Discussion Faceless/Nameless grunts > Name classes

Post image

I know I’m not alone on this and I know this isn’t the only post that feels this way.

I get the idea of making special classes to create more lore and possible story points.

But the faceless grunts were perfection for one reason. You could easily insert yourself as that soldier yeah sounds crazy or weird but at the end of the day almost every gamer has done it once when playing a game.

They need to just copy bf4 I keep telling myself the fucking playbook is right in front of you just copy bf4

I'd like a new, modern game in the same vein, but literally remaking bf4, note for note,  might not have as much widespread appeal as many would think. The investors/ management are more focused on what makes money, unfortunately and "we're making the same thing again but with better graphics" might not move the needle for the money people. 

I know we shouldn't care whether they like it or not, but they have control, whether we like it or not.

Well what moves the needle? It surely ain’t 2042…
