Is it just me or are these essential before you even bother loading up a map? If I see the loadout is the crappy default I think, 'lazy bugger' and pass, or if every loadout is just more of the same - guns without suppressors - I give it a definite hard pass.

I've no doubt the frantic run-n-gun crowd will scoff, but I like to always play the stealth game and I can't be doing with my location being given away the moment I fire a gun. Completely ruins any fun for me, so I just don't bother.
