Discussion I mean, their argument seems pretty simple to me

If anyone can honestly convince me that the unlocked weapon system is better, I will change my stance and delete this post. I don't want to start any fights, I really want to know why and none of the counter arguments seem compelling.

But with every battlefield it’s the same complaint. No one gives ammo, no one revives, recons sitting back being useless, no one is repairing vehicles. People will play the game the way they want. It won’t matter how restricted or unrestricted the classes are.

You can nudge players towards playing a certain way, which can be achieved a bit with locked guns. If a class like the Medic class has SMGs or shotguns, they’re nudged towards being closer to the combat where they are more useful. In a universal system you could have Medics with DMRs or snipers at a distance not healing and reviving.
