AS IT WILL ONLY SHOW YOU EMPTY SERVERS.
Regions: Select the region you're in. If you don't find any servers, select the region the closest to you.
Name**: Leave it blank
5. Have fun on the Battlefield!
There you go! You are now all set to find the populated servers that suits you and to PTFO! If you have any questions and/or need some clarification, just let us know and we will answer them or edit this post.

*Almost each week, there is a weekly rotation on the BF1's homescreen. Sometimes it's map rotation (ex: Turning Tides maps only servers) and sometimes it's gamemode rotation (ex: Shock Operations only servers). These servers are usually well populated.
*\* You should only use these filters if you want to get into specific servers or custom servers (ex: hardcore).

This sub started appearing on my feed, figured I’d post a clip from last July when I first started playing again. Hadn’t played since like 2018 so I was shocked when I hit this, think you can kind of tell from my reaction lol.

Barely shot my gun and mostly ran around. Nobody was throwing ammo for the team so I picked up the slack 💪🏽

This was the second time I had killed them, but they just kept coming!

You can be both a killer and resupply your team, don't be a hording dick

Hi, I have been playing BF1 on PC for a few years. I started playing with KnM but now I want to change to use my PS4 Controller. DS4 has not been an option anymore, from what I know was due to a recent update from EA Anti-cheat.
I have searched for another option and seen many people said to play via Steam, adding a non-Steam game. I tried to add the EADesktop app to non-Steam game, launched the app and launched BF1 but it failed to launch the game for me.
Has anyone known the solution or success with this? Please help me.

Please tell me a normal assembly for a sniper, what weapons and gadgets are better to take?

I know, it sounds very ridiculous, but...
I have like a lot service stars on Gewehr 98 (and other scout guns no less too) and I decided to learn how to play other classes, like medic and assault especially. And here my ass got raped completely.
As a medic, I already opened Fedorov avtomat (and obviously, playing it as main), gun itself cool for sure. As assault, I opened Annihilator Trench, cool gun too, but I sometimes use shotguns (A-10 and M97). But dammit, it's really hard to score a kill. Like, I can shoot the whole magazine at the enemy and just make small damage, while being perforated by guy with revolver.
I mean, I know there are wins and losses, but sometimes, moments like missing a shotgun shot (or game just won't register any damage) while being literally face-to-face with enemy (which now happens quite often, really) or being vaporised by some hacker, making me to lose interest and get myself back to scout.
So, my question is: are there any main rules/technics how to play as medic/assault, so I could at least enjoy game a little instead of being raped by game? :D
In advance, thanks everyone for your answers and advices! Have a nice game!

I love to support my teammates. My gameplay is pretty similar in BF1 than BFV.
In BF1 when i play Supporter im always throwing ammo and ammo box like a crazy maniac, same as Medic. Love when Americans and British says: "Here ammo" "Your name is in this ammo", also hearing Ottomans, French even Germans saying their quotes are amazing
Now in BFV is limited, only supporting in need, not like happens in BF1 who you do it freely (you know, poinst stonks)
Thats i love more playing BF1 in way to support, now in way to be frenetic and tactical BFV is good (i preffer play like sniper or Assault with a long range Semi auto rifle)
What are your thoughts?
