Random thoughts on BF6 and my squad/s

My friends and I have been playing Battlefield six for the last few days and we’ve noticed some things that we were wondering if anyone else was dealing with? There seems to be some odd choices and development compared to past battlefield games, including the trademark battlefield three and four that EA was very adamant about this game being a newer version of. I’ll less than below and I wondered if these things bothered you all as well. 

First, there seems to be almost no way to play with more than four people in one game. Poor game called Battlefield that simulates war. It seems that it is a squad base game at best with other random elements. Sure, you can join a game with your friends and leave the squad to form a new one, thus allow, allowing other people to join, but once a new round starts, it seems to throw the other squad onto the other team. Maybe this is to prevent from a lobby having too many people in one group to prevent a blowout or something, but it feels like Halo is an easier and better representation for mass gameplay for friends. Has anybody else found anyway to allow eight or so people to play together in one game?

Second, it seems like pistols in this game are almost pointless. Sure, they can help you finish somebody off but in past games like battlefield four you could shoot someone with several times with a 45 and put them down. Hell, you could use a pistol as a normal gun if you would like. I know that it is in relation to the other guns and their damage set but for balance, I feel like past battlefield games did this a lot better. Maybe we are missing something when it comes to how to use them or how much damage they do with attachments or something? 

Third, a lot of the gadgets seem almost useless. Things like the drone have potential but would be much better used if you could drop a mortar round off of it onto somebody if like they are doing in Ukraine or something of that nature. Maybe just that you could spot with it and it lasted until you’re death or something? Or fallow the trend that they were doing with weapons and say that anyone can use any of the gadgets, but certain classes use them better than others?

Fourth, grenade seemed to do almost nothing. I understand this is to prevent explosion, mania and grenades, killing the world like some other games, but in battlefield for grenades did a ton of damage and took longer to throw. It just seems weird to us that explosions do little to no damage to infantry, which is what they’re designed to do. 

Fifth, speaking of explosions the way the vehicles work in this game seems pretty wild. I get the logic four grenades not doing any damage to vehicles or anything, but as it stands, if you’re not an engineer, you’re almost worthless against any tank. Maybe just allowing C4 across the board so that if people want to be able to take out tanks they can? 

Sixth, the assault shot seems pointless.  Sure, you are faster but what else?

Seventh, why is conquest only 32 people?  There is almost no infantry in it to kill!?  It just feels like vehicle only mania

And finally, what is the point of the jeep? Who decided to make this vehicle with no doors or windows? I think if you took the jeep that is in this game and put it in a current modern battlefield that people would be disgusted and wouldn’t even get in the thing. It almost makes you easier to kill because you’re so stationary. I wonder if while developing the game that the jeep was too overpowered or something with doors and windows? If you look at a modern day Humvee you can see bulletproof windows and doors. You can even see a protection on the 50 Cal top to prevent from people being a shot while manning the gun. If grenades and grenade launchers could do damage to vehicle vehicles, they can also work as ways to kill these vehicles if they have actual protection so that they were balanced and usable. As is, they are just a way for people to move up field, and they jump out of them right away. Our squad is trying to make them work and they are near worthless. Again, are we missing something on this?
