'' I am tired of being sucker punched every match, out strafed to the point I lost to a militia SmG as the Cal scout went left and right back and forth and due to poor hit detection , the scout having a quarter of my hit box was able to jump, glide back and forth to the point my HMG could not keep up. I tried to strafe and follow the target but I could not. It was damn near impossible. As soon as your about the to win they cloak and run faster than you can turn a corner.''


Sorry Mr.Calvin. Being Butthurt is not a good reason to remove something from a game.

Plus= Cloaks = More scouts = More fun for my HMG



Plus : Scouts are MEANT to play solo. They cannot move with a whole squad due to their location being revealed due to their squadmates precision. They are low HP solo players most of the time....

If you were hacking an objective...ALONE... means you were trying to do the scout's job. You deserve a SG/NK/ACR to the neck.

Go in a squad or at least 2 other friends, check for R/E, hack safely.

Everyone wants balance and so do I and that is why the cloak must go, immediately.

The fact I go to hack an objective and nothing shows on my radar, so I begin to hack and of course a SG goes off or CR I turn to return fire and my weapon will not fire do to a glitch yet to be fixed. So I am standing for 2-3 seconds trying to survive as the Cal scout bounces all over the place. Or your heading to your destination and three scouts will decloak and begin to make your life miserable.

The fact a scout can appear out of nowhere, then proceed to whittle you down with a basic CR or militia SmG as you try and hit them is almost impossible. The fact there is not one negative to being a scout at all. They can tank more than an assault, run the same equipment as a Logi, and is faster and better at CQC than a heavy which still boggles the mind.

The scout had issues before the cloak but the cloak has ruined this game IMO. If it was removed then balance would be possible.

My question to CCP how do you defend against a target you cant see. Sure I can see what is front of me but how many times have you been ambushed by group of scouts that appeared out of nowhere.

Cloaks need to be removed or you have to give us a way of seeing them. If I have to run scout to kill a cloaked scout I will quit.

The cloak has been one of the most lopsided items placed in the game IMO and needs to be removed.

its not about seeing the scout it is the fact they do not show up on radar and is able to see your position and the way your facing. A flux should be able to prevent a cloak from working temporary and should cause a cool down before reuse.

Its not being butthurt. Second one does hacking become a scout only roll. The cloak is OP and no matter how many come to the cloaks defense it will be until there is a way to counter it without the use of another scout.

I don't support the removal of Cloaks, but that's "Tanker's Logic".

TANKERS LOGIC

I hate the cloaker scouts myself but mostly for how devastating the SG is up close and how hard the buggers are to hit.
When facing a scout there are a few things i can figure out instantly. Like if they are using a kb/mouse and if they have a clue.
KB/mouse scouts that know what they are doing are dammed near impossible to kill they are like bouncing flying cat ninjas! they are just all over the dam place.
Even with my HMG at nearly point blank i am lucky to even hit them never mind take their shields down.
scouts using a controller even if they are experienced are much easier to hit and their movements far less erratic. Most of the time i can turn them into a pile of ooze.
Scouts that are newbs well they sometimes just stand there like a practice dummy.

You are a closed beta vet so you know all about ewar. What is you reason behind not speccing into cal scout in order to get more TACNET info and achieve greater awareness?

Huh? Are you serious?

How you can possibly tell who is using a MKB and who is using a DS3 by how they jump or how erratically they move is COMPLETELY beyond me, and I suspect you are simply projecting false logic to a problem of varied skill levels in your opponents.

The best five scouts I know all use DS3. In fact, I don't know of a A+ scout (or, frankly any top infantry slayer) that uses MKB. They might be out there -- and if anyone knows of one, please do correct me -- but I've not met them.

Have you used a MKB with Dust?

It's what I usually play with -- so please trust me when I tell you it's not MKB that you're seeing.
