I see this:

I think “oh good a decent match”
You join and there are 2 people on both teams.
This bug has been in the game for many years. Don’t bother clacking your keys telling me to bug report it.

usually you can tell if they’re “ghost” lobbies becuase they’d have good player counts but an absurdly low match time
Should’ve been a simple fix years ago. Just brighten the active players and grey out the rest. But Gaijin ignored bug reports for ages, as usual. And that’s why we got Aces of Thunder instead lol.
It’s been REALLY awful these past few days. I’ve also noticed some serious network issues - I never had so much random packetloss as recently on EU servers (I’m Hungarian). CIS tend to behave better.
My favorite so far for ghost lobbies was this:

It’s so clearly broken.
for how much was the greek air force guy on the sim leaderboard again
At least I can confirm this issue is exactly the same on Aces of Thunder. And in that game you can’t see which team people are on. And there is no way to chat, not even using text. There’s no kill feed either.
I just refunded that game. I was hoping it would at least take sim somewhere.
A bomber’s wet dream.
Yeah but for any pvp minded players its horrible
Thank you for your report. This is heinous.
