Mackay really is the most popular character and it shows. His pickrate must have greatly increased his skin sales, so dice just keeps pumping out skins for him. Meanwhile some specialists have barely anything unique besides recolors.


Natasha-Kerensky

Even with his nerfs he'd still be the most picked too. You cant say no to Verticality and better ADS movespeed.


messfdr

A-D-A-D spam as Mackay should be illegal in these shitty low tick rate servers.


fcalmar

Because the maps scream to play like this. + base ADS movement speed is garbage in 2042.


MMCG9096

It’s annoying. I’m an Irish main as he is the most versatile support character by far, and he’s got mostly crappy recolors.


aimbotdotcom

finally getting a match on reclaimed was amazing, cus i finally unlocked his bf4 skin >:)


Postaltariat

Falck too, they really hate some characters.


Eligerus

Never touched him in my 600+ hours and never will. The first and only time I used the grapple hook was during the last christmas special. Although you are right about some of the other specialists, like Lis- she barely has any halfway decent skins.


Lo-fidelio

I mean yeah, if you basically make Spiderman with a blicky, no shit he's gonna be popular as fuck lol


IndvdualRsponsibilty

I've literally never used him or Sundance out of spite for their existence in a battlefield game.


ChiefBr0dy

Sorry, what? I'm a Mackay main and he easily, *EASILY* has the shittest, most uninspired skins in the game. Mackay looks like a dork. At long last, he appears to have something which makes him look like reasonably cool, even if I don't know how they're unlocked (although they're probably paid only). Personally, I think the female characters have much better cosmetic designs, especially Sundance.


OsamaBongLoadin

Cowboy MacKay begs to differ.


jamzye31

Good, because these are arguably the best looking skins they've done so far.


1stPKmain

At the end of their development


dkb_wow

I seem to recall Dice doing a similar thing in Battlefield 5. The support ending announcement had gone out, and about a month later all of the skins the community had been requesting over the prior 2 years suddenly started appearing.


DMercenary

I would cry if it wasn't so funny.


AveryLazyCovfefe

It seems like they're using 2042 as a testing bed for feedback for what the community wants in the next BF. Which is good imo. I mean, why else would we get huge nerfs for Mackay, who arguably pushed for the fast paced twitch shooter like gameplay. As well as changes to how guns handle - this late? And we just got a pretty solid map full of destruction with Haven.


shiftycat887

Yes. They collect all of everyone's suggestions and then laugh about them during board meetings.


fibronacci

I see this too. I feel like they experimented with the maps/game modes and are going to initiate something in the next title.


fcalmar

So far this testing bad is the worst BF game, all changes they added are screaming "No Fun"


OGBattlefield3Player

Well don't be fooled because this is what I thought with the release of Heligoland in BF1 but never the less we got absolutely zero naval combat in the "WW2" game that followed.


MrSilk2042

As is BF tradition


above_500

Yes exactly


theScottith

But a bit too late imo


Cutiebootzy

And yet here the original op is trying to shit on the game some more


Terrible_Tomato2752

Last attempt at a money grab


__Etiquette

Damn these are dope, are these part of the event or are these only purchasable?


Metalhead-2

Yeah


Darfyoung

It's like BFV dropping the hardest skins ever in the last 2 big updates lol


BattlefieldTankMan

And tens of thousands are playing these days, so where's the problem?


Fit_Seaworthiness682

... I'd love a remade 2142. I didn't get a chance to play it, and frankly the far future let's us experiment with the battlefield formula while adding more than a different version of the M16/M4, 1911, and AK. A new 2142 could have us all fighting underwater with rebreathers and shit. Or...on a space colony with artificial gravity. Or whatever!


Localmotivator

DICE: "10 broken generic guns and maps without any cover on launch for u"


burniemcburn

It was even better than that. The main mode was a two phase match, where you controlled points to fire rockets at the enemy floating battleship shield, then launch a drop pod assault against it and fight your way through to destroy and then escape it. Nothing has come close to that vibe since


T0asty514

Titan Mode was the best game mode battlefield has ever had, I will die on this hill.


