All the Specialists are major characters, have backstories that detail how they got to where they are in 2042 etc. The Exodus gave a glimpse into Irish, but don't underestimate Boris, Rao, Sundance and the rest of the team.

on a side note, dont you think dice should at least communicate with us, why they dont communicate with us?

Marketing in general is one hell of a machine that balances communication, memes, engagement, information, and overall professionalism. It's all magic to me and I personally have very little insight into how any of it works or how best to balance it. It seems that the community are not happy, and if this is the case for the majority then I agree that something needs to be done to mitigate that issue.

This is a bit of a non-answer from my side, sorry about that! But as I say, I'm not a marketing guy so all I can suggest is to keep making your voice heard and try to be constructive (and add specifics) when giving feedback. Things move very slowly in big companies, which can seem like nothing is being done at times but don't let that discourage you. It may seem easy for me to say this, but making games of this scale is a very complex beast and I believe that impacts communication as well. It doesn't mean we can't do better in that regard, though.

Keep in mind that us developers are also fans of the series and have no say/control over what media is put out on the official channels. I’m confident the marketing team is working to put some more gameplay out there ASAP, however do keep in mind that this is a personal Twitter account and Frederik is talking about excitement at his job.

It’s tough for developers at any company to toe the line between being transparent, avoiding frustration for players, and not breaking NDA’s on social media. So try to take such tweets as simple anecdotes or “behind the scenes” if you will.

These tweets often get put under a microscope, and I understand why - the community would like to see more from the game. However, I was at the playtest yesterday also, and I can see exactly where he’s coming from. I’m nervous but excited, so I hope you guys like what’s been done and fingers crossed for some more info shortly 🙂

Exodus wasn't about Hazard Zone specifically. It does help set the scene for the World of 2042 and the conflicts within, as well as introduce you to some of the major characters at play.

I believe one of your previous ones was shared around our Slack 😊

And also, as long as I can make myself just look like a normal, battle-hardened SOLDIER (like in previous BF games) as opposed to some kind of futuristic action hero, then I'll also be happy.

Just those two things.

All of our Specialists have a military background and do look militaristic.

Was it Oz who issued Irish to get that suitcase from the flooded city?

And was it also Oz who then betrayed Irish? By attacking the exodus to retrieve the suitcase? Like Pac warned Irish about that?

So Irish and exodus was meant to be disposed after rhey got the suitcase?

The flooded city is London (UK is in a bit of a mess in 2042). 2:43 in the video you can see Irish returning to the Exodus with Tower Bridge in the background.

In the World of 2042, you've lost a chunk of Florida.

Maria Falck looks super cool so far. Tbh, I love all the Specialists we’ve seen. They all seem super badass and likeable.

My main gripe is the fact that both sides will have the same voice lines and cosmetics. Just seems lazy

My team has been writing a lot of the VO for the Specialists, seeing the work (casting, directing, editing etc) that is going into that I wouldn't say it's lazy. Multiple specialists, all with their own VO lines. All of them have their own cosmetics too.

Totally fine for you to not be 100% onboard with Specialists, I don't think we'd ever expect 100% of people to like something we do. But I don't think "lazy" is the right reason. The team is anything but lazy :)

Might be Casper or some yet unknown specialist.

This is Casper.
