I've been running with a basic dampener but actually find that much of the time there's very little scanning, even against Redstar only occasionally did they even try and I don't know if they were proto scanners or not because they couldn't get me anyway. The stupid thing was that I could tell that they knew where I was anyway because I could see red dots coming my way every time it flashed up "Scan attempt prevented". The "Some margin of error" message needs to go. That **** is total BS. I agree. I also would like to see the "You have been scanned" message go away. As if we don't have enough problems being seen. Particularly when I roll up on an objective that looks like it might be deserted, and scan just to find several reds there, no back up, and now they know I am around and can send out the search party.

One Eyed King Eyniletti Rangers Minmatar Republic 37	Posted - 2013.12.07 03:22:00 - [7] - Quote Before coming in to work today, I was finally able to experience a game where I felt truly useful as a scout. First, I was able to take objective D, in a four-objective tied skirmish, and hold it by myself long enough to give our team enough margin for victory. All the while going 2 on 1 and a couple very determined reds, and taking them both out on at least 2 of their takeover attempts, while the rest of my team was in the city. (On a side note, they couldn't have been that good, as I was able to RE them twice while they hacked the objective. You think they would have learned the first time...) THEN I was actually smart enough, for once, to realize when I could no longer hold the objective, and ran back into the city to have some fun. Just in time to see a red tank sitting in the middle of the street, trying its hardest to shoot up one of my blueberry friends. Unfortunately for the 2 reds in the tank, they didn't notice me placing two REs next to the tank, and manged to blow them up WITHOUT blowing myself up in the process. For once. Lastly, as my final act of scout defiance, I put an SMG into the back of a red half a second before victory. I went 13/6 and was 4th in the standings. I cannot WAIT til this suit is fixed and the playing field is leveled so I can hear all these Med frame AR motherfrackers whine and complain when they realize that all this time CCP was subsidizing their lack of skill and tactics with poor balance, and that all CCP did was create a minority of players with superior skills and battlefield intelligence by stacking the odds against them for so long. It will be a beautiful day my brothers and sisters. Nova knifing scout masochist. I would be a sadist, but CCP won't let me.

It is the hardest of all previous builds imo. I find it hard to function as a scout against proto squads. I hope 1.8 brings us good news. The dev blog where they speak about scouts is amazing. Good job Knight S. I grief a lot when I play in FW. Turalyon is the chat name for gal FW. I am also having a hard time with this build. I came in to 1.6 with a paltry 0.70 kdr, and with some work built it up to a slightly less paltry 0.74 by ending the last week or two +1 and a few times + 2 and near the top of the boards many times. So far, I am usually in the 0.4 and 0.3 range all of a sudden I don't know if I am just a really horrible shot, and the toned down AA on my SMG is causing the issues, in combination with the RR and CR which are able to kill me before I can get in close. It could be the hit detection problems that others have seemed to notice, and which I have thought I noticed, but couldn't be sure. Then you add in the fix to explosives radius and damage. I can't tell if the odds have just been stacked against me due to the hit detection and new weapons, or if my recent success was due to unwitting inflation by previously broken mechanics.

I am trying to figure out how to skill into the profile precision and range areas. As a minja, losing the omniscient installations really hurt my awareness.

Hacking Nanos and uplinks Basically an even keel across the board in suit upgrades. Surprisingly I have kept to my role goal since the start, speed, agility, Hack, uplink spam, field reports (when squaded), snipe/ counter snipe. and still having fun I find with each subsequent patch, certain items become more and more obsolete. I myself was a sniper in open beta, until maybe around August when I switched over to a Nova/SMG combo. I had a fit with a charge SR, but I haven't even thought about using it since 1.7 as everything else is much more powerful, unless you have a Thales. While NKs have been improved dramatically, I think the advent of the CR and RR has reduced the viability of the SMG, at least for myself. And as far as the KinCats go, I would do some research in terms of CPU/PG usage on suits. It took me a lot of sp to figure out at this juncture, I can't really fit them onto my minja because of the significant PG even basic KinCats need.

Not sure if a thorough eHP analysis has been conducted yet. If it has, I haven't seen it. I'd love to know the maximum eHP of various enemies. This sounds like an interesting project. I will start on it tomorrow. EDIT: Additionally, I'm considering attempting a scout threadnaught but I wouldn't dare do it without the assistance of you fine fellows in here. Would you folks be willing to assist me if I were to make a lengthy 'buff scouts' thread? My initial thoughts on this were to do the extremes within the suits, much like the profile dampener bullet points. My scout rocks about 200 ehp, and thats with level 3 armor and level 4 shields, though no modules. Today, I came across a heavy who had 2500+ armor! I didn't even see his shields. I get the idea of wanting different roles and whatnot, but my contention would be that at extremes (as in a basic scout, no modules or armor/shield SP) the higher ehps could be over 10 times that of the lowest. That is ridiculous!! I think scouts should have the lowest ehp, but I don't think they should be a tenth of a heavy. Its no wonder this game is unbalanced... Nova knifing scout masochist.

For myself even the removal of SA and an extra EQ as a trade, would work for me. But I don't think it's a fair thing to do towards the Scout clas, considering the tender love some of the other classes has gained over time. But this is from my POV and I rarely use Complex/Prototype gear, even if I have the possibility to use Protosuit Scout and a couple of modules at Complex level. However I might come to realize if I want to fully fit a Prototype suit with Complex gear I'll come short rather soon. So those levels I'm unaware of. My playstyle revolves around passive scanning, utilizing UL's and RE's mostly as equipment, the CR is a perfect fit for me(as long as I keep myself at optimal range) and what the Flux said to clear out clusters of enemy equipment. At ~14 million SP I still have a lot to invest into my build to make it optimal and that is without branching to far into other stuff, man I'm gonna play this for eternity.

The knife radiates energy and thus is non directional, meaning it can't get through the tankers armor no matter how many swipes because you are limited by the knifes limited blade length. A tank with small pockets in it (not fully piercing the armor) would still be structurally sound. Also the knife is not like a plasma cutter because of the lack of directional energy, meaning the pressure still comes from the force exerted by the arm, meaning any substantially thick steel matter would require a long physical press to even get through something. This talk about plasma, energy, etc makes me think of a random idea to bounce off you guys. What if charged nova knives emitted an energy wave from the swipes that gives them slightly extended range when charged, to deal with backpedallers? I would just rather them deal with the back pedaling issue, especially considering how it also effects our shotgun scout family. This scout thanks you CCP!!!

In fact, I had some beginners luck were I took out a couple, and didn't think it was going to be so bad. Then I got into matches where they wouldn't stand still, and couldn't either time their movement, or hit anything even when I thought I had it timed right. Of course, a couple other times, I swore I hit them, or at least directed splash damage toward their feet so I wouldn't need to get the direct hit, but they ended up taking no damage whatsoever. @Quil, I really wanted to use an HMG, however since I am doing this solely for the sp bonus of the event, and would need to put in a lot of sp just to get the hmg, militia forge was the only way to go. As far as my tactics go for the heavy, and hmg would suit me tons better. I found myself wishing I had one a few times. Looking for the scout hangout? CCP banished it to the locker room

On a character that has dampening maxed, it would be nearly impossible to detect, which is a weakness that makes heavies and medium frames more balanced.

Its the same problem we had with the logis being better scouts than us. It may be my own personal perspective, but I believe each role should have a place in the game in which it does its job better than all others. That isn't to say you can't vary the role and make certain suits somewhat more like others, like adding armor to scouts or dampeners to assaults, but again it shouldn't become better at a style than the suit designed specifically for that role.

This means that I would have to sacrifice any kincats, armor, range enhancers etc just to be able to be passively invisible to some of the higher equipment. Now also look at the other suits. Mediums would have to sacrifice a lot to get under 25 and unscannable by a lot of fits. If we nerf the cloak, we are only increasing the advantage of the Cal/Gal scouts.

The red is looking at you, but hasn't shot you yet. Your knives are in your primary slot, so switching to them is not an option as the red is not right in front of you. Switching to my smg means double tapping R2, which would basically give me away before I could get any shots off, not that I am really able to 1v1 head to head with anyone (222 ehp). Do you: A) Remain still, hoping they didn't see you (aka T Rex/Min commando), and just pass on by. But risk them actually seeing you anyways, and just feeling like an idiot standing there while they shot you? or B) Risk moving or equiping either the NKs or SMG and making some vain attempt at pressing the attack so that if you die, at least you can feel like you died fighting? All of these have happened, and sometimes I get passed by and can get the kill, other times I think they might pass and they just shoot, and I have ran head on into the attack without much success.

You severely contract it's tactical advantages and make it useful for one or two situations versus the broad range of situations the ADV/PRO cloak is useful for now. The 30s timer is what makes the basic cloak garbage. I agree. As a minja who uses the cloak a lot for hacking, and often having to cross the entire field to get to an undefended location, as well as making sure my squishitude avoids hot spots, I find I often need all 60 seconds.

Then don't be inaccurate I wasn't innaccurate with it when (the only time) I killed you. Looking for the scout hangout?

Not only that, but it seems that any number of fits are valid as well, and that the game is getting to a place where we are always going to have disagreements on what is best simply because we all have different styles of play and skill levels. There was even a sighting of When you look back, and see how we were so gimped in the past that there was a consensus for the most part about what needed to be done, I think it speaks volumes to where this game might head.

One Eyed King Land of the BIind 1056	Posted - 2014.04.12 18:49:00 - [200] - Quote @ Fat Bastard I think when you compound the fitting restraints (and being an NKer, I find kincats to be helpful in chasing people down from behind, otherwise it takes even longer, and leaves me more vulnerable) with the scanning and fitting capabilities of other suits. I find that also running adv cloak and dampeners is practically mandatory if I don't want to stick out like a squishy light bulb on others tacnets. To me, being able to scan someone is the greatest advantage in the game, and combining that with the ability to not be scanned at the same time significantly increases the advantage. Other scouts are able to do this far easier than minjas, while also being able to fit better weaponry, or armor etc. This is mostly observation, with only a hint of complaint, as I actually enjoy hard mode, and the challenge of needing to outsmart or use superior skills to take down opponents (one reason I have yet to fully embrace the CR which is both easy to fit, and suits minjas rather well). There are just times in which I think the only viable counter to someone or some circumstance is avoidance, which should never be the sole option. Particularly when those instances appear to take little skill. On a different topic: Someone said, maybe Appia?, that some of the bonuses from skilling into other suits could be universally applied. I wanted to double check and see if that was true, or which bonuses/races in particular this would refer to. I also could have misunderstood. Any clarification would be great.

