I tend to get the best and most accurate scan results if I don't move my right stick at all.
I tend to just move it back and forth in a sweeping motion....maybe that's my problem. |

I personally dont mind everyone ballerinaing every where . If someone has the smarts to scan everywhare then let them . Eh, at this point it is more like common sense. One could simply give a sharp drop to tracking speed while scanning. This would make it impossible to do a full 360 and will force players to focus more on the exact area they wish to scan. Just a thought.
`Sigh. Just another fun game of DUST  .
That's... that's actually brilliant! Okay. What kind of incense do we have to burn to draw in the CCP? Do we have to sacrifice an animal, a firstborn child, a newly wed couple? Build a statue in their honor, perhaps? |

I tend to like this, but take it further. Results are not given at all unless the enemies are in your "cone" for the entire duration of the scan. Twirling would give absolutely no results. It would force people to scan one area at a time, but not negate their ability to move (ie slowing tracking). Tracking is needed so people can rotate the scanner as they move past the area they are scanning. |

If CCP went with that solution, it shouldn't require the entire duration. That's too much. How about 66%? As a red dot spends more time under your scan cone, they "fade" in on your radar. Once they hit 66% of scan time, the scanner has a strong enough reading on them and publishes it on the tacnet.
Edit: And I agree that reducing tracking speed is a terrible idea. If you start scanning and a red dot finds you, you are dead. Can't shoot back and can't turn around to run away. |

OK sure we could allow some margin of error considering **** happens. Make it 7/10 and you have a deal |
