You all know who you are.
You where the dbags that couldn't play a match without scanning the instant your cool down was over.
You where the dbags who made "you have been scanned" get burned into my tv screen.
You where the one's that had zero situational awareness and always relied on scanners for kills.
Now you are the ones dying to scouts constantly.
And now you are the ones screaming "scouts/cloaks are op" and crying since your ez mode is gone.
Quit the QQ. Admit you are a bad player who needed constant Intel from scans just to compete.

Albeit the scan angle could use a little bit of a boost... 60 degrees ain't much when you can only point it in one direction.

I can tell you - today is the FIRST time I have used a scan in my whole life, and I've been playing the game for a few months. So, I have never used it pre-patch and I hated all the scan ballerinas. I hated their freaking smug faces as they danced all over the place and kept me permanently scanned. I hate them still...
But to the point. After playing around with the scanner, I have to say - I like it the way it is. I mean... I could use a bit of a wider angle, but meh... Maybe it will get patched in a year. |

That's why you see alot more vehicle scanners now. Kind of illogical CCP nerfed equipment Scanners but did nothing (noticeable if at all) to Scanner modules for vehicles.

Haha very true. I stopped using it when I realized how obviously OP it was. Now I like it though... It's in a good place. I find myself scanning people who I know are there just so I know which way they are looking. |

True. But they can't lock down an area out to 100m with 360 scans like they used to.

Doubtful.
The Cal Scout is nothing like the scanner spamming problem. A decent Cal scout fit, 1 precision and 1 range amp can only scan less than half the range on a scanner. Also cal scouts can't share Intel with squad like scanners and they can't wp ***** with Intel kill assists. And there are still plenty of dampened suits you can't pick up without using several precision enhancers and having no ehp.
Most importantly, most of the players who abused scanners before did it cause they could have a 900hp logi suit and it was easy.
A proper scout, not brick tanked, is made out of glass and it is not easy. Thus I don't think as many have transitioned to Cal scout as you think.

Gallente Logi's still have near perfect scans.... The only nerf is the delay...
So 4-5 seconds? they spend dark maximum...
Not only that but when your scanning now your not holding it in your hand while an enemy walks around the corner and laughs at your while he sprays bullets at you. Scanner out.. press trigger.. Done.
It's what we wanted for scanning... Specialists at it... Otherwise it be based off Passive Modules/skills and a revamped Tacnet. |

You're wrong about not providing intel, if the cal scout sees it, the squad sees it. So you're still permascanned, just half the range now |

I haven't tried using them yet though so I may agree with you later haha. But I am glad 360s are impossible |

I'd say the scout suit would be better for some instances. Especially now that they've taken away 360 scans and people going in and out if cloaks randomly. And you can't underestimate how useful the squad sharing is when you have more than one scout. |

Yup. Guilty as charged. I did the twirl and would deliberately sneak to a mess of redberries just to get them all so my squaddies could rip them apart. That was my job. It's harder now. Don't care, will prolly still do it....except now, I can get away :)

Maybe gallente logis could lose scan uptime and instead get 7.5% scan angle width increase / level? Would take a 60 degree scan to 82.5 |

Actually they do share intel with squad. And 2 cplx range amps is 70 meters with change, with 2 precision amps you have about 17 precision... So they're almost better |

i ran stable scanners on a min scout fit so i could provide scans for my squadies and get target intelGǪits part of my game, and now that scanners are broken, we have cal scouts
Scanners need to fill up the whole angle, and need to be more consistent. Sometimes they're fine, othersGǪ.lets just say that the angle is about 5-¦ and doesnt pick up a MLT heavy
