Wallhack lady should have a visor heartbeat like Pulse of Rainbow Six Siege
Everything we saw today is on point for me@WienerBeardI know that very well.
But when Dice pushes specialists this hard, it will probably come with some 'penalties' when only playing portal, like assignments (even unlocks?) not being possible in portal, because you have to play certain specialists/game modes (like HZ).
They seem very focused on monetizing the game (outfits etc) and that will probably be the main focus for Dice, not caring for the old 'BF-community'.- @Trokey66 Well you are correct. One thing with flares, at least we can shoot them out the sky. I wonder how many do not know this still to this day.
And with all that stuff, I was never a fan to be honest.
OMG, I just realized we do have motion sensor balls with wall hacks...lol - @cso7777 Well anyone who thinks BF is competitive and wants to flash stats can chunk that in the trash to be honest. I mean we got bots, which eliminate any bragging rights for skill imo.
All valid points you made. Are we having assignments now with battlepass? - @cso7777 Yea true dat, guess I didn't think about that aspect like achievements and such. Still I have a feeling Portal is gonna be a lot of fun and looking forward to that more than anything.
Portal seems like a game changer to me and probably the best idea Dice has had in a long time. guess we'll see. - @WienerBeard Well, it would have been good for Dice to point that out. They didn't. So makes one curious as to why...
Wallhack should be removed. Change it to minimap spotting only like a personal uav but also relay that information to the squad like how NetBat worked in 2142.
Riot Shield shouldn't reflect bullets. Explosion and bullet resistance is already pretty powerful.
The big problem will be balancing specialists.
Apex legends is one long journey of balancing/adjusting skills of the legends and this could easily be the same for BF
We know that Dice has this one-size-fits-all approach and things that work in HZ will perhaps be very problematic in conquest.
This can also mean that the game is 'half-broken' a lot of the time, because some specialists will be OP, until their skills are adjusted. This will be an ongoing issue especially when Dice introduces more new specialists over time.
From history we know that Dice often are very slow to make adjustments to the game and this could end up be very annoying in BF2042. Now they not only has to balance weapons/vehicles but specialists also.

@cso7777 I just don't see DICE being able to balance every permutation of Specialist and gadget combination that the community can come up with when traditionally DICE couldn't balance individual weapons and vehicles in a vacuum reliably. Let us also not forget DICE's propensity to over-nerf when they do balance things.
