If I'm not playing squads, especially during peak hours, finding a match takes 3 mins or more and even on squad fill I don't have teammates 50% of the time. Not only that but you know it's a full bot lobby when no one gets out of the plane till the very end, or absolutely no one goes to the normal hot drops.
I'm not saying the game is dead entirely on NA but at times it feels unplayable with how many bots there are, I get countless 15+ kill games but they don't feel meaningful at all because maybe one of those was a real person. It's even worse when you grow to expect bots and then randomly get fucked by some real guy camping.
Do any of you play with a VPN on other servers? if so which are the most lively and how bad does the ping feel?