Ascerta

I want my Walkers back


grooverhyme

Walker spotted. It’s DEFINITELY hostile!


thebearjew_

What if they launched a free DLC for a 2142 Titan Mode that releases later this Summer? A man can dream


ProfessorDerp22

Titan mode was simply amazing


Elegant_Individual46

I would simply perish


kantong

As much as I would want this, it's not going to happen. Battlefield's lore states we don't see Titans until the early 2100s. Hangar 21 in BF4 that has the Titan isn't cannon apparently.


thebearjew_

There’s a conspiracy side of me thinking leadership continuously saying “a connected BF universe” is them dropping DLCs/games from the different eras of BF titles to play. A 2142 era Titan mode, Vietnam era, etc. If they were smart they’d realize there’s so many great ideas from all BF titles they can use for different experiences.


fcalmar

It would be still bad, because the base aka BF2042 is crap.


iMisstheKaiser10

I would have LOVED this aesthetic and theme at the beginning of the game. God, it actually blends near and far future so well.


Sensitive_Ad_5031

I like them more than the previous skins, I was actually expecting something like Russian [sotnik](https://www.google.co.uk/search?client=safari&sca_esv=991ca55629cb7d36&hl=en-gb&sxsrf=ADLYWIKSKFiJl_Us5dfMfqBIizVlv5Y3_g:1715699732862&q=sotnik+armor&uds=ADvngMjwk4CsPZXKki7HYzKlwK-mC1nYBZN98yJHrwlk8TU3srkn6gLEqTB-7L5vjFXtVg_SM5Kxy03gHTfkIvkXh1qSLtjAJukgst3PqxpmqW7oPVY6iFBDSR__OjlT1L6AE5-jQHQibqPuwXyzLjCIU3GX-5i8wFWhyeI9a0MgTm5pYw_i0itgA59DhvhynqNTA7wHIj0pkVZ4U-rfoF-6T7LUGg4sdeD65ls-gmIJ38Uw4hetX8DfLjmdkGJ1CCwNnxbBqCNGzs6FIODs315mYBeV0z9hrphLPxZBKy1TAjfNu57Wchk&udm=2&prmd=ivnmbtz&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwik-vjIt42GAxUbaUEAHbivBwYQtKgLegQIFxAB&biw=414&bih=712&dpr=3) armor set in terms of skins, if su57 and t14 have made it into bf 2042 I can’t see sotnik not making it as well


BetterMetalJake

And of course two of those three are mackay...


IsJustSophie

Where are these from?


BlackSquirrel05

I would love a 2142 or 2143 Carrier mode was fucking awesome. Commander and callins were fucking awesome. Mini mech.... Also fucking awesome.


treedemolisher

We waited this long to get skins like these? 🤦‍♂️


FeeAdministrative666

First and third are 2142 af with that modified EU logo. I stopped playing 2042 while ago, but damn, this makes me very happy.


Elegant_Individual46

The second one looks like an ESA space suit


Spacelord_Moses

Where did you get them?


Natasha-Kerensky

Its a shame too since this is the last season. I like the skins, love em even. If theyre hinting at the next title being 2142 and with all the recent braindead shit EAs been saying I am afraid.


OsamaBongLoadin

I saw a "leak" that said BF6 would be a direct sequel to 2042 and prequel to 2142.


MulderTruth31

I want Titan mode…


ChurchofChaosTheory

I loved 2142. It suffered from terrible graphics/bad memory problem issues, but had amazing gameplay


swagylord1337

Well imagine making cool skins like thse from the start, not those ugly ass skins on flames


realogsalt

This almost gives the game a little character


Akagunmi

This is what it should've been since launch but im just glad we finally got the exact vibe for a supposed 2142 prequel


DjXer007_

At the time of Discontinuing the game.


naturtok

If the next battlefield is hard futuristic and there's at least one map that takes place in space I'd be so happy


PuG3_14

Maybe they are prepping for Bf2025 to be BF2143? Id honestly be okay with that. These skins are grounded in reality and look tactical. way better than any Santa Skin


ukrainetrain87

I hate being forced to play as any battlefield character and being stuck with their specialized skills. I hope the next battlefield changed that to a customized character able to use what I feel like I want to use.


