I don't think limiting specific equipment to a particular suit class is a good idea.
This idea.
I mean just scouts, not other light suits. It would make a scout sniper more useful as they can keep a look out from afar and transmit what they see to the team. An active scanner would still be more useful as it could be used by anyone with equipment, leave targets lit up, and can see through walls and floors. |

[Request] making scouts real scouts: sharing vision with squad
Krom Ganesh wrote:For this to be useful for sniper scouts who wish to point out enemies for their team, the sniper rifle would need an additional effect of targeted enemies staying scanned for a short duration (3-5 secs?) since staying on a moving target is not easy in this game. |

So AR EZ-Mode could shoot over my shoulder as I sneak up on unsuspecting prey?
Strongly dislike.
When I want to share what I see, I pull out my Active Scanner.
Give Scouts two equipment slots and most will do the same.
This idea isn't bad, but it isn't a Scout Buff.
This idea is a non-Scout buff.
If CCP's plans for Scouts is exclusive to running recon for EZ Mode, they should let us know now so we can move on.
I'd like to think that Dust has room for a crafty Assassin class.
No doubt EZ mode detests the idea of an effective Assassin, but I have faith in CCP's vision (until they tell me otherwise). |

We had that. It was called TacNet.
Now we don't. It is called Draw Distance Optimization (aka Cut Off Reduction).
The middle ground, well significantly less than half of what we had, is replaced with Scanners. Which means Scouts cannot use them and Uplinks. Or Remote Explosives. Just bouncing around flaying a Scanner around that will generate Zero WP.
That is the definition of Fun.
I think I meant is the definition of DUST. When it is not Fun.  |
