YEAH F*CK TEAMWORK!!!

HOW DARE PEOPLE ACTUALLY WORK TOGETHER!?

Using one suits strength to cover another's weakness isn't working together?

In Charlie, it will be very easy for almost every scout suit to dodge even Amarr passives. Boom, a counter. (Only exception a the STD Cal)

Just because you're scanned doesn't mean they automatically win. Counter with more teamwork.

And it still only applies to the squad, so 5 other people total.

I disagree with CCP's claim that active scanners should be more powerful than passives. Sure they have a limited angle and a cooldown, but it's still just one module slot. A dedicated scan scout fills at least half (3-4 or more of its 6 at proto) of its slots to be effective, sacrificing virtually all of its combat effectiveness to do so.

Without shared passives, scan scouts are devalued severely and teamwork as a whole takes a hit.

And what of scouts with no mics? You going to force them to get one?

I honestly dont see the problem with shared tacnet and passive scans, but then again I have been playing since EVERY THIS was on tacnet ALWAYS. I am guessing that all the complaints are coming from some version of this build:

Gallente scout--- Dampeners--- Shotgun

yes I get it you want to spend the entire match flanking and 2 shotting everyone with little to no risk of getting dead.
Crying nerf to your hard counter makes sense, hard to go 40-0 when one squad member on the other team has 300 eHP.

There is really not much sympathy coming from me when a gallente logi will do the same thing with 4 scanners in his equipment slots more effectively in Charlie with a much higher eHP. Yes active scanners need to be activated big deal you also get the annoying "you have been scanned" on your screen the entire match.

Tie active scans to suit precision, and you have a deal.

You don't care about Cal scouts so why would you care unless your a Gal logi and feel like your toes are walked upon by Cal scouts .

If people are being hunted down by a slow running massively weighted down heavy then they are officially a scrub .

Man up and pull your G-string out of your butts and lay off the shared scanning .

It's the only thing that a Cal scout have .

I swear that you people get bored and come up with the dumbest things to b!tch about .

If they can see you and the notification telling you that you are being scanned pops up , then it's time to find the one scanning or change locations .

This is why active scanners are horrible now but you people want no way to be detected like that's going to make you any better because if your complaining about shared scan , chances are your just a scrub anyway .

No I don't run Cal scouts , have them but I play Min logi with a scanner , a scanner that's kind of like $h!t from the last time people whined about active scanners .

Get gud scrubs .

I don't care about the players that you name , all prototype players who complain about passive scanners .
I know that you had to throw their names in there like that's calls for merit as to your opinion .

It doesn't , if players that have several tens of millions plus the same in their SP banks , while most of the community can't even fathom what that feels like but yet they still complain , then there is something wrong with that picture .

But you would be quick to tell anyone else to " Adapt or die ."

Players as such are killing the game for those who are just trying to get a foothold in this game , kill the fun because you like to stay at the top and try to push any and everybody off of any footing .

Let's just get rid of Tacnet , E-war and scanners all together so that everybody can fight head's up and that would make it more interesting .

You people have you clique's and such so name dropping means nothing to me , even more so when your trying to be EVE famous .

You people are killing this game with your random calls for nerfs , changes and buffs .

It doesn't matter anyway because you can all have this crap that will be legion soon enough and you can all be dysfunctional together , trying to be EVE famous .

I can't wait til they shut these servers down .

Most of you are worst than Buzz Killington .

You make calls for changes and don't have the gumption to allow SP refunds because you sit on a pile of unallocated SP's but you call the rest of the community to grind away while you laugh your way to the next FOTM .

Who's the scrub protecting what crutch ? First you kill active scanning by ranting / complaining and now you would love to kill the Cal scout .

Sad , just sad .

Skill up precision then?

I have Lvl 5 in all the passive 'scout' skills - my heavy can passive scan other suits quite well thx

im tired of this OP UP bullshlt, nerf this nerf that, buff this buff that, its the same people every time, the same people who ruined the content development for dumbass number tweeks. just play the fkn game, if your not asking for a content expansion STFU

Dampeners on a logi or assault would be nice, the problem is that lvl 5 gal scouts with one dampener, plates, Kincats, cloak and shotgun make it nearly mandatory to have someone full time scanning to stop the bloodbath. It's not uncharacteristic to see those cloaked flankers average 30 kills being invisible 90% of the time.

Removing cloaks would do more for making fewer people run multiple precision enhancers than removing shared scans. Then you would see more dampened assault's, logis, and heavies. But that is never going to happen. Instead we have invisible scouts that are also invisible on tacnet, one or two shotting you from behind, necessitating a squad mate to sacrifice most of their ehp for sensors, only to be met with cries for the nerf bat from the perpetually invisible shotgun flankers.

After active scanners were nerfed, shared tacnet became the only thing keeping dampened gal scouts in check, which has the side effect of making dampened medium suits a waste.

How would you fix this without having every match turn into " let's find one of the 16 cloaked gal scouts on the other team before they one shot me "... ?
