I have a server, but no one plays it!!
144hz, Votemap, TDM/Conquest all maps, Chicago based.
Search Mace if you're in the North America region, on PC of course.
I'm late, but the reason you get no people joining is various reasons:
1. TDM in Battlefield is unattractive.
2. All maps is unattractive.
3. Depending on where people live, Chicago may have a low connection/high ping for most people.
Servers that I see being really successful are usually:
1. All Conquest
2. Usually has a scope of maps (such as a specific DLC, or metro maps), or one singular map all day every day (which is actually what I look for. 24/7 Locker).
