They're the piranhas of the Galaxy, quick and deadly. They're small shape makes them hard to shoot, and they pack some serious heat, with Shotguns, SMG's, Mass drivers - hell they dangerous with any weapon! Chances are your like me and empty a clip on their ass, but somehow they managed to dodge it are are still firing at you! If you ever find yourself going head to head with one, here's my survival strategy!
RUN FOR YOUR ****ING LIFE - Don't stand still even if your trying to reload. It'll be no good when your dead. Sprint away from them but DO NOT run in a straight line. The bullets will just hit you as if you were standing still.
RUN IN CIRCLES, ZIG ZAG, OR ANY OTHER WAY! - This will distract your crazy killer, while they empty a clip on you but (hopefully) miss you. Switch directions that you run in, so that they can't guess where your going next.
TRY to SWITCH WEAPONS - If you have a secondary. Try sprinting around and you'll see you can switch weapons while sprinting. Keep it ready when being chased by your enemy.....
WAIT FOR THE MOMENT AND STRIKE! If your running has kept you alive long enough, you'll have time to reload, switch weapons, or charge your enemy. Wait for them to reload then shoot, you'll at least have a chance for a another round of shooting at each other.
DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO SURVIVE OR GET HELP! This is a last resort thing, when you know your gonna die, so charge them and knife. Go kamikaze, cook a grenade and run right at them. Hope your team finds you and helps. Remember that you'll run into tons of bad situations in this game and life - it's what you make of it that matters!  
Post your ideas on how to survive scouts as well! We all could use them! |

This is very helpful. Usually, when I see a scout, I think "Yay, weak armour!" But then I end up getitng killed by him... |

Or you can pillar hump like a pro, force them into a choke point where their mobility is decreased, robbing them of their advantage... |

Scout suits are fine - Hit detection is terrible. |

ahahaha...im a dropsuit ninja killer..and ill go ahead and say that heavy suits players kill me the most..also people throwing gernades as a last resort. The scout armor really is weak..just learn to aim at us is all..aim ahead of our sprint path so we run into the bullets...oh and im a medic..so if you happen to see me the above tips that will work are to just go ahead and hope you have a teammate near you :) |

Lol, this is pretty funny to see, as I like to run a Scout suit myself and all these pointers are fairly true and/or universal from different points of view.
But I have a pointer you might want to add: Whenever a scout suit jumps [or any suit for that matter], predict where they will land, aim, and start shooting. If you are lucky, your bullets will come into contact by the time they land, and either weaken or kill them. |

I'd like to use an assault or even logistics dropsuit but I'm a KB/M user and the turnspeed of all other dropsuits but the scout one is too damn low. And I don't know if it is due to hitdetection / lag but I have no problems fighting assault dropsuit players in a full frontal assault.
Hitting them with my tactical AR until I'm out of ammunition then switch to the submachinegun and start the kitten waltz.
I should have died so many times... |

About the only time a dude in a scout suit can really kill me is when they get the drop on me, otherwise i know i have made a few people made when i kill them. One reason i stopped using a breach AR, it didnt fire fast enough.
Also i think the scout suits should have a longer recharge time on there shields. They can come at you and all either one i able to do it kill shields, they scout will be back at 100% before the 10 second delay kicks in for every other suit. The delay also start timing down when you stop taking damage, ive noticed the scouts suit regenerating shield while im shooting at them. |

Ah well one must try new things. Namely tanks ...ow thats a good counter to a scout too.
Edit: ow and as an x scout vet I can say the only chance you have is friends or going nutz with a nova knife. |