I do not use swarms myself, but had a tank take off on me after two REs, and I was just about to curse the swarm using merc, when I realized I could wait a hit or two. Sure enough, after a couple hits, I blew my REs and got lots of WP and hopefully an angry tanker. In general, I think its silly how much HP HAV and LAV have at the militia lvl. I think a basic militia LAV should be taken out by militia swarms easily if the driver has no modules and no SP invested. I used to blow up LAVs with 1 RE.

I have a general question regarding balance, and would like some thoughts. Generally speaking, there is supposed to be a yin and yang thing going on for balance, like how plates reduce speed (even if they still offer too much hp for what they penalize with cost and speed reduction). What if scanning were the same? Increases in precision with mods meant decreases in profile. Decreases in profile with mods means higher scanning precision. I maxed out on mental CPU after that thought hit me, and could barely put it into a coherent statement (and possibly failed to do so) after reading 11 pages of argument, so I really wasn't able to process what that might do, if anything, to ewar balance.

This ** just has to be done, and really should have been done ages ago when these problems were first identified by the community. There are so many values in the game that have been tweaked so much for so long that they're well out of the original design "pocket" they once belonged in. Normalizing the fitting on the armor plates is only the tip of the iceberg, there are just loads of systems in the game without any kind of sensible scaling or progression, and its been causing too much micromanagement to be done on the individual stat level, rather than tweaking larger knobs like PG/CPU ratios at a system level. The old way is simply tedious and highly inefficient, and Rattati is wise to make cleaning this up one of his first priorities. The sooner Rattati cleans up the messes in the spreadsheets, the faster this whole iterative process becomes, and we continue to accelerate towards a fun, playable, balanced play state. Why you don't see the benefit in this is just beyond me. Fits will be broken in the process. There's no sense in trying to stop every occurence, or in lashing out at the people finally trying to fix the game. As much as possible, measures will be taken to keep as many roles effective at all times, but its a bit unreasonable to create paralyzing logic puzzles for the devs by throwing red flags every time an individual suit or weapon is affected negatively, without giving any consideration to the greater benefit offered by cleaning up Dust's mechanics at a systemic level. Frankly, in any game (whether its Dust, EVE, LoL, Magic: The Gathering, you name it) that is governed by a competitive meta, this sort of pot-stirring is almost a form of content generation in the first place. I just personally refuse get on board with the "BUT MY FIT IS GOING TO CHANGE. RAWWWWWWRRRRR" bullshit. Logging in and seeing different suits on the battlefield is actually a gift and one of the game's true pleasures. A) Who is this guy? He has a white tag, but is not IWS, and is posting in this thread. What is next? A blue tag NOT locking this thread? Madness I say!! B) The members of this community have always wanted balance, not just with scouts, but with the game as a whole. If you look at all the arguments and discussions in this forum, you will find that the great majority of its members have been sure to not let our wants get out of hand. We spent nearly a year being the broken suits, the ones that made the sacrifice for the greater good of the game. Then we finally got some attention (even though it was not the attention we asked for, and many of the problems created were based upon this community being ignored). THEN we get the news all this was in vain because Dust is no longer going to be supported long term. Now you say we should be ok with being the suits who have to make the sacrifice again??? Where do you get off? We want balance just as much as you, and you say that we should just graciously accept more nerfs for the greater good of a game going nowhere after a couple months of relevancy and you think we should say THANK YOU??

The purpose of the CPM is to represent the community to CCP and be a conduit for the community as a focus group of sorts. The assertion was that being a CEO is a bad thing was just something I was hoping i could easily disperse by listing a bunch of the candidates you may not have known were CEO's. Being a CEO doesn't inherently make you a viable CPM choice, but it can demonstrate a lot about you. Your ability to lead a corp successfully is often time a reflection that you are willing to put in the time to keep the corp 'alive' in some sense. Corps that aren't given goals or have a factor that keeps the community together (take WTF as the default French community corporation) often fall by the wayside. A leader is often also heavily involved in putting out fires diplomatically, and being patient and professional is really key when you want to work with CCP. You can't be the type of person to reign down fire and brimstone and cry and scream because it gets you worse than nowhere. You get reduced to sitting in a corner with the dunce cap and you compromise your ability to advocate with the traits that voted you in in the first place. Furthermore being CEO often means you've dealt with other CEO's, at least I assume so I personally know probably about 20 CEO's on dust and am familiar with many more. This leads to some really happy things happening in terms of having laid the foundation to delegate to those CEO's and ask them to get feedback from their members about 'X' if you simply don't have the time to seek out each member. If that foundation isn't there, you have to work a little harder. Duna for CPM1? I would rather not consider a person's role in a corp, even if they are a good CEO. I don't think the CPM needs to have people who are "leaders" in order to represent the community. Ever try and have too many Chef's in a kitchen? It becomes too much "over here," and wanting to one up someone else. CCP needs to take the leadership role, and they need good analysts and team players, people willing to both make points when necessary, and take back seats should that be best.

At least prior to 1.8 I could be dampened even on a std suit, and be mostly undetectable. Now I don't know that is an option anymore, at least not on a std suit.

I think this disparity is a symptom of an overall scanning/dampening mechanic in Chromosome, and we will end up just fixing one race to break another, to fix that to break another etc. IF I were going to make a suggestion it would be D. I think that dampening should be a scout thing, not a gal scout thing (maybe give them range, and give Amarr some armor bonus or something and make them a lighter stealthier assault). IF I were going to nerf the Cal, I would simply take away passive scan sharing. I don't mind having a Cal scout pick me up on radar if he gimped his suit to do it, I just don't like that all his squad mates got the privilege without the sacrifice. And I say that having ran into one of those bastards (lower case b, definitely not capital) that had his way with me. So long as it doesn't become terribly common, I feel that given time I could find a way to combat it. Just not all his buddies at the same time. The REAL Internet King
One Eyed King Land of the BIind 1848	Posted - 2014.06.09 02:23:00 - [295] - Quote On my minja: To beat a Cal with 1 CE, I would need 2 CDs or 1 CD and a proto cloak active. With 2 CEs, I need 3 CDs or 2 CDs and a proto cloak active. With 3 CEs, I need 3 CDs and at least an adv cloak active. With 4 CEs, I need 3 CDs and a proto cloak active. This requires more of a sacrifice from my end on every level. I am not as familiar with the cal (having only played it for one clone in one game so far), but if I am running my std minja, the 1 CE forces me to use all my lows, and if I opt for trying to fit a proto cloak, I no longer have the CPU or PG left to fill up much else of the suit, which would more likely than not leave me with a module slot unused. Not to mention that we are forced to overlook the actual advantages of suit. No kincats, no codebreakers, because we have to dampen. Cals can still throw on armor and other items. I would be curious to see if they could outhack or run faster than a Minja on top of that, though I haven't run it through protofits because it just came to me. Either way, some adjustment needs to be made. Heck, even giving the tied scanning mechanics go the dampeners way would help. Edit: Damn you for beating me to the punch Shotty!!

Maybe Rattati will have some magic cure, but seeing what happened with the cloaks, I feel like it may end up just being the minmatar disproportionately feeling the brunt of the changes.

One Eyed King Land of the BIind 2082	Posted - 2014.06.22 00:50:00 - [338] - Quote As far as my views on minmatar issues it all revolves around several issues all involving scanning. 1) Being able to scan > Being able to avoid a scan. 2) Shared perma scanning (which we know is here to stay for the short to medium term ) 3) The relative sacrifice the Cal needs to make in order to pick up a minja vs the amount of sacrifice a minja needs to make in order to avoid scans. I don't think that minmatar (or for that matter scouts in general) should be able to completely avoid scans, but they should be able to avoid PASSIVE scans. Or at least force the Cal to sacrifice nearly everything in order to pick us up. Otherwise, I think active scanners do the job nicely. They are not omnidirectional, nor are they permenant As it stands, everything else is immaterial save for the players with the highest level skills. It doesn't matter how fast you are if you show up on scans, or how fast you can hack if you can't reach the terminal. When the cloak dampening bonus was still in play, I found my innate hack speed was fast enough if I played smart. And if Appia is right about showing up with a chevron over your cloaked head (which I never knew, but assume she does), then she is right about that being next to useless. Knife additions for me, when they come, will be a nice addition for those who can always run proto, but won't mean as much on lower level suits that can't dampen enough do to slot layout and fitting. They are so close to great that the marginal benefit any good buff can provide won't be enough to compensate for the weaknesses of the suit, and anything more than that would be incredibly over powered. All Rattati did with Alpha was create more problems, that will require a greater number of fixes, and he didn't even fix the tanking problem. I know he means well, but he might as well delete Minmatar scouts and Amarr scouts because I don't trust that whatever fix he comes up with either fix the problem or will create more problems than what existed before. TL;DR I like making the Cal and Gal have to fit the modules to really get an advantage. Knifing, hacking, and kincat bonuses will be meaningless if the former doesn't happen.

I have always believed the ability to scan someone is way more of an advantage in this game than being able to hide. Being able to hide still leaves you vulnerable to people aware of their surroundings outside the tacnet, but does not in and of itself allow you to ambush someone unless you are also adept at field awareness. It is the ability to scan that enables people to ambush and avoid encounters best. I have also seen other scouts like Moody state that they believe scanning is more of an advantage than dampening, so please don't speak for us all in this regard. This is how a minja feels

So if you fit damps your precision goes down, if you fit precision your profile goes up, range reduces precision? That way a cal scout would be a beacon for even heavy frames. Gal scouts wouldn't have the option of seeing huge distances and staying hidden? I have thought about this before myself. I think it makes a lot of sense such that it removes the greatest advantage of all, which is being able to both beat a scan AND scan someone at the same time. At the very least, it would force someone who wanted to dampen and scan to fit an active scanner, which has its own drawbacks.

I also have a CR (I would love to use the ScR, but even with an CR and an adv cloak I have slots empty because of fitting requirements and realizing basic modules are worthless everywhere but the Academy), but when you have 200ish ehp, I find that I rarely win shootouts even with advantage of surprise. Its good for fighting in alongside a squad, but not solo when hacking. EWAR does use less PG, but then you aren't taking advantage of the few benefits minjas give in terms of speed and hacking.

