Stop comparing BF2042 specialist to COD . BF specs were not made to sell skins !

BF2042 specialist change something to the gameplay , they have passive and active skills traits that change the way they play and react to the battlefield and the way they serve the team and teamplay...

@AntEater1997 the limitation of the gadgets is more like in BF2 and there were seven classes 😉 so there you had to choose wisely also or switch on death 😉

related to BF2 you have here more choices with the Specialist system^^ you only need to adapt it and adjust your playstyle 😉

@CountSero Every single BF games had different BS arbitrary classes that made no sens . BF2 MC on consoles had the medic locked with a faction specific LMG and a Motar barrage call .. lol BFBC1 had no medic and no engineer but instead a Support class that was Mechanics and Medic at the same time with a LMG etc.. THe way BF as always being doing classes made no sens and the current system is the most inteligent they ever came with ..

Specialist are whithin a certain spectrums of usefullness . Falk and Angel are clearly support classes who help with survivability , Boris and Irish are clearly engineers style classes helping to defend and hold position . Mkay and sundance are clearly assault mobility to flank ennemy and caught them off guard recon is the same they are subclasses of recon style gameplay etc... they are all suitable for a battlefield experience

    @Stew360Yes, that is what I try to say that the Specialist system is the best what they have done.

    Its clearly the evolution of the old class system and it is needed for the huge Maps.

    And its freedom of choice related to weapon and one additional item.

    I think the old class system with locking weapon to a class would lead to unpopular picks (again)

    In my opinion the old class system clearly favours premade teams which could easily lead to dominating one side. (What you could clearly see in BF4, BF1 and BF V)

    But hey the “old class system” is fun, let’s get back to the good old times with the beloved “Teamplay” that never really happened.

    But now with Specialists Everyone “can” be even with their weapon and equipment of choice, that is what I like on BF2042.

    And today in my matches there where so many Teamplay, it was pure fun.

    See you on the Battlefield

    (Sorry when it was not so clear I’m not a native English speaker)

    @CountSero Indeed , peoples want to push the narative as if Dice only made specialist to make skins ... But if they really would have done that they would have gone the same routes as COD operator wich mean Purely cosmetics " HERO SKINS " so there would have been " HERO medic , engineers , support , recon " skins that had no effect on gameplay and only visuals ..

    The current Specialist system is way more like Rainbowsix .. And rainbowsix NEVER HAD specialist prior to the RAinbowsix Siege installement .. And you didnt had this hate campaign toward Ubisoft spewing conspiration theory about Specialist system ..

    And it make MORE sens in BF than it does in Rainbowsix to have such specialist .
