Operator ideas for attack
so, I know r6 has lots of operators already, but I don't know how you guys feel, but I always felt like the attacking side was lackluster. I personally don't like many of the gadgets, except a handful of them.
what bothers me even more is how many attacking operators there are that focus on pinging or locating the defenders. we have, if I am not mistaken, 5 of such attackers thanks to the newest addition.
although, I must admit I am not a pro. I don't understand many things that others would, I am fully aware. also I am not the best if it comes to fine tuning things or having a sense of balancing. so go easy on me, these are just ideas I came up with and can easily be changed in any ways if you think the concepts aren't all that. also maybe someone came up with these ideas before. just made this for fun.
and I am here to ask for opinions, and what kind of operators you would like to see in the future.
I am sick of the pinging, and breaching attacker's.
I feel like the developmers are running out of ideas.
