Specialists Removal Option

I know there are a lot of people who are not huge Battlefield fans who are playing BF2042, and thats probably where youre making the most money. But I beg you as a fan since BC2, please make it an option to remove specialists in 2042 all out warfare. I would love to play as the AI characters with a bf3 or bf4 class system. Almost every content creator that has lifted your games from bc1 has the same conclusions about specialists. They are not good for Battlefield. Im not saying get rid of them, Im simply asking to make it a server option to disallow them in the 2042 experience, not just portal. This would also create a control group for you to see how many servers play with and without specialists to see which is more popular. Thank you.

  • @PremiumSpark I don't think they care how we feel or think, the old school Battlefield formula was good, I think the way they separated specialist In battle V was the best way if doing it, but I think they are doing it this way to pretty much make you spend money on specialists
  • @PremiumSpa same i don't like how there is clones all over the place like why the Russians look Americans and speak like too what since is that
  • @PremiumSpark Enh, this is wrong. Specialists were the right direction, a hint of freedom from a stale as hell class system. I mean modern day combat doesn't dictate some people can or can't use a tool so why should there be restrictions here?

    These content creator people are goobers who just want to make a buck. They have no clue.

    But the specialists are free, including the unlockable ones from the 4 seasons where you still get them for free after earning enough XP. Specialists were created as the game was trying to be all things to all people. Specialists for the Apex crowd. Hazard Zone for the Tarkov crowd. Portal for the BF crowd. I’m sure they had plans for a Fortnight type of map too, which would explain the giant maps that aren’t useful in current play modes. Skins for them was a potential cash cow as they’d hoped it would be in V. As we all see now, it’s been a miserable failure. We wanted a battlefield game. This odd mixture of different games just didn’t work, it’s not what we wanted. They’re not going to change that now after 1.5 years, this is what we have. All we can hope is that they hear us now, and make the next one that we want, including a server browser. Emphasis on the server browser. 4 is a great example of what a Battlefield game is IMO.
