I, for my part, don't care about hardcore mode.
Talking gadgets:
I think some are a bit lacking.
Medic really only has one good option aside from pouches/crates and that is the smoke grenade launcher.
What is really behind though is recon.
Changes to recon I'd like to see:
- Spawn Beacon is visible like a player in the spawn screen and not just as an option in the deployment menu, this would have more people actually spawn on one.
- Something like the sticky dynamite, but with a timed fuse (or just the sticky dynamite itself).
- Flares are good now, but the small amount of ammo makes some recon players hug ammo stations. So more ammo for flares please.
Add to that, that the assault class has way too much firepower in it's gadgets compared to all other classes.
PIAT + Frag grenade launcher + Anti-tank grenade = 7 huge explosives
If you take AP mines out of this equation, as they are just traps, that's more than all other classes combined.
Repair Tools should damage enemy Tonks.
Remove Frag Grenade Launcher from Assualt and gave it to Medic but not as a seperate gadget, as a selectable ammunition type within the existing Medic Launcher.
Good changes to the shotguns, finally.
The things that could receive some love is definitely the sniper class. They just mis somethings and with the assault as the next sniper class they do a way better job tp everything on the field. Something with 3x scopes.
Them big things that everyone except Assualts run away from!
Take away TNT from assault and give them a couple more rockets/piats.
DICE is already changing the level cap.
Exactly this!
You should also be able to repairtool the enemy, or let us beat up the enemy with the reinforcement hammer
Bring back syringe kills, smoke launcher kills

Quoted for truth. Maybe no need for more default assault rockets, given the ready availability of resupply in V, but maybe via a vehicle-killer specialty/discipline. And since assault = laser beam sniper weapons, then how about dynamite/shaped charge for recon?
Oh, and the "get x headshots in an obj area" recon weapon mastery assignments need to GTFO.
