And I don't get too serious with videogames... everyone can fit scanner and use it. I farm WP with it and give vital information to squadleader when OB is about to happend because I don't use mic in game it's my way to communicate. |

The Active Scanner have replaced my Tactical Awareness, provably one of the best Lazy Tools ever. I look forward to repeatedly shooting you in the back whenever I see you  Profile Dampening is a niche skill, but with the advent of Active Scanners it's a very useful skill. As you say, many people are somewhat oblivious to the effect dampening can have on a game and as such become complacent: Scanners are bad for bad players - no offence intended, I'm just trying to say that if you're going to rely on such a piece of equipment, expect to get badly mauled by those who have accounted for it. Profile Dampening ?.... ha !... don't make me laugh... the active scanner even talks me when is a scout near by...; Some Margin For Error = Look out for a Scout.
That should be removed, yes! I don't even read that text when I'm scanning... |

I don't even read that text when I'm scanning... You don't read that huge white letters in the MIDDLE of your screen ?.... you just have to look for the word SOME... don't even need to read the full thing. That is just FAR to LAZY.... 
Yes, I don't read the text... I look minimap and field. actually I can say that I havn't saw that text ever.
EDIT: and also I don't hunt those reddots. as I said I only scan for my squad and then get back to my logistic job. |

Shotty GoBang wrote:IMHO, scanner spam is no different from shared Squad Sight, except for the fact that it can be countered. Benefits: - Adds specific value to Stealth builds, offering benefit to running around in a squishy Scout suit.
- Affords Mediums a new playstyle option, in that they can sacrifice tank for stealth.
- Offers a solid counter to cloaked combatants (down the road).
That said, specific improvements could be made to make the Scanner more tactical and less spammable: 1) Eliminate Quick Scan: Results aren't displayed until scan cycle is 100% complete. 2) Eliminate Spin Scan: Only the targets painted for the full duration of a scan are displayed.
I'm ok with that (nr.2)
Suomi, Finland, PERKELE!
