Creating a character
What about creating our own character in Battlefield 2042?

- @Fraytnoss Cool idea. But I doubt we'll ever see this.
- @PaperAssassin-PC Maybe if everyone replied to this post, Dice might see it
After having played Mass Effect Andromeda, I'm not convinced that Frostbite is capable of that degree of customisation.
Said the same thing on earlier specialists related threads. You take the fifa create a player and make a 2042 create a no pat. Conceptually as simple as that.
- @Fraytnoss would be interesting if they had an almost default character (say like the default guy you get in MW before you unlock any of the other characters) where you could equip any of the unique gadgets (of the operators that you have unlocked) and customize the appearance separately for each the US and Russia.
This could potentially be a good solution for all the players that prefer the 'unnamed solder' class system over the new specialist system, while still maintaining the new system in its entirety... - @Fraytnoss paste your own face pic on a Battlefield character for multiplayer. I dream this for years and perhaps change the gaming industry.
- @DiceUprise some might use this feature to add weird pics or nudity... so it's not the best idea
- @Fraytnoss God no, it's bad enough they've gone lazy for the "RS6/Cod" specialist clone. This is even worse.
@Fraytnoss I truly hope so. I am not usually all about avatar / player customization, but I actually think, with some clear constraints on it, this is the best idea to assuage the people complaining about multiple specialist clones running around on maps... if that is even going to be the case.
I made liberal use of the make your own emblem feature in BF4 and I would appreciate further means to customize your actual in-game avatar other than just weapon skins and camo patterns. Like, let me move and re-position the 3D rendered ammo packs, holsters, slings, helmets, headsets, eyewear, etc.
@FraytnossI thought this was exactly what they were doing originally. Before the reveal, I remember there was talk about the story elements of No-Pats and joining one of two sides.
Envisioned there being some kind of system, even something basic, that would have you choosing a look, maybe name (just for loadout purposes or something), and a country of origin. Maybe even include small country flags next to player names on the scoreboard and see the different representation on each side of the battlefield.
