Lots of things to look forward systems wise (afk fix, matchmaking, ds3, vehicular manslaughter), balance wise(laser scope and armor) but I am really psyched about the visuals and effects. Just like weapon self shadowing doesnt sound like much on a piece of devblog, it makes a lot of difference in the immersion of the first person on the battlefield. The before and after are so different but you don't realize it.

" Fixed particle lights so weapons and objects around the player will be illuminated when firing a weapon",

This is a similar thing that I really liked when playing 1.4. and hadn't realized how important it felt.

...bump

lol... I was running with the joke... you just made yourself look like an idiot

sarcasm...learn it...

how could you forget about the new battlegrounds and SI?????????

Since Devs are posting, any reason you like to bend over and screw scout suits so much ? (removing turn speed which is the scouts only advantage)
Also any reason why you didnt expand on the DS3 or any other gamepads sensitivity so we can be competitive vs kb/m ?

So much anger. Do you enjoy physical activities? It might help the stress ya know

Im angry because CCP is screwing over my character completely.

I can now no longer play my scout with these changes, I cannot run my tanks with these SL changes, I cant run my dropships either. I feel there is no point to this game as of 1.4 because everything I do gets f-'d over by CCP because they have to "balance"

Edit - Also, yes I do enjoy physical activities, im an avid mountian biker, paintballer and swimmer

You make it sound like CCP is actively targeting you and only you :/

Plenty of changes to help scouts in the next build... or do you cherry pick what you complain about?

Reading this made me feel like the guy on the Maxell commercial who sits on the leather chair with the sound blasting away at him. Why don't you take a break. Come back when you ready. If not, then you need to stop whining and learn how to adapt/overcome.

Please, PLEASE tell me the bonus that scouts are getting? If its scan crap you're talking about, thats not how I play scouts and is useless to me. Im not a sneaky scout and I didnt spec into scouts to be sneaky. Im a hit and run scout.

My bad, that installation is freaking awesome to play, reminded me of "the Edge", for those that remember.

If you say so. Next time, I'll hold them back till after the patch is out. CPM asked, CCP will deliver.

(Before anyone panics, not serious. We love you guys too much for that.)

IF it works, scanning profile has not worked once since the first week of chromo. Even today before 1.4 I can see maxed out scouts with dampaning through walls and on the opposite side of the map by just going into ADS and pointing in their general direction.
Still 1.4 is a huge nerf to scouts with the heavy change in turn speed and the change in strafe.

I run a biotic scout (so somewhat similar to what you seem to run) and I have to say that I'm cautiously optimistic about 1.4 still. Like someone said earlier the passive scan changes will help. But mostly the disabling of squad vision. BTW scanning has worked throughout uprising, it's just not super useful, maybe 1.4 will change that, maybe not. You should check out a proto gallente scout with 4 range amps. It's awesome.

Also, so you believe that scouts, by virtue of being light frame, should not be allowed to be seen? So if someone tries to aim at you then you can just not show up? Stop whining and think about it. You complained about being highlighted by someone ADSing you. I don't know what you're doing wrong, but cover works great for me...

Beyond that, the CQC is getting some love, at least on the DS3. I don't know why EVERYONE glosses over the return of aim assist. That will be huge to all the shotgun scouts, at least in my opinion. Might help everyone elses aiming too but CQC will get the most advantage there.

Finally, as soon as CCP released details of turn rate changes and changes to TACNET, I started saving my SP. Time to try out some different strategies. My playstyle may not be as viable as before. Adapt or Die.

I run max shields, stamina and basic armour repper on my minni scout.

No, what I stated was I can see people on the other side of the map through walls if I ADS and have tested this with corp mates in FW.

I dont use aim assist so big help? Maybe they should turn up sensitivity on the DS3 and other controllers so its not so bloody slow. Currently its at 5% of what I normally play with at maximum.

What more details do you need, the patch notes stated heavy frames are having turn rate removed and big deal on being seen on tacnet, I dont play a stealthy scout, I play a run in, knife or plasma cannon a dude in the face and run out before they can lay fire on me, weaving in and out of buildings. This is a huge nerf to me.

So, please tell me, how can I adapt when CCP keeps ******* me over left and right? Im spec'd into every gun but heavy weapons, AR's, Scrambler rifles and scrambler pistols.

Should I just spec into another suit ? Waste 2m+ on something when my suit should ******* work?
