@A_Cool_GorillaIt might be fun, but it doesn't fit the expectations of a battlefield title by what appears to be the majority of the player base. There is an expectation for this who play the sniper role, anti armor role, medic/ healer role, and the ammo giver role. Their weapons and the sounds they make also allow you to understand your opponents squad composition based on audio. This provides readability in the chaos of the fight. All of this feeds into gameplay.
Fair enough as far as your response to the BF3/4 question. We'll have to see where they take the next BF to have a chance to see if they take that route.
