Just got out of a match with a 7/5 kd running nova knives, std minnie scout, and a adv scanner. I singlehandedly removed all opposition from a roof that had like a squad and a half on it. If i didn't get them from the roof we would have surely lost. |

I went 23/0 With a skinweve Cal Assault freefit already, and that's against protobears. Tried doing the same thing with my Dragonfly freefit, went 15/19. Yea, underpowered. |

Prototype knives are fearsome. But scouts are not. |

I've had to completely change my playstyle.
Scan and pick on Lone Enemies, try to stay hidden, once I'm caught, I either run, or if I'm feeling brave, take the enemy out.
Its definitely the only way to play Scout right now, my low HP means once I'm caught their ARs tear right through me. |

I only have advanced nova knives but they're still as fearsome. And an undetected scout is. |

Lone enemies? Screw that. I take the risk of trying to come up and take out full squads at a time from behind and have at times. went 5/0 against a team that had teamplayers nova knifing 2 guys in a row, then later on 3.

I would if there was some kind of Friendly Fire.
Jumping into groups, making them shoot wildly and kill each other sounds fun.

Dude I'm happy you went positive with knives, but don't post that there underated when every scout in the game that's been using one for over a year is begging ccp to fix them.
With practice you will get high scores but were all pushing for a buff of at least more pg, CPU an possibly more slots, once you get your stuff to proto level an realize you can barely fit anything good on ur suit even with maxing other skills you ll know why I say this, check this link |

That's when you skirt the outer edges for snipers.

I meant underrated in effectiveness in a squad. I totally agree we need a buff, I just haven't gotten around to my thoughts on what should be done to the scout yet. Since 1.4 the speed vs hp is useless. People back stepping faster than we can nova knife forward is just atrocious. Cpu and pg need to be upped, we should have one more equipment slot., higher movement speed. |

I like to shotgun scout circles around control points while hacking it for a second to make it flash, sprinting away, and them coming back to deliver swift death. |

As a scout, I endorse this thread.
However, as has been mentioned, even with our best tricks and most cunning antics, many MANY scouts struggle. My worst games are usually like 3/7, 2/8..... open maps mean sniper rifle, laser or AR.... closed maps are all SMG/Shotty. My best games MAYBE have me getting an 8/3 or something.... not stellar compared to the medium frame scores.
As for active scanner - I stay away from it and just go with passive scanning.... that way my targets don't even know I'm trying to find out where they are. It's not always successful but, hey.... it's working okay for the moment. It would SO help if the scan radius started out as 15m instead of 10 for scouts.... maybe in 1.6.
Awesome, just gotta hold out until November.....  |

Inside cities I've been going 20/6 , 24/8 an goin maybe positive or having really low scores due to hiding an attacking only a few targets out in the wide maps considering weapons have too much range now, so if your spotted your dead, I have to change tactics on open maps but it all depends how I feel or what game mode, skirmish is easy to hide an kill an pretty much the best gameplay for a scout.
Cities are amazing for me but it really depends on if my team is winning or losing, sneaky is really the name of the game now, kinda like hit man or splinter cell |

Psssh.
I Always use Militia Minnie, Breach Shotty, and Adv Novas, usually go around 15-5.
Oh yeah, did I mention I use RE's?
I remember once at the star of a match, instead of hacking an objective, I put an R. These two guys come and try to hack it, detonate it, and kills one of them. I don't know why, I think the other saw me round a corner, asi round the corner, I drop anRE, and this dumb*** waddles over it. Tapped my finger, and I saw him fly past the corner. |
