Give spawn beacon back to recon?

I think it was a good change. Snipers tend to use the spawn beacon incorrectly. They dont use it to move their team closer to the objectives. They used it to spawn in their perch over and over. So many times in previous bfs youll see your teams spawn beacon way out in the middle of no where. They used it for themselves not for the team.
Its good the assault class has it now. I run it. So my team can spawn on me and we go capture the point. Not off on the edge of the map where its useless for the team.

This was my thinking too. Some Recons do run non-sniper and push forward, make good use of TUGS, sensor ball and really help their squad and team push objectives. Most I see just get on a roof and never think about their squad, team or objectives.
The Spawn Beacon should be the Assaults class gadget to push forward, it would see a lot more use. Relegate that pathetic injector as a selectable gadget no one ever picks. A non-sniper Recon need some anti-spotting device or something, they are lacking a bit.
The Assault is having the worst identity/usefulness issue imo, I rarely see them in my squad - Engineers and Support 95% of the time.
