You could play with out the cloak. I (and many others) don't use it. Scouts managed just fine when the cloak didn't even exist.
Anyway, go back to preventing forest fires. I'm sure that's more fun than DUST.

Basic cloak is can't lock anyone, drastically reduced move speed, cannot warp, and there is a delay to locking after you decloak. The Covert Cloak moves you at 100% speed, no delay from decloaking to lock, and you can warp. However, the two games really need to be stopped as a comparison to each other. It is like asking Bloodlust in World of Warcraft to work exactly like Warcraft 3. Two different games, two entirely different genre.

This isn't quite true. Both cloaks have a delay to locking time after decloaking, even the covert variant. Stealth bombers have a bonus which removes this, though.
You have long since made your choice. What you make now is a mistake.

Cloak nerf breaks the class? You make it sound like Scouts were "broken" before cloaks even existed, yet there are many talented individuals who performed exceptionally well with Scouts long before they had the ability to cloak. So does a cloak nerf break the class? Or just break the crutch that you've been reliant on?

yes I was.. but after all the nerfs to compensate for the cloak.. no longer possible.. too many proto one shotters to go back... I have no scans! wtf good is a scout with no scans?
So your answer is to use no cloak... because you know damn well to use the cloak now.. is... just dumb... like you |

I would have rather seen sidearms only leaving all play styles open to the class between light and scout, but what ever there is currently a way to subvert the delay.. I am not positive how though.

No reason if you are using the Cloak as a tactical tool and not a silent delivery system for a shotgun this should impact your gameplay all that much.

Lol, scrub. It has only been a few months since the cloak was added and already we have people that don't know there was a time it didn't exist and we didn't need it?

From a non-scout perspective: un-cloak should not have animation, because people still see cloaked scout shooting at them.
From a scout perspective: i've learned to un-cloak a little before and the timing is almost fine, but the fix have a problem, sometime it does not change to weapon and you have to press again, that's annoying, but the timing is ok.
The greatest problem are for those who tank scouts, no more charging like bulls in front of the enemy, you can have a lot of HP but if the enemy see you, you are half dead, no more 99% chance of success. |

Anyways, peace out DUST.. you broke my heart Wait, are you QQing that you can't decloak and immediately instakill anyone with your shotgun anymore? Or is there a new nerf incoming?
Anyway, it took me a couple of matches to get used to the new 1 second decloak delay but now it doesn't bother me anymore.
The problem with scouts is that they have all the tools to easily overcome all of the shortcomings of the most powerful instakill weapons. And the new cloak delay makes it harder but did not overnerf it at all. REs, knives, and shotguns are still as useful to a scout as before.

Because Ill be playing a game that doesnt have the worst shooting mechanics of ANY first person shooter made..
I only played dust because it had some things that were not like other shooters.. Now its just point and click shooter like COD, with STUPID mechanics.. no straffing.. actually nothing original or fun left here.. moving on
and for the guy who put "1 second delay" was dead wrong.. I counted "1 thousand one.. 1 thousand 2 .. 1 thousand 3.. before the gun even shows up.. then half the time it wont shoot.. or shoots late..

Scouting before they were ultra-buffed and given the cloak was a lot more fun, now scouting feels dirty. Probably because I don't want to be lumped together with players like you who need/use the cloak as a crutch. Only time I can bring myself to break out my scout now is when I am chasing shield tanks with a PLC.
Your game f'ing sucks, but I'll still play it, damn you! Turns out I wont.

i believe theres a movement penalty and you cant fire while cloaked iirc. never used one. Depends on the cloak you have. Basic cloak is can't lock anyone, drastically reduced move speed, cannot warp, and there is a delay to locking after you decloak. The Covert Cloak moves you at 100% speed, no delay from decloaking to lock, and you can warp. However, the two games really need to be stopped as a comparison to each other. It is like asking Bloodlust in World of Warcraft to work exactly like Warcraft 3. Two different games, two entirely different genre. Wow that just blew my mind you are so right about dust eve comparison being like war craft 3 vs blood lust wow

