Notice anything... The Medic role always has a presence but never a place for long. If it does exist as a playable class the slot of the class it replaces ends up being merged with another.

It's clear to me with the amount of juggling involved that it's a tricky and rather difficult task to balance the four classes. As there's too many jobs involving teamwork for just four classes to manage without one class being being more powerful than the others and being forced into doing two of those jobs.

Four classes is only holding you back now, five or six classes gives you more creative freedom.

Many of the suggestions I've made on this thread and others, I have also passed on and spoken about in other places on the web. They are for the most part, well received.

I'm here to help you as I did Ubisoft with R6 siege, we're all here to help you. 😊

Please guys, it's time...