I don't try to be minmatar and boost speed, hacking, stamina, NK's. but I do try to be a scout and boost precision, range, and dampening the same as I would if i were a Amarr scout. I would like it if Amarr got range bonus from gal. Then I could have all 4 roles covered. precision (cal) dampening (gal) range (amarr) and jack of all / hacker (min). This is the problem that not being able to fix shared scanning presents. I dampen enough to not be picked up by active scanners and non cal scouts that have a precision enhancer or two. Part of the issue as it currently stands is that it doesn't take as much sacrifice for a cal scout to pick my profile up and broadcast it to his friends. So I can't sneak past enemy lines, I can't stealth hack, I can"t use cover to sneak up behind his buddies. All my benefits are moot. What I like about the changes shotty suggests is that in order for a Cal to pick me up, he has to actually use more modules, and make a similar sacrifice. No more being able to scan me with next to no sacrifice, and then be able to add some additional modules for an even greater advantage. Same with the Gal scout. If they want to be invisible, they can't be invisible AND tank. Your original post on the discussion suggested that I am not making enough of a sacrifice. My point is that not only am I making as much sacrifice as I can, but that I also fail to make a difference despite the sacrifice. Additionally, as it stands, Cals and Gals are able to be much more effective WITHOUT the same level of sacrifice. This is how a minja feels

For Gals thats a 1:1 ratio up to 3 damps. All other scouts will need a damp even if the CAL isn't running a PE and a +1 damp for each PE the CAL is running. The plus side is that you never have to fit over 3 damps to avoid a cal scout. But nongals have to utilize cloak if CAL is running 3PE.

Such a variable would involve a redoubling of the 'if, then' logic of the current precision/profile EWAR by adding to it a specific radius-precision/radius-profile aspect. For the current EWAR, if one suit's precision is less than another suit's profile, then the latter is scannable passively within the prior suit's scannable range. If not, then it is not scannable at all. Adding "radius precision" and "radius dampening" variables could mean: if one suit's profile precision is less than another suit's scan profile, but the prior's radius precision is greater than the other suit's radius profile, then the latter suit is only scannable within the range designated by its radius profile. If not, then the latter suit will be scannable within the prior suit's scan radius as such. Moreover, if one's profile precision is greater than the other's profile, but the prior's radius precision is less than the other's suit's radius profile, then the latter suit is only unscannable within the range designated by the prior's suit's radius precision. For example, if my profile precision is 15 and my enemy's profile is 16, but my radius precision is 25 and my enemy's radius profile is 23, then I will only scan my enemy within 23 meters. If my radious precision were 22, however, and my scan radius were 50, then I would scan my enemy within 50 meters. Moreover, if my profile precision were 16, my enemy's profile 15, but my radius precision were 20, my radius itself 50, and my enemy's radius profile 22, then between 20 and 50 meters my enemy would be scannable. The Amarr Scout, then, could have a bonus to range precision and the Minmitar to range dampening. This would mean that Amarr Scout's would have the ability to scan undampened suits at great range, whereas the Minmitar would only be scannable at close ranges. Should an addition of new items be possible, then a radius precision enhancer and radius precision dampener should be added - - the prior being high, the latter low. Also, to help balance, Amarr and Min should both be 3 high, 3 low, or Min should be 4 high, 2 low. Or maybe even Amarr as 1 high, 5 low, and Min 5 high, 1 low - - depending on the actual numbers. Anyway, something to consider if a client-side update is coming at some point or, at least, for Legion. Possible constraints notwithstanding, I think its a good idea, at least in theory. Something like this I would have to see in action to really get a feel for how it would affect the game. I also have liked one of the other Bastard's recommendations of profile variability or volatility. Perhaps it could vary according to the action taking place, what gear you had equiped etc. Again something I would like to see in action and get a feel for, but I don't see either idea being worse than the mechanics we have now.

I'm currently working on some new ideas and I wanted to get your thoughts. So in my time playing with scouts and specifically cloaks, it seemed to me that on a Standard Scout suit can't feasibly fit a Standard Cloak & fill its slots until around level 3 of Scouts. I feel that (typically speaking) cloaks are an essential part of the scout role, and it is odd that someone new to the role has to reach level 3 before they can use it. How would you guys feel about giving a flat reduction to the CPU/PG cost of cloaks (equivalent to the current level 5 bonus)? Or even better, tie to the Light Frame skill, which requires level 3 to unlock Scouts, thus giving people the ability to use cloaks right away once that Scout role is unlocked? At this point in time, I personally have no problem with it. However, when they were coming up with fitting costs, cloaks had more benefits, and CCP didn't want to make it too easy to get one. I can't say that I know what the answer is. I think I would like to see other aspects of the scouts adjusted first, as scouts should be viable without cloaks, and then see where to go from there. I also know that the cloak nerf has resulted in a lot of scouts no longer equipping them. Not to mention there are a number of respected scouts that never much cared for cloaks to begin with.

The std cloak is so next to useless that I don't know what benefit it would give a newer scout that would be better than other equipment or modules.

It should take skill and tactics, and though the cloak should be a viable tool a scout can use, I don't think it should be a signature feature or one in which suits that lack it are gimped for its absence. This is how a minja feels

Not to mention the Standard Cloak may be useless to professional scouts such as yourself, but for a newer player wanting to try it out, its a big deal to them. Not to mention if the STD Cloak is indeed "useless", there really is no harm in allowing its use early on. I am by no means a pro. I don't PC, and I often use STD level suits. And I minja. If that doesnt' say amateur, I don't know what does. Being cloaked without having skills in dampening just makes you a predator looking spot on the field with a big red chevron over its head. I honestly don't know what good that would do. I could see the basic cloak being useful before the nerf because of the dampening bonus, but now that there is 0 dampening bonus, it does nothing. I have to use an ADV cloak on my std minja fits, and even with my engineering and electronics maxed out, I have to leave 1 or 2 slots open for other gear. I wouldn't mind having the light suit levels being what gets a scout to a cloak, because it wouldn't cause harm, but it might make some people who really wanted to try scouting have a very bad taste in there mouth.

Issue: It would cause the Light Frame to be A: The only skill that unlocks something to gain a bonus to something it doesn't unlock and B: The only Frame skill to require skilling into. Well to clarify, what I'm working on would make all of the Frame Skills worth skilling into by making them give a bonus instead of being unlock only. Right, gotcha. Makes sense. Though, would it be possible for those bonuses to apply to all suits within that frame? So the Light one would affect Light's, Scouts, and the Pilot (if it existed) Rather than just affecting the scout. And Heavy frame skill for the frames, Commandos and sentinels? What I have planned is similar along those lines. Long term I'd like to reach a point where each frame is capable of unique fits that the Specialty suits are incapable of replicating, but without the specific role bonuses that Specialization offers. In order to do this, Frame suits need to have unique but powerful bonuses as well as slot and equipment setups that are different from their Specialty counterparts. This assures that the Frame Suits may be preferable over specialty suits in some situations, and also gives you a reason to level them beyond level III, as the skill would still benefit the specialty suit in some way. Now that I see where you are going with this in general, I think its a very good idea. I think basic frames should have some purpose too, and this would help, without taking much if anything from racial specific suits. This is how a minja feels

In my opinion, sprint charge takes some of the skill out of the weapon. It is something that can already be done with the charge jump, but the charge jump takes a lot of practice and skill. My personal favorite, but we are unsure if it is possible, is a reduction to back up speed.

Standards easily kill anything that isn't a heavy or super-tanked Logi in one charged swipe (provided both knives connect). ZN-28's kill that tanked logi and some heavies. IshNoks kill proto heavies in one charged swipe plus one uncharged followup more often than not. CCP adds sprint-charge to the knives, they suddenly become OP, they suddenly become FOTM, you'll see asshats in Minmatar heavies running around with them or something else stupid like that. And then CCP will nerf the living **** out of them and that disturbance in the force you'll feel? That'll be the death cry of the playstyle of a goodly number of scouts crying out in pain for one instant before being extinguished forever. Then we'll all have to be cloaked shotgun scrubs. We want our knives to remain the territory of stealthy, difficult gameplay. We want our kills to signify our talent as hunters, killers and lone point defenders. When three guys in fat suits are hacking the same point and they all die one after the other in the space of 2.8 seconds, without the need for a remote explosive to be tossed... They remember your bloody name and they fear it. They look for it on the leaderboard at the beginning of a match. If they see it, they change their behavior. Everyone knows who mr musturd is. Ghost Kaiser. Llast326. I could go on. There're a few who have sent me hatemail after and during a match for my knife work. They'll never forget my name. I've had corpmates comment on my spamming the killfeed with Ishukone Nova Knives for brief spurts (nothing like the streaks I've seen Ghost go on, mind)... my tank-driving, dropship-flying squadmates' saying "Nice, Jace!" when I take down that forge gunner they can't hit. When they see the name of that hostile Thale's sniper inside the redline show up in the killfeed, the one you can't effectively countersnipe because he's in a proto Sentinel suit. The guy manning the railgun installation inside the redline. They all remember the knifer who shredded their dropsuit. They all know that the sound of the knives slashing means they're already dead. Add a sprint-charge to the knives, we'll all just be "another nk scrub". It won't be special. Do not want. Yeah I am not asking for OP anything, let alone knives. But viable is what I thought they have never been. Things change, I've not been around for a few months - didn't realise the idea of sprint-charge had been poo-poo'd. So yeah. I've seen Jolly's vids, and had some fun with knives myself pre-1.8 with min scout. I wasn't advocating for a specific improvement, just asking about a specific one. Clearly others here think it could do with improvement. I didn't realise they were feared these days.