But as everyone knows the biggest problem with the game is assault dropships of course. Now they're OP.
Well, the brick tanked scout does not have the same eHP, just similar, but your point still stands: scouts are still vastly superior to assaults.
To be honest, I don't get all the cry about the cloak. The cloak doesn't make the scout class OP IMO. Its the complete lack of effective counters to a scout's ewar capabilities that make it crazy OP. The only way to see anything more than a mildly dampened scout is to run a scout suit.
A logi with 4 complex precisions mods can't see a mildly dampened scout on their passive scans and logis have the best scan precision of the medium and heavy suits. Considering logis have base HP closer to scouts than assaults, the logi would likely have less HP than the scout.
Sneaking up on units that are engaged in a fire fight is easy to do if you do not show up on their passive scans. I've done it in an assault suit with no dampening modules, my dampening skill only at 4, and no cloak. Even though I was using non-OHK weapons like the flaylock/smg and my gun game is meh at best, I still could fairly consistently come out of matches with positive kdr.
Running a gal logi with active scans is not actually an effective counter because the cool down, and limited range leaves massive spatial and temporal holes and scouts get warnings when they are actually scanned. Active scans in non-gal logis are useless (I prevent scans in my logi suit with no dampening modules equipped; I evade simply because I have dampening to lvl 5).
So, all of this means that a gal or cal scout can run one dampening module and brick tank their HP to the lower HP range of an assault, and still not be seen. Amar/min scouts would need to run two complex dampening modules to be invisible, but if the logi ran only 2 complex dampening modules, one dampening module is enough. You'd be a fool to use your cloak when you are close to them because that is the only thing other than the kill screen that would alert a solitary player of your presence.
Two players? EITHER: OHK the first -> second player starts to react because they heard your shotgun/knives -> OHK the second, OR: drop 1-2 RE and OHK them both.
Three players? EITHER: Drop 1-2 REs and OHK them all, OR: OHK the first -> second and third player starts to react because they heard your shotgun/knives -> OHK the second -> use superior speed and small hit box to engage in a fire fight with the third or run away, OR: pull back -> wait for one of them to split from the group -> see steps for single player engagement.
Don't get me wrong here: there is still skill in delivering the OHK. However, the completely unbalanced ewar tips engagements massively in the scout's favour.

Three things I don't like.
1) That the proto cloak is necessary to max dampen.
2) The range nerf to cloak makes it more of a liability than a useful tool.
3) The "cloak delay" applies to any switch from cloak, EVEN IF THE CLOAK WAS NOT ACTIVE.
When you combine the first two, and you main a Minja, it is really a kick in the rusty nuts. If I could dampen enough without a cloak, I would drop it in a heartbeat.
The fact that ONLY the pro cloak can help you avoid scans means I HAVE to sacrifice a lot on all my fittings because of the fitting cost of that thing.
I HAVE to deal with the cloak delay, because though I would like to sneak up on people, I can't do it WITHOUT the cloak.
More and more I feel forced to skill into the Gal scout. It is the only suit that would allow me to continue the play style I had honed over year and a half I have been a Min scout.
Cloak nerfs have made the Gal scout a better Minja than Minmatar...

As a scout.
Awwww, I thought it was really being bumped up to a five second delay. For a second there I was happy that even more of those EZ-moding invisi-gankers were going to leave the class.
Scouts didn't -require- cloaks before, and they don't -require- them now, especially since they've been buffed by having more cpu/pg, better ewar, a second equipment, and an extra fitting slot.

"Lazily killing with no effort" is an apt description of HMG Heavies. Let's not pretend that this isn't a fact.
Perhaps high-HP Scouts have room for laziness and error, but low-HP Scouts get smashed if they make a mistake. We don't know what Smoky runs, but we do know that he mained Scout well before cloak, back when the suit was so underpowered that only a tiny percentage of players would touch it.
Smoky isn't among the scrubbery who migrated to Scout post 1.8; he ran Scout when running Scout was the hardest role one could run. I think it reasonable and appropriate that we hear what he has to say without jumping to conclusions or calling him lazy. |

Except you can get two shots off from the shotgun while cloaked now AND increase the decloak animation , further increase the cloak up time.
There are so many things gone wrong with this "fix" it's ridiculous.
Should've just put a fixed number for a delay instead of an increase on the animation. Not sure if it would require a patch or not, though, since you would be adding new mechanics to Dust. Actually, wait! Now that that I think about it, didn't the Plasma Cannon have a2 seconds fire delay right after firing by switching to sidearm? Remember that? That's what we wanted for the cloak. |

