Just played an epic skirmish against a shedload of ballet dancing scouts, I swear 50% of their team were scouts! Could I shoot them? Could I hell!! Even point blank range with a shotgun they just pirouetted away, and filled my face with plasma discharge! Feckin Fairies!

I didn't know you were into fairies. But, I think they prob need antibiotics if they're filling your face with plasma discharge.  |

It's a symptom of the bad hit detection. Apparently CCP will be improving it substantially next build. Then, these people will die horribly and the game will advance. |

Best way to deal with these dancing scouts is smg with the sidearm sharpshooter skill trained up to lvl 4 at least. Keep some range between you and the scout and the bullet spread on the smg actually works to your advantage and compensates somewhat for the lag.

Mass Drivers work wonders :).....unless they bugout for the match
just "aim" at the ground somewhere near them and watch them panic.
edit: some matches the MD just doesnt work... i've had entire clips not explode...with both breach and normal MD |

I was shooting one with an smg yesterday, i couldnt hit him for kittens.
So i resorted to just spraying left and right across the screen, 1 on 1 he was on the extreme left of my screen , i was shooting literally meters away from him, but suddenly all my shots hit him and he died. either my bullets fly out the side of the gun, or there is something severly kittened about this builds shooting mechanincs. |

I rarely have trouble hitting anyone at any range, theres some ppl that can strafe very well but its my aim that fails me in those cases not the hit detection, you should check your latency to the server and see how much lag your dealing with, sometimes i do need to lag shoot a little to hit people, but thats on the rare event that i get dropped on the asia or us server. |

true, at least there's a chance to run away from a tank.
All kidding aside, the good scouts are the ones that will stay 5-10m from you and take advantage of hit detection by using strafe spam.
The nubs, are the ones that will try and straight up rush you, and get in your face to either knife or shoot at point blank. Those guys are easy. Just back pedal and hipfire as they rush you, once they are right in your face, jump fwd past them, 180 in air so you land facing them, and repeat the back pedal hipfire. They'll be dead in no time.
Edit: This is actually tough to do if you're using a heavy suit. |
