Re: Specialist and freeclass system is Better than the OLD Class system VIDEO inside

@Stew360 just got to ask, did you play those BF's on pc or console?
In the good old days we rented a server and drove it as a clan server. Then we could easily fit 30 guys for practice. You can't be sad that 30 guys can't fit in a public server.
Persistent server could also let your gang slowly join a full public server.
I don't get your reasoning.
Seems like you haven't gotten the full experience in BF, people did more teamwork than in 2042. Ask any of us.
If players played bad one round, they had to change strategy (e.g. not camp) the next round, only possible with persistent server though.

    Agree, we had a community and clans. Played on the same rental servers with many of the same players. BF has over time become a game with anonymous players on anonymous servers.

    @Zoikon I’m glad you mentioned this I forgot to write it in my reply that I used to play with a group of 15 players on playstation after BF1 was released. We all used to get into the same server regardless of there being 15 players with the help of the platoon system and the server browser. Sure it would take atleast 5 mins for everyone to get into the game but we did play together on the same team for hours. We had like 3 different squads of 5 on the same team. And I have seen other platoons do the same thing on other battlefield’s too. So @Stew360 point about 20-30 people not able to join the same server is not valid.

    I have played " scrim " on private servers but these momments were scarse and rare and was complicated and time consuming to pull off ..

    While games like MAG or planetside wich had proper matchmaking/ Platoon forming system where in MAG we could fill a Lobby of 4 squads of 8 up to 32 players and start a matchmaking just like starting a regular matchmaking in any games like Halo BF or COD or whatever games that have matchmaking .. It made things easy hassle free and fun ..

    Planetside 2 has a faction system where no matter what your clanmates are in the same faction as you .. So we could be up to 48 players in a platoon with squads of 12 .. So there was no issues at all for us to play toghueter ..

    Our experience in BF games with players own servers have been as follow .. Being banned for being to good , Being banned or kick for taking the vehicles the admin or his friends wanted . Being switched from one side to the other for being good , Being auto balanced and our squad of 4 /5 were splitted .. And so on and on ..

    I already mentioned we did some Scrim in private servers against other clans but these match were laborious and time consuming just to set up the team , gets everyones in and ready ..

    In planetside 2 peoples can jump in and out at any momments

    In MAG peoples could join at least up to 32 players to start a matchmaking so it was more than enough and BF need something like this and fast
