BF3 CLASSES

The assault class is the most versatile of the four, effective in both offensive and defensive situations. When you're not shure what kit to choose, you can't go wrong with this one.

The assault rifles associated with this kit are excellent at any range, with great damage output and impressive rates of fire.

Each assault rifle can also be equipped with the M320 40mm grenate launcher, which is great for blasting infantry, light-skinned vehicles and even structures.

The Engineer class in Battlefield 3 is very similar to the class in Bad Company 2: its primary role is to engage tanks and armored vehicles with an array of rocket launchers such as the RPG-7 and the AT4, or use anti tank mines.

The primary weapon is a carbine rifle, with a variety of unlocks available, ranging from shotguns to sub machine guns.

The Recon class carries a sniper rifle for long range engagement, but for Battlefield 3, the Recon class has a more active role as well. The Recon also has the ability to call in artillery strikes (expected unlock). Furthermore, the Recon can equip C4 explosives to blow up enemy vehicles or map objectives.

The Support class returns to its role it had in Battlefield 2, with its main purpose to provide heavy fire from a Light Machine Gun (like an M249 SAW), and resupply teammates with ammunition. In Battlefield 3, the Support class is broadened with the ability top use lighter weapons and assault rifles like the M4, with several attachments, including a powerful flashlight which has the ability to blind enemies in dark places.
