@A_Cool_Gorilla The Hybrid System that you wanted is bad because if any players can equip any gadgets they wanted they can become a one man army and it will be an unbalanced uncontrolled chaotic mess, sure you can make a support hybrid system but think about it, a sniper player can equip both ammo bag and launcher can make himself/herself a one man army instead of relying into his/her teammates due to the system. The hybrid system that you wanted will just enforces more players to become a one man army and efforces more solo players to become selfish instead of relying his/her teammates. The class system was created was because it enforces teamplay among the players and to stick with their teammates instead of playing it like Call Of Duty, hell even BF4 while the game has a class based system you can still be a selfish agressive player or a agressive team play player if you wanted.
Lastly you said that Battlefield is a team oriented combined arms sandbox and what do you think that causes the team oriented gameplay aspect of it? It is because of the class system that efforces players to be with their squad than just playing it solo like you're playing Call of Duty Game sure you can play solo in most Battlefield games but sticking with your teammates and choosing the right class is what benefits your team alot unlike the hybrid system that you wanted since the system you wanted will just benefits the players to be more selfish and be a one man army instead of helping your team
