I watched the video and read some of the comments, one stuck out.
"This game is a love letter to the BF community”
Proceeds to add specialist system and literal x-ray vision"
Haha
@Popa2caps LOL I agree. 2042 seems more like a love letter to Apex and Warzone fans after playing the Beta.
People are putting too many hopes in Portal.
And this game is not meant for BF players. It is so evident.
Attachments on the fly, vehicles on the fly (Objectives had vehicles in previous game but no no, they will fly out of the sky now), Spiderman, Wall Hack, Terminator deflecting bullets, Wingsuit is cool gotta say but heat seeking grenades what the...I mean yeah.
This is targeted to players who love big map BR type games - Warzone, Apex, etc.
Portal was definitely an afterthought because they somehow realised how the Conquest would make players think.

@Noodlesocks that's exactly what my Portal server will be: 2042/BF3/BC2 maps with BF3 classes.

Would be cool if they allow the 64 player versions of 2042 maps for PC and current gen consoles so we could run a rotation of all the maps without certain maps turning into a 128 player mess.

I honestly don't understand this point of view. I play COD Warzone, Apex Legends and some PUBG from time to time.
So far Battlefield 2042 doesn't look fun at all in my eyes compared to those other titles. The only thing that intrigues me is the main weapons DICE haven't shown off. That's honestly all I care for in a first person shooter, weapons I get to use directly, Specialists look super boring.
I personally don't know people that currently play COD: Warzone that like the Specialists idea.- carsono3114 years agoSeasoned Ace@Popa2caps Well, that is fine for you of course.
I tend to agree that overall, EA DICE saw / thought of Specialists as their own way to make WarZone Operators work within a Battlefield context… and despite my attempted optimism, I am not truly convinced it will work.
