Infiltrator class suggestion?

So the idea is: a squad with only 1 soldier in it that can equip anything you want, backpack and second weapon slot available. Not exactly going for a lone fighters situation, just that just being able to sneak around without the flap of your squad members cheeks alerting the guards would be nice. Also, reduced ticket impact would probably be needed.

Cons:

  1. A few.
  2. Another squad that doesn’t always contribute directly to winning.

Pros:

  1. Gold order weapons now can equip a “whole” squad with one purchase.
  2. Can sneak around and flank much easier.

Paratroopers can do that already… Sort of. I don’t think this would work to be honest.

If they added it, it should just be limited to SMGS and carbines. It might work, but I doubt it.

I like the idea of Saboteurs/infiltrators. Sorta a call back to BF 2 Spec ops. Silenced weapons and explosives for back line play.

not sure how it would work here with small maps. But I could see a case for silenced weapons, and a new Satchel explosive for large detonations.

Maybe some UDTs…
or the Z special unit.

This may not be a good idea, at least I don’t want my teammates to use it.

This game isn’t really designed for that. The whole point of squads mode is that you have a SQUAD with you.

If you wish to play with just a single soldier, I suggest lone fighter mode.

  • Pick any squad (preferably engineer)
  • Flank
  • Do your stuff while your bots die
  • Here’s your infiltrator

Alternatively:

  • Fly a plane
  • Bail out
  • Infiltrator II ready

And suddenly, half your squad is playing Rambo and nobody is trying to get objectives.

It’s bad as it is so I say No, No, No.
