Battlefield 6 Class concept
Hi! I want to share skeleton concept of what I would like to see as soldier class system in Battlefield 6. This is based on assuming that next game takes place in modern times. Assault: Assault rifl...

@ElliotLH Everyone could come up equipped with default bodyarmor which adds minor hitpoint boost for everyone when they spawn in. Once you have taken damage, your bodyarmor doesn't auto-regenerate back like health points would in core preset of previous Battlefield games. Bodyarmor could be resupplied back from these supply boxes or specific armor supply stations or Unit leader/Commander supply drops. It would basically be another layer of depth to how hitpoints are handled
@Teal_Pipo_Fredo Generally, I like the idea of reworking the class system and adding another class. However, I don´t agree with some of your specifice ideas like giving the medic anti vehicle equipment. With health/revive abilities the class is good enough already.
I don´t like the idea of body armour. Trying to balance this with the weapon damage just doesn´t work in my head. Increasing the TTK in a BR does make sence, but not in a standard Battlefield gamemode.

Hi! Reason why I felt giving each class anti-vehicle/anti-material gadget as a lethal equipment is that when playing as any of them, they wouldn't feel 'out of touch' with vehicle warfare which should be greater part of Battlefield experience in my opinion. If player counts and map sizes increases, I hope the game would support higher vehicle counts too. Some of the older Battlefield games used to have rather similar class philosophy.
Medic with their anti-tank mines and similar trap-like explosives would still take rather passive role in anti-vehicle combat in contrast to Engineer and Special Forces kits. Assault and Recon can support these two with grenade launchers and mortar strikes.
Sorry, I am not a person of logic but rather the principle. If bodyarmor is hard to balance then I understand why more logical person would think it doesn't have a place in meta. It's why I don't like to argue about specific values 😅
I agree, good concept. But...like the medic shouldn't be carrying squad weapons, that should be assault. As far as I know, I've never seen a medic carry heavy weapons. With the whole having to run to injured troops. Imagine the medic sliding in to save you just to get smacked in the face with a M-249. I was happy with the BF4 squad setup TBH.
- @LenoirSnake Medics in BFBC2 had LMGs, like the M60.
I really liked the concept of BF4 on the weapon topic. Having class specific weapons and a set of weapons for all classes really makes class balancing a little better.
