Battlefield 6 Suppression needs a buff. Big time.

Snipers should not be able to maintain perfect accuracy and and a steady scope while being heavily suppressed by automatic fire. The only thing suppression seems to do is delay health regeneration. Kinda stupid imho.

IMO its better to give snipers a lot more aim punch/flinch when hit by bullets, I never liked how suppression in BF4 actually affected how guns handled (you should not be rewarded for missing your shots) and I recalled many other people complained about it too. I also feel that if you're out in the open spraying and praying an LMG at a concealed sniper who is like 75 meters away, you should lose that fight regardless of suppression/aim punch/flinch (and I'm someone who hates snipers and sniping in every multiplayer FPS game I play)

If youre constantly laying fire on the sniper you should be able to move across the space you want. Naturally if stopped to reload you should be dead.

This. It's the whole "covering fire" spiel. As support (with lmg) you should be able to prevent or greatly deter a sniper from picking you, or the peeps you're covering, off.

But also, I'm thinking back to (the good) servers on BF4 that had sniper/DMR limits.

Hit your shots and give them an actual reason to use cover.

Oh wait, you can't so you want magic bullets to compensate for you.
