Onesimus Tarsus Kameira Lodge Amarr Empire 661	Posted - 2013.10.09 01:16:00 - [1] - Quote We run away from a lot of stuff, and that's the first thing I would have engineered if I was working on an actual scout suit. Sure, make us pay for squaring up against a HMG, but we ought to get a bonus for running away from trouble.
Fizzer94 L.O.T.I.S. 286	Posted - 2013.10.09 01:33:00 - [2] - Quote This would be interesting. Scouts suits could have damage restance when shot from behind, and be easy to kill from the front like they currently are from all angles. Sentinels suits could have something like this as well, but opposite. They could take reduced damage from the front, but have weak rear defenses.
Fire of Prometheus DUST University Ivy League 553	Posted - 2013.10.09 01:36:00 - [3] - Quote This is a really cool idea, it would be cool and make strategy more important
BLACKSTAR AND TSUBAKI SVER True Blood Public Disorder. 95	Posted - 2013.10.09 01:50:00 - [4] - Quote you got my vote
Ghost Kaisar Pradox One 450	Posted - 2013.10.09 01:55:00 - [5] - Quote Signed.
Delta 749 Kestrel Reconnaissance 2068	Posted - 2013.10.09 01:57:00 - [6] - Quote Sure, of course that extra armor backpack should slow you down Or heres a novel idea, if you want more survivability while keeping a decent amount of speed skill into a medium suit
DUST Fiend OSG Planetary Operations Covert Intervention 6820	Posted - 2013.10.09 01:58:00 - [7] - Quote Speaking as a Frenchman, I approve this message.

Why go scout when an Assault can do it's own job better? Right now the only real bonus we get is the Profile Dampening. Which is invaluable now. Apart from that though, once a scout is found, it's time to run away. Which is why we are given speed. To run away from fights. Except we can't run away. We die. Hence why we either need more speed, or more survivablility. Or a cloak. I want a cloak.
Cyrius Li-Moody The New Age Outlaws 1182	Posted - 2013.10.09 03:36:00 - [10] - Quote Hilarious yet practical.

LOADED'HORN KILL-EM-QUICK RISE of LEGION 20	Posted - 2013.10.09 03:45:00 - [11] - Quote Great idea. Here's your bannana.
Aaroniero d'Lioncourt The Southern Legion The Umbra Combine 180	Posted - 2013.10.09 03:51:00 - [12] - Quote Should have different efficiency rating % on arms, legs, body, and head. And guns get destroyed when shot at.

Eh, super speed or invisibility would be game breaking Personally I think they should look at other ways to buff the scouts like altering the hack speeds on each suit so scouts and logis get faster hacks and counter hacks and making narrow areas in maps only scouts can slip through I mean you cant tell me air ducts for scouts to sneak through and around wouldnt add an interesting layer to the game
Niuvo The Phoenix Federation 602	Posted - 2013.10.09 05:16:00 - [14] - Quote interesting post, but I would rather run quicker out of harms way or the damn CLOAK that only the scout class can use. If we have extra armor on the back then we'll be...wait for it...Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
Sinboto Simmons SVER True Blood Public Disorder. 1380	Posted - 2013.10.09 11:29:00 - [15] - Quote fantastic idea +1

TechMechMeds Swamp Marines Kleenex Inc. 339	Posted - 2013.10.10 17:27:00 - [17] - Quote You guys just need extra armour on your yellow butt plug so you don't get butt raped in the warbarge.

lrian Locust We Who Walk Alone 170	Posted - 2013.10.10 18:32:00 - [19] - Quote Increased hacking speed for scouts definitely makes a lot of sense!

Not to sound whiny, but a cloak does you a fat lot of good when they can guess one bullet into your scoutsuit and your head explodes.

Onesimus Tarsus Kameira Lodge Amarr Empire 679	Posted - 2013.11.16 01:11:00 - [21] - Quote Heckin' A. Take away sidearms, or just allow only sidearms, or something, but give us the hacking buff, complete dampening, and thicker shields when sprinting away.
Onesimus Tarsus Kameira Lodge Amarr Empire 679	Posted - 2013.11.16 01:12:00 - [22] - Quote And yes, i know how old this thread is.
