I don't see a problem with it. And besides, if you're in a non-scout suit, then it's likely you're in a group and often times being in a group can discourage lone mercs from attacking you anyways even if they scanned you down. It's a trade off that everyone here has to live with. Frankly, you're the first person I have seen since the beginning of this month to ever complain about the active scanners and want them nerfed. If it took this long for someone like you to complain about it, then it looks like the active scanners are not as OP as you make it out to be. Besides, it doesn't take up that much SP to train up your profile dampening skills a bit so you can at least avoid the standard-level scanners which most of us are probably using at the moment. |

Silly? Dude, that's a good thing. What are you talking about? That kind of stuff changes the dynamics of the gameplay and thus encourages you to think more tactically rather than just running around guns ablaze. Almost everyone I spoke to (most of whom are non-scouts) seem to enjoy themselves more. The game is finally becoming tactical as it should rather than just becoming a typical lobby shooter. |

Shared vision is actually what killed the scout role in the previous build. |

It seems like you're the only one here with a complaint. Maybe a couple of others, but that's it. Everyone else doesn't have a problem with the active scanners. |

If Scanners were EASY MODE, then everyone would use them. If everyone used them, then we'd back to Shared Sight. The only thing that has changed is that there is now benefit to having a Dampened Profile. When everyone starts realizing how broken the scanner is now, we will be back to shared sight. Except that no one will be able to take a dump behind cover because everyone will know about it. Meaning a Dampened Profile will now make a difference. When Shared Sight was in play, it did not. Of course it did. I had profile dampener lv 5 and dropsuit command lv 5 (not sure if that was the name, which also reduced your profile) and no modules on proto assault and red dots ignored me often. They could only see my red name when they aimed directly at me.
As a dedicated scout myself since closed beta, I call bullshit. |
