Suppression for LMGs Feature

Can we get the suppression feature back for LMGs, similar to BF 3?

It was a nice feature to have to provide that while the squad is moving.

@Redrum331 Sorry pal, that’s been floated in the forums and soundly yelled down. It can be a great way of limiting the accuracy of an LMG while also forcing opponents to keep their heads down. Realistically that’s both a good and a bad thing, and the majority in the forums anyways, think it’s bad. I’m happy without it too but ultimately don’t really care either way. We figured out how to play with it before and could do again.

I miss read the topic, If I remember suppression correctly it was an annoyance and not beneficial in any way.

While suppression was a nice idea, but I believe it relied mostly on the graphical effect, to make aiming harder.
I do know that BF4 hat a setting in the menus to reduce the "Suppression effect" on your client. There still was a slightly noticeable effect that informs you, that you are suppressed by machine gun fire, but still not as disrupting to make sniping much harder.
So in my opinion, it would be a waste of time to re-implement it.

@X-Sunslayer-X Lol that was the point of suppressing was just to provide cover shooting in the general direction of the enemy
