Not unless they bring back classes
Classes exist in Portal..... I expect them to make Specialist optional a few months after launch.
get rid of that god awful attachment system
That system is optional and I think a great idea for when you want to change something in the field on the fly.
The normal system exist in the menu if you wish to do it the classic way before deploying.
For the most part, I feel gamers tend to exaggerate a lot of this a bit too much lol.
When BF4 launched many asked for the following, larger maps, higher player count, bots and not locking maps behind DLC as it would split the community.
BF series over time changse those things.
BF 2042 was not only delayed to skip the launch of new systems to avoid the BF4 situation, largest maps in BF history, higher player count, return of bots, free maps as that will not be locked behind a paywall....
Portal is the cherry on top as the ability to play older maps AND older class set ups AND older rule sets is beyond anything we've asked for in the past.
I don't disagree with you on the class thing for the main MP, I even see how someone would not want to do ALL their attachments out in the field as shit I won't do that for 99% of the things I add on, but I also don't see those things as soooooooo massive its a no buy or deal breaker etc. We've had worse situations like season passes locking maps, rushed BF titles with little time to develop, no server options etc. I think maybe some are exaggerating this as most of what was asked for in the past, was delivered with BF 2042 in terms of options.
You are btw correct to wait if you feel just as I feel most of what you listed with the class thing will be patched, updated etc or most will just play Portal who don't want that as to my understanding you can have Specialist in Portal, so they likely have it where you can probably just limit those features in Portals mode on them to be like the other BFs anyway lol Who knows.
I still can't believe Battlefield 2042 is launching without a campaign. Insane.
I still can't believe anyone gives a shit about a campaign in a BF game. lol
I got half way thru Bad Company and just couldn't keep playing that crap, keep playing MP like I did in the other BFs and just continued that way. BFBC2, BF3, BF4, BF1, BFV.....I barely touched the SP, to the point of not even starting most of them, BF1 is the closest I got to even completing one lol Most who play BF are just not playing that trash mode and I'd rather see it gone and the money focused on the main mode 99% are using with MP.
So I'll play $70 no problem for a quality single player game, I'll pay that for a quality MP game..... no way am I buying a Single Player game, that has a forced MP for that price and vice versa. Its nice if its just added on and they are trying, but shit they've been trying for several generations now and it has always sucked...
Let BF return to form as MP only.
