I think that there won’t be any new abilities added unless an SDK is released and we are able to create mod’s. That being said:
I believe that the Op should have a more attack and retreat position on the field. Get in behind enemy lines with a disguise, and provide a nuisance of an attack. Perhaps a flashbang or 2nd caltrop type grenade attack would be useful to annoy and deter rather than being a killer.
Traps would be great. I would really like to setup laser mines or other traps that would slow down or provide, again, a nuisance of an attack. This would be perfect for the player that wants to help in the field but as a spy rather than a power soldier. Who wants to hack consoles all day? It’s fun as part of the game but not all the time. Usually I ignore consoles altogether.
What is the benefit to having more consoles taken anyways besides having a place to replenish ammo?
