On further thought, these changes really further the need to branch out to 5 classes, instead of the 4 in game. The 5 classes should be:

1. Assault - Assault Stuff
2.Engineer - Vehicle Interactions/buildable
3. Medic - Heal/Revive
4. Support - Ammo/Defense/Fortify
5. Recon - Scout/Intel

The biggest issue with Support currently, is that it is 2 roles in one class, whereas all other roles just have 1. Right now, there are really only 2 Supports that either resupply or setup defenses in the game, which are Angel and soon to be Irish. Then there is Falck, which IS the only Medic in the game. Sadly this will probably never see the day of light in BF 2042, and hopefully the next title has a class split like this.

@Totenkrieger75 I think currently the support class can perform that function very well. I have Falck with an ammo box, Angel with a first aid kit and I'm always at the top of the table for the amount of points generated, for me it's not a problem.
