New patch is the death of the Support and Recon class.

I’ve been a Support / MMG ‘main’ since Battlefield 3.

I’ve about given up now in the franchise. DICE doesn’t care, like or want this playstyle in their games anymore.

  • Suppression Removed. No notice, no discussion - just axed it. You can lay down withering fire on enemies and they just laugh and ‘ping’ - one shot dead. It’s stupid.
  • Cannot Hipfire MMGs. Another Nerf from previous games. No notice, no discussion - just axed it
  • Bipods Broken. Yes, they’re supposed to be patched but right now it’s a tedious mess
  • Prone Animations broken. You slide forwards, sideways so often without even touching the controller it’s infuriating.
  • MMG range support nerfed. Removed all the long range scopes for MMGs. They have them for LMGs, but the MMGs didn’t get any. WHY??!?!?
  • Fortifications are a joke. Nice ideal addition, can take 30 seconds to set up defences… one frag grenade blows it sky high. Utter waste of time!