I agree that the fix could've been implemented differently.
0.00 sec - Decloak 0.01 sec - Decloak animation begins 0.50 sec - Decloak animation ends (fully visible) 1.00 sec - Weapon ready
(or)
0.00 sec - Decloak 0.01 sec - Decloak animation begins 0.75 sec - Decloak animation ends (fully visible) 1.50 sec - Weapon ready
* Or some such progression.
Guaranteeing that shooter is visible before shooting should put end to cloak QQ. I'd also like to see the weapon ready delay activate if and only if cloak is activated. |

For a little perspective, I'm someone who had played with scouts during precloak, when cloaks were first released, and currently an someone who respec'd into just Amarr scouts with 43M SP.
Honestly scout gameplay is the most fun it had ever been for me. The cloak is more of a transpotation tool rather than a killing tool, as it was intended. There's more risk reward choices with whether I want to patrol my own base cloaked or not because of scan range. Same with when I'm hacking. Also risk reward deciding how early I want to decloak because it does take time. Makes scout play a lit mute fun and rewarding in my opinion.

Agreed. Cloak should aid in escape and evade and provide a means by which to move from cover to cover or cross open terrain. I can't imagine that Cloak was ever intended to be a platform from which to launch a frontal assault.

This is the ONLY effective counter to a scout suit's ewar. The heavy suit's high HP and damage resistance has huge number of counters to it when running a HMG: - plasma cannon on any suit except a logi suit (on a commando this is an amazing counter) - any heavy suit with a HMG - any non-heavy suit with a range weapon out of a HMG's range (assuming - shotgun/knives on a scout suit - shotgun on any assault or commando suit - REs on any suit
And a scout's ewar has only one effective counter: - a squad member on each squad doing nothing but visually looking for a scout, which given the high HP of a tanked scout in many circumstances means them dying before they take out the scout and warning the squad members so they hopefully finish him off before he kills another squad member.
No tactic should have such limited counters. Ewar imbalance is more unbalanced than redline sniping. At least when someone redline snipes, I can counter snipe, or forge snipe. That is too few counters but it is still better than scout ewar.
Scouts should have to choose between having HP or being invisible. Currently they can have the best of both worlds. There are different ways of balancing this, but nerfing the cloak is not one of them.

If I given the current situation, if I were to even attempt to approach that situation, I would need to decloak, and be inactive long enough for Ghost to have turned around and gunned me down.
With EWAR so significantly tied to cloaks, it is much more than a risk/reward situation. I don't know who has what when entering an area. If I am lazy and assume that its all heavies and scouts with no precision, then I end up in a situation where everyone knows where my squishy suit is.
Not to mention the Min Assault that was able to take me out from 9 m away because I happened to run in front of him coming out of cover outside of any building or built up area.
I am damned if I do, damned if I don't. If I use cover because of how easily it is to spot "invisible" cloaked scouts, I limit my own field of view. If I use cover like I should, I have zero ability to avoid heavy/medium suits out and about. In fact, last time I was out transporting, I did it old school and did not activate my cloak, and took the very long route.
The ONLY thing it is good for is avoiding being lit up on someone's tacnet. For everything else I find it useless.

That 10% is what keeps me off of Amarr Scout scans and Gal Logi scans (I have yet to show "You have been scanned" so I am almost solely concerned with the Amarr scout at this point.)
The problem is, if there is a full squad, and one of those is the Amarr, all 6 know my position. If I don't dampen enough, and people use active scanners to light me up, that does no good.
I run 200 to 300 HP tops. I can be killed well outside the effective range of most weapons (particularly shotguns), and with a significant majority of fired shots my way missing.
I HAVE to be off tacnet, or I can do next to nothing (see Minja activity from Alpha to Charlie for reference).

One complex damp doesn't get MN or AM Scouts very far ... 24dB (or 22dB proto cloaked). As a point of reference, GA Logi w/proto scanner pings at 21 dB.
MN Scout needs 3 complex damps + proto cloak to beat GA Logi w/Focused Scanner. MN Scout needs 2 complex damps + proto cloak to beat AM Scout passives. |

Oh the QQ ! Clearly the OP hadn't heard of the term " adapt and overcome." If you're giving up dust please spare us on the "they nerfed my class now it's unplayable" thread and just delete your game.
Besides all that, cloaks are the newest piece of equipment, a true beta scout couldn't care less about the nerf, hell a real gamer couldn't care less because people that are truly good will always find a way to make any nerf or buff work for him/her.

