Indeed i said as well that vision isent the only thing. It just contributes a lot just as camo in avoiding damage and also giving situational awarenes. Allowing you to do more damage then you would otherwise.
If you take either away they will still surplant rifles i bigger modes imo. If you take both away well i think usf will be gutted in bigger modes if rifles arent fixed.
Having a cost to their scoped rifles rifles or stealth would be best. And rifles squads need a way to reduce bleed in the late game. Major tech reducing reinforcement costs would be a good and or squads after major start with 1 bar plus reduced reinforce cost.
Agree. Take away both and you'll see use of USF drop in larger gamemodes. Maybe you'll see the odd person playing with calliope spam for the memes or pershing for the nostalgia. Airborne might stick around as off meta for the LMG paras, but USF will still get spanked without that rocket arty (or the discount path+scott rocket arty). Anybody wanting to be useful for their team is most likely going to be picking a more fun/effective faction for 4s.
