I must say I am totaly confused who is fighting who in BF 2042. Before we had a set of clones of one army fighting set of clones of the other army. Then we got BFV that introduced to much useless customization and we got a vareity of uniforms in different opposing armies.But far as I can see now in BF 2042 we have a set of 10 specialists who are No-pats fighting the same set of 10 No-pat specialists. And then once you play for Russians and once you play for the US with the same clones as your opposing force.So pro US Irish is shooting pro Russian Irish. Did I get it right?I must say I totaly confused I don't understand who am I shooting.

Don't shoot the players with blue or green dots over their heads.Shoot the people with no dots/red dots over their heads.

Yeah, I read EA lore about 2042. But at least you could have 2 sets of No-Pats for each side. So you would not fight yourself. Before one set of clones fought another set of clones, not the same set. I think it is lazy of Dice to make it like this.

@BicolorZuluI went over this before launch, make a carbon copy loadout wise of every specialist and make them look different to the specialists we have now, boom no more shooting clones, what we have is lazy.No need to balance them as they are identical loadout wise.

Agree, its confusing. But then again it mimics the world that we have now. Just look at this forum...

Yeah I have been reading the bad reactions to the new BF and I must say many things are for the worst in the game. For really strange reasons.

Confused about the warring factions

Read up on the Lore & Story of BF2042. there's an entire site from Dice explaining it all. and also ingame radio stations telling you stuff. you are one faction, Non patriated.

@EnigmaChucker Does it explain why Irish is fighting Irish?

@R1ckyDaMan19 Literally the same as the old games. All were clones too. does it matter? they can't make 128 specialists and lock each of them to a player, that would only make it less fun and * players off.

Shoot the people with no dots/red dots over their heads.

@Trokey66 What do you do to the friendlies with no dots over their heads which I personally confuse as enemies?

@NICK-ALTMAN You are in a surreal world, where you fight with multiple yous against multiple other yous over some objectives and you can't remember why.
Maybe you can start making sense of it when your fever goes below 40°C/104°F and the hallucinations stop.

@Trokey66 honestly at this point if they ain't spotted they are friendly, all enemies light up to me 😛
