shouldn't there be a "support" class

I feel like there should be a support class because that's my play style sending out drones, healing, giving people ammo, repairing, letting others do the heavy lifting but supporting them. Also not so weak and reliant on others that the class is under powered and defenseless. I didn't see this in the gdc panel Bungie had. Thinking of a game where this is present makes me giddy, i'm excited for destiny and hope my voice is heard.

  • Either there will be sub-classes that will let you further specialize your combat role, or there will be other classes that feature abillities like what you're looking for. I don't like the idea of a healing class though, that falls into the trap of either healing being too ineffective ("My shields recharge, and if I'm out of shields, I'm going to die with a headshot anyways, so whats the point of keeping my health up?") or being too overeffective to the point where EVERY squad needs a Medic or else they lose. Making a support class that creates smokescreens or buffs movement speed or throws up a shield for temporary cover seems much better for gameplay.
