Hey Dice/Ea what are you doing?

Hi just watched the latest Jackfrags update, looks like Dice/EA are doubling down on the specialist thing. Do yourselves a favour just read the chat under the vid  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oc...

    @-DisPaterOrcus-I did see it. Not sure how I feel about it because there is a lot I, and everyone else, don’t know about it.

    Battlefield V should never be used as point of reference, other than how to do almost everything wrong. It was the low point of this series and is not really valid for comparison.

    I agree that it is disappointing to hear anyone associated with EA DICE focusing on anything other than creating the best game possible, but it ultimately does not matter at this point.

    This game, just like every other before it, will be continuously tweaked and adjusted throughout its life. So the answer to the original topic / question is: EA DICE are doing what they have always done @ST1GUS

People are reluctant to change and with that said, Specialists were not going to go away especially this close to release.  Is it a new concept for BF players, absolutely, and I'm sure they will be adjusted at some point but people need to give them try first before passing judgement simply b/c it's something particular they did not want. Who knows, maybe they can easily shift the Specialists towards the old class system once they see how the Specialists/game does.

This is the perfect way to describe it 🙂

People just have to play the full game themselves instead of making potentially false judgements based on a old barebones beta and "what might happen in the full game".

I understand trying the game at launch, but here we are not talking about something innovative, specialists exist in many other games and people know very well how they work because in the end, from game to game, the basic system of operation is always the same, you create unique traits for each soldier and you create a chain of these within a match of 128 people, but do you understand what can create such a situation? the game balance that they will have to perform for each specialist and for future ones? this system cannot work in a game like battlefield, they shouldn't have strayed from a class system that in their games have always worked, this will only lead to disappointment in people's minds, because let's face it, this move was not made for the community, but to monetize a content that is already a premium product that you pay when you buy the game, they shouldn't have behaved in this way, they lacked communication and I felt highly mocked by their actions, the microtransactions at the premium content should be illegal by law, let's not talk about the icing on the cake about the famous love letter dedicated to old fans, and that knocks me down even more because here for old fans there is nothing except Portal, if they don't want to ruin that too.

    @-DisPaterOrcus- You are assuming they have not considered balancing specialists, but we do not really know what work they have or have not done.

    Further, what Battlefield game has not been continuously tweaked for balance?

      Have you seen the video with the specialists? I can understand certain specialties but a trait that allows you to see the enemies from behind the walls is absolutely illegal, regardless of whether you nerf the skill.

      They never finished the balances in their games because they were abandoned by the development team, especially with BF5 who should have received other content and not only, I hate this attitude of their in games.

      And do you want to know the latest news? With Freeman's latest statement regarding Sundance stating that she is a no-gender person, but I say, do we need to label every living thing? we are all * human beings, we don't need labels especially in video games, if they want to help these people do it in real life, these subjects have literally lost their minds, I shut myself out of any discussion, this is absolutely offensive.

    @-DisPaterOrcus- I have this sneaking suspicion that when the All Out War servers aren't full of actual people and get filled with AI bots then the players may slowly stop playing. Then the skins don't get sold and they pull the plug on supporting/adding content to Portal because the game won't make enough money to warrant support. Wait for it right?
