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.
Adapt or die bitches.

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

You realize that most of them have probably jumped on the Caldari Scout train by now, right?
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.

It's not like I could scan good scouts before 1.8, the only thing cloaks do is make it so I can't see you when I'm looking in your direction.
I used to go 40/x with my heavy all the time. Guess what, heavies don't have equipment, or any sort of passive scan. Yet now all of the scouts who can see the enemy are the ones topping the score boards.
And don't get me started about tanking scouts with 500 shields -_-
A brick tanked cal scout is not a very good scanner.
In order to make a cal scout super efficient at scanning, you have to sacrifice almost all of your shield ehp. In order to maximize the cals scouts range your have to sacrafice armor, dampners, card regs or kin cats. Basically you have to make it super squishy.
This is very different from just slapping a scanner on any brick tanked suit with an equipment slot. Scanners were not hard to fit on a slayer suit and that was the problem with them and that's why they were abused.
Also, as far a squad vision, I have tested it multiply times with corp mates and it does not appear to be working properly. I though they had removed it completely but other players are saying it's still here. It could be another bug and I will keep testing it, but I don't think cal scouts share Intel like scanners do. The fact still remains cal scouts are not as effective as scanners without making a proto Cal scout have about 250 hp. Whereas a logi can have four times the ehp and twice the scanner range.
And if someone was dumb enough to put 4 complex precision enhancers on a cal scout, it would still not be as good as a proti focused scanner.

Actually I am making fun of how bad so many players are now they don't have their 360 scans. Their are tons of players who literally can not play this game without scanner Intel and it is extremely fun to murder them now that they can't constantly scan me.

This is true. Scanners are still good. But with the changes to scout profile, cloaks and the changes to scanners, they are not as effective as they where. And now they are not abused as much as they where.
I rarley see "scan attempt prevented" now and even more rare is "you have been scanned."
It is a scouts paradise.

A level 5 brick tanked cal scout only has a precision of about 27 and only a range of about 45 meters. It is very easy for any scout to get under 27 with a damp or cloak or booth. Also, a gal scout with two damps can not be seen by a cal scout with 4 precision.