If we do take away precision from Cal, we need to do something with Gal now too. At this point, I wouldn't even mind giving Gal minja hacking, because everyone needs a specialization. I think it was Broker who brought up taking away precision and dampening from Cal and Gal, and I totally support it, but then we are left with how to give Cals AND Amarr a specialization. I think Amarr would do well with a bonus to Ferros and/or Reacitve plates. As for Cal, maybe shields? Not really sure, just spit balling. This is how a minja feels

Shotty is doing a great job. Not trying to say he is not. The scout community is very lucky to have him. I am just giving my side. I want balance and have even stated as a 90% gal scout i would give up the OP dampening bonus to put the 3 non cal scouts on equal footing of needing 3 dampeners and a cloak to hide. Then what would a Gal scout get? would be less than an amarr and that is low. My biggest argument is if your going to force 3 scouts into 1 role with 1 bonus then it needs to be done to the 4th also. I consider the NK bonus to min scout a given bonus to get them to use NK's they still have hacking, speed, stamina/regen shield regen and the ability to use all the weapons the other scouts can use with no bonus. I have even agreed with moving codebreakers and range amps to high slot. that in return would make cal choose precison or range or a little of both with some dampening but still not good enough dampening. would allow min to run codebreakers and dampening or sacrifice some dampening for kincats. would allow amarr with a range bonus to dampen with kincat/cardi to enhance them and still give them a purpose of long range scanner. moving codebreakers to high with efficacy bonus for min is just as fair as the efficacy bonus to the rest of the scouts. The way I see it min needs to pick a bonus not pick all of them. what do they want to be faster than everyone or faster hackers than everyone they already have the OHK over everyone. pick one speed or hacking and add a efficacy bonus to it and put the mod in a high slot so you can still dampen. I think part of the problem is that beyond dampening and precision, which are broad bonuses in that they can affect a great number of battlefield circumstances, the rest of the bonuses are niche. So knifing and speed will help with knifing, but apparently won't mean squat in PC, which matters to some people, as it should. Hacking will be great, but mainly will apply to PC and Skirmish/FW, again making the suit limited. I don't know that there is a good answer. We may just have to end up with what is the best sh*tty answer. This is how a minja feels

I don't think that we can get optimization skills for the NK in right now, so a Minja PG increase should go a long way. And finally, Codebreakers in high? I actually like the idea of Amarr precision and Cal range. On Nova Knives, if I had to choose between a slower back pedal (which exists in the war barge fyi), and the adhesion or range, I would take the slower back pedal every time. I do however thank you for adjusting them piece meal and not making them OP. I have yet to hear anyone complain about the move of Codebreakers to HS from anyone on the forums.

They can back pedal at the exact same or faster speed as a minja slashing its knives because we slow down. You can walk or run to catch up, go to slash, and they are just out of your range.

From a "I want all scouts to be unscannable in some way even by sacrificing all slots and cloak" point of view, I think we need to have that discussion. I think we can tune these numbers to an acceptable resolution. Why do you think ratio of precision to dampening should not be 1:1? This is the biggest problem with perceiving any sense of balance in giving Amarr Scout a bonus to precision. I don't understand the question. This game is played in absolutes. I want to have the lowest Scan Precision possible on one suit and the lowest Scan Profile possible on another. The question is if the best Scan Precision can be acquired in only 2 modules (Amarr Scout with 2 Complex Precision Enhancers) why shouldn't the best Scan Profile be similarly acquired with the same number of modules? I think it has to do with the slot numbers and location. Filling up one side VS having to fill up the other side. Since the precision mods are HS and damps LS, it would create some mismatching. I also think that it would be easier if the precisions and damps were both LS OR both HS (LS preferably), then it would mean that you could do it this way, and that both suits were giving up the same thigns.

Why would you use a cloak other than the dampening bonus in a backstab situation? Using a cloak to backstab is bad tactics. The main reason is the time it takes to switch to knives as well as the propensity for you not to switch even tho you pressed the button to switch. Using a cloak, ironically to what you said, would actually complicate things. If you are at the point you've snuck up on someone and are in knife range, either they plain can't pick you up on tacnet, or are oblivious to it. Their back is to you so they don't see you anyways. That is until their shield and half their armor evaporates, which at that point the crutch second chance mechanic of backpedaling saves them from their mistake of being caught with their pants down amongst their squad of protos. Every single odd was against the knifer, but he scored that hit. Why should that be the whole extent of the suits capabilities? Because at that point the knifer has little to no chance as the prey now has all the cards. Maybe knives should do 1500 damage per uncharged slash? I wouldn't care about backpedalers then. They'd, like me, now have no chance after I hit them. I will cloak if I am stalking someone out in the open to prevent being shot at from a distance before I can do anything. Otherwise if I am close enough, or have enough cover, I will just switch to the knives. This is how a minja feels

Like enough so that you can get under passives scans with 1 damp and a cloak, but need 2 damps+ cloak for a gallogi focused? ID really like this with code breakers remaining low slots, as it gives us more utility, and brick tanking wouldn't be a problem (plates with speed penalties=retarted on a min scout, and you'd need another slot for a rep per) The only thing it would do is make it so that the minja could run 2 kin cats 2 code breakers or one of each while avoiding passives, and if they get gallogi'd they could still run a range amp or something to try to find him, or a kin cat for faster searching, or a codebreaker to hack the depot he's camping Thoughts? Is it game breaking? (Remember the only effect this will have is opening up another low for minjas, as they already require the cloak to get under passives) This is a good change IMO as it gives all scouts an aspect of eWAR not just three of them. Splits the pie a little more evenly. Remember, brick tanking on a min scout is not a problem (or possible ), and fitting ranges in the lows means that you lose shields to make them effective, so it would be balanced. I think it oversteps Gal scouts role too much. This is how a minja feels

I think they've got a random loot generator (ala Diablo) where the name of the item designates the form/skin, and the later numbers designate the specifics. I've had two pieces of green armor that were exactly the same, except the unlockable bonus was different. And others where the name/skin were the same, but the items themselves were different levels and profiles. Also picked up a green Komarov helmet last night that apparently 'significantly increases the speed of melee attacks', along with the strength bonus to reduce throwing knife recharge. Only unlocked it just before I finished up for the night so not sure how much of a difference it makes, but anything that allows for more face stabbing is good. I had one sniper rifle with a skill (or an innate ability, I can't remember) that said that a kill with it would result in a reduced reload time, and when I would reload after a kill I noticed a significant difference.

One Eyed King Land of the BIind 3009	Posted - 2014.07.30 02:01:00 - [547] - Quote I had a very entertaining evening with Dust. First, the funniest story. I was on that 4 pt map with the ridge and pipe running between B/C and A/D. I was by A, and it was just turned red, so I was being somewhat careful. Just outside the door to the building, near the supply depot, two redberries were playing grab ass and trading melees with one another. I casually sauntered up with my knives, hoping to get a double kill, but only got the first one. I think the second guy got confused, because he didn't really react til it was too late, like he thought he might have killed his little buddy. Then I knifed him too. I am still laugh my ass off, that was one I wish I had on capture card. Next somewhat amusing story. I came up to a Rail turret? (it was an installation, but not sure which kind) and turned it from red to blue. I noticed just prior that some red was calling something in. Immediately after hacking, I jump into the installation and start shooting at the tank. A redberry appears, either because he was trying to get in the tank or recall the tank before it gets blowed up. I of course shoot him, then finish off the tank with some blueberry had. Lastly, I had my best game ever. I was 10 WP shy of 3000, and got like 340k isk. I don't think either team was that great. We were on Line Harvest, and I basically ran around placing uplinks everywhere. We should have won easily but I don't know what the blueberry problems were. It was very close, where we blew up the MCC and had less than 20 clones to their 10 or less, and our MCC wasn't far from death itself. I basically just watch Team Spawn +25 pop up ad nauseum, hacked a few points, and got a few kills (went KDR neg, but who cares). If Scotty could only work that well for every game...

I do not believe that beating scans with 1 damp + cloak would create balance issues for Minmatar or Caldari Scouts. I've serious reservations, however, about Gallente and Amarr Scouts. We've witnessed prior to Alpha the problems created by single-dampened, high-HP GalScouts; I suspect the future Amarr Scout would be capable of even greater imbalance... The current CalScout's strength at recon is checked by his lack of survivability; he cannot effectively tank while enhancing precision. After Charlie, the Amarr Scout will be capable of doing both. Adding the additional ability beat scans with one damp would create a clearly best-in-class unit. What slayer wouldn't want to run a suit with the best possible passive scans, TacNet immunity and 700+ HP? Have you seen the Hotfix Charlie Assault Numbers? because it used to be rare to find a suit that could survive 2 hits from the shotsgun. Now it's going to be commonplace So what if a scout has 700 total HP. My Assault is going to have twice that. An excellent point. Let's play this out ... CA, MN Scout - Beats non-focused scans with 1 cmp damp + any cloak CA, MN Scout - Beats focused scans with 1 cmp damp + pro cloak GA Scout - Beats non-focused scans with 1 cmp damp GA Scout - Beats focused scans with one 1 damp + any cloak AM Scout - Beats all scans with 2 cmp damp + any cloak Objectives: * Reinforces GA Scout role as infiltrator * Frees up a low slot for MN and CA * Prevents AM Scout from doing too much at once Thoughts? I would have to see how it played out. If NK changes etc make it a little easier to take them out CQC, that would be fine, otherwise it would still allow for some serious armor tanking. If the armor plate penalty for scouts is put in place, I don't see any problems. @ Void One of us misread something, because I took the conversation to be specifically regarding cloak dampening, with no changes to Gal dampening numbers.

I'm having a hard time following your thought process. Again. A 'bit of background ... EWAR is being divided three ways, and three EWAR Scouts are soon to have alot more in common. The lines which separate current roles are being altered; we need to redefine those lines or create new ones. If the GalScout's role is to be sneaky, then he should be measurably more sneaky than the others. To me, "measurably more" means getting the job done with one less module. To beat scans, I presently run two damps and a cloak on my GalScout. Come Charlie, I'll be able to accomplish the same with my CalScout. Rhetorical: How does this translate in terms of the GalScout's role? How does this translate in terms of the CalScout's role? As Appia has pointed out, Assaults will be the end-all-be-all Slayer Units. As such, we may be able to restore a meaningful cloak dampening bonus without upsetting balance. This would help the GalScout (not hinder it). But before we entertain the concept, we should agree on the GalScout's target role ... Are we all in agreement that the GalScout should remain the preeminent sneaker? Yes the galscout should be sneaky but i feel like the minmatar should be too especially with the amarr scan bonuses. The minmatar is supposed go be an assasin and assasinating people is kind of hard when they see a red dot getting ready to knife them. Knives could be fixed without doing that though the thing that would work would be a sprint chargeable knife. I totally agree. That is why I like Charlie. Because while we have to make a lot of sacrifice, we can get to that point of being unscannable. We should just have to make a greater sacrifice to get there than a Gal scout, which is also what happens in Charlie. When does charlie come out again? I hope this week. This is how a minja feels

On the occasions that I do, its usually just one or two guys, and I just avoid that area. If I do play any PC in the future though, I will definitely go full dampening. Though I would still need a proto cloak regardless if I fit 2 or 3 damps if I am not mistaken. This is how a minja feels

It still happens on occasion, because the cloak is not perfectly invisible, but that is fine with me. If someone happens to be paying attention out in the open and take me down, kudos to their awareness. I agree there are still problems with the cloak, but I don't see why we can't adjust the cloak AND fix the shotgun. Why should we have to choose?

