It appears Classes are gone for good
If what this article states is true, Battlefield as we knew it could be gone forever. https://www.earlygame.com/battlefield/battlefield-specialists-hero-shooter/

@CantGetRight Yeah that has been my experience to. Every game had like 5% of the players trying to play as a team, while the other 95% were camping out of harms way or just didn't give a * about teamwork.
If you didn't have a squad of people you knew, you were on your own
The teamwork that was there was mainly do to it beeing a semi XP farms. Like running a revive train in BF3/BF4. No one did that for the good of the team, they did it for the points.

Teamwork depends on those who play and not whether it is classes or specialists.
I have no problem accessing any weapons or gadgets.
I do not like specialists due to the hero theme with name, story and voices. I'm getting annoyed. Someone will probably say it's nothing, but I can not help it.
Make them anonymous with the ability to customize and I'm all in.
@SirBobdkThe back story malarkey doesn't bother me really but other than that, I agree.
If players don't want to build a 'Medic' loadout and play as a Medic, that is their problem, not the games fault.
I'll be honest and say I'm not totally sold on the specialist idea but they are not adversely affecting my enjoyment and wouldn't be upset if classes did return but I am not going to whinge and demand it.@Trokey66Yeah I was against the specialists when they announced them, and still was for the first 20 hours of playtime.
At this point I actually think their abilities/gadgets bring a level of variety to the gameplay that was never there before.
I just wish they would have made them look (and sound) less silly, to give the game a somewhat serious tone.- @BizzyVaping Specialists could've been done better if we we're able to customize our specialists completely. [Like BFV customization]. Make them look how we want them to look with respect to U.S and Russian factions.
I would usually play medic in BF games, but with being forced to play Angel or the old broad, I totally avoid the role. The characters are cringy and annoying to play.
- @Trokey66 The thing I struggle with is running out of ammo for everything. When I am not in a chopper hunting tanks and armor I am doing the same on the ground. There never seems to be places to replenish ammo no matter how clustered together everyone is. I want to just run the ammo box but then I can't carry a Recoiless M5 or C5 to fight vehicles. And when there is a ammo box close by it won't replenish more than 1 rocket it seems like. The most effective way to get what you need is the loadout box. I think there needs to be some sort of adjustment to how effective the ammo box is.
Such is life as lone wolf I guess. I definitely feel like if you got a couple buds to play with there is only a few really effective specialists to even consider running together. Random squadmates tend to be nothing more than mobile respawn points.
I like the flexibility of the specialists but some of the abilities go against what I think BF should allow. Especially when the game was built on good directional sound and using it effectively. I haven't considered anything OP or must have to your point as well.I have always been a lone wolf and been playing the game since BF3 and played all titles up to this one. And I always play as the sportsman using only LMGs. Now I am playing only as Angel coz I can call in vehicles (I love the Ranger it is funny), loadout crates and revive team mates, too and I only use the recoilless rocket. All these are cool in my book and I am happy with them. Like the voice line says. Hell yeah! Angel does it again mwahahah :D
