Rant about restrictions of weapons per class

[The LISC]

i come to rant about the weapons available per class having no apparent reason on how they are implemented, what do i mean by this? take a look at the weapons available to the classes,

1.- the "Assault" class you would think they would have access to almost all weapons in the game as they are the "assault" force but they are limited to rifles (and not even all of them), 1 marksman rifle and shotguns, where are the SMG's? why only 1 marksman rifle? why only the SKS? why not the SR-25 or the M14 (more on this one later)


2.- the "Medic" there is only 1 medic in the game and he has access to most if not all the SMG's and shotguns in the game but then only a limited section of rifles, and while the game tells you some are "assault" rifles and others are "battle" rifles, the medic has access to both, but only 5 (4 assault rifles and 1 battle rifle) again how are these selected? why the SCAR-H only as the battle rifle? why the K416 as an assault rifle? why not the M4A1? how are these decided?


3.- the "support" class, the only class that can use LMGs and also the only class has 3 "exclusive" weapons the M14 (marksman), AUG & G3 (rifles), their access to Rifles have more choices than the medic and also have both "assault & battle rifles" but they do not have access to all of them, again how are the weapons selected to be on the class? and why does it have 3 exclusive weapons only they can use?


4.-the "Recon" class the only class with access to the Sniper rifles, they also have access to all shotguns, 4 SMG's (again how do they select which ones?), 4 rifles all "assault" rifles at least this time they are consistent (but again how do they decide which one they can use and which one they cant use?), all Marksman rifles minus the M14 (why?)


This rant came about as i like to play recon & assault but i cant play with a couple of my favourite weapons (M14, MP5) on neither of them

I agree with you. Why does assault get an M4, but support the M416? They serve the same role in combat.

Or how is it some ARs are under the SMG tab.

i made this post back in the october beta, there was only 1 medic at that time, there was also M14, G3 and AUG as available weapons but now they dont exist (on warfare at least, havent touch operations)

edit: went back to triple check and found the G3 and AUG available to only the engineer (previously the support) so they remain exclusive weapons to that class only , the M14 is the only one that is gone

The M14 is still there, they just forgot to give it its own tab.

ya honestly this fact alone has made me less interested in the warfare mode. i feel so limited now and like im being forced to swap out classes constantly instead of swapping to fit my team