Honestly scout gameplay is the most fun it had ever been for me. The cloak is more of a transpotation tool rather than a killing tool, as it was intended. There's more risk reward choices with whether I want to patrol my own base cloaked or not because of scan range. Same with when I'm hacking. Also risk reward deciding how early I want to decloak because it does take time. Makes scout play a lit mute fun and rewarding in my opinion. Not long ago, Ghost ran a heavy with an Amarr scout decked with precision mods in tow. If I given the current situation, if I were to even attempt to approach that situation, I would need to decloak, and be inactive long enough for Ghost to have turned around and gunned me down. With EWAR so significantly tied to cloaks, it is much more than a risk/reward situation. I don't know who has what when entering an area. If I am lazy and assume that its all heavies and scouts with no precision, then I end up in a situation where everyone knows where my squishy suit is. Not to mention the Min Assault that was able to take me out from 9 m away because I happened to run in front of him coming out of cover outside of any building or built up area. I am damned if I do, damned if I don't. If I use cover because of how easily it is to spot "invisible" cloaked scouts, I limit my own field of view. If I use cover like I should, I have zero ability to avoid heavy/medium suits out and about. In fact, last time I was out transporting, I did it old school and did not activate my cloak, and took the very long route. The ONLY thing it is good for is avoiding being lit up on someone's tacnet.

Fair enough, but once a tool is implemented for killing isn't it up to the user to choose how they want to apply it?

Absolutely, so long as said implementation and application do not create unintended problems.
Consider how broken the "support role" was following Uprising 1.0. Consider how HAVs ruined every match on every server following 1.7. Consider how hard we spammed TacNet invisible, 800HP GalScouts after 1.8.
Sometimes the Devs make mistakes. Users always find and capitalize upon those mistakes. Thankfully, CCP doesn't listen to us when we point to a Dev Blog and say "imbalance has to be perpetuated because you said ...".
If they did, we'd all still be stuck playing World of Tanks. |

Turn on auto aim. It pulls your crosshair onto any scout in the game, cloaked or not, and lets you puns shots into them, whether your aim is good or not.

Scout pre 1.8 needed only a buff to their dampening skills and the 2nd equip slot and they'd have been fine.
The good scouts were beasts...and the bad scouts were bad.
It wasn't easy mode slayer logi's...but they performed soundly and they had a much better time in PC than commando's.

This guy still going?
Not to beat a dead horse or anything, but as so many people have told you, a cloak is not an offensive tool. And you certainly shouldn't be using it so you can one shot people with a shotty from 700 eHP PRO Scout (which is more eHP than my Min Assault)
Trying using it for tactical manoeuvring. When ever you get made holding a Sniper Rifle For repositioning on a vehicle when holding a Swarm Launcher For covertly dropping uplinks to set up flanks for your team For using scanners to watch the enemy team without being seen.
Scouts aren't designed for the front line, the big fight going on over the middle point. Scouts are designed to be manipulating there team's strategy, turning the blueberry horde into elite squad. At most a Scout might forgo a cloak in order to work closer to the battle for taking out high value targets, but you should not be doing the assaults job.

False? Please.
Note the language I used: "managed," a word that carries with it certain connotations that I don't feel like explaining. "Managing just fine" is not high praise.
Anyway, myself and many others managed "just fine" when the cloak did not exist. It seems that YOU were one of those that didn't. A pity, to be sure.

Well scouts certainly ARE op, but I agree the cloak nerf was pretty dumb.
The only people whining about getting killed by cloaked scouts were either using black and white era TVs or playing with very dark sunglasses on.

Yes the scout should be feared like any other suit in the game This is the ONLY effective counter to a scout suit's ewar. The heavy suit's high HP and damage resistance has huge number of counters to it when running a HMG: - plasma cannon on any suit except a logi suit (on a commando this is an amazing counter) - any heavy suit with a HMG - any non-heavy suit with a range weapon out of a HMG's range (assuming - shotgun/knives on a scout suit - shotgun on any assault or commando suit - REs on any suit And a scout's ewar has only one effective counter: - a squad member on each squad doing nothing but visually looking for a scout, which given the high HP of a tanked scout in many circumstances means them dying before they take out the scout and warning the squad members so they hopefully finish him off before he kills another squad member. No tactic should have such limited counters. Ewar imbalance is more unbalanced than redline sniping. At least when someone redline snipes, I can counter snipe, or forge snipe. That is too few counters but it is still better than scout ewar. Scouts should have to choose between having HP or being invisible. Currently they can have the best of both worlds. There are different ways of balancing this, but nerfing the cloak is not one of them. How? I can only get 390ehp with 2 damps on my gal scout. But i see 600ehp cal and gal scout everywhere

I don't really mind the change. It forces an interesting choice on players. You can drop cloak in anticipation of firing or you can stay invisible, but might not be ready to engage. The delay is small enough that it easy to compensate for, but you actually have to think about it a little bit.

