As mentioned above, there are four classes, each bringing something special to the team. The Assault class are combat medics, sporting assault rifles, grenade launchers, and various healing supplies; they’re the only class that can revive fallen teammates. Support lays down the heavy fire, from mid-range with LMGs and in close quarters with shotguns. These players can also lay down ammo resupplies for their comrades-in-arms, and explosives like C4 and Claymore Mines. Engineers are the counter to vehicles, sporting player-eating SMGs and carbines, as well as anti-armour weapons like rocket launchers and landmines.

Conversely, Engineers can also use the repair torch to fix damage done to friendly vehicles. Finally we have Recon, dealing in battlefield control and ranged combat. Don’t mistake this class for being mere snipers. Although they can reach out across the map with their sniper rifles (which can now be zeroed to various distances), they can also use mid-range semi-auto DMRs to pick off players. Their true skill, however, comes from their reconnaissance, as players can use various gadgets to reveal ...
... enemy locations on both the mini-map and your head-up display (HUD). By varying your squad to incorporate multiple classes, you’ll be able to dominate the battlefield. For example: having the Assault class heal a Support vanguard, while Recon spots out enemies and the Engineer repairs an escape vehicle, you can be much more effective and team oriented than those squads where everyone wanted to play with sniper rifles.

Flashy actions like killstreaks, destroying vehicles, and healing squadmates earn points for the player, which result in rank promotions as they hit certain point totals. However, these points don’t just go directly to your general level; they also go towards their various categories. For example, performing kills with sniper rifles will not only help progress your Recon class rank, but will also go into your sniper rifle rank to unlock new weapons – and into that individual rifle’s rank unlocking special attachments for that gun. It can be a bit confusing at first, but gamers will quickly get used to this system and will start tracking it with close attention.

Players have a massive array of personalization options before them, from weapon performance to general aesthetics. Each class’s starting weapon comes pre-customized with some helpful attachments, but every additional attachment needs to be unlocked first via the above-mentioned method of getting kills with it. Once unlocked, the spawn screen lets you slap the new part onto your weapon and use it in combat.Battlefield 4Weapons attachments include various holographic/dot-sights, scopes, lasers, flashlights, barrels, and suppressors – just to name a few! Most notable, however, are the canted iron sights, variable zoom scope, and magnifier. These three attachments allow players to switch between various sight methods and magnifications – instantly switching from closer to longer range combat, which can be a lifesaver.

These same customization features carry over to the various vehicles in the game, which include tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, stealth jets, attack helicopters, jeeps/buggies, mobile anti-aircraft, artillery, and even watercraft! Like the guns, most vehicles come with the most essential tools equipped, such as zoom optics for tanks/IFVs and flares for aircraft. By getting points in your craft, you’ll unlock more powerful accessories. Once you’re all set up, don’t forget to slap a camo pattern on your character, guns, and vehicles!
