I do hope that this gets traction and/or attention because it would help a lot of people in the long run. I love Siege like everyone else and have sunk a ton of time and money in it than I should have in my life but just couldn't help it. I thought that fixing a few operators would benefit a lot for the lower rank community than having complete focus on the pro league. They can adjust. I am ready to get a bunch of the "git gud" memes, but oh well.
Starting off with Ela, she fires her SMG like she never fired an automatic in her life along with the damage count is far too low for body shots but that is debatable. Plus, she sounds like a 2 armour walking in an empty warehouse. If you want to make it seem more viable for console users, reduce the recoil spread by 15% for have a degree of control and stating that fact that it is also a full size SMG, not a compact. Adding an extra 2-3 damage per shot is like I said, debatable.
Warden's Glasses need fixing and a proper way would be to remove the movement depletion gauge. Having turned him into a 2 armour increased the depletion and his gadget is very situational.
Nokk's primary SMG can be replaced with the MP7 due to its compact size, decent damage against 2-3 armours and versatility would make a fine replacement as the FMG9 suffers against 3 armours, which is more than a third of the defense operators.
The micro SMGs could stand a small recoil spread reduction by 10% to give slightly more control, yet still retaining their light weight and small build. LMGs and DMRs could gain a little bit of love with a slight recoil buff by 5% for LMGs, and fire rate for DMRs to make them a decent alternative to their standard arms.
As for some nerfs, and this will agrivate a few but they can learn as they aren't extensive. Jaeger's 416c could stand for a slight recoil nerf of 5-7% as it stands to reason that it's one of the only defense ARs in the game and it's high damage could use a good counter balance.
Bandit's MP7 would also get a recoil nerf of 7-10% due to its size compared to the rest of SMGs in its class. Doc's and Rook's MP5s would get a 5-7% recoil nerf to balance out the use of ACOGs and reduce the incentive of spawnpeaking, though debatable as well.
A decent Tachanka rework would be that he could be able to use the LMG as his primary but only hipfire, then mount it anywhere stable enough to hold. Even mount it on a deployable shield if available. He could still have the bullet shield but it won't be available for use until he mounts it. Recoil spread would have to be increased slightly when mounted on other platforms than just the tripod.
I know this looks like a long post and may disappear, but I do have hopes that someone might take notice and get the message out. I have been thinking about this for the past hour where I should have been asleep but couldn't. I'm ready for the meme onslaught and I may be only Gold 1, I want to speak out for the low rankers.
