From what it looks like, players around the world got bored of the World-War first-person-shooter games. Thus, they get back to modern combat.

And due to this, EA decided to increase the Battlefield 4 server capacity to make loading times faster.

Saying that due to the huge player increase, the Battlefield 4 server capacity has been increased. He also notes that they will make further adjustments if necessary. You can check out the official writing of EA’s community manager just below:
We were absolutely blown away by your excitement and reactions to the recent Battlefield 2042 reveal.
Since then, many of you have jumped back into Battlefield 4 to already get a taste of the return to all-out-warfare. We’ve been monitoring your experience and noticed increased queue times for US West, US East and Europe regions compared to other regions. Good news, we’ve increased server capacity for this region – you can expect less waiting, and more playing.
We’ll continue monitoring queue times and will make further adjustments as necessary.
Thank you for playing!
After this announcement, they came out with an update stating that they have added further server capacity both for US East and Europe regions.

Players will decide when the game fully releases. We only have to wait for it.
