I think that most (not all) of the fourms problems with light operatives is the fact that every kid thinks that they are gonna be 'well ninja' backstabbing, jumping all over the place and racking up loads of kills, and that about as useful as a bucket of hammers. Also most gamers over a certain age find that sort of thing very annoying in a objective based game, if you wanna run about like a dike play COD.
But I don't want to run around like a dike, I want to JUMP around like a dike =D
And I promise you, I will have a character to do just that, for when I don't feel like trying.
