Side to side movement must be slowed down.

Scout hitbox needs fixing, and we're all already aware of this. You better be careful talking about movement nerfs, 'cause you'll get jumped on pretty damn quick.

Neo from The matrix must have been wearing one of Dust 514's scout suits.

The speed is fine. I just wish CCP didn't let Dust become another fps where bunny hopping is a viable means of dodging bullets.

Hey scrub muffin, once hit detection is fixed, strafe speed will need to be raised.

LOL, no it won't. Strafing speed is absolutely terrible. They should slow it down or add a 40% chance that you'll fall over and temporarily not be able to shoot.

One of the 2 things I mainly play as is a scout with a shotgun- if you attack us at range, we're screwed because we die from slight taps.

If only. I have shot scouts at range many, many times and the shot, despite being properly aimed generating a shield flash, does zero damage. The only way I can somewhat reliably kill a moving scout is if they're moving mostly away or toward me. If they're traversing, it's a crap shoot. So it's not just strafing in people's face. In fact, it isn't even a moving issue entirely. Many times I've shot enemy snipers who are in scout suits and they do not die. Guys who're not moving, who're just sitting there shooting, and they'll take repeated hits and no damage will be incurred.

Seriously, when hit detection gets fixed, all of you people using scout suits are in for a huge surprise. I don't think you realize just how big an advantage the broken hit detection gives you.

Sounds to me like you suck. Most of the time, unless I manage to catch someone by surprise, I either die or nearly die.

Actually, sounds like you suck. In the few times I put on a scout suit, I can go toe -to-toe with anybody. You just have to stay on the move. In CQC, with a shotty, I can go heads up against 2-3 ppl.

Hahaha I like that. Watching someone dodging left and right, "dancing" while shooting at you is as dumb as these fucks in here saying they are good.

Seems to me you got killed by us Scout shotgunners a bit too many times, mate. We're fragile, we die easily. Get good & kill us good.

Hey guys, scouts should use their speed to their advantage.

Um, can we nerf scout speed, they seem to be using it to their advantage.

Kthxby.

I think that sideways and backwards movement should be slower than forward movement. This is just common sense.

why not heavies had their armor nerfed

Scouts have terrible hit detection even at long range. Up close when they're strafing it's especially bad, but whether they're moving or totally still you will find them 100% immune to damage a significant portion of the time.

This isn't "QQ about broken scouts". This is pointing out a legitimately broken/bugged aspect of the game. No offense, but if you don't realize that scouts are this broken you have not been paying attention.

So you're saying all those snipers I sniped aren't scouts because I hit them?

Running Assaults and Scouts (75%/25%). I described my own experience from both ends. Works for me. But no, sure, let's make everybody into a Heavy, nerfing is fun.

Hits not registering is lag, not "broken scout hitbox". On low lag I can hunt Scouts no problem and drop on people using my Scouts. With lag even shotgun-to-the-face does not register, nevermind against which enemy model. Most of the bawling babies have no clue about weapon range, shooting moving targets or aiming in the soft spots, so they will cry about hit detection and broken scouts. Sure, it sometimes happens that due to lag you see shield flashes and nothing registers, but by the amount of QQ here I'd assume that nothing can be shot and that Scouts are indestructible. If they are -- why not spec into Scout? Or drive a tank, they seem to be well off now.

Really? Exactly 75% and 25%, huh?

And what are you talking about? Don't freak out because people suggest may scout strafing is too effective. Nobody here suggested every be given the speed of heavy suits.

No, it isn't lag in my experience. If I shoot a scout that doesn't die, I'll switch targets and kill someone else. If you give it a few seconds, eventually the scout will be vulnerable to shots.

I rarely if ever seem to have this issue with logistics or assault suits. Heavy suits seem to be a bit iffy, albeit to a lesser extent than scouts.

The rest of your comments were pretty childish, so I'll leave you to them.

I was broke and started doing this with a free militia shotgun, its kinda odd, sometimes i can dance abuot a tiny little bit and no one can hit me, other times even rapid movements seem to have no effect, maybe its a latency issue, with some people seeing relativley smoove movement, and other seeing massive jerky jumps back and forth.

Also using a shotgun point blank you really get to see the weird hit detection, even right next to someone i have to point waaay ahead of the target to score a hit

All Im reading is "no your wrong, CCP needs to listen to me"

Guys, guys...
The only real problem with scout lateral movement is it's so hard to hit them with my Gunnlogi while they circle around me like annoying mosquito.
