Support Class Feedback
I had a great time playing the 1st week Beta and can’t wait for the next round.
I enjoy playing the Support Class the most, but feel that the LMG is the wrong weapon for this Class.
I hope I don’t upset any Engineers, but the Support and Engineer Class should swap weapons.
The primary role of the Support Class should be Reviving and Restocking your team, the “Medic” is on the front lines and needs to be quick and responsive, not in the rear providing cover fire.
I know there is NO LMG movement penalty, but the LMG still has drawbacks that do not make it suitable for the Support Class.
1. ADS TIME. The ADS speed is way too slow, and I would find myself losing engagements way too often because I could not get my weapon up fast enough in close quarters.
2. RELOAD TIME.
LMG's take too long to reload on the front lines when in the heat of battle.
Half the time I tried to Drag a teammate back to cover to revive them, I would end up reloading, I know you can stop the reload by switching to your secondary but even this action takes long and you end up dying while you are standing out in the open.
3. WEAPON CHOICE
The most popular weapons I saw on the field were Assault Rifles and the SMG’s. Moving the SMG to the Support Class would position more “Medics” on the front lines where they are needed most.
