DICE Nerfed First Specialist in Battlefield 2042

After analyzing closed technical tests, DICE nerfed specialist Falck in Battlefield 2042 and clarifies the color symbolism of the hit indicator.

We don't yet know the launch date of Battlefield 2042 beta, but DICE makes the first changes to character balance after the recent closed technical test. The firts nerf went to support specialist Maria Falck. During the playtest, her S21 pistol was found to be causing problems, and it was decided to reduce its power. After the change, she will still heal, but will not bring allies back into combat.

In a subsequent post one of the game designers clarified the meaning of different colored hit markers visible on the attached screenshots, noting however, that they are still very much work in progress and are bound to change.

The designer also announced that players will be able to change the colors of the markers to their liking.

So far we've met five specialists and we're waiting for more. No launch date for Battlefield 2042 beta has been revealed so far.
