Generally speaking you're dead before a heavy shows up on your assault passive scans. The range is only 15m with Range Amplification level 5, with the lag that means that if one of you is moving it will be less than 10m before anything shows up, which probably means you're already looking down their multiple barrels. Use your eyes or go back to your scout (or even a logi, which has longer scan range than an assault). |

1) If you're outside any surface installation the ground is a static mesh, passive scans do not see through that. so if you were within 15m of each other but on oposite sides of a small hill they will not appear.
2) they were outside 15m. 15m is a lot shorter because the scaling of game has dropsuits around 2.5m tall where the average person is like 1.75m tall. 15m is visually closer to what 10 yards would be
Are you trying to tell me scouts DON'T see through walls? I call BS. Or is it just related to terrain and elevation?
You see through walls, you don't see through hills. |

The scouts I Flaylocked that tried to sneak up on me while I was sniping on a hill, would agree that this statment is 100% false. I wasn't even running precision enhancers, & I saw both scouts approaching up the hill on my Tacnet. My Ewar Gal scout can easily spot all but stacked dampened scouts within 50m, regardless of elevation or terrain. The surface of the hill is the bottom of the map so scans do not go through. Field tested hundreds of times, its just how it works brah. |