I would say a quarter to a half of my deaths then were just from me trying to get to the enemy home point and hack the CRU, or something similar. I would run to the far edges of the map, but I was easily spotted, and Heavies with LAVs would just wreck me because they could drive up, mow me down, and drive off without me being able to hide or fight. I still use it in the city, but I generally run around the city cloaked as if I were uncloaked because of how much the shimmer pops, especially since cities tend to be darker.

I think the gal will hack at about 5 seconds (paging someone who knows what the base hack speed is, I think it's 10 seconds) How useful are those 2 extra seconds? And speed is about 10.00 vs 10.30.

Observation: If I'm reading this proposal correctly, a body shot from Charge SR will OHK the majority of my proto fits. Thoughts: I don't mind getting OHK'd by a Shotgun. The shotgunner has to be sufficiently fast to catch me, sufficiently dampened to beat my scans, sufficiently sneaky to avoid detection by me or my allies. When I do get OHK'd by Shotgun, I do not rage. In my mind, (1) skill and loadout requirements were met by the shotgunner and (2) the shotgunner successfully managed all risk factors and (3) I screwed up. The same thinking goes for getting OHK'd by Plasma Cannons and Nova Knives. It happens. It's often funny. There's no question that both skill and risk are involved. I can't imagine having the same mentality about a sniper placing an OHK body shot from 300+ meters, camped safely atop a spire or deep in redline. Question: I totally understand and agree that increasing the SR's punch is necessary to keep pace with HP creep. But is it not a better idea to increase the headshot multiplier only, such that there is no question as to the skill requirement of the shooter? Quote: "Whoa! Sniped in the face! Lucky shot!" vs :: I has left the battle :: Without changing the base damage several suits are still multiple magazine affairs for body shots only against a range of targets. That said though both base damage and headshot damage can be changed independently for example I could give the charge rifle a MUCH higher headshot damage if it means that it would still take 2 body shots for the more vulnerable targets. Going to crunch more numbers for the charge if that is going to be an issue for sure and probably go that route should be very doable to keep the desired headshot damage. However my initial pass stated it shouldn't been that much of a problem. I have my tank fits when needed 388 eHP 17db dragonfly gal scout 453 eHP 17db adv gal scout 527 eHP 17db proto gal scout I don't mind being a OHK when I am full ewar but when I am in my 17db TANK fittings I feel it should take more than 1 body shot tier vs tier even if it only leaves me with 1 HP. Charge should be a OHK vs my 17db proto TANK fitting no matter what since it is a charge weapon and you have to suffer the SOUND (PLEASE REPLACE CPP) I have a similar perspective. I have only been OHKd a handful of times since 1.8 thanks to the cloak. It doesn't really bother me. The only thing that really bothers me is that the directional indicator isn't very good a lot of times, and with a head shot doesn't give me an opportunity to dispatch the sniper.

I feel that 3 and 4 above would widen the gap between best-in-class and worst. The only problem I have ever really had is with the armor stacking. Otherwise, I find knives solve any Cal Shield stacking, and they don't see me coming because they didn't equip the precision. Knives are beautiful this way. Knives are the Great Equalizer. They 1 shot any suit, regardless of role, size, race or sexual preference.

I was thinking of echo, and maybe making basic suits viable. Was thinking of advocating giving basic mediums 2 equipment slots to make them somewhere between assaults and logis, also making them equal price to the specialised suits. Then I got to thinking about scouts and light frames. How about making scouts sidearm only, bear with me, and make light frames light weapon+sidearm with 1 equipment, maybe light frames should get a little extra hp too. I know this would be a scout nerf, but there is still a lot of scout QQ. Sidearms seem to be pretty good now. Shotgun+cloak would become rare and save a lot of tears. You could still shotgun or sniper rifle with a light frame, making them pretty useful. Finally I don't see why light frames need 2 equipment slots, it kind of invalidates the idea we need 2 eqs because of the cloak. What do people think? Scout QQ is a lot about scouts being relevant in a way they were not between 1.0 and 1.8. I don't like the idea of side arm only scouts, even though that is what I run. It completely invalidates the shotgun scout, which is a valid play style, sniper scouts and others. Most light weapons do not deal alpha damage, so when it comes to light weapons fights scouts will always be at a disadvantage. Light frames are worthless, and nerfing scouts to give them a use is not really buffing them. They lack the bonuses that make scout frames useful. I get that there may be problems with scouts, but I am not always on board with what that issue is. We can't really out assault an assault, or out logi a logi (except for maybe std level?). If scouts were so OP, everyone in PC would run them, but from what I am hearing PC is nothing but Heavies and Logis. I think the QQ comes down to having more scouts than before, and having them be more viable. If after everyone has spent their SP from this recent event we are still not seeing more Assaults, we need to try and understand why, and it may be a weakness in Assaults and not a scout problem, or it may simply be an issue with armor plates on scouts, which can be addressed without nerfing every other scout that doesn't run plates to begin with.

I guess I was thinking "if" the scout QQ has any merit. As for light frames, as a min scout user I feel I can be effective as a shotgun or rifle user without any relevant suit bonus other than the cloak. It seems to be the opinion of a lot of players that the cloak is not necessary for effective scouting (like before 1.7). Therefore I feel light frames would still be good, though maybe an hp increase would be necessary to balance the lack of bonus, cloak or 2nd equipment. I also share your worry that sidearms lack the required power for effective scouting, although nova knives certainly do have enough. It also might restrict weapon choice too much. Though it would give sidearms a real place to shine. Decloak - breach scrambler to the back - flaylock finish anyone? Finally, I still worry that shotguns overlap and outshine nova knives a little too much, my idea would fix that. Shotgun does overlap some with the knives, but I would rather have knives and run into a heavy than a SG. Also, I tried running a shotgun once, it did not go well. I still prefer knives. I just don't want to limit someone else's play style unless absolutely necessary. I would rather see plates penalties looked at and see a shift of passive skills to module efficacy before I would see scouts as side arm only. You can always tell a Millford Minja

We're presently in the process of peeling back the onion so-to-speak, having already dialed down aim-assist and disabled stunlock. While I'd support further dialing down of aim-assist in some instances (namely the Bolt Pistol), I'm on the fence about outright removal of aim assist. What do you guys think?

The acceleration and movement of the cursor is the biggest issue IMO. There is little difference between 0 and 100 sensitivity. I notice almost no difference in the ability to "fine tune" my aim. You move the DS stick 20% and it causes the reticle to move 100% of its speed. Test it for yourself, see if you can find the point at which you stick stops creating acceleration and its movement is slow and steady. Its nearly impossible to find and maintain. I saw a HUGE improvement to my ability to aim with the stick extenders because it allowed me to utilize that 20% a lot better. There has been no other game that basically required me to put the them on. The issue with the stick extenders is they cause my thumbs to cramp after about 2 or 3 games; its just not very ergonomic. I used the mouse for a long time but you can't develop muscle memory for it (because CCP forces acceleration), so I stopped that as well. In summary its not the AA, is the mechanics of reticule movement itself. We have to rely on AA because the ability to fine tune and build muscle memory isn't possible. I found the ds4 to make a difference as well. It took me awhile to get used to it, because I would partially move the stick expecting the 100 percent movement, and would end up getting killed because I under aimed.

Sometimes I approach an objective thinking it is not defended, only to find several red dots. I am by myself, so I gtfo. This is particularly true on that one map where B is in a building surrounded by higher structures. Many times, that is where the action is, other times, it is undefended. Other times, I see them running away, towards another engagement. I will wait a few seconds until I feel they are far enough away, then begin the hack. Sometimes I am out in the open, running from one place to another, when several mercs including heavies, are coming my way. I run and hide and let them pass, but couldn't do it if I didn't know they were there. This is especially true when I use lots of cover, which I still try and do a lot because of cloak "invisibility." Using cover limits my own lines of sight, not to mention the sound dampening, which is to me enough of a limit. Then there is UL hunting, which would be next to impossible to do in the open areas uplinks can be placed and trying to remain uncloaked to pick them up. That is just asking for a sniper round or RR for a quick death. I would be more open to Haerr's suggestions if the more specific issues were fixed and cloaks were still shown to be a problem, but if they were in and of themselves, why aren't Rattati's numbers showing knives, ScP, CR, and ScR problems too? Is that something we could ask, and see if their numbers on a Scout are marginally different than those on other suits?

Also, to be clear, the "other changes" I was talking about would be buffs in this case considering that the alteration to cloak scan range, weapon use from decloak et al are nerfs my hypothetical was simply posed as a "if scouts would enjoy that cloak change, what buffs would be required to keep things in a good spot balance wise". But as you say that is a lot of hypothetical X factors to account for. Cheers, Cross Gotcha. I think the particular nerfs would dictate what, if anything would need to be offset.

At first glance, this sounds reasonable. To me, at least. But having looked into the numbers, satisfying this request would require a massive buff to Assault Precision (50dB --> 38 dB), a massive nerf to Scout Profile (35 dB --> 42 dB) or some combination of the two. If we did this, we'd end up creating new problems at the low end of the dB spectrum, where dampened Scouts will find themselves getting scanned regardless of how many dampeners they stack. If the past is any indication, precision beating profile at the low-end of the spectrum leads to EWAR imbalance. So how can we address the high-end of the spectrum (where "assault lite" lives) without disrupting balance at the low-end of the spectrum? I'm wondering how a buff to the 28 dB scanners might play out ... not so much for GA Logis, but for the other guys (like Assault or Commando) who are demanding the ability to scan undampened Scouts. Working out the math ... The undampened GA/CA Scout Profile is 27 dB uncloaked, 25 dB adv cloaked and 24 dB proto cloaked. If the 28 dB scanner were buffed to 24 dB, it would scan single-damped MN and AM Scouts. Not good. If it were buffed to 25 dB, it would not scan single-damped scouts (unless wielded by the counter-recon specialist GA Logi) ... A 25 dB proto scanner would scan at 19 dB when wielded by a GA Logi. This would paint all single-damped (dodged by GA/CA if proto cloaked) but would not paint any double-damped Scouts. This seems reasonable to me. It'd satisfy the demand to curb undampened Scouts without mucking up competitive EWAR. What do you guys think? I would rather this than start messing about with EWAR. Would it also work if perhaps Assaults gained a slight bonus to the module efficacy of precision? It would have to be less than the scout bonus, and I certainly haven't worked out the numbers, but that could be an option as well maybe. You can always tell a Millford Minja

If just the EWAR changes were present. 1) Minjas could fit whatever cloak they would like with their 2 Damps and beat Amarr scans.

