It feels a lot like BF2 back in the day but with a BF:BC2 and above style unlocking system. I'm surprised that was not the intention, and they want something more like Arma or Squad, when they clearly understand what used to make Battlefield so good since they replicated that and not ARMA or Squad.

Right?? Exactly my thought. When I started playing this I felt very much reminded of some of my fondest gaming memories.

There was a pivot from milsim to cod style gameplay after or around their first beta testing started. Apparently not enough people liked the milsim gameplay, so they switched to more arcade stuff instead. It was touted as a win for actually properly done user experience testing, and small development teams combining to allow for more agile direction adjustments. This where the 'remastered' title came in, despite being the first release they did.
