I see you out there on the fields. Hiding in some nook & cranny, waiting for your prey to cross your path.Specialist is hands-down, 100% my favorite infantry class to play. It's the toughest to master. Gets the least respect. Hardest to rank up. Most difficult to get a Top 5 in BlastBut the feeling of getting a Top 5 using only Specialist (none of those idiotic enforcer upgraded characters in Blast for me) - while the other 4 spots are filled with those idiotic enforcer upgraded characters is TREMENDOUS. You have to work your arse off to get that ranking, and it feels great.Sure, would be a lot easier with a freakin' JET PACK and ROCKET LAUNCHER - but we aren't those players.We want to work for our dinner, and there's no harder work than SpecialistAnd when you can Stinger pistol an enforcer into submission, all the better.So I see you Specialists out there on the field, and I acknowledge your hard work and expertiseKeep it up.

More that just specialists deserve respect, anyone who plays troopers full-time in blast, strike, or extraction deserve respect.

It got nurfed. Before it did more damage (especially to heroes/villains) and would stack more with each shot.You could really pester heroes in online mode (even kill them off if they weren't paying attention).Then the herolords started crying about it - so it got nerfed and is now useless.

I feel you brother. Specialist mains unite!

that would be me. I adamantly refuse to play an upgraded character in Blast.

Almost always come first in Blast when using the Specialist. Just use the Hardened Infiltration, you can literally stand in front of people and they don't notice you.That and the A280-CFE with burst mode and you're good to go.Shame they ruined the stinger pistol!! Use'd to love hunting heroes - but alas no more...

I have to half disagree. A specialist with the A280 is no harder than playing an SE44C officer, given how borderline overpowered that weapon is.
A FRONTLINE specialist using the NT effectively...now that is worthy of respect. Problem is 9/10 of such specialists ive encountered turned out to be aimbotting cheats.

Disagree, you full with the se-44c, way less skill/danger involved than with the cfe were you cannot whiff a single burst because of the overheat. Same goes for the nt if you miss once mid/close range you are supposed to be dead you are not supposed the have time to shot three times before taking 150 damage.

Bf2 and BF2015 are the 2 games where I can hit sniper shots with a controller not battlefield not cod only battlefront when I play supremacy and get to 4k points instead of camping the menus like 85% of people in this games I equip a CFE and try to bully those annoying explosive shot heavy players. When I play the smaller modes I just stick to my se44c with survivalist,disruption and mostly the recharge command.

I am loving the specialist class. I mainly play Supremacy (or HvV). I usually go as Age of Rebellion because maps like Hoth and Scarif are amazing zones for sniping. I don't use sniper that much on pt though. When I get st they usually work pretty good on Jakku, Crait, and Kloss
