I think crypto issue is that he has to go into his drone, why?
Why have a nurolink when you have to go in it?
I think that they should get rid of that completely it's useless and a waist of time.
SEER can hold his hand up and sense heart beats.
Bloodhound claps his handS together and sees everything.
CRYPTO throws his drone out maybe sees them, goes into a drone look at a banner, and his squad is gone. Granted you can get better at it. But still happens.
Best thing for crypto is more then one drone and to be able to throw them out like gernades just a sticky camera that sticks to walls and ceilings and rocks and stuff, still has a emp he just super charges one of those cameras throws it out and boom.
Have his passive to look at banners and see who's in the area and done.
Cause crypto is not a legend, his drone is. He's got zero powers when that thing is gone.
@Philin-it Multiple drones sounds like a nightmare of controls waiting to happen. How do you recall just one drone? How do you choose between sending out a drone or entering drone mode? What drone does drone mode enter? Which drone gets the EMP?
The best I see would be a follow mode for the drone, allowing you to access the drone mode bonuses (drone vision that follows your view, see nearby counter, and instant interactions) while the drone follows you, allows you to send the drone to follow teammates so that you can focus on catching up to the fight and still help, and fix the egregiously long drone destroyed cooldown. Preferably by auto-recalling the drone if it takes damage at 1 hp instead of destroying it, and allowing the drone to be redeployed even at 1hp, the drone recovering hp when it is stored.
so your idea for the drone legend is to take away his drone. just play someone else at that point. i like flying the drone around, its fun.
just because youre not good at crypto doesnt mean he needs to have an entire identity shift. the follow mode thing is a good idea, the emp grenade thing is a good idea, getting rid of a mobile flying eye in the sky in favor of three eyes on a wall is terrible, and would only be a crutch.
crypto gets a bad rep because people pick him without thinking, then they either spend too much time in the drone, and not enough time shooting the enemy with their team, or they forget the drone exists and play him as Guy with a Gun. the key is knowing WHEN to drone, the how is easy.
actually, now that im thinking of it, the follow mode idea, while not outright terrible, isnt really very good either. having eyes in the back of your head would be nice, but i have ears, and a nice headset that lets me know which direction sounds are coming from. i wouldnt need the follow mode. nobody else should need it either. if you feel like this is the change that would make crypto viable, i urge you to just practice and get better at awareness. if it falls into "crutch" territory its not a good idea. if it falls into the category of "this should just be part of his tactical" you fall back into the problem we already have which is crypto doesnt have a passive ability. he definitely needs a new passive, but if its not a very good one, he wont get another passive for a looong time.
these are things it seems people dont actually think about. i feel like people play a game, lose to something frustrating, then come to the forums to complain to the devs to "fix" it so that doesnt happen to them anymore.
