According to what I've seen, Scouts have 5m Scan Radius and other suits have 2m.
I still think they should increase the Light Frame Scan Radius to 5m and the Scout to 7 or maybe even 10. |

There SHOULD be a difference between normal suits and Scouts. Preferably a difference between Small Frames and other suits, with Scouts getting a further buff, and Gallente Scouts getting even more thanks to the racial bonus. |

Would agree with the idea of ex. most suits 10m base, Light suits 15m base, racial Scouts 20m base, as it would provide a further reason to spec racial Scout. I'd prefer to see less of a buff than this, and more of a nerf to the other suits to make them look less like a Scout alternative.
Non-Light: 5m Basic Light: 10m Scout: 15m
This way, you're not pushing too close to Active Scanner range, but still giving an advantage to Scouts over other suits. You also have to consider that passive scanning is omnidirectional, Active Scanners are limited to a narrow scanning arc. |

I've just been considering this more lately, while also alternating pretty often between solo and squad-play.
...and I think I need an amendment to my previous statements.
7-10-15m radius AND Passive Scanners reveal targets to the whole team (like they did pre-Chromosome)... OR the suggested 10-15-20m radius if Passives remain limited to squad only/shared with other non-squadded players when you're not in a squad.
I'd prefer the former option, let our TACNET data be shared with the whole team. There's no logical reason why it would be limited to just your squad. All that encourages is splitting up and spreading out instead of staying together and working as a squad. |
