This game is dominated by overpowered sniperrifles and selfhealing medics with mp`s. Instead of trying too make the game look better, mayby DICE should consentrate making the game more balanced

Snipers have to be overpowered at range as you have to consider they can only fire one shot at a time and most rifles only have 5 to 6 rounds.

Also everybody can self heal by pressing the hotkey.

You just dont have an unlimited supply of bandages when playing as other classes.

You really think Dice or Ea care about stuff such as that. Snipers and vehicle users rule this game. They dont even know how powerful a Javelin anti tank missle is in real life. But lets give the tank users more power and not be able to destroy them. Idiots. But what do you expect from people that never experienced warfare as a nation. That and no dedicated servers with Procon enabled. It’ no fun anymore. At least BF 4 has dedicated servers and admins. But once again, they dont know any better.

Tanks are dominant because 75% of most teams are Recon and do not have the necessary equipment to deal with them. Sniping has always been an obsession and way over used in the BF series by players. I just wish EA/DICE restricted the amount of recons in a team, or better yet a player has to earn the ability to be recon class in the first place. Although the biggest reason for excessive snipers is the assignment system in the game, ppl are sitting match after match trying to get their mastery assignment and are completely ignorant to team/objective play. That is one thing that makes my blood boil…

Fortunately, Private Games will have such limits on Snipers. Here’s hoping BF VI will make sniping hard as nails and/or make it a Class you earn to use.

And thats the problem with medics (unlimited supply of bandages). just hold your finger at the C button all the time, and you almost never die. And snipers need too press a button too activate steady aim

Mhill2029 Snipers currently have two anti-tank rifles, but even when snipers did have the SOFLAM to laser designate vehicles they rarely used them preferring to try to pad their KD via sniping so I don’t think this has anything to do with tank domination. Regarding private games we don’t know if we can limit snipers, classes, weapons, etc we just hope that we can.

Besides the fact nobody really ever uses them for that purpose, they tend to be used for despatching enemies in 1 shot whilst camping. Sniping is getting ridiculous, quite often i’m in a 32 player team and at least 50% of them are Recon. And when your attacking on breakthrough, it leaves you scratching your head. But i’ll blame stupid assignments for this increased use of Recon.

> Private Games is welcomed by many, but just like previous BF games it’ll be abused by sketchy admins kicking players that are too good that are beating their own clan or used to farm either XP or assignments. I can guarantee very little actual playing is gonna happen after the first few weeks of it’s implementation.

One Assault can take out a tank so not sure what the problem here is.  
Medics are great in the right hands but being able to self heal is only useful if you opponent has potato aim as every weapon kills rapidly in this game  
if you are constantly getting killed by snipers you are probably stood still too long as you need a headshot to osk and the reload time on Bolts is hmmmmm
