Hi @II__SUSHI__II
In BF1 you were able to change that. The default settings were indeed that the spot button could be used both for spotting and selecting a capture point as a squad leader. The option was called: Context-Based Order Giving
BF4, I think it was also possible but then differently. You had to hold the spot button for capture point and just a short tap to spot someone. For BF5 they choose to do it the way it currently is, so only scouts can spot. In way logical to me, while I really miss spotting myself since I don't like to play a scout class. But when you are a support class for instance, and level up it gives you an option to have your squad mates see the enemy with your suppressed fire.
This I mean:
Machine Gunner Traits
Bullet Storm: You have increased suppression ability.
Focused Fire: Automatically spot enemies when you fully suppress them.
But who knows, if enough people want the option back they might add it in later.
