Is Battlefield 6 multiplayer/Redsec pretty much dead?

I hadn't played in a few months and sat down to play Gauntlet last night. After 15 minutes of matchmaking the lobby never got more than half full and I gave up trying. Went to play one of the breakthrough modes and after 5 minutes of trying to fill the lobby it got filled with bots.

I ended up playing Warzone and after one match I remembered why I quit playing it.

Yes

I think battle royales in general are dying

There’s a serious issue in the gaming world with devs not understanding what fans want and don’t actually play games

BF6? No not at all, still hitting 70K daily on steam alone. That ranks #18. I'm sure a decent chunk on EA App.

Same, I hop in redsec every once in a while, but BR's have just run their course with me. I still play multiplayer a ton and I'm not having issues population wise as far as that is concerned. The new map they dropped has been really fun. Lot of Operation locker vibes to it. I think it was a 2042 map if not mistaken?

I play PS5 only and have no problem, it depends on when. Past 5pm most nights I can play quads or regular modes pretty easily.

I'll say as of now, I think their anti-cheat has done a really solid job. I am on PC but play with controller. It is rare I have been in a MP game and thought someone was able to just outclass me with their gaming chair and/or was actually cheating.

I dislike pc cheaters, definitely one of the reasons, also there' just a lot more try hards on PC. I like playing with casual people. Had a squad the other night with some dudes in their 30's, drinking heavily and having fun. We would have gotten insta-killed on a PC lobby.

Battle royale doesn’t have the same popularity it once did from 2017 to 2020

Kernel level anticheat ftw. Javelin has been great.
