It appears Classes are gone for good
If what this article states is true, Battlefield as we knew it could be gone forever.

It's already dead with the branding of previous game features as "legacy features" that warrant a discussion on whether to be put in the game
Well that pretty much seals it for me, I wont' be purchasing any additional Battlefield games going forward.
Real shame too, as I really enjoyed the old style game play. Already stopped playing 2042 and went back to BF4.
Well with CoD dude now leading the franchise, I have ZERO trust or faith in anything EA. 2042 may sell well but the player count is dropping fast and their next game - I will neither preorder nor support them. I wish a different developer would see the chance and make a good BF clone....
- @snakeeyes00 Classes were moved to the loadouts. Assault, Medic, Engineer, and Sniper/Recon are right there with even more room to customize them to our liking. After playing this game. I don't miss the old class system at all.
Removing the super power specialists would be the best fix. I miss the old class system also.
Ok I am putting on my optimistic hat here for everyone who wants a battlefield with traditional classes and a more grounded core experience.
They have just announced they will be creating a battlefield universe so that implies more than one type of battlefield game.
Given the overall reception to traditional classes and armies being removed I suspect EA will realise there is consumer demand within the battlefield playerbase for a more traditional core battlefield game type.
So given that they intend to expand the battlefield universe I can't see why they will not offer different game types and one of them will be a traditional battlefield experience.
So all is not lost, though I think you may have to wait because 2042 is not going to change its core design.
- @Skill4Reel Me too.
So far I haven't seen a convincing argument that one is better than the other, so I sometimes think it's pure gratuitous hatred of change. The only complaint I understand is about the engineers who should in my view have the repair tool as something fixed in the class, like the medics and defibrillators

I haven't seen anyone really justify how the game was ruined, how the specialist have destroyed team play, or have removed any of the features previously provided by classes.
- @snakeeyes00 If that's true then this is the last game I bought from ea
