Updated February 26, 2025 by Marc Santos: Delta Force's roster of operators is expected to expand with every seasonal patch, as was the case in the Starfall update with the release of Sineva, a defensive expert who uses a ballistic shield and EOD suit to support his team's pushes in enclosed spaces. We'll be updating this guide to include all new operators released in the game's future seasons to give players a better idea of how to best use t
Find the right Operator that comes with simple abilities
With Operators offering different kinds of abilities, it is a little overwhelming to find the one that works best for each player. Some of them also bring a little more complicated abilities, which means that players should look for the ones who bring a simpler skillset at fi
Right off the bat, the most important thing to note about Hawk Ops is that it nails its gunplay, which feels weighty and satisfying. Considering Team Jade’s past with Call of Duty Mobile, I expected it to be similarly twitchy and fast-paced, but it’s more in line with Battlefield ’s heavier and more realistic feel.
As a long-time Battlefield fan and as someone who generally prefers it over COD’s hectic twitch chaos, I’m more than happy about where Hawk Ops is taking its notes from, even if it does feel familiar. Outside of its tight gunplay, the main focus of Hawk Ops’ is its Operators, which work similarly to Heroes in games like Overwatch and Valorant. My preview featured four to choose from, but I quickly gravitated towards Luna, a Recon Operator whose cooldown abilities let her fire a shock arrow that dealt electric damage over time and a sonar arrow that revealed enemy positions like Hanzo in Overwatch.
The M870 isn't a bad gun, but with how large some of these battles can be, it just isn't worth taking. There are going to be far more opportunities for players to engage with their opponents from a distance, so it makes assault rifles the best option h
This list will cover the best of the Assault Rifles but is subject to change as more time is spent in-game, and the clear meta settles down. This list will also cover Assault Rifles across all classes , meaning that not all of these weapons will be available for each class due to certain roles being restricted from certain weap
Delta Force: Hawk Ops might not offer a groundbreaking take on the FPS genre, but the fact that it comes so close to titans like Battlefield and Tarkov while having its own unique flavour isn’t a bad thing. What really makes it stand out, though, is the fact that it’s offering these seemingly massive game modes for free across consoles, mobile, and PC, something that's very tantalising considering how well it does at replicating the formula. My main takeaway from my time with Hawk Ops is that I wish I’d been able to play more of it, which is pretty good going for a long-dormant series making its comeback.
All of that is present in Hawk Ops, but with the added caveat of choosing an Operator before diving in, which adds another layer by making you consider what abilities you want to bring in. Considering how challenging I found the previous game mode, I opted to go for Stinger, since his Support type allowed me to heal myself without using any resources.
The FPS genre might not be my favourite in gaming (it’s platformers, in case you were wondering), but it’s one I still have a lot of love for. From Medal of Honor and Overwatch to Titanfall and Team Fortress 2 , I’ve put a lot of time into shooters over the years, and have given pretty much all of them a good old-fashioned college try.
Vyron may not be as fast as D-Wolf, but he has much higher maneuverability . He can use his Dynamic Propulsion skill to rapidly dash towards a chosen direction , giving him an easy way to engage or retreat. Vyron's main ability equips him with a grenade launcher that knocks enemies down over a large area, rendering them harmless and vulnerable to damage, making this operator a great pick for breaching tight spa
Stinger is a combat medic who can provide a ton of support to his team . Apart from healing, reviving, and resupplying teammates, he often leads the charge by providing smokescreens to cover the team's advance . Stinger doesn't have the offensive capabilities of the Assault characters, but he can be just as deadly with weapons like the CAR-15 or AKS-74 in Delta For
D-Wolf is the quintessential run-and-gun character . His main ability, Motorized Exoskeleton, lets him run around the battlefield significantly faster than other operators , and so far, he's the only character who can slide after sprinting. His job is to flank enemies with his superior speed and take hostiles out with his grenade launchers and primary weapon. D-Wolf is a great pick, even with just level one weapons , though his effectiveness largely hinges on player sk
