    Ghost War Thermal Hotfix

    The thermal hot fix will create another problem set. The assault class will be too strong.

    I believe it was stated that thermals would be set to short to medium range. All 8 Ghost War maps are close to medium range.

    Short range is 200yds and closer.
    Medium range is 200yds to 600yds.
    Long range is 600yds and beyond.

    My longest sniper kill in game from spawn to spawn is right under 500m (546.807 yards) which falls under medium range.

    In any case, If the devs nerf thermal range the marksman class will be hurt and the assault will be too strong.

    Thermals need to be removed completely or left as is.

    How about a new muticlass perk, something like coldblooded.

    I think they should just be removed entirely. Too many people are just sitting with them equipped and not actually doing anything in match. Night vision should be the only option as it doesn't cause people to camp in one sector and not do anything.

    I think adding flares into the inventory would be the best way to counter it. Or maybe have a decoy that resembles a body lying down. Then you could set traps for thermal users.

    How do you feel about the 'battery' option?
    I think this linked with a 'warm up' delay (say 3 seconds) to prevent people from flicking on off might do it

    Battery with a cool down isn’t a bad idea either.

    Im sure a Sniper on the other side of the map will have it figured out after his first shot does not kill.

    No just get rid of it completely.

    Getting rid of it would turn the game into a bunch of people with their D’s in the dirt waiting for people to walk by them and kill them. I rarely use thermals, but if I run into a squad, and I have, of a bunch of people who don’t leave the spawn and lie in bushes then I whip out the thermals on the next round.

    Only on drone of [new class] and as a thermal scope - once they give us the option to change scopes. This is my suggestion and I prefer it over all others.

    I think the range should be a little less, and they should put a timer and cool down on it like drones. I understand this is supposed to be a slow game but removing thermal might make it way to slow. People will literally not move from spawn and just wait around until they spot someone.

    I literally quit the co-op mode because it was so slow. Like literally one night I sat there and stared at a house for a hour trying to kill one guy so I can finish one of those missions where you have to take a car without being spotted. I'd hate it if the same thing happened in PVP where I have to wait 8 mins for people to move out of their spawn, or I can rush into their spawn and risk dying then waiting the rest of the round staring at my teammates camping spawn.

    I also think they need to make this game 5v5 instead of 4v4. These maps are way to big for 4v4.
