I was really struggling with the CIA ops at first. But once you get the hang of them (and they get that juicy experience) its a fun challenge for some intense Hollywood scenarios.

12:46 if you get to close (represented by the yellow zone) you'll become suspecious. nades and gunshots also create those zones. This mechanic was added pretty recently, to prevent some realy ridiculous situations from happening, its not super realistic but its pretty well balanced.

I want a speed control on my guys as well. Like sometimes I want them to pie something off nice and slow. Not too hard to accomplish in big areas, but cramped ones like where Sam went down would be super useful. It would also be cool to see guys choke up on their weapons to prevent flagging around corners or lowering their weapons in tight spaces too. And all those little tactical things could be used to differentiate the training levels of enemy forces too. Veterans may try to pie corners while conscripts just walk in, etc.

MP5SD is great man, idk what everyone is saying. I've used it for many missions without a single casualty and it's perfect for stealth, since the VSS is a bit too long and takes a while to aim. Regular MP5 and SD have carried me through many CQB missions

[@DuraLexSedLex]

MP5SD is hilariously good for quiet assassinations because of the extremely short sound detection range. The way the game works is flat out if they arent in the sound range, they dont react to it. This spoofs the AI hard. The AI gets very dumb when you kill people a room over with suppressed SMGs.

[@arguy3297]

For the purpose it was designed for its perfect. (For now) someone mentioned the devs want to configure suppressors as attachments instead of silenced weapons variants. It would be great to be able to have a silenced Mk18.
