I rarely post on forums but now I think it's a good cause. Pardon my english, I'm brazilian.

"You have been scanned" "You have been scanned" All the time.

I tried the advance for myself and it's a joke. It's OP and kills any tactics. Flanking is dead, now everyone knows where everyone else is at now. Why don't we just remove all covers from the map and shoot at each other in the open and whoever has the most HP/DPS wins.

The only way to counter that scanner I think it's to play a scout with dampener. Everyone else is doomed to stay forever on the enemy scan.

Either nerf the scanner to 2 seconds max (just to get a glimpse of the enemy is enough not this BS scanner)

or remove it entirely and put back team shared vision.

I'm not saying remove active scanners entirely, just nerf the time of effect or increase cooldown time.

Just a few seconds is enough to gain a huge advantage over the enemy.

16 seconds and then u just renew with another 16 seconds as soon as it's over = EASY MODE

jesus - everything to this community is easy mode. First it was heavies, then missiles, then laser, then flaylock, then MD, then forge, and AR will always be called easy mode. And now... SCANNERS.

I'm still waiting for someone to say dropships are easy mode.

The active scanner has been out there for along time i guess thats the equipment of the month . Just use dampeners i use militias and they never find me

The scanner was irrelevant until shared team vision was removed. I'm betting it stays an important piece of equipment.

Even with a shorter duration or increased cooldown it will still be a important equipment.

You don't need to track everyone all the time. Just a few seconds is enough to discover the red dots and then murder them.

Its not breaking the game, you just don't like it.

I thought it was broken before when everyone knew where everyone was at all times pretty much. Scouts can now spot for snipers by scanning.

I know some guys that are true killers say they like to see that they've been scanned. They basically just wait for the red dots to come to them and murder them.

Scan Assisted kills by your squad will net you 15 glorious WP

Okey dokey...

Currently if multiple people scan an enemy they will all get the assist for the kill. Only kills from squad mates will net you WP. Kill assists from squad members will not net you any WP.

Not currently but we are adding that functionality (literally) at the moment. You will not have it in the first iteration though.

I could of sworn it provides details with the whole team, as I recall some matches where no one in my squad ran scanner yet we still saw the flashes.

Oooooohhhh hahahahaha you're kind of late for that one! In closed beta it was common to lodge a Dropship on top of a tower and shoot at everything that moved with small missiles. Back then we had vision across the entire map, as swell as explosives actually had BLAST radius. Dropships were both durable and easy to fly on top of that! Basically the map was blanketed by missile fire from Dropships on top of towers. Average lifespan outside of cover was about 5 seconds.

Heavy retaliation resulted in the blimps we have now....

This guy's complaining about being scanned when he has dampening to proto already....
