Why so few weapons?
Some of you may rebut this with "Well if you had more guns, they would all feel the same". I never felt that way with previous releases. Only two LMGs is laughable and only further illustrates that...

@Terminator000001 Oh the irony. We have the least amount of guns at release out of any BF game, and probably the worst balance too. PP29 is more potent than M16A3 in BF3 or Ace-23 in BF4. Hell even Kriss vector from Hardline wasn't so stupidly broken when it came out.
Going further, you probably have very little knowledge of modern weapons or simply haven't played BF4. There are a ton weapons with unique characteristics out there. Famas\AEK with crazy rate of fire. Sar/AUG with slower rate of fire and low recoil for medium range. Scar H/bulldog with high damage, low ROF and higer recoil for people who want to master guns that require more skill. And same goes for every weapon category. Here we have absolutely no variety.
2 LMGs that functions almost identical.
2 sniper rifles with 1 being 100% better than the first one.
No fast sniper rifles for closer range engagements if people into that like SV98 or M40A5.
The list just keeps going.

@UP_LordPlumber agree with you. In BF3 EVERY WEAPON FELT UNIQUE. In BF4 some felt a bit similar but in reality they were all unique in some way of its own. In 2042 we don't have variety at all. We have 6 actual assault rifles and 3 are similar (sfar, ak24, rm68) and 2 are also similar (m5a3 and am40) so would people say that "all weapons are the same" cause 2042 does what bf4 did but with less weapons.

But I wish we had more of them