With the changes, they will have the advantage of knowing exact location, no matter what type of suit, and I will not see them coming. I can't plan an escape route, I will as often run right into them as I will away. Skirmish will just become a matter of who can slay the best, and it won't be me. Those are my fears. Its too many changes, all at the same time, with no degree of certainty how it will play. It fixes problems that don't really exist, and opens the door for many more problems we can't foresee In my eye, it provides marginal benefits for all that risk. Remind me again, what is the major problem that we are trying to fix? You can always tell a Millford Minja

Their problem wasn't dissemination of info, it was the way that information was presented. They could easily not have made promises, and said these are the things we are currently working on and would like to have in the game, circumstances willing. They could have, and still could with regard to Legion, temper expectations within the info that they give. It really isn't too difficult, it happens all the time in business. Look at Arrested Development. They always said they wanted to make a new season, but never made any promises. When they did start work, they always said that it was in the works, but that it was no guarantee. It was good that they finished the project, and while it wasn't up to par with previous work, they did a good job of providing information without making true promises and were honest about difficulties that prevented the work from being what they had initially wanted it to be. CCP can do the same. They can let people know what is being worked on, much like they did at FF, but without making promises. Like, we are working towards A, but if C and D come in to play, A might not make it into the games release. There are enough PR firms out there that get it that even a small one could easily help manage information without making the same mistakes they made previously. You can always tell a Millford Minja

I hope it all works out for the best in the end, but I don't look forward to it. Hacking will be a little more dangerous but I don't think this is a big change. Installation hacking won't be much different as the enemy still won't see you. It will just be risky escaping once the hack is done. Objective hacking will be interesting. I imagine it would be better to decloak first as the enemy knows where you are anyway. However you do loose that extra second it takes people to target you whilst cloaked and hacking, so I don't know. Not too worried myselfGÇª Remember when we used to hack **** slower and without cloaks.. and the Installations broadcast your position to everybodyGÇª hell we did it then we can still do it now. Though i will be bringing back my left and right RE drop before i start hacking a CRU in that little out of reach crookGÇª come get me fatty go ahead @ Llast I died then. A lot. @Varoth. I have a different view. Objectives will be next to no difference, save for maybe snipers, because once you start hacking, they already know where you are to about a meter. There is only so many places you can be when hacking an objective. The problem for me comes when planning an escape. I always watch my tacnet as I hack and watch where people are coming from, and take off in the other direction (as they are probably Assaults or Heavies, scouts just tend to kill me mid hack or shortly after). Installations outside of CRUs are meh, because most people don't pay much attention anyways, and most tend to be out in the open enough. Its the CRUs that frighten me most. Not only are they highly strategic in terms of game play, but even if I am uncloaked at the beginning to get an idea of nearby enemies, I either need to remain uncloaked, which often results in someone spawning in directly behind me for an easy kill OR hack cloaked, and have heavies and assualts spawn around me without any ability to plan an escape. I hope that my fear are unfounded, as they have been sometimes in the past, but it to my mind, any "fix" that inhibits other roles that were not a problem (see the Range nerf to fix redline snipers for reference) is not much of a fix at all. I just think these kind of fixes should be last resort when trying to balance. I don't think we have exhausted all possibilities, and I think removal of shared scans would be a better balance than removal of 85% of range while cloaked. No more Sprint Glitch?

For CRUs, I'd say still hack it cloaked, reasons as followed. Enemy does not know where you are for one. For another, if someone does spawn in behind you, they should spawn so close as to show up on the radar. Even just a quick pirouette in place should show people, without revealing your position. Also, if you do a sweep from side to side, you "should" pick up any reds near your sights that are outside of a cloaked radar range. Unless the new changes affect that too. For hacking points, I still advocate the buddy/sacrificial lamb system. One person (scout or something) cloaked, one uncloaked. I can't tell you how many times either I've been able to hack, or counterhack a point because the reds kill the uncloaked person, but missed me until it was too late. I've also been surprised by that same situation, but in reverse. Kill what I think is the only hacker, only to see the point still flashing. I am going to steal your idea for moving from side to side. I think the inevitable hacking nerf will require me to do it. I am not worried about people spawning in behind me while cloaked, I feel they will be in my radius. Its the heavy that spawns on the other side of the CRU that I think can spawn outside my radius and not be known to me that is the issue while cloaked. Add on top of that someone that spawns behind me so I can't decloak to check my tacnet before running, that will equal one screwed scout. In essence, its damned if you do, damned if you don't regarding cloak and hacking. Hack while cloaked? Spawining heavies will surprise you out in the open with HMGs that have a ridiculous effective range for someone who only runs 300 HP. Hack uncloaked? Be prepared for those spawning in to see you and gun you down before you can finish. I am going to be significantly less effective in the future, given how many times I will suicide hack with reds around.

If so, then I wholeheartedly think that that is stupid. 25% should be the max, ever. Even with a ridiculous 85% scan range nerf, this doesn't account for the fact that scouts will not need to put ANYTHING in their lows to dampen, which is outrageous IMO. Unless, of course, we make up for this by using range amps to replace the ridiculous nerf. It should be a 50% reduction to range AT MOST, 25% being much more reasonable. Dampening should be 10-25% at all tiers. Seriously, the cloak will now be worthless to equip. Unless we get more dampening or invisibility from it, I want a fuckin refund from my scout suit. If you're gonna bow down to 3 people creating alts to whine in general discussions, then the scout will never be good. Oh well, I already have proto min assault with the SP were getting/have gotten from the sidearm event. Its an 85% reduction to range. Profile bonuses remain unchanged.

While I run a Minmatar, I often get frustrated at times with how changes affect its viability. I think Gallente weather the storms of Scoutdom better than other suits. When things are bad, they are less bad for Gal Scouts, and when things are good, they are better able to take advantage of the good things. Overall, with regards to scouts, I will reiterate how Cass highlighted the dampening, electronics, and engineering skills. Those are the most important, regardless of any scout class, and should really be your No 1 priority. Skill into those first, with maybe going Gal level 3, and then staying there until you are sure what scout role you want to play. This way, if you should decide that there is another race that better suits your play style (Minja for hacking/knifing, Amarr for tanking/precision, Cal for range/shield tanking), you will not have sunk too much into Gal scouts, while still giving yourself a viable fall back suit if in game circumstances require it. 1.9 Where cloaked scouts give way to tanked scouts.

I don't know that something like that exists. If it does, its pretty old, and possibly irrelevant. There is always someone here for any specific questions, and we are more than happy to answer them.

In reality, so long as you didn't proto a logi suit right off the bat, or putting ALL of your SP into things that aren't scoutly, completely starting over won't help you a whole lot. A lot of skills, particularly core skills and weapons, can be used across the board. In 1.9, skilling up will come more quickly and it won't be as much of a grind for you.

Min Scouts are the most affected and you really can't make them light assaults as you can with the others. But its not just making an EQ slot worse. It's also completely negating any passive range/precision skills and any reason to run those mods. As if there were so many valuable HS mods in the first place. And this goes also to your idea of max/min dampening. If I want to see, I am going to have to be uncloaked. Unless I am Gallente, this means probably being seen. If I am likely to be seen, I might as well tank. Hence one reason I may actually consider skilling into Gallente, although I do have that lvl 4 Cal Scout skill in place I hate using. Hmm, decisions. Anywho, I don't know how many people will go the tanking route, but I am sure some will. We both know that being cloaked isn't invisible, and now that we can't use it defensively and avoid some conflicts just makes tanking even more tempting than before. 1.9 Where cloaked scouts give way to tanked scouts.

Passive Scanning on a scout will be dead. Sucks, but our main strength will then be in DODGING the scans (Like back in the old days) Remember, Active scans will still be a priority thing. Med frames will be scanning the front lines to keep track of targets. Damped scouts will dodge these scans, and sneak BEHIND their lines. Nobody really scans their own backfield, because it's a waste of resources. Scans are better spent in high traffic areas due to long cool down. Meanwhile, your TEAM will be scanning the area ahead of you, lighting up all non-scout frames. You will use these scans to position yourself, then de-cloak and wreck havoc. While they turn around to deal with you, frontlines push up, taking advantage of a flank opportunity. This might work in PC, and I hope that still makes you a viable Minja PC scout. I play in pubs... Solo... With the new Mu I am always against a squad... And I often avoid front lines to hack, which means I will need to carry my own scanner, or simply risk uncloaking and being seen.

Cloak while hacking objective is "almost" useless (if solo), the letters blink and not all enemies are so unaware. But after all i agree, cloak nerf will hurt more scout than light assault, i've skilled level 3 cal scout, i play light assault with it, fast recovery is the key, but if you have fast recovery with a lot HP it becomes unbalanced. I often run across people who know I am hacking something, and run around the installation looking for me, with passives allowing me to evade them.

Wish a DEV would make an official announcement that they want scout to be HP tanked not eWAR. team shared active scan made scout even more viable HP tanked. I only played a few games, so my perspective is fluid. It didn't really hurt me too much hacking wise, so far. Where it really stuck out was in freaking Uplink spam. In all 3 games I saw crapton's of it. The first two were the same GD GLORY squad thunderbolts, the last was my team with a squad or two of teams that just lit up a city with uplinks. In the first game, I was in one of the new maps (ironic to me how I jump right into a new map first thing when others have had to wait a lot of games) and ended up under one of the structures at the enemy's Homepoint. I could hear the Uplinks all around me, and when I briefly decloaked, I could see 4 to 6, all right near the objective. I noticed the same pattern that last game when my team spammed them. This could be a fluke situation given the small sample size, but it seemed to me like it would be easier to spam them without cloaked scouts doing their thing. I would think that Active Scanners would prevent that, but I didn't see the spam everyone was talking about yesterday in those 3 games. Maybe a little more than normal, but not much. I will keep you updated as things change and as I get some more games under my belt. One thing that makes this difficult is that they really need to do something about squads vs randoms. If you have a squad on one team, particularly of the same corp, you should stick them across from a similar kind of squad. Its freaking ridiculous to have to find a squad just to play a couple games and not want them to be blowouts. 1.9 Where cloaked scouts give way to tanked scouts. Problem solved?

