@RaginSamnot really....
while the designation "assault,support and recon" are still in the game the general teamplay is at this point and time rather slimmed down.
in every BF game you could identify the class from almost any distance and get a general idea of what you are facing, now you can not. this is due to opening up weapon selection not the operators per say. in BFV for example i could identify from the class who has what with him. since gadets were tied to the class. in 2042 i almost never see anyone give out ammo, angel beign the exeption, i have seen McKays prone 500m away from objectives with the bolt actions or "hiding" in places onyl he can reach with his "wannabe spiderman" slingshot. in BFV (i played about 1800h) i have had games where i alone revived more then an entire 128-player lobby in 2042.
and if we do follow your logic why even have either. might as well just have the loadouts wth random characters attached like COD. i agree BF has not had teamplay as its core in many many iterations but 2042 has in my opinion almost made away with it. the most "fun" i have had so far was farming spawnareas with the hovercraft on breakaway. one way to fix the problem atm would be to limit some weapons. E.g have teh Assault specialists not have access to sniper rifles and DMRs, have the Recon not have access to SMGs, have the support not have access to Snipers and LMGs, have the defensive ones not have access to Bolt actions. gadgets are a bit more difficult because atm the onyl real choice for me at least is do i take the ammo box or the AA-launcher....
the real issue iswhy bother having the base definitions of assault, support etc. if a big portion of players are just going to play sniper rifles and roleplay Bob-Lee-Swagger

@X-Sunslayer-XSpecialist work pretty much like classes. They’re just more flexible.
Teamwork has absolutely zero to do with Specialist vs Classes debate. People are either going to work as a team or not. Specialist and Classes are just tools to be more effective.
omg you understood nothing. sorry to say.
in older titles there was a squad out of a Medic a Pioneer and maybe a Sniper. Because you needed Revive and Rockets.
With Specialists and the ability to equip everything. this has completly gone, because i can have a Rocket and a Med-Pack with me. i don't need a team or a squad or teamplay at all.
Look at sundance, you have 3 different (endless) grenades, so you don't need resupply, you have anti-tank, emp and grenades and you can equip a medipack or syringe. therefore you don't need a mate at all. you are a fkn ONE-MAN-ARMY with Wingsuite . its ridiculous, the teamplay has completely gone.
yes we can run as 4 to a flag but thats it. thats not the way teamplay should work.
