Fans are not happy.

Star Wars Battlefront will not feature a server browser.
Developer DICE confirmed the news via EA's community manager, Sledgehammer70, on the game's Subreddit page, stating that while a server browser will not be available it will use a "new skill-based matchmaking system" to match online players.
This moves away from server set-ups in games like Battlefield 4, where players can select from a variety of servers providing different maps, modes, player numbers, and the ability to find active games with their friends.
"I want to have specific, favourite servers with communities I know etc.," said one fan on the Subreddit page. "I want to have servers with one map only. Matchmaking won't offer me that."
We've reached out to EA for comment and will update just as soon as we know more.
EA announced yesterday that the Star Wars Battlefront beta for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, available in "early October."