The thing is :
We have now 2 new things that affect negatively the cloak A 2 second (approx) DELAY while decloaking A 3 second (approx) delay while changing to a weapon/item
One of them needs to be removed.

Invisible people who can 1-2HK you almost while still invisible is not balanced.
Maybe lrn2plan.
Then you can kill the straggler who doesn't see you, or flank a squad of engaged guys.
Decloaking in front of people and trying to blap them w/ you shotty doesn't work no more. Sorry.
Because you wanted to be something you're not.

Im a SCOUT too.
You people can do what i do!
thats it.
I almost never use the cloak anymore as i used to but its STILL a useful tool to have there equipped.
For example an incoming squad of people you cant defeat (like 3 sentinels and 3 logis, you should know better) or while running out in the open...
OR just not equippit at all, E-war is more than enough to b a good scout.
Still, i AGREE the cloak nerf is a over nerf

One of them needs to be removed. One of them needs to work first. The only weapons affected by it are the Caldari weapons because they require charge/lock-on and all the extended decloaking time does is give someone with the other weapons that's smart enough to tap R1 more time to shoot while cloaked.

Anyway, go back to preventing forest fires. I'm sure that's more fun than DUST.
I agree scouts never needed cloaking to begin with. I cant see them anyway when they are cloaked and running. I tried all sorts of setting on my tv just to try and be able to see the shimmer but nothing works. So either make a cloaked scout having a outline thats running or just get rid of it entirly. |

Caldari weapons are the only ones that can't fire while cloaked (unless they fixed it so the other ones can't either, in the past few of days?). It's a huge issue because that's why the cloak was "nerfed" in the first place (scan reduction does work as far as I know, so there's one thing that worked but that was never really an issue).

I'm not using the cloak often, mostly only when I have to face pubstompers and the map don't let me sneak upon them without the cloak.
but I think it would be nice if it had a function (maybe a button to press) were it would give you your scanrange back for a few seconds (maybe for the cost of a big chunk of the cloak-meter...or that you can't decloak for 5 seconds after you pressed that button) so I can flee or evade the attackers behind me better after I killed one of their squadmates in their 6 man gang r8pe squad. atm I have to run blindly away from them without knowing if they know which route I took or if they know my current direction...turning simply around could be an option but results most times in a storm of RR/ACR/BrAR bullets... |

Scouts shouldn't have been nerfed this much Situational awareness?!? I don't call having to have someone on your squad do nothing but look out for scouts situational awareness. Yes the scout should be feared like any other suit in the game This is the ONLY effective counter to a scout suit's ewar. The heavy suit's high HP and damage resistance has huge number of counters to it when running a HMG: - plasma cannon on any suit except a logi suit (on a commando this is an amazing counter) - any heavy suit with a HMG - any non-heavy suit with a range weapon out of a HMG's range (assuming - shotgun/knives on a scout suit - shotgun on any assault or commando suit - REs on any suit And a scout's ewar has only one effective counter: - a squad member on each squad doing nothing but visually looking for a scout, which given the high HP of a tanked scout in many circumstances means them dying before they take out the scout and warning the squad members so they hopefully finish him off before he kills another squad member. No tactic should have such limited counters. Ewar imbalance is more unbalanced than redline sniping. At least when someone redline snipes, I can counter snipe, or forge snipe. That is too few counters but it is still better than scout ewar. Scouts should have to choose between having HP or being invisible. Currently they can have the best of both worlds. There are different ways of balancing this, but nerfing the cloak is not one of them. stop talking about scouts ewar like you know something.. Have you tried on a Gallente scout lately? I get NO SCANS buddy.. NONE.. you can walk up behind me with a heavy and I wont see you.. Hence the stupid nerfs that were done to balance scouts having cloaks.. now we have no cloaks and **** pooor balancing |

Forums always dumping on scouts because Theres no one representing them. Not enuff real scouts to play the game much less post here.. You can keep following Every whim of the forum warriorncall of booty hos. Or you can use a little fukn common sense... This game was better the day it came out then it is now.. You can't just keep breaking mechanics and calling it a Nerf.. Sad and pathetic no skill having programmers that decided that breaking the cloak mechanic was ok.. Same thing with the mass driver ..swarm launcher. Hey CCP wake up before free to play Tetris comes out and puts you out of business.. Clowns |

