Another illiterate! I said OPTION TO TURN IT OFF!

only retards pay attention to the notification... I don't need to see it on my screen every 5 seconds of gameplay to know im being hunted by some idiot who NEEDS a scanner to find some enemies.

There is a HUGE difference between knowing someone is following/hunting you, and knowing someone is following/hunting you AND that they know PRECISELY where you are at EVERY second. FFS! Are the implications of that difference that freakin' subtle?! If you're scanned, you can't effectively flank, or play with REs. There's no possibility of sneaky ninja moves or managing to lose the enemy in an installation. If you come head to head with someone who scanned you, they're going to get the first shot every time. If you're standing just around a corner and you get scanned, you're about to eat a cooked core locus grenade! Scanning is amazing, and being scanned sucks, and I can't understand why you don't want to know about it.

Of course I know where the enemy is generally, but if I want to be able to cook grenades with perfect accuracy, and know exactly where to throw it for a triple kill before I even poke my head out around the corner, or line up my SCR headshots before strafing out, or know that there's some kid with AV nades and a nanohive lurking on that rooftop, I'm going to need a scanner. It's a tool, and an extremely useful one at that.

If you really want to get rid of your notification, that's fine by me. You're just gimping yourself. Knowing when you're scanned and when you're not is important information.

It's a simple request to have an on off switch. I could care less if you want it flashing in your face all the time! I want it to turn off!

Like I ALREADY said, I run front line! The ENTIRE match for me is "YOU'VE BEEN SCANNED". Its not like you cowards hiding somewhere never being scanned! I already know what time it is when I step onto the field!
