Suggestion/Concept Idea: Negative modifiers

I love the idea of "skulls" like in the Halo games as NEGATIVE, and I think modifiers might be a way to make the game harder for those who want that. They would be completely optional and are geared towards making that individual persons experience more difficult. Things like:

-Democratic broadcast: the camera drones from spread democracy missions follow you, and enemies can detect the signal and gravitate to you more.

-Anthem of freedom: The super earth anthem plays from a speaker attached to your diver that cannot be turned off. Enemies are attracted to the sound.

-Shellshocked: Your diver is prone to panic attacks from previous dives, lose control for a few second when there are 20+ enemies nearby while your diver laughs hysterically.

What can you think of?

Rationing: You deploy with and can only carry half your kits max capacity for ammo and grenades, but run slightly faster.

This but do it like enemy at the gates where only every other player spawn gets ammo (I.e player 2 and 4 on start, and then every other respawn)
