Season 1 leaning mechanic

Dear devs, please we want leaning mechanics back in the game... Please it needs to be included in season one.

This was a top-tier mechanic back in the previous battlefield games.

Yep. I want leaning and peeking back.

I'm so sorry to link to the Battlefield 2042 subreddit but this very topic was brought up yesterday

I wouldn't apologize for linking to the subreddit. Yes, it can be a bit negative... but so can this place, and quite regularly.

There are several movement mechanics that are missing form this game. Leaning is one of them.
We should probably make a thread dedicated to all the others legacy ones from past titles.

@Adamonic Pretty sure one exists/existed that linked to the thread around launch of 2042 from the subreddit. There were dozens (100+?) "legacy" features that were listed that were scrapped.

This sounds good. I was going to go through u/Jellyswim_'s list of missing features that has been shared many times. I imagine, however, it is incomplete.
It could be a trend to showcase features that were removed for no good reason. Leaning/peeking is one such example. Diving underwater is another, though perhaps that is justified by the absence of aquatic maps. Crouch running is gone. On-back shooting is gone. High wall vaulting is gone (though I suppose one could make the argument that this is good)
I'm sure there are others related to movement and there are several more not related to movement that have been deemed "legacy"

@Anobix That would be u/Jellyswim_ . I imagine that the list is incomplete and other things have been addressed

@rippedwire01 True, it needs to be updated for sure, but at least is a good starting point.

For the number of times people complain about a lack of "constructive criticism" that we have given, ignoring threads like that that explain what is missing and why it is/was important is beyond frustrating.

To give a gram of credit, Florian (DRUNKKZ3) did acknowledge that post a while ago
