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

@MrJimBF I also hope so .. Cringy one liners voice lines and ugly specialist with deadfish eyes like Mckay is terrible ... But Mckay archetype grapling hook etc.. is great etc.. Free loadout system is also great for teamplay for enjoyment etc..

But definitly the Corny looks , lines , persona etc.. is bad really bad .. I want the archetype " wing suit , grappling hook , shield , walls and trophee system , etc... Passive and active but i would like them not being tied to those corny personalities

  • @Stew360 Yes, it is really ruining the experience for me. I can deal with the specialist and all the new things they have to offer but please, make it realistic and give me the feeling of a real war.
  • @MrJimBF We can agree on this . But gameplay wise the specialist " Archetypes " are great and improove varieties of playstyle potential for team composition and are just better than traditional classes for so many reason .

    But their cringy nature and cosmetics design is way off beside few skins wich are cool especially boris and Dozer ones
  • @Stew360 Ye maybe, but the balance is really a problem with all the passives/gadgets etc. I think the original class system is easier to balance.
  • @MrJimBF Classes from BF to 9ther BF were never balanced and guns in previous BF were insanely imbalanced compare to 2042 i have mastery 40+ on all smg , ar , lmg and some shotty and scouts and at least 400 kills on others weapons And i can say beside the AC42 and the SVK most weapons are more balanced than any other BF entry

    As for specialist they are different and serve different purpose so hard to quantified their worth ..

    As for Past BF was BFBC1 support balanced ? Havin LMG medics , revive , repairkit and mortar strikes all at once ? etc..etc..etc.. Thats just 1 brutal exemple

    Whats make BF2042 easier to balance is having only 1 gadjet equipable at a time ..

    Of course if they are not carefull the introduction of out there specialist with OP abilities could become a issue but so is creating new vehicles and weapons .

    @Stew360 I have a question for you. Are you not bored of playing 2042 for 400 hours? There is a content drought in this game. Only 22 weapons and only 18 of them being primary. Only 7 maps which are all below average. Like seriously how are you not bored of playing it.

    @DanielRicciardo Hell no wich is a really good sign .. i was pissed off and anoyed by BF3 after 200+ hours ...

    I play 2042 conquest and hazardzone from time to time and few portal match here and there ..

    But core BF aka conquest with 5 maps out of 7 who are amasing its much better than BF3 2 maps rotation 24/7 Metro 64 player farming simulators where admin and friends pick up russian side to kdr farm at B ... Etc.. lol

    i played 1000+ hours of 2142 , BF2 BF2mc nearly 1000 hours of BFBC2 across consoles and PC 800 hours of BFBC1 and so on ..

    BF2042 has way more to offer is way better regardless of the non sens hate campaing for drama sake and to hate on EA ..

    BF2042 now with 128 players finally feel like a real combine arms game thst has only 1 rival and its planetside 2 . Period

    @DanielRicciardo For me it not the amount of weapon or maps is what is important it is the fun I have playing some epic battles.

    Also, I like the way you unlock weapons and attachment in this game it is more like BF2 where you also unlock weapons by levelling \ ranking up. Also if I have found my weapon I don’t switch anymore, then I can concentrate 100% on the gameplay.

    @DanielRicciardoOnly 22 weapons ? How many mastery do you have ? i have mastery 40 on all smg all Ar beside AC42 1 and a half LMG , 1 shotgun , and 3 specialist .. So dont say you played truely with all 22  weapons yet properly .. I am not even finish yet and i played a crap tons and i am a really good player ..
    Also to be fair portal weapons vehicles etc.. did not magically apear in the game ... So you count them out ?

    Also past BF for exemple 99% of the players only used the best 2 AR best 2 LMG best 2 Shotty etc..

    In 2042 all guns are good once you have all the attachements unlike previous BF

    ACE23 ar was the best AR in BF4 then the AEK and were the top pick other guns were there colecting dust being worthless


    At least this time they avoided that ... We have less total weapon but so much more customization long barel short barel plus system that let you make 2 to 3 weapons out of 1 on the fly  

    As for maps the playable areas in conquest 128 are more varied and there is 3x times more contents/ play area than BF4 at launch lets be honest here .. just B point in orbital is more playable space than half of BF4  Zavod map lol

    @Stew360 I have 850 kills with the SWS-10, 700 kills with DXR-1, 200 with NTW-50, around 400 with SCAR, 400 with AC42, 200 with MP9, 150 with Vector, 100 with glock, atleast 200 with Magnum 44, more than 200 with PKP and a around 100 with the MCS. I have played the game enough to understand that there is a lack of weapons and maps. And don’t talk about portal weapons that game is dead like the whole of 2042. Also there are some attachments with the wepons which do the same same thing. Like the  4 suppressors, 2 compensators and 2 muzzle brakes. Do I need to mention the grips too which literally do the same thing by providing stability when moving or stationary. The only thing that is even slightly original are the ammo types, long barrel, short barrels and even in that everyone just prefers the high power ammo because it does more damage. There is literally no originality in this game.
