Stealth scanners should remove the "you have been scanned" from the scanned players screen they could have cons to balance them but I want a stealthier scanner. Something that gives away the enemy's position but also lets him know I am there is not quite completely what I want to use.

Then it'd only be fair if failing to scan to opponent didn't result in an error message, letting you know that there is, in fact, an enemy in the area you were scanning.

Sure, if it doesn't give you a message telling you that there are people you failed to scan.

Nah that'd ruin the role of the scanner it could be balanced by higher cool down times or less scanning time.

Are you joking?
The fact that it tells you someone is there even when they avoided the scan ruins the role of the scout and dampeners.

this person gets it.
i spend all this damn SP to avoid proto scanners and they can still tell the direction from which i'm coming.
such is the everyday life of a scout, or anyone trying to avoid scanners...

Nope, not going to happen.
Its the only advantage Passive Scanning has, heck, even Passive Scan doesn't tell you if it missed enemies.

Yes! Not only are they annoying but it gives the scanned player a heads up when scanners supposed to give you a advantage.
Just the tip?

After the first time it pops up on my screen I usually just ignore it since I can safely assume it'll be up there all game.
I haven't been wrong anytime I checked.

i don't see it too often, as proto scanners aren't usually used in pub, but when i do, i switch to a fit i call, "Can't Scan This" which avoids everything except the focused scanner. if i'm still being scanned after that, then a have a quick laugh, then switch back to my original fit.

This +100000
For crying out loud, scout sacrifice so much to avoid a proto scanner, and it STILL tells them that we are in the area, just not where.

Your such an idiot
So you don;t want a message for people you've scanned saying you've been scanned so you can attack them stealthily after scanning them yet want to keep the message you get that tells you that their is some margin of error when someone has avoided being scanned when they are using dampening mods to avoid being scanned and play stealthily?
I mean .. come on .. and you wonder why I call you an idiot all the time

Beyond what others suggest about the other message being removed (which should be removed from the device wholesale if you ask me) a 'Stealth Active Scanner' should be far weaker than it's contemporaries. If it's operating at a frequency weak enough to not be detected, it isn't strong enough to ping anyone who takes any precautions.

Just remove all messages from Scanner use.
Give Scouts that have avoided the Scanner a message saying a Scanner was used.
Maybe even have Scouts have a "reverse ping" system built into their suits to highlight the enemy using one.

Ah sorry I misread your statement after re reading understand it I am not really discussing that part of the scanner just the "you have been scanned" part. Removing it for specific scanners would allow players to scan without giving enemys in the area a heads up that someone is around.

I thought you were someone else So I removed the name calling bit
And the 2nd part was in response to your reply to Arkena who asked you that question and you said yes
