@RaginSamI must say that 2042 is a bad BF-title. It has improved but it is still one of the worst BF-games ever made.
The amount of content is very low.
The specialist system has become a joke, people mostly play only a few of the specialists, because many of them have abilities that have been (rightfully) nerfed into the ground (turret, wall-hack etc) or their abilities are just not worth it compared to the best of the specialists.
The maps are still some of the worst ever put in BF-game and the remakes have not fixed the maps, only made them tolerable at best.
Gun-play has become too much 'meta'. A few ARs dominate, SMGs are only usable at distances that are not really used much in the game and most of the DMRs are "annoying" (except the BSM). More than half the guns are just not worth using.
128 players have given us the worst netcode since BF4, the game is almost unplayable at times.
I don't think the next game will be BF4-like. The hero/specialist-system is Dices way of monetizing the game and I don't think it will go away. Personally I hope they could somehow have some 'characters' without 'special abilities' and then put them into classes, but that will probably never happen.
I think that's an option Dice are looking at for the next title and the class rework is a forerunner to this way of creating classes.
It will allow the player more custom options and also allow Dice to sell more skins, a win win situation really.
I'd be a little surprised if the next title has one character per class.

@cso7777 @Tank2042Man If they did that, I think they should have started with the Bad Company characters. Bring those guys back and maybe remaster Bad Company so we can play the single player to get context. That wasn't on PC right?
