I don't see why they would shift their stance when comparing to BF4. Battefront didn't work like BF4 and isn't even the same franchise, and it had no server browser. Even though it doesn't have a server browser at the moment, that is only for the Beta. Also Battlefront wasn't as popular, not that battlefield 1 is released yet. But going on it has similar gameplay to BF4 and is a part of the same franchise I suspect it will be popular.
EDIT: i'm not saying anything about preorders, just don't think these are things to be to worried about.
