Congratulations on crying about Specialists.

[Strikepoint]

Thanks to everyone who cried about the specialists. You are getting your way. Now Support can no longer take out vehicles, McKay can no longer place insertion beacons in hard to reach places. Want a proximity sensor or SOFLAM, it can only be taken by someone who already has a spotting technique. Want a Ammo crate, hope you don't want to play Assault and there's a support class nearby to babysit you.Want to fly around with Sundance and take out Helicopter's with a recoiless, forget it. This reminds me of how everyone cried for a scoreboard only to realize their K/D ratio had little affect on their score in the round. Keep going until this game is just a cookie cutter replacement for BF4 instead of just going back and playing BF4.

Class Equipment (Always available)

Assault - Med Pen
Support - Defibrillator
Engineer - Repair Tool
Recon - Insertion Beacon

Class Gadgets (You can choose 1)

Assault - Smoke Grenade Launcher, C5 Explosives, IBA Armor Plate
Support - Ammo Crate, Smoke Grenade Launcher, Medical Crate, M18 Claymore
Engineer - Anti-Tank Mine, Recoilless M5, FXM-33 AA Missile, FGM-148 Javelin, EOD Bot
Recon - T-UGS, Prox Sensor, SOFLAM, C5 Explosives, Tracer Dart Gun

Throwables (You can choose 1)

Assault - Frag, Smoke, Incendiary
Support - Frag, Smoke, EMP, Incendiary
Engineer - Frag, Smoke, EMP, Incendiary
Recon - Frag, Smoke, EMP, Incendiary

These are now YOUR choices, deal with it.


P.S Guys I'm done responding to this thread so if you want to continue discussing this, that's fine. Me? I'm going to go play season 2. See you in the game Note Pads.

Great, this is much better than what we got now.

Honestly how it should have been from the start, I see nothing wrong with this.

[SooperBoomer]

I love the change but Support got kinda screwed. They have nothing for anti vehicle. AP rounds are a joke and AP GL is very limited weapon wise. I sorta expected the Recoilless to be a all rounder.

This is all stuff that I suggested in the first few weeks of playing the game. Specialists are fun and I like the idea. Some Battlefield fans have been suggesting the idea since BF2 forums. But the specialists still need some class restrictions so it fits Battlefield gameplay better. This is awesome! Lets just give it a chance.

You won't miss the freedom til it's gone. You think that this will force people to stay with their squads and work together, HA! That's the fundamental flaw of Battlefield, everyone does what they want regardless of what is going on. How often do we see it in every map? Manifest, Everyone fights over the hill. Hourglass, gotta capture the buildings at E. Orbital, fight over C. Discarded, B. the list goes on. Now you, playing a certain class, cant fully capture or defend a point by yourself unless you pick another class that you don't enjoy playing because a helicopter shows up. Good luck with that.

that's wicked thanks

[Strikepoint]

Battlefield moments cut in half. Enjoying the class you play because of the freedom, Gone.

I am reinstalling because of this news! But truth be told, 2042 made me into a COD Modern Warfare/Warzone fan. I can't wait for MW2. But maybe with these updates BF will be worth playing again.

Well....yes

Less is more.

What made Battlefield fun so far? Certanly not these specialists.

Every class had its strenghs/weaknesses.

Now?

Everybody can use the meta gun, with the meta specialist, with the meta gadgets and so on.
Wow, such freedom. With this change, 2042 took its first step to became an actual Battlefield game. Thats what it shoud have been since launch anyway...

[Phantom Limb]

Good, at least after these changes the game will have some sort of balance.

That's what teammates are for... You know, a team effort? Because you can't do what you want anymore?

This is way better compared to the current system. Like, I legit haven't even played any of the seasons ever since just simply unlocking everything by the time the seasons haven't even started at the time, and this change makes me want to go back to the game when season 3 drops. I have a feeling a lot of players that left are going to return with this update. Maybe not a lot, but I can totally see the player base becoming double or triple what it is right now because of just this change alone.

team-work moments are the best though

[JUICE]

Wait, people were crying about being able to choose whatever loadout they wanted? We didnt care since BF3 and there were not enough medics in some BF because they gave them the most BS weapon selection and now they want THAT back?

[kevinjs]

Please fix melee.

Where have you been since the last 10 months? This is one of the main reasons 2042 flopped as hard as it did, the removal of the trademark classes, to be replaced by these specialists
