Lookup is not displaying all data - 2016

Hello:

I wonder if nowadays the problem with the Lookup in Standard Page that not displaying all the values at once and It only displays recently viewed records was changed.

Is there any alternative for to get all the values?

Thank you

This has been the behavior for as long as I have been using the platform.  You could create a custom Visualforce page to load all the possible objects and do typeahead [1] to show them.  This would require some RemoteAction [2] methods and is not a "simple" thing to do.
