You'd be surprised how effective this is. This becomes especially effective when you start to deal with darker map types and night moods wherein a remote explosive 'visually' disappears into the darker surroundings. People often become too eager in these cases to shoot the spawn-pad 'flashlight' before carefully looking around. CCP's new night mood in the 1.4 update may spell doom to people in a new way. I'll be eager to do some tests when it rolls out. i know, it'll be nice to test out. but this is why active scanners will be able to pick them up well at least that is i think CCP is thinking. Yes, at the moment they don't seem to appear at all with any type of scanning or LOS. If remotes are able to be scanned in 1.4, I would prefer advanced and proto-level RE's have lower scan profiles respectively. It would take a prototype scan tool to detect a prototype boundless remote explosive for example.
Well, I disagree with your logic, a RE should be able to be scanned by an active scanner or any scanner, however, the distance recognized what it actually is should be based against your RE. Such as with a militia grade suit, would be nose on the RE, where as a proto scanner should be further out and something specially made to scan, aka an active scanner even militia grade would have around 15m of detection. Otherwise your making people who are not proto or advanced lvl just eat some more **** and smile.
It should be harder to scan with milita grade yes, just like it is harder to fight in combat, but it should never be impossible. Such as if I take a militia gun and try to kill someone in a proto suit, it is going to be hard, I will most likely die pathetically but it can be done. Though I will be very happy when RE's are going to be scannable by active scanner, I'll actually have a reason to put that mod on my vehicle or use it at all. Currently I took it off because it just helps blueberries and gives me nothing in return, well it gives me more cost when my LAV explodes cause I don't have a LLAV. |
