Assault class useless
Am I the only one that thinks that the Assault class is absolutely useless and has no place in BF6? Why merge the ammo and med box into one and have one absolutely useless class. The "situations" wh...

FYI: Assault class captures objectives faster, they run faster, transition to ADS/change weapons faster, can carry 2 weapons (with split ammo of course) so you are never at a range disadvantage, they have frag launchers for demolition and AoE damage, stair/ramp gadget that can create totally new advantage points that your enemies are 100% not expecting and their assault rifles perk is pretty good compared to the others.
Now is the spawn beacon change good? Nope, it fits way more on recons, is their adrenaline syringe good? Nope, awful, the worst of all the classes by far; but saying the class is useless is a wild statement.
What you said is in theory good if not even great. In reality.... nah that class is useless. I understand that you have a different opinion and most likely different experiences playing this game. My experiences so far with playing as an Assault, playing against Assault and having Assault players in my team/ squad have been.. weeeelll quite **bleep**e I have to say. To the point that I felt writing about it here to simply talk about it and see what other people think about it and what were their experiences.
I mean, I main Recon, the actual worse class in the game, where your only incentive to play it is Snipers so you can actually hit your shots, since we don't have beacons anymore for stealth/backline fights, meaning the whole class is "locked" to a single weapon basically, I can safely say Assault is really good at what it is meant to do, that is push objectives and get kills.
Never being in a range disadvantage is REALLY strong, you can play assault rifle and rush an objective with a shotgun whenever you feel like it or have a DMR and have a really decent chance against a sniper. The ladder is WAY underrated, that thing is so strong, you can climb anything at anytime, just dropped it, climb and pick it back up.
By playing Assault just running forward and shooting people, you are already the best class at doing it by default. Yeah you can't do much about vehicles, but you shouldn't be able to anyways, else it would be too strong; yeah you can't resupply/heal yourself like previous titles, but again, that would be too strong for a class that already has many perks just by existing, you really underestimate how strong running, aiming and switching weapons faster than any other class is.
The thing about Assault is that it is by default the strongest, they have better chances on every single trade, except for really long range snipers. They are the strongest on "what matters" in FPSs, that is killing enemies, "oh but Battlefield is not just about kills, objectives are more important", well guess what, they capture objectives faster as well.
But yeah, Adrenaline Shot is rubbish and it feels awful to use.
I get you but thats not what ive experienced from Assaults in my game time of around 60 hrs now. I know that may not be much but its still something. And i truly dont understand the logic behind giving a class specialization to recon called "Spec ops" where you can be really sneaky and could manage to get behind enemy lines but then takes away the spawn beacon and give it to assualt. In my opinion these are weird decisions. Maybe id even say those are straight up horrible decisions they made there but lets see. Maybe they rework some things to make it make more sense or maybe it stays absolutely the same hahah.