At which point I tried spawning in my Thales to get my revenge, but he was gone by the time I was in position, so I looked into the city. I plinked Ghost a time or two, and some others, but with the range nerf and my rust sniping, I really didn't kill anyone. And apparently that regular sniper rifle is good because I got killed from 430 m away. Then I tried spawning near the city to drop an uplink at the enemy homepoint. And right when I was in the enclosed building placing the uplink, I was scanned (because my uplink fits don't have damps, for cost purposes, but that may change with this patch), killed from I don't know where (because I was cloaked and trying to be infiltratory, but you know how that is now), tried respawning in my link, but it was taken out before I could even try.

To achieve this the Gal logi bonus should be changed from precision to cooldown. There should also be an advanced focused scanner. You can keep the majority of Rattati's proposals like 15m passive range. I don't agree with removing the direction arrow, maybe just for active scanners. I could even agree with giving profile penalties to all hp mods, as long as it was still viable to use a little hp, and you take into account more scouts will be stacking precision. The fundamental idea I have, is the active scans are long range, designed for medium or heavy suits that engage at range. Passive scans are for CQC, designed for scouts and logis (consider reducing logi precision). The balance here should be kept similar to how it is now. Maybe easier for scouts to hide considering the hp mod nerf. With the Gal logi precision bonus it's just too hard for mediums to damp below scans in a competitive environment. Also, hp mods being fixed value bonuses, combined with scout low hitbox, speed and regen, naturally encourages scout tanking, which messes up the class. I completely agree with the scout ck.0 argument recently. That thing, with 4 shield extenders, is a better assault than an actual assault suit. It's a close run thing, and a better assault bonus may improve things. But that doesn't change the fact that scouts are inherently encouraged to stack hp. Just because it's shield doesn't make it ok. When you mean scanners specialized for scanning certain roles do you mean like scanners that can only scan scouts, or only medium frames? Like Scanners that only have a range of 30 dB to 15 dB? Or 60 dB to 45 dB? THAT would be interesting. 1.9 Where cloaked scouts give way to tanked scouts. Problem solved?

We always wanted to have cloaked players gradually appear with the swirling animation, as it actually is more noticieable than just "tada!". So now with put down delay, we added the animation back. As you don't see the animation in1st person, it may seem that you are firing out of cloak but you will be appearing in 3rd person view. Even if not 100% perfect, we didn't want to shaft the cloak, we want it to be just right and do small steps. Today's cloak is an improvement, and the better news is that the delay works as intended and we can continue working on it, which was only possible after the code change in 1.9.

I have had to gimp all my fits just to fit a proto cloak, and now have to run 200 hp. I die in two stray shots. People can just spam whatever weapon they want my way, and I am dead. I absolutely hate the range nerf. I was literally killed, while cloaked, because you know, the guy just got lucky because I am so invisible, from a Min Assault from 9 m away because he was f*cking not showing up on tacnet. There is zero reason for me to enjoy running Minja right now. This is just as frustrating as Alpha to Charlie. I can't play this game until they decide that they want real balance and don't want to simply balance around the Gal scout and making changes that only serve to make all other scout suits non viable. On top of that, not one match tonight was remotely close. Every match was a stomp. So incredibly frustrated right now. Hm, I switched to use Knives and BreachScP on my Cal scout and I am doing fine. In fact, I'm doing great! I love knives! The new cloak delay doesn't really bother me at all. It feels clunky at first, but I got used to it very quickly. The problem is that on a Cal Scout, you can dampen with less sacrifice than you would on a Minja. That gives you more room to add some shields. I switched to a CR from a ScP to better deal with shotgun scouts, but I might switch to the Breach ScP. Still probably waiting until balancing gets fixed.

Range is too low on all suits (please go back to Chromo values of 20 for everyone and 25 for scouts) Quite the contrary, it was the simplest and easiest way to add uncertainty to a system that was entirely too binary. Numbers need to be tweaked so that Scouts aren't -always- unscannable however, in my opinion. At <15m Scouts shouldn't be worrying about whether or not they've been discovered on their minimap with the way CQC options are right now. At that range you're usually already dead or can't see the icon on the minimap because it's too close to your own. Regardless of what you are suggesting, it is pretty much a non starter to ask a super low HP suit to be visible on tacnet. If you want us to be assault lights, just say so. Give all scouts base HP just shy of an Assault, and profile just a little bit better. It would be a crap suit and crap play style IMO, but it would be more viable than asking a scout to make significant sacrifices and still pop up on tacnet for heavies with insane HP and DPS with a weapon that is viable far beyond it's effective range, primarily against suits with 1/3rd to 1/5th the HP.

I will echo my thoughts on that post in short here: Nobody is going to fit 5 complex dampeners on a medium frame to evade scouts who put two precision enhancers on, or dampen up to avoid any of the other equally obscene scenarios. If putting on a single precision enhancer means medframes need 3 or 4 dampeners to evade it, they cannot be said to "have a place on the EWAR scene". Whether they should or not is not what I am contesting but your assertion that they are competitive in the EWAR field when they must fit 3-5 damps to evade single module investments by scouts is ludicrous. I will also echo mine. Scouts are supposed to be EWAR kings. They DO make significant sacrifices to do so. Not to mention that with the current range nerf to the cloak, they are either A) Able to pick up reds equal to or above their precision level, but remain scannable OR B) Cloak and remain unscannable, yet sacrifice any and all ability to use precision to their advantage. The only caveat is the Gallente, whose bonuses throw a wrench into the balancing of scouts vs other frames. People keep trying to balance around Gal scouts, while significantly affecting the viability of the other races. I wouldn't expect to throw on lots of shield/armor tank and compete with assaults via HP, so why should you expect that medium frames with significantly higher HP should compete with scouts on EWAR.

You only need activate proto cloak to dodge GA Logi + Focused. The best passives in the game are the AM Scout's at 18 dB. Three complex damps puts AM/MN Scout at 16 dB. If Assault Profile were lowered to 41dB, he could dodge AM Scout scans at an investment of 4 damps (17dB). Good call.

Where does that leave the other 29 suits? and 6 vehicles even. This is a game wide discussion and needs to apply to everything. We need to think biggest picture here. Last time I checked, HP made up a significant portion of that. Tanks are still incredibly powerful. LAVs are spammed across the map to give slow heavies the ability to move across the battlefield. Assaults can still easily kill scouts once they are identified. Though there is perhaps room here to give Assaults superior recharge that scouts currently have. Logis could using some buffing, and that can come with the EQ changes Rattati is discussing. Heavies are just as OP if not more OP than scouts, so lets not pretend they are hurting any.

My contention is that the sacrifice needed to get that superiority is so great (in most, but notably not all cases) is enough that it offsets the EWAR skills. I think Rattati, the guy with the data, is correct in believing that moving bonuses to module efficacy will make a significant shift toward removing the notable exceptions with regard to sacrifice. I believe this needs to happen first, because it is a reasonable, marginal adjustment, before we start getting crazy with complete removal of scout bonuses. All the other scouts, particularly the Minmatar (you remember your Identity Crisis between Alpha and Charlie Ghost?) keep getting the shaft from the nerfs while they are NOT solving the problem. We spent from 1.0 to 1.8 in utter irrelavance, and I will be damned if I let someone's perspective that scouts are OP, and therefore must be nerfed (particularly when I believe those nerfs will result in most scouts being back to pre 1.8 effectiveness).

IIRC, Min scouts had to run 3 complex damps and a cloak to avoid the 4x Cal scout, which pushed all scouts except Gal and Cal out of PC. Finding maths to prove my point. For example: The total bonus from 4x Precision is ~54.45% Old bonus was a 25% adjustment to base 36 precision becomes 27 base 27*(0.5445) = 14.7 = 15 Min Scout with two damps puts you at a 18.49 base. Old cloak reduced that to 13.86 = 14 Which means one of two things: A.) My math is wrong and something was different B.) I didn't have a proto cloak back then, hence my rage. All I remember is that I refused to do PC, and nobody ran Min Scouts in Alpha-Charlie days. Even Moody ran Cal scout in PC instead. Gal scouts did a better job hacking than Min Scouts, since they didn't have to run as many damps and could run 2x codebreakers and damps. Can anyone help me? Am I missing something? EDIT: Ah, that was when we removed the cloak bonus. Yup. that would do it. Thanks Appia. Pretty sure we couldn't even beat max Cal scans. At all, even with the pro cloak. It was rough times...

These units -- arguably the best wigglers around -- would walk away unscathed by a strafe nerf to vanilla plates. Because of these units, I'm inclined to agree with Rattati in that shields should also be under the scope. But for the MinScout! Most are extremely squishy and entirely reliant upon their shield buffer; their lows are committed damps, kincats or codebreakers (seldom King HP). A hefty sig nerf to shield extenders would assuredly slam the MinScout, but again, the uparmored CalScout dodges the bullet. What care hath the CalScout for stealth when we need only wiggle when fired upon? What to do ... what to do. You guys have any ideas? (TPLAK) I honestly don't see a problem at this point with the speed penalty to shields. Rattati made a good point that whatever generates that shield has weight. He also pointed out that it would be a much lower penalty because of lower weight, so I don't know that it would be too onerous a penalty. I think that giving how hard it is for Minmatar to beat scans as it is, if the penalty were to profile instead of speed that it would have a much greater detrimental effect for Minjas.

This is the thing I worry about across all suits and in Balance discussions. The tendency is to lump all things as a roleGÇª without the considerations about how it affects each suit in that role. This goes for Role Buffs and Nerfs, if one factional suit is doing much better than the others and you buff the role as a whole, we end up with the suit that was good before over performing, we nerf a role because one or two suits are over performing and the ones that war okay or under performing become way less viable. Factions all function under different principle as well, and some aspects of the role lend well to functions. Look at Commandos, Min Commando does great at AV(better than most suits), should all Commandos take a nerf to AV (assuming it were OP) or should the Min be adjusted. Arguments could be made that they have OP Wallhacks with the new Vehicle detection rangeGÇª and Commandos should not get that crutchGÇª (No i am not seriousGÇª but one day someone will say it seriously) Maybe sometimes we (Dust Community) should look at the bottom performer in the role and ask "is this working? Should we bring this up to the others or the others down to this? It may work better than nerf the role because XFaction is OP. I wish we had access to the data of the performance. I know Rattati showed us top 5 performers in PC, but I would like to see a larger list to see where all suits fit in. This would give us a better idea of what needs adjusted and what needs protected.

