First of all, why did you make a survey when you don't listen anyways? Litterally EVERYONE wants the specialists in a different way, but you refuse to do anything because of money.Letting players choose any gadget is a huge mistake and yet again something everyone actually told you. Again, you don't give a f...Why would you have a specialist with wall hack? There is no reason NOT to pick that specialist and NO ONE is going to be a team player.The new UI is better, but still awful. Where is the classic scoreboard? Why is revive requests, pings and objective info a part of the killfeed and why is the killfeed not top right? Don't fix what aren't broken ffs.The whole "what we learned" is a useless pr stunt where you actually show that you didn't listen. All the critical parts that players is concerned about is forgotten and you have not listened to the players AT ALL.

Its just one bad idea after another with this sack of a game.. The more we find out about it, the worse it gets.. Specialists sucked before... now they suck even more.Ruined the Battlefield name... gone... sad..

Wall-hack "hero powers" is just.. not battlefield for me - but it is a feature a lot of new kids wants I bet. btw, love the name @OnkelSkinkehjelm , Go' weekend :-) @FawKa innovation addresses a problem or shortcoming in a new way, the Specialist system rips out one of the core pillars of the game to chase trends from Apex and Warzone and destroys what teamwork we experienced in previous Battlefield title by making everyone a lone wolf. That is not innovation. If DICE really wanted to experiment with a Hero shooter they could have 1. made a new IP 2. Kept Heroes to Hazard Zone or 3. Had a Classic Battlefield mode with Classes run side by side with the Hero mode which would have pleased the Apex crowd and the Battlefield crowd.

@OnkelSkinkehjelm I agree with you. I'm glad there are some sane voices in here. This has ruined the game for me. And I do not plan to buy it.

@OnkelSkinkehjelm Saying ‘ Litterally EVERYONE’ here is literally a false statement, as others have mentioned. I wish the forums on internet would have a humblifier add-on that added a ‘in my humble opinion’ at the start of every post. Oh well…

I guess I ment innovating Battlefield more than innovating something 100% new and unique.It's just from a business perspective I >understand< why it's being done. This is where the money is at. Dice has to find a way to keep selling stuff in game that doesn't divide the player base.I mean we are all kinda sure the monetization of this game will be done around the specialists right? Either by unlocking them quicker than those having to grind or something similar. Or has it been stated that it's only going to be cosmetic? @FawKa after BF5 with all of its "good ideas" I'm deathly afraid that excessive monetization and trend chasing will make this game fail too and jeopardize the franchise. IMO BF5 failed because it deviated from the traditional Battlefield formula too much and 2042 is doing that even more instead of correcting course. I hoped DICE tried to figure out why BF4 is still going strong after 8 years but instead of doing that they invoked the nostalgia from BF3/4 visually in the trailers and then gave us Specialists and ping spotting again.

Sorry, but what the hell are you doing DICE?

I really miss the Battlefield 4's gadget loadout style like defibrillator with health kit or c4 with ammo box. The new defibrillator is just so bad I like the old one which we just prep and revive. I miss good old BF4 days. In BF2042 the tank's gun traversing is very bad. Tank's gun take forever to aim. I want BF4 like gun traversing speed. The whole beta was about air attack vehicles, ground vehicles were just not that much involved in the game like the BF4. In BF4, ground attack vehicles and infantry were the most engaged forces but in 2042 it was about air attacks most of the time. I really hope Dice address all the issues.

Believe me or not but majority of people are liking BF 2042 and yes if they try to add same features as of BF 4 than people gonna say its just a revamp of BF 4, if they do different they say its more like COD so there are wide variety of players with different personal preference.

But yeah I agree on the specialist Ji-Soo's Wall Hack ability which I think its going to be fixed in near future to make enemies visible on mini-map only or the x-ray is going to last for merely some 2-3 seconds.

And as far I know its really hard to do a good job in this pandemic situation, still I hope they will fix everything and gonna add those critical features on upcoming updates.

I think the whole of BF 2042 is pretty awesome and kickass I had a lot of fun in the beta.
I think the specialists are pretty kickass too, along w their individual accents.
I might just end up picking Sundance , she's got ink going on and a throat tat, I am a heavily tattooed person myself w a throat tat and I didn't have any thought of playing that particular specialist at all, more tattoos Dice yes and thanks, if not I'll still be playing anyway...
I am pretty sure they listen to feedback...... , I do not understand the concept of an individual speaking on the behalf of others and / or assumptions.

We have no idea how people responded to the survey, or what 'everyone' wants or thinks.
Picking any gadget does seem a bad idea to me, as some gadgets just won't get picked if better alternatives are available. The repair tool will likely be the least picked gadget with vehicle healing being as prominent as it is.
The wallhack isn't great, at all.
The UI is getting better, but still a work in progress and I'm hopeful they will address it quite quickly.

@OnkelSkinkehjelm Why would they listen to you or anyone in fact that hasn't played the whole game. The game is 128 player on bigger maps than before. Do you really think you can set 4 classes that are going to suit the many different types of combat encounters you are going to have across the map ???
