Why change the secondary wepons?
The sniper and rocket guys in BF2 both had a major weapon that was great, but couldn't really be used in normal combat, you don't want to waste rockets on infantry, and it's hard to hit enemy units at close ranges with the sniper, so I think that the rocket guy needs a grenade launcher type weapon because it has more ammo and is better suited for infantry, yet it can still be used against vehicles. I liked how if you unlocked the precision pistol, it was a great backup weapon for the sniper, but it should be a permanent weapon, because it has a faster rate of fire, but is still accurate like a sniper. So that is why those should be the secondary weapons

Why split the engineer class?
The engineer class was too powerful and versatile in my opinion, he was a vehicle specialist, a sabotuar, a mechanic, a medic, and close quarters unit, which is way too wide of a range, so there should be a mechanic class that fixes things, slices vehicles and pilots them, as well as the award where he can order an air drop of his faction's main tank, and there should be a close range unit that specializes in close range, stealth, and sabotage.

Why does the sniper get Remote Rockets?
The remote rockets are a long range weapon, they can be fired from clear across the map, and are the perfect tool for a camping sniper, because it gives him some anti-vehicle capability, and a rocket guy in the middle of combat can't just stop there in the middle of the battle to fire one without getting shot

Why does the leader class have health and ammo?
Again, not only because the health and ammo make the engineer too powerful, but why would you give the guy off slicing vehicles the medic capabilities? Giving the leader class the health and ammo makes much more sense because he's leading the units into battle and is right there with the majority of the units, plus he needs health more often

Why give the leader class an air strike?
The leader class in the BF series had one fatal flaw, vehicles, you'd be leading your squad to a command post, then all of the sudden a tank would roll up, and you'd be screwed, the only weapon the leader class has is grenades, so an air strike is just perfectly suited for this class

Why give the mechanic a vehicle drop?
Vehicles shouldn't just spwan in, they should be dropped in, like in Star wars 3 on Geonosis, where the LAATs dropped off AT-TEs, that way mechanics are more depended on

I also think that there should be less vehicles in general, just a few here and there between infantry, and because there are so few, I think the only classes able to drive vehicles should be the leader and mechanic classes, that way the other classes stick to what they are meant to do

Too unbalanced and with caps on certain guns you can carry with other guns, the customizable part kinda fades...

A customizable class would be awesome, sort of like the one in mw2. However, sometimes you find a weak weapon and other weapons that are really unbaleanced

Because weapons from Star Wars are usually fairly primitive ;)

What good would a silencer do in Battlefront?

Ya, considering that there would be a bright laser coming towards you the sound reduction wouldn't help much.

Some sort of special ops ish weapon that fires an invisible and silent laser sound cool-ish
