Remove the Armour Plate Gadget
The Armour Plate gadget makes the TTK too inconsistent, especially if you come up against a couple of enemies then your magazine is often left short to deal with both of them due to the extra bullets...

@EA_AticWay to listen to community feedback. We love it when you guys brush off valid criticism. Armor plates do not belong in Battlefield. People don’t want to be forced to use AP rounds and be locked out of 25% of their weapon customization just to counter armor plates. This isn’t another battle royale. Armor plates are annoying, give players unfair advantages, dumb down gunfights, and create frustrating TTK inconsistencies. They should be relegated to Hazard Zone only, where they aren’t a detriment to gameplay.
How did he dismiss it, because you don't like it? How do you know youre the majority? Many may like it? It really only allows 1 extra bullet of damage, and if you are hit in the head it doesn't protect. Maybe get more shots on target?
I can see it now, get rid of armor, people complaining "TTK is too short" and "get rid of AP rounds because they are useless" and "way to go DICE, take the one thing that only made sense".
It is not like this is new either, some form of this was in BF2, 2142, BC2, BF4, BFH, and even BF1. So it has been around before battle royale was even an idea.
I really don’t see an issue with armor in the game at all. Just put a counter to it where they have limited sprint/slower.
