The case FOR specialists
Embrace change! I know this is an unpopular opinion but please try to read this with an open mind. When has this franchise not been about change? Every iteration has had a new system or mechanic. B...

@BaronVonGoonAt least to me, the specialists fix a major class balance problem that was especially prevalent in BF1 and BFV with some classes being a lot better than others.
If this image had been created more recently, the Action man would be having FIVE Bazookas instead of three Panzerfausts.

@UP_Hawxxeye Going back to the BF3/4 classes would have fixed action man. Going back to BF2 classes also would have fixed action man. I argue getting rid of classes in favor of COD's create-a-class is creating far more problems that it addresses.
@ragnarok013It is the BF4 design specifically that is balanced and versatile with the classwide carbines, shotguns and DMRs + the recon C4. BF3 was less so.
But alas DICE wanted something new for the sake of something new and it still feels like an improvement from BF1/V

@UP_Hawxxeye I actually feel quite the opposite. I felt the DMRs being all class in BF4 reduced the role for the recon class and felt the SMGs being all class in BF3 was better so all classes had a CQC option which the recon class lacked in BF4. Carbines being all class was good in BF4 IMO.
- @ragnarok013 Agree bf3 had the best class balance of all the bf games I've played, as you say giving all classes access to close range weapons meant every class could be useful at any range, the whole class balance in general was spot on the rock paper scissors balance was perfect.
