    Which multiplayer? Did you go to the public lobby browser, if so refresh the page and they should pop up.

    XBOX1 browser kinda dead. Maybe 15 lobbies but 10 usually private with like 2 people in them. Other 5 public barely have any people. Maybe two lobbies close to be full. But the host only stays to have their couple maps played then they leave and kill the lobby off. Its to little to late. Community pretty much a ghost town now. I went back to State of decay 2. Far Cry 5 pretty much has to go on sale to lure new players in.

    I agree a sale should help things! Have you considered getting a PS4 there is a much larger console base to play multiplayer with, although I don’t think that would help either since you seem to hate Far Cry. Maybe just walk away man why keep torturing yourself. Lol

    Quick edit: don’t take this seriously, I see your passion and understand your frustration, just have a MGD and breathe.

    I stopped buying Sony products after they killed off Socom Navy Seals. I already said in a few other threads FAR CRY 5 is my last rodeo for this franchise. Probably last UBISOFT game i'll ever buy again. UBISOFT killing off all their franchises pretty much.

    They stated on the forum there's some service degradation on the MP. Could explain the hard time finding multiplayer maps too.

    Is that a positive thing or a negative thing for people trying to play?

    The community is a bit to small now. First day I sat 30 minutes and nobody stopped in. Couple days later which was weekend tried again and no dice. I gave up. I hopped in a few public host lobbies. One they pick nuketown and I left. Other room and a few maps I never played and were okay. But game is dying fast. The server browser was a nice gesture but should of been here day 1. Not 4 months later.

    Also 6vs6 and only TDM and DM and no respawning vehicles. Its pretty much the final nail in the coffin. Figure those that bought the game for campaign only completed that the first or second week and moved on most likely. Either they don't know of the server browser or don't care now. Game needs a sale or its done before half a year rolls around.

    I am sorry to hear that, I have personally spent time and effort playing on PC and now people are thanking me for helping build the community.
    Truth is, OTHERS are following suit and hosting every day.

    They gave us the tools to fix it because they have to get their last DLC out. While I could be cynical about this, I decided to take some initiative and host lobbies with a curated map list.

    You can do the same.

    Friend people, curate a map list via the Arcade Website and host around the same time.

    You'll get people to play with, trust me.

    It is work, but if you wanna play, you'll be willing.
