Hey everyone,

 

We'd like to hear your feedback on several gameplay elements now that Update 3.2 is available for play.

 

Today we'll start with Classes.

 

• What do you like?
• What do you dislike?
• Anything you'd like to see changed?

Drop your comments below.

What do you like?

• Extra Assault Rifle mags are handy 
• Irish is even more useful now with fast revives + APS + ammo/heals
• Revives and repairs look to be up, which is a good thing

What do you dislike?

• Engineer Class still feels wonky beyond repairs 
  • Lis can't use any shoulder-fired but her own (just give her a shared cooldown)
  • Boris and Crawford (w/ Turrets) feel off with M5/FXAA/JAV

• Class Gadget restrictions are tough
  • A one-time use Med Pen should be changed to Med Pen with 30-sec cooldown timer or something like that. 
  • Spawn Beacon with a limit? Maybe change that to self-spawn limit, but if the whole point of the beacon is to have squad members spawn together, limiting this doesn't make sense.

Anything you'd like to see changed?

• I NEED MOAR LOADOUTS! Seriously though, I need at least two per class, one is killing me, and I waste too much time in the menu or at an Angel crate changing things out.
• Align some of the classes to better fit Specialists (since the assumption is you won't move them to other classes)
  • Give Paik the ability to spot those who spot her (in addition to only damaging her) to give her ability more of a Recon flavor
  • Add DMRs to Recon Weapons perk
  • Rao still feels like he is between classes
• As above, give Lis the ability to use other shoulder-fired weapons, but make them share a global cooldown.
• Need more squad management tools, commands, squad functions (create, join, leave, lock, kick), and scoring to support class structure.
