95% of my time is in a Dragonfly... with 1300+ kills. I'll pop a logi on some maps to drop uplinks before letting out the Dragonfly... |

Sigh, I'm travelling this week... so no PS3... so no DUST... so no new kills for me. All I can do is troll in the forums. |

Nice, I can't play for a few more days but I see the stats have gotten richer. Awesome effort on this... and I'll chime in as well... I don't care how much changes in the game I'm sticking with my scout come hell or high water.
If I want to play something else for variety I'll use an alt and take the penalty that comes from having to skill into it from scratch. |

Maybe they could buff sniping in a scout suit? You know... longer range... less recoil/recovery on firing... longer rendering when scoped.
If snipers are supposed to be scouts somebody is going about this the wrong way.
However, I have noticed that it's getting harder to counter snipe. These semi-heavy suits sitting on top of the world take a shot or two to the head at times and still don't go down.
How about we consider medium and heavy suits too amped, to heavy, to be subtle enough to allow for fine aiming and control or something. There really should be some benefit to giving up all our eHP other than being able to run around until someone spots us. What's our niche? |

I came close to "taking a break" yesterday.
Instead, I'll do two things...
1 - Figure out if I was just tired and suffering from jet lag as the fun factor was sucking hard. 2 - Play at a safer range for scout sniping -- whether people like it or not.
I might also stop worrying about trying to drop uplinks, switching to swarms, and then later getting into nanohives for the long haul. Trying to do too many things makes it feel like work.
Edit: Damn, it's going take 1.2m SP to get that gallente scout to 5! |

I think the "destroy all the installations" pushed me over the edge. However, it looks like I've come back just in time for an update... ;)
Anyhow, reading back a bit I see there is/was a category for scout snipers. I snipe so much I'm in my own one person sniper corp -- no really, I am! ;)
Here's hoping the update, and a little more SP, makes things a bit more fun. |

I, for one, am not going to be taking bets on what you do, or others do, with your butt. |

A few thoughts on range:
- There is unscoped versus scoped... perhaps use a ratio of worst scan precision to precision worn for adjusts?
- I do think people should be able to see further than their weapon range. It's useful. |

Wow, a lot of crappy people in factional.
I can run a scout sniper, make suicide runs for objectives, hack and die or kill off an unlucky guy who gets to see "killed by toxin", drop a few uplinks, and score near the top of the list.
Sadly, the rest of the blues are huddled around giving each other back rubs or something and don't bother coming out of hiding until they see some crazy fool running around actually doing something. |

I've taken out a Thales once in a while recently. Nice, it's like a different game.
I'm going to get hooked and then I'm going to run out of them... :( |

I'm having a hell of a blast with the 100m 20s scanner. I can get in places where nobody can find me and scan the objectives the whole damned match.
Hahahahahaha! |

Oh oh, I haven't been able to play yet but I'm seeing threads full of AR users having an orgasm over the improved hit detection. That doesn't sound very good at all. |

I'm in favor of true differences between suits and roles. I'm okay if scout suits can wear heavier armor. I'm okay if heavies can't cloak.
If we don't bake in some differences we're always going to be outdone by people with more slots. |

Not really on topic but they really need to quit backfilling lost games with new players. Three sure losses in row now.
It's one thing to join a game, play for a while, and then lose (or lose worse when some quit). That's part of the experience. However, joining a nearly completed lost cause is not the same. You don' t even have the joy of being beaten by a better opponent as part of losing.

I'm not leaving until I have enough SP to skill out another tree after I finish up the sniper.
Edit: Maybe by then I'll get good (enough) at CQC... then I'll need a vehicle. |

Sigh, sometimes I throw up pathetic numbers but I know for a fact I helped us win the game.
Case in point... I join a game late, more than half over, and we look to be tied. Run to D with an uplink... then sit for a couple moments and snipe some reds trying to stop us from taking it back.
Run off to A with another uplink... try to hack the objective. Oops, no love there with a camped tank (I think) but hey. Go back to defend D after a few deaths. Time runs out and we win.
Pathetic 1:1 KDR with 3-3.
Nowhere on the scoreboard, I can't be bothered to scroll down to find myself.
I feel like Rodney Dangerfield. I can't get no respect! |

My kd/r was shote for the match so obviously i needed to "get gud n0ob"
I wish the end board showed the percentage of time in-match.
Generally, the later you arrive the worse it makes you look. In my case... I worry about looking like a useless sniper since the majority of players already hate snipers. |
