Player Council
What precisely is the "Player Council" mentioned on the Technical Playtest page? Is it related to the Game Changers Program? More importantly, what does the selection process look like?
It’s probably in part a marketing effort.
As the game changers are given a chance to test BF2042 before release and give DICE their suggestions and ideas, the game changers are more likely to “feel ownership” / have a positive view on BF2042. This will translate into them producing Youtube material which has a positive angle on the game.
By the time of a BETA the games direction is set and only tweaks and balances are made. There could be near universal hate of the specialist idea or the on the fly 'plus' gun change system but the the devs have already decided on it and coded it so would be here to stay come what may. And from what i gather the 'game changers' arent really listened to anyway in the games development and are just used as PR.
