End of January was the last I heard.
Adding the classes might be the straw that broke the camel's back for me and if I am going to play the game once it is added. To me it is unnecessary and they are only doing it to try to bring the ones back playing that were crying about classes. But those people are long gone and it will hurt the game more. There are many who like the freedom of play like it is now. If I do play I will not be providing teamwork like I used to and will only play for myself just to despise the changes and to show the ones that wanted classes that it doesn't bring teamwork with it.

I don't know about the camel's back, maybe their toe. However, I still feel like this is a waste of time when there are more pressing performance issues that still need to be addressed. Fix the core problems before spending time on changes that may even introduce more problems.

Would not be the same people working, game designers vs engineers, would be the same conversations of storefront issues vs performance issues it's different people and roles.
As always I recommend waiting for an official announcement of any changes or updates before you set your expectations./Atic
While I may not agree with you in regard to having a restrictive class structure (as we have had a few spirited debates over) and I even argued in favor of ditching the specialists and for a return to the class system.
But that was WAY back when this game first launched (almost a year ago now) THAT would have been the time to try something like this.
I don't like the idea of trying to shoehorn a class system into this game at this point (as I said a full YEAR after release) either, especially since it isn't really a class structure while specialists and their "abilities" are still a thing.
As others have said I would have rather had them spend time addressing the lackluster performance of their servers, hit-reg, net-code etc. etc.
Or adding a server browser/persistent servers as well as squad management.
@Ironhead841I just don't think it will bring the players back like the devs think it will when trying to appease the ones that were wanting classes. It is just far too late, like you mentioned above, in the game life. The ones that are left playing the game enjoy the freedom like it is now and will just drive more players away. I hope I am wrong and I will be the first to admit it if so. To be honest, if they would have added a server browser instead of adding classes it would have far more people back to the game.