Forums always dumping on scouts because Theres no one representing them. Not enuff real scouts to play the game much less post here.. You can keep following Every whim of the forum warriorncall of booty hos. Or you can use a little fukn common sense... This game was better the day it came out then it is now.. You can't just keep breaking mechanics and calling it a Nerf.. Sad and pathetic no skill having programmers that decided that breaking the cloak mechanic was ok.. Same thing with the mass driver ..swarm launcher. Hey CCP wake up before free to play Tetris comes out and puts you out of business.. Clowns |

Not really, but it is rather close to true. I respect them for going through what we go through (to a lesser extent) and not complaining. Although, in the Scout's defense, it is perfectly just to be angry of a Scout nerf, or role inequality.

Just wanted to chime in here-
I liked the cloak when it was first released. Went immediately proto.
I basically exclusively knifed. The cloak, even at its best, was not good for knifing. It was clumsy. I tried the cloak for one match after it was nerfed the first time to make you tacnet blind. It isn't that I care to see other players on the tacnet, it is that I couldn't see enemy spawn/EQ with it. Thus, to me, it became useless as ****. And now it is absolutely dumb to use.
But hey, I didn't care. I just like to stab fattys to death. I don't even charge. I love slicing them more than once. If a cloak was useful, I would use it. It isn't and I still kill like I always did.
disclaimer: I played one match in echo. Before that nothing since around the time blind cloak was intro'd. There's just better shoit to do than dust. Plus.. I don't set up an atari 2600 just like I don't look to set up my old ass PS3. I don't use windows 98 either.
It's 2015. PS4 launched over a year ago.

Both cloaks have a delay to locking time after decloaking, even the covert variant. Stealth bombers have a bonus which removes this, though. Yes, that's a role bonus of one specific ship. All other ships that use Covert Ops cloaks have to wait through a 5 second targeting delay.

If u cant find a use that's sad a buddy of mine runs cal scout in city environment and runs cloak n scanner for points he sees everything. Gal scouts can walk right past enemys completly undetected lay links n nobody knows hes there or will due to dampening. Min scouts hack at ridiculous speeds one match his team quit but he ran around huge map n hacked everything withins a few seconds. As for amar scout ...umm well they try lol sadly haven't seen any. Their name is scout for a reason. They can traverse map no matter how well enemys camps cloak still helps great deal u just wanna abuse |

I still remember those names and some that you guys might not know of...
I've been using this scout class before cloak was implemented. I'm not a slayer type, but a support type. Mostly I do recon, relay info on my team and take out those lonely redberries. I also do logistic roles, i have a min logi suit and I apply my recon skills on it too.
Just my two cents, even though they hammered down the scout class. I'm still going to use it and that's because I enjoy playing the role of a scout. So enjoy the game and have fun knifing your foes.

Yes it is a nerf, i can vouch to that.
Just my opinion, the once that you see still playing scouts are the hardcore ones (not all but some). I mean we don't have passive scans, so it's more like they really know how to scout without the e-war stuff. and scouts are pretty squishy or it's just me using modules and not tanking it

Imagine what all of us fat boys have went through because of a bunch of whiny ass scouts, think about it do you own any real weapons if you do you know a shotgun doesn't even come close to out ranging a 30 cal hmg but in new eden it does along with everything else. The assault hmg had alright range with almost no damage now it has all the damage but no accuracy so it's still a joke the fastest man in the world can't run between bullets but every scout on the game runs between them now as well as most assaults. So I say nerf 'em too. Even the Klingon's had to decloak before they shot at the Enterprise why shouldn't you? |

Go look up the definition of the word scout.
You could do something crazy, like I don't know... Joining a squad and... scouting for them? Maybe hack a point and toss an uplink?
Honestly, I think scouts should only have two side arms, be glad I'm not the one working on things at CCP.

Knowing whether 3 heavies or 3 starter fits are holding a position is one reason.
Scouts can also travel much faster unsupported.

