Yes, it could do with some changes but nothing impossible and once I got used to the slightly different style I was doing a lot better even after just a few games.
One thing I do hope changes is the activation range of the med and ammo boxes as they seem tiny and it didn't seem to matter where I put them people just didn't use them. Also the med gun needs some kind of autoaim (this could well just be me being really gooseberry fool) as needing pinpoint accuracy just to heal people especially when they seem to feel the need to move about like crazy people rather hard.
I'm sure both issues will be fixed or I'll just switch to using the throwable pouches instead so not a huge problem.
I hope they have a test island so I can practice flying as getting into a chopper with me as pilot was at best completely suicidal.
Yeah I agree having the specalists makes things very different, as you can't guarentee that the engineer has the AT or AA launcher anymore as litterally anyone can have one.
I also think that there is a new generation of plkkayer that doesn't understand battlefield games as,
no one in the Beta was reviving others.
That mechanism's even in warzone though.
My main problem with it is that I just found it dull, with no reason to return.
True, but in warzone there is a direct incentive to revive (only your squad mates) as then your get further along in the round to potential victory.
In BF2042, no one was reviving at all - which just makes your team lose quicker as it stops momentum and bleads tickets.
I agree though, the beta was quite dull and the only enjoyment I got out of it was through making my own fun. In contrast, playing BF4 again with a full squad has been the best fun I have had in a Multiplayer game in quite some time.
I feel a lot of that is down to understanding the roles of the squad in an easy way. (no specialists only - destinct classes)
or maybe it was becuase there were more optons as we had everything unlocked in BF4... I dunno
but yeah BF2042 was missing something.
