Support Bag needs balancing. It's one of the most OP things in the game

A quite vastly imbalanced part of the game, is the Support class' access to infinite healing and infinite ammo, but not the notion of the supply bag itself (even if it should be split into two individual bags, one for ammo and one for healing so it's a conscious choice what you bring like in BF4, but that's a topic for another day), but the imbalanced thing is the Support class' ability to have it be infinite for themselves, allowing them to be the most imbalanced class in the game by far.

My solution instead is as simple as this; Make the Support class not able to gain direct ammo or healing from their own bag (minus the mechanic for the mortar of more rapid shell feeding), forcing them to play more as a team instead of the lone-wolfing camping that has become a mainstay of the class in BF6.
That being said, it should still be possible to resupply yourself with the supply pouch as it currently functions, as it is limited and has to be restocked before it can be used again when you use up all the charges. This would promote more use of the supply pouch as well, and fundamentally balance the class at its core by eliminating its "one-man-army" flaw.

This would also promote more classes being used and using their respective Signature Weapons more frequently, rather than any weapon in the game being only played with Support to level up the weapon, due to the infinite ammo being the "go-to" for such, as well as after all unlocks and masteries are done for the weapon.

 

There are quite a lot of the things with the Class Signature Sets that need addressing, and there are definitely enough complaints about the Assault class' Gadget 1, but this would be a first step in addressing one of the most imbalanced things (if not THE most imbalanced thing overall) in the game.

  • NOTHING about this game is balanced.
    There is a reason the vast majority of the games you play are 600 ticket win/loss

    That's a strawman fallacy. You're providing nothing to the topic and just saying "because pizza exists burgers are not relevant" levels of irrelevant nonsense.

    You will never get improvements to the game if you always try to derail it by saying everything is flawed therefore there's no point in addressing the big issues.

    Quite simply, the support bag is insanely imbalanced and can easily be fixed by making it not able to resupply the user that placed it.. but you're going off of the "because other things are broken, we shouldn't fix this"-bs

  • This could lead to "Are the classes done correctly?" conversation. Should the medic have both med and ammo supplies or should it not be split like every previous version of the game? Medical class was reviving and healing and support was ammunition and LMG support. This is the proper fix.

    I think transport vehicle 50cal is mostly op. It needs damage nerf.

    People were saying that since the beta, that the bag should be split between two classes like it used to be. In the current state is is just imbalanced beyond reason.
