So, tired of this, i've changed suit with my sentinel + burst hmg, melted him and i've never seen him for the rest of the game.
This crutch vs crutch game mode is horrible.
- Scouts are the counter to Heavies.
- Commandos are Heavies, but have far less health than Sentinels.
- It must suck to encounter a Scout as a Commando.
- DonGÇÖt assume that a Burst HMG will save you. A good Scout will time their strafing to your Bursts.
Edit: Also, if a Scout seeing me on his radar is called GÇ£Wall HackingGÇ¥, what is it called when I mow down a Cloaked Scout because he thought I could not see him and was not bothering to strafe?
Scouts are supposed to be suits that can avoid heavier frames, provide intel, hack objectives quickly and get out. They are not supposed to be the counter to heavies, nothing is supposed to counter heavies in CQC. Heavies are supposed to be countered with ranged weapons.
Scouts are only the counters to heavies because they are broken / OP right now.
How do you kill that which has no life?

Scouts are supposed to be suits that can avoid heavier frames, provide intel, hack objectives quickly and get out. They are not supposed to be the counter to heavies, nothing is supposed to counter heavies in CQC. Heavies are supposed to be countered with longer ranged weapons. Scouts are only the counters to heavies because they are broken / OP right now. You are an idiot. Scouts are and always have been the non-heavy counter to heavies. That's why scouts excel at high alpha weapons, you know shotguns, knives and remote explosives. The speed and stealth allows scouts to use these short range high alpha weapons to quickly kill fat suits. I would also like to point out that if a scout kills a heavy in cqc with a different weapon than the one listed than that means he got the jump on you or you are a terrible player. You have the most hp, resistance and the most op death dealing gun in the game. Be aware of your surroundings and learn how to shoot a strafing scout.
Please avoid resorting to name calling, I know your arguments are tenuous at best, but flinging insults around does nothing to help prove your point.
BTW, I hardly ever run heavies, I run a minmatar logi 90% of the time and use the other suits to change it up once in a while.
Scouts are broken right now, just like the logi was, tanks were, murder taxis, etc... Small nerfs to Scouts are needed and hopefully CCP will continue addressing this in upcoming hotfixes.
Enjoy your OP fit while it lasts, the nerf bat will hopefully be here soon enough.
