Most of the playerbase seems to be in NA, it really sucks playing on EU in the late hours cause most of your lobbies will literally be empty or only have 1 other squad. And it's like this with the current high playerbase right after a big update, i can't imagine how bad it is after 1 or 2 months. That's no way to play a game that's focused on PvP. Even with a VPN set to NA it doesn't to actually switch to any different game servers and the only way is to join the party of someone from NA. But if you want to play solo then ur just out of luck.
It also just feels like cheating being able to effortlessly complete all your quests and grab the best loot from every map with no contest. 0 risk with all the reward i can't imagine the devs intended the game to be played like this