With a cloaked scout you can't even tell whether or not there are enemies within a 10 foot radius. If you're lucky you'll get a 40m radius if you uncloak and enemies don't see and destroy your paper thin suit. Active scans still have directionals so it won't even matter what they are, you can go around the enemy because you know exactly how they're oriented.
You don't need too much mobility when your scans reach 100+ meters out, not to mention proper logies never leave the squad radius so unsupported isn't a loss on the logi front.
Again what are the benefits? I couldn't find them in the analogical reasoning that fails to account for the benefit of both suits.

The 'scouts are paper thin" argument really holds no water when your asking ppl to shoot at scouts that have improved mobility thanks to myo modules along with lower hit boxes that are calculated. Scouts will typically loose out on a straight gun fight if there is no terrain to their advantage but most scouts typically avoid a straight shoot-out that they can't seem use to their benefit in closing the range or terrain.
Yes I can see your scout from afar "sometimes", at the same rate my scanners don't always pick you up. Likewise even if I see you from afar, it's 100% possible to literally move a dozen or so meters left/right and a player is now forced to ask if the scout actually left or will they pop up with a nova knife or shotgun in 8 seconds so you may need to walk dozens of meters needing to watch your front and back.
Yes i don't know any other suit that has this "so-called problem". Also don't give me the "omgz wtf bbq yo scouts have been nerfed from day 1" as they were given an extra slot just for their friggin cloaks. So yeah nerf grenades, yea and nerf logi with the whole speed and useless class bonuses. At the end of the day scouts have it so hard and that's why it's one of the most common fits run because it's just SOOO BAAD...

Gemini Cuspid wrote:The 'scouts are paper thin" argument really holds no water when your asking ppl to shoot at scouts that have improved mobility thanks to myo modules along with lower hit boxes that are calculated. Scouts will typically loose out on a straight gun fight if there is no terrain to their advantage but most scouts typically avoid a straight shoot-out that they can't seem use to their benefit in closing the range or terrain.
No it does, any good scout will use mainly e-war, or at least that's what was meant to be. There's nothing prevent a scout from brick tanking and being a slayer other than that assault suits do a better job of it now. The scout role is currently f*cked because rather than nerfing tanking on scouts, or making e-war slot intensive ratatati decided to make E-war a thing that takes up x more amount of slots than an active scanner and make it worse than the active scanner no matter how much E-war you stack.
Gemini Cuspid wrote: Yes I can see your scout from afar "sometimes", at the same rate my scanners don't always pick you up. Likewise even if I see you from afar, it's 100% possible to literally move a dozen or so meters left/right and a player is now forced to ask if the scout actually left or will they pop up with a nova knife or shotgun in 8 seconds so you may need to walk dozens of meters needing to watch your front and back.
The time it takes for a scout suit to go down is significantly less than any other suit, even if you get ambushed by one it isn't an issue to dispatch with half decent aim.

Go look up the definition of the word scout.
You could do something crazy, like I don't know... Joining a squad and... scouting for them? Maybe hack a point and toss an uplink?
Honestly, I think scouts should only have two side arms, be glad I'm not the one working on things at CCP.
So shouldn't a scout class have scans? We have none left.. What about camps? They took that too.. Literally NoO passive scans .. A heavy can walk up behind any advanced scout without being seen.. And I'm being picked up by passive scans from both assault and logos before they show on mine...
So yo take everything that defines the class.. Then you Nerf damage.. And make it fukn stupid to even try to pull out a weapon.. What's left? Answer..just me ..
And anyone claiming that they just pull out their fun 5 seconds early isn't a real scout.. That works less than half the time.. Far less.. Ever been surprised in your no ewar scout? Surrounded? Any # of other scenarios make that a load of crap that COBooty fans might think is plausible.

The short delay was fine.
This, meanwhile, makes cloaks more of a liability to use. They don't conceal you very well, so people WILL notice you; when they do, you'll be defenseless due to the length of the delay.

you cant fire while cloaked iirc cause you cant lock anything. i think theres a penalty on fancy cloaks that slow down your targeting so you take longer to attack. just looked it up on eve uni. if this is update it explains why you have to wait a few seconds in dust. its fair since how thats how they worked in eve. never used one.
99% of the time you have a targeting recalibration delay. Different covert ops capable ships get different target lock time bonuses. If I recall correctly the Stealth Bomber is the only ship that can instantly lock and shoot after decloaking.
If there is any change that is going to be implemented to cloaking delay it probably would be bonuses to certain scout suits.

