Suppression is a joke.
I noticed some issues with the Suppression mechanic... in that it doesn't really do anything. I've noticed it can stop player health from regenerating but that's it. And there's the issue, a determined or particularly dumb player can just power through it to return fire which is kind of stupid since the whole point of Suppression is to ensure that an enemy can't return fire or move freely. With that removed, I'm starting to see why a lot of people in-game can't seem to take the Support class seriously anymore.
I remember this being done much better in BF4 where suppression would blur your view and affect your accuracy which made Support's a good counter to classes like Scout and even encouraged teamplay. Now it seems like the only way to counter a Scout is to rush them and hope for the best. Which is dumb and kinda just encouraging players to treat this game as just another CoD game with a different title.
