been think about this a bit now black ops has its spy planes eve is so fare in the future why don't we have orbital Scan's that light up the district we are in like a X-mas tree??
could do something like
Short = 1000 WP 60 sec's
mid = 2000 WP 120 sec's
long term = 3000 300 sec's
And this lights up the enemy light they just put in their electric light up sweater in December! |

So you want a full squad to have the enemy lit up for the entire match????
Needs to be like
Short = 1000 WP 10 sec's
mid = 2000 WP 18 sec's
long term = 3000 30 sec's
Also what happens if the clone dies after the scan has started, When he respawn's does he get scanned again?
Would be good for finding snipers though. |

First off I want the whole "TEAM" to see them, if a clone dies a sensor swipe every 30 sec's should fix that for the (insert number) example: 300 sec's time frame. If your in match's that don't last longer then 300 sec's we have some issues! LOL |

O.o
Huh, is it possible to duck the scans? If not then scouts are immediately UP and worthless. If so then snipers will be forced to utilize profile damps instead of tanking themselves out. This means for easier counter snipes.
I would say go with Justice's time frame (first one) as you run the risk of multiple scans being called in simultaneously causing a perma-scan. If this happens then what the hell is the point of fixing the active scanners in the first place?
All in all I have to say no to the idea. It means that a scout's passive scans are worthless which means the C-Scout is obsolete. The M-scout has a hard time dropping his profile and so even if it was possible to duck the scans the M-scout would still be spotted, making him useless.
Scouts are finally getting out of the "UP" pit and this would just Sparta kick them back in.

My thoughts are that scans are too long, and I can see this being abused in general.
Besides, this is essentially what active scanners are for, and they just got a nerf for a reason. Now, you are trying to take the nature of an active scanner, significantly increase the scan time AND the number of people who see it?
I am going to have to give a big fat NO.
Looking for the scout hangout?

lowering your profile with damps would be the best way I would say! Picking up on Heavies and med and tanks and LAV's and what not would be the main goal of the scan |