1. Extra fitting capacity. 2. Extra equipment. 3. No delay. 4. We can see the cloak blur plain as day anyway. 5. When playing the min scout, my non-cloaked fit vastly out performs the cloaked one. 6. The cloak is a utility designed for stealth that is almost exclusive to the scout. Try using it for escaping/hacking and crossing open ground.
Scouts are not broken. Far from it actually. They just feel less unique now that the assault/logi can out maneuver them with myofibs, and the sentinel sneaking up is common.

Not if you're sneaky.
Try standing off to the side, on the extreme edge of hack range. Often had people shot right at the console and missed me. Then they spray all over till they find me.
By then, I'm normally done.
Smart people throw grenades at objectives that have a cloak on them.

Yea this counters my AFG overwatch on objectives sometimes. The splash raidus isn't big enough to completely overwatch it and that requires 2 shots from me if thats the case. By then the objective is already hacked.

You're right people who are better known are obviously better. I mean they just correlate so well together, that's why everyone knows Justin Beiber is a better artist than Paul McCartney right?
He's better known so the answer by your logic is Justin is exceedingly better, it's a universal truth bruuh...

You're right people who are better known are obviously better. I mean they just correlate so well together, that's why everyone knows Justin Beiber is a better artist than Paul McCartney right? He's better known so the answer by your logic is Justin is exceedingly better, it's a universal truth bruuh... However Mustard was known for being a badass scout.....he just was better than the majority of other players at what he did.

Given what he accomplished with the officer knives event, I would suggest he was better than all of the other players at what he did.

Hold it right there. No, having an officer weapon doesn't say anything about being the best at anything, it just so happened that spent x amount of time playing with only one weapon for a weekend. Officer weapons equate to the in best, in the same way that the Grammies equate to good music.

If you think that in your best games with militia knives you could kill as many people as he did over the same period, you are probably over estimating your knifing skills.

I might be able to who knows, who cares? It'd be very presumptuous of anyone to believe that just because a player had the most kills in a weekend with a certain weapon, even at militia tier, that they are the best at it.
Not everyone participated
Not everyone had the the ability to at the time
Not everyone cared
There are a plethora of reasons why someone better didn't get an officer weapon named. It will never equate because there are too many factors to account for, so rather than being arrogant and making bold claims like "espeon bons is the best shotgunner in the game." I'd rather say things I know to be true,
"The gravitaional constant on the earth surface is 9.8 m/s^s." "Moody was better." "Slippery slopes are silly." etc.

Of course not. There is plenty of unsung heroes ya foo.
I just support Moody and musturd because not only did I play with them and know what they do best, But others did as well. Good friends to have.

I've been here since Closed Beta and have suffered many stupid nerfs but this is the worst by far. Who's idea was this anyways? Call of Booty crowd that runs this game now? mindless assault drones?
First, The problem with being able to shoot from inside cloak was NEVER MORE THAN A VISUAL LAG GLITCH.. which STILL remains the exact same.. But now I have to wait 5 seconds for you to NOT SEE ME pull out my shotty.. This is a scout ending and incredibly STUPID thing to do to my class..
O well, I knew this type of insanity was in the pipeline, but I wont be here to tolerate it.. Im giving up my 40 million SP's and my character because its just downright UNPLAYABLE now.. thanks CCP.
Tryhard call of booty forum warriors need to realize one thing.. Scouts are not OP.. they are simply better players than you.. Fast twitch players enjoy mobility and will sacrifice just about anything to get it.. Pure and simple.. sorry to break the truth..
Anyways, peace out DUST.. you broke my heart I agree with part of this and I agree the 5 seconds really messed me up for a while. It wasn't to much to cripple scouts. I ha had to learn to time the decloak it adds a little more skill lol to get the timing perfect and shotty before you get killed by every1 else with RRs. But the laggy shots that have come with the new update is just terrible and needs to be fixed for sure. When I shoot a heavy and it gives a FPS drop is the most annoying thing right now. If they gave an option to turn off the moods and extra graphics I think it would help a lot.

From a scout perspective: i've learned to un-cloak a little before and the timing is almost fine, but the fix have a problem, sometime it does not change to weapon and you have to press again, that's annoying, but the timing is ok.
The greatest problem are for those who tank scouts, no more charging like bulls in front of the enemy, you can have a lot of HP but if the enemy see you, you are half dead, no more 99% chance of success.
People who say the learned to uncloak earlier are either not scouts or just trying to look tuff.. That only works if you are following somebody.. Which is less than 30% of all situations we find ourselves in.. |