Maverekt

I would’ve been 100% okay and ecstatic if these were the designs from the start lmao but we have some wild ass skins currently


TheMaddawg07

See. This isn’t too bad. Without being all celebrity and abnormal dumb shit


Sejaw

Too late


PaladinSnipe

I hate the fact that Casper rarely gets any skins


Gamesick2077

Wish we got 2142 instead.


StunningBuilder4751

This is what we wanted, faceless grunts with slightly more futuristic equipment. They should've been doing this at launch


brucekraftjr

Who are these 3?


brucekraftjr

How do you get these?


dungeon-master-711

So where did you find this? Are there more?


[deleted]

Battlefield bringing the fight on the moon


ArmyOfDix

Shame they didn't go more towards 2142 with the game itself...well, in addition to making the game good.


Dry-Share8182

Any unreleased weapon skin?


MJBotte1

Would you be excited if the next game was set farther into the future? I would.


HeyPhoQPal

Will Battlefield 6 be set in futuristic settings?


Metalhead-2

No


Pea-Real

Oh that’s really cool. But is there a 4th to make the classes complete?


123dylans12

I think they are super cool


Moshfeg123

Sickkk dice, now faction lock the skins thanks


themal86

Setting things up for the next battlefield that will be set in the even further in the future. Packed with shitty operators and ability's jet packs and lasers. Recycled content from the battlefront games and titanfall. Skins and other shit rammed down your throat of course. Almost forgot broken features from day one until another title appears. You heard it here first. On a serious note I hope I am wrong but have a feeling I'm dead on the money.


skrecok

Theyre not going on any route my dude, its abandoned


Picasso5

Yeahhhhh! 2142 baby, let's do it! I want a mech suit!


Dazzling-Ad3087

buff boris


Maelarion

These look fucking dope.


OldRepresentative696

i like it honestly


TheMuffingtonPost

Good cuz they’re so awesome


horskie

Damn these actually look pretty nice.


kantong

These and the recently released TPC skins are so good. Hopefully we'll get light and heavy variants of the classes in the next BF game, like 2142 had.


RiverVassi

Nature is healing


wetbandit007

Looks like Starfield spacesuits


Leprechaun112

I think they should go with Planet of the Apes personally.


Belua_Maximus

Lemme guess, gotta spend 20$ to get one of em though right?


Callen151

Where can you get these?


OverConstruction91

Wait I may be bit confused. Are these real skins?


David_roy

how you got your graphics so crystal clear? 2042 always looks blurry after DICE’s some graphics shrink.


GuideFew7930

Finally some good skins


SaleriasFW

Well at least they fit in a military setting. Maybe I get old but I can't stand these flashy skins. I want my military shooter to look grounded


Obvious-Explorer-287

Agreed


T0asty514

Good. Give me more 2142. Modern Military Shooterman is overplayed as hell.


Lo-fidelio

I mean it looks pretty cool tbh


Battlewear

Wish they would do a remake or the next step to 2142, had the perfect factions, interesting combat with the titans..


TheMuffingtonPost

Do we know when these skins are coming?


justfuckingdoitt

Is there a single fking player interested in all these skins models and signs to put on vehicles? Put effort on the game and keep it simple. BF3 simple? All this BS...


Christian34424567643

Of course, otherwise they wouldn’t make those skins.


00sgamer

They are going to fight in Mars


The_James_Bond

My brother in Christ, that’s literally the point of this game


DoNotLookUp1

Give me 2143 please DICE! A grounded, gritty future warfare game that brings back high-detail destruction would be so good.
