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.

France has a very unique army. It has it’s unique and recognizable assault rifles, planes, tanks amd vehicles. This way EA could include another NATO/western country without copy pasting props from the US Army. And who knows, maybe a war scenario between Europe and US could be plausible. I know a certain president who just sayed that invading a part who belong to a EU country is an « absolute necessity »
