Before the Cal scout gets nerfed by community's stupidity,can someone with a capture card camera gather evidence of the supposed error of hit detection involving the suit?I hear all this talk and see nothing to support it,while i die in a cal scout suit as normal.

problem is though there are quite a few number of players that don't feel the issue either.

Aeon amandi is already doing some testing and recording.

I keep hearing rumors about the Caldari Scout having a different hitbox or something and... Yanno what, to hell with it, let's put it to the test. I have HD video recording equipment and even though I have a lot of artwork to do right now (this is how I feed myself after all) I'll hop on Dust 514 and test this [redacted].

Never know... Might be some validity in it... Collision boxes were bugged when sprinting once so, who knows..

Translation: complaining about a bug doesn't work, you need connection info and video recording for CCP to fix anything.

Alright, I played quite a bit this weekend. One of the major parts of my game is a very aggressive placement of me forging. I like to be somewhere in which I am vulnerable but so are all of the infantry and vehicles.

For about the 10th time (probably significantly more) some Cal scout flies a drop ship to me, gets out, and takes absolutely zero damage for about 2 full clips of my damage modded adv Magsec.

The cal scout "hitbox" needs to be fixed. All scouts should have the minmatar hit box. I'll tell you that I have never stood and took 2 clips from a 1500 HP Amarr Sentinal's side arm and killed it with a proto combat rifle approaching in a fair 1v1. Now, most of the time it has been 2v1 and I always kill the other guy if it isn't a cal scout but as soon as it's time for me to finish the cal scout...well I don't win a great majority of the time. What is ironic is in another match the guy got sniped, it clearly said 17 armor left and I just kept hitting with my magsec while watching the shields regen.


This really needs to be fixed.

I'm truly at the breaking point of quiting this game.

75% of my deaths are suicide (I pop hives and uplink where I want to forge snipe and then suicide and spawn in as Forge), Orbital, or some kind of Bug (i.e. Cal Hit box, lag, etc.). The other 25% are rail snipers in the redline, normal snipers in the redline, normal deaths, forge sniped, and just normal stuff people have to deal with when they become a target when you harass like I do.

I know this is not the first time this has been posted on the forums. Hotfix Charlie needs to make the scout hitbox the same for all scouts and I suggest the minmatar hitbox as a reference.

IgnurableAura (not sure if I spelled that right) made a video about Scouts and Hit Detection.
