    I think there is a confusion between 2 bugs here:
    • Not getting deathmatchs (which is the one most people get on PC, both NA/EU)
    • Getting stuck in the waiting room, which seems to be what the OP gets. The "waiting on players" bug has been added here.

    Sometimes, you can be stuck in a battleground waiting room.

    The match will show up as "waiting for players", and will not actively seek to fill the empty slots, only replace existing ones:

    Waiting room POV:

    Initial matchup as I entered, and after about 5mn (after more time, some people will leave and get replaced, but the empty slots never get filled):

    EDIT: This one seem to happen regardless of match mode, as I had this issue both with Domination and Deathmatch.
    This seems to be strictly an issue with the way teams are formed as leaving players properly get replaced.