What if profile varied by tier? Standard suits have less PG/CU and all around stuff than do Adv or Proto. Perhaps the variance would only need to be 1 or 2 dB per tier. My intention is to give lower tier suits a little more viability, given the increased strengthening of proto level equipment, while not necessarily wanting to make standard better options than higher tier suits. I think this would also help out the NPE and those less skilled. Perhaps this would even give medium suits a more EWAR viability and versatility without overly infringing on scout roles. As I say, this is a very rough draft type idea, and perhaps you can think of reasons that this would not be a good idea, or perhaps you can think of some changes that would make this more viable or less able to be abused.

I kept having to fight my muscle memory that wanted to cloak up when I was out in the open, and I did die a lot more what with always being more visible and whatnot, but I did have some enjoyable moments. When team balance wasn't an issue that is. First match, I literally played against some of the most stupid players ever. I was just suiciding my way through the map (one of the newer ones, 3 point map with A as a bunker. That was all they had at one point, and I found a heavy/logi combo and just started letting my knives fly. Surprised the heavy enough that I killed him before he could react. Logi didn't have enough room to back pedal/circle strafe to get away, so after some ugly fighting, I finally killed him. Another heavy came in, and he may have finally killed me. Eventually I took the point. Mostly the enemy team was really bad and I got lots of easy kills. In one of the next games, I had one of the most amazing lucky head shots with the Breach ScP. I am still not very good with it, but we were around one of the outlying objectives with the circular socket and CRU. I think the point was ours, with a red or two attacking. I was shooting at him, and randomly swung my sights across the screen and managed to pull the trigger right when it was across his head. Not only was I surprised, but it didn't really help me any trying to figure out how to get headshots with that thing. When I am actively trying for them, I seem to only get body shots. Something hasn't quite clicked yet. Then I got into the normal horrible match making with 2 squads on the enemy team, a couple times. The second being on Ashland with us having the E home point. That is a horrible place for being redlined. Couldn't do squat. Got enraged, and remembered why I harbor some hate for Dust. As a whole, I am finding even wearing a Quaffe suit and running just a little over 30K Isk and not breaking even. I am regularly dying several more times as a result of not being cloaked, but I no longer find the cloak worth the anger and frustration. I actually had fun moments knifing and playing not using the cloak, and if they could get the balance back to something manageable and increase ISK payouts for losing non - AFKers then maybe I could play more regular.

Absolutely boggles my mind. I think I understand the why people are against removing the knife bonus. However, I think with my suggested changes, Minmatar scouts would be equal, or at least near enough to Gallente scouts for knifing. Think about it, both could dampen well with two damps. Ok, Gallente could have faster sprint with two Kincats, but Min scouts have faster walk/run speed and better stamina and stamina regen. All good for knifing. Minmatar would also have the hacking bonus and the high slots to really capitalize on it assuming high slot codebreakers. If you threw on a Complex Cardiac Reg and a Complex Kincat on the Gal Scout, why would anyone need to run Minjas? The small amount of difference isn't worth all the SP to invest in the suit, and it can't come anywhere close to competing with the versatility of the Gal Scout. You are also assuming Codebreakers to Highs, which though I might like the idea, it has already been looked into by Rattati and it is too great an undertaking given what it would accomplish and what could be accomplished elsewhere for the same amount of work. At this point in time, it is a Minja killer. We become novelties for those who still love the Minja for its Minjaness. All others will simply use the more effective and versatile Gal Scout.

One Eyed King Land of the BIind 6326	Posted - 2014.12.03 22:03:00 - [1118] - Quote I hope this works. It makes me nervous that assaults can encroach so much into Scout territory, particularly when many of our racial bonuses are geared towards EWAR. It just feels like we are addressing the scout problem by making everyone else more like scouts. At some point I wonder if people who really want to play the scout role may not just do better in other suits... Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

Just speculation of course, but those are slapping distances. It will make knifing more difficult, particularly with heavies. I try to avoid raptor jumping when I can because it is rather difficult to judge speed and distance, particularly when suits run at different speeds both walking/sprinting, and then between races/fits. Now that I can be pretty much scanned by anyone, that makes it MUCH more difficult. I have no margin of error now. Before, if I missed, which often happens with people moving at the last minute and timing being ever so slightly off, I can sometimes make up for it with a 2nd go if the person isn't listening very well. Heck, I would often still be killed after a charged shot on an Amarr heavy who didn't know I was coming... Now I have to hit him, and kill him in one go or I am toast. I can't miss or he'll see me. I hope I am completely wrong about everything, but I am afraid I won't be...

I don't like it either, but I am trying to take the long view of it. I initially anticipate it really hurting scouts as a whole (since even flipping heavies can get some sort of quasi scout role...), and believe it will be amended ant tailored in the future to make things better again. I think it will be messy, because with this amount of complexity it means adjusting one thing that is imbalanced makes what was actually balanced imbalanced (see many of the scout changes recently and how they take suits/roles that were not over performing and making them less viable). But I also think that at least they will work on it. And maybe give me a boy scout patch for putting up with this stuff. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

One Eyed King Land of the BIind 6346	Posted - 2014.12.04 20:45:00 - [1127] - Quote So a thought just occurred to me... It has been awhile since we talked about charging NKs while sprinting. Previously, I was always dead set against it as it would have made knifing super OP. Quil's comment about Rattati needing to bring down the shotgun a bit (though it affects Knifers despite any suggestion so far that our data similarly shows we are OP), in combination with the new scan mechanics makes me think it needs a second look. Consider Quil's math on having to catch up walk speed vs walk speed regarding other suits. When it comes to lone heavies, a lot of times I charge while walking a few meters away so they don't hear me charge, and so I don't risk Raptor Jumping right past them. Now, I could very well show up on their tacnet even if they don't hear me. Even though they would end up surviving my Charged Ishukones anyways. Do any of you think that a charge while sprinting mechanic in 1.10 and beyond, given what we know so far, would make knifers over perform like it would have pre 1.10? Thunderbolt. verb and noun.

I like have always liked the idea of including inertia in the movement, not just for knifing but for all the strafing complaints.

It's way too easy to 1 shot a suit now, it would just become another shotgun. The backpedal penalty would be really nice. It would almost offset the pain of the cloak becoming unusable :( Think 1.10, not now. Things are changing. They are nerfing the shotgun scouts that need the nerf, and we are catching as much of the blow back. You won't be able to dodge short range scans. You won't be able to take on multiple targets because of shared scanning. If you miss, you will show up on their radar, and all they have to do is spin and blow you away. Minjas aren't over performing, as far as I know, but we are still getting as much of a nerf as anyone else, and I am trying to think of changes we can make as early as possible so that when we see how 1.10 affects us so we can make whatever changes necessary to bring us back into balance without removing the changes that are nerfing the over performing scouts. What may lead to over performance in the current circumstances might not be under different ones. It is not too early to think ahead. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

If you could sprint and charge they would have to get a pretty sharp damage decrease to balance the change. If you could sprint charge with the current damage numbers they'd be ridiculous. So I'll do some spitballing myself. What about frontloading the damage into the first strike? So that instead of 50% for each strike, it's more like 60 for the first 40 for the second. Actually on second thought I don't know if that would be a buff or a nerf, so maybe not. Which strike is more likely to hit, I wonder? Backpedal speed reduction pretty much needs to happen, I see no reason for it to remain the way it is. I don't know of any other FPS games with 100% backpedal, so I doubt it would be missed by the average player. I don't think NKs need a damage buff, and I don't think they should give increased move speed. Though as a knifer I would love extra speed, it would certainly be abused and it's a pretty inelegant solution. I'm not completely opposed to it, but I don't like the idea of people running around with knives out just so they can get around faster. The dream fix would be reduced backpedal speed + a damage efficiency bonus to backstabs imo, but I doubt the latter would be easy to implement. Another fix I would like to see is an increase to minnie scout walk speed, but I don't know if walk speed and sprint speed are values that can be adjusted independently. A wider swing arc on KNs would also be great. (While we're filling out the christmas wish list, codebreakers getting moved to high slots would be pretty amazing too) We agree that under the current system they should not get sprint charge. And we agree that backpedal speed should be reduced, regardless what happens like Quil says. My concerns have nothing to do with damage, so I have no problem with where they are in terms of damage. My issues are with circumstances surrounding knifing and how they will be changing in 1.10, how it is very dampening dependent, is more greatly affected by the small field of vision than any other weapon, unbeatable short range scans, super duper squishiness, and shared passives. I can't think of any other play style, other than perhaps AV, that makes as many concessions in order to do its role. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

Pleased to oblige :-) Spitballing ... First, we head off a resurrection of the post-1.8 invisible monster (800HP GalScout) with Echo HP drawbacks. Then, we restore cloak active dampening bonus to ease pressure on the Min Scout. Next, we balance modules by making King HP somewhat less attractive and other modules more attractive. Biotics get a fitting reduction. If we're lucky, codebreakers get moved to Highs. The effectiveness gap between MinScout and GalScout narrows. Lastly, we accept that Dust is better off with passive scans giving way to active scans. We make cloak into a tool best used for travel (increased sprint speed, less shimmer) rather than retooling it for half-hearted reconnaissance ... or removing delay and inviting a return to cloak-delivered frontal attacks. Now what to do with the roles of AM Scout and CA Scout? I like those ideas. It reads like a glorious fairy tale. I need to go home and sleep... Thunderbolt. verb and noun.

Scouts are so broken in terms of SP. If you want to run a decent scout in this meta, you need maxed fitting skills, Damp V, Cloak V and Suit V. It's crazy. Mainly the cloak is the issue, since it's almost impossible to run a decent cloak on a scout that ISN'T to lvl 3. And Basic cloaks are trash anyways. Seriously, Rattati, if you're reading this, do the newbro scouts a favor. Life is probably hell for them. I'm fairly certain that I had it easier, and I was a new bro in Cal Logi/Tac AR days. Agreed. This should happen regardless of other possible changes. I have problems running my Quaffe fits with all my cores maxed and lots of weapons options etc. I can't imagine having to be a new player trying to make it. Thunderbolt. verb and noun.

Originally it was felt 0.3 seconds was good, then it was bumped up to 1.0 seconds because it apparently wasn't enough, when in fact it wasn't working properly. What I want the MOST: for the glitch where decloaking gets canceled by sprinting to be fixed. Yay!!!! I agree with No. 1 lots. I love No. 4. That was the biggest reason that I wouldn't fit a cloak anymore. I will have to try it out again and see if it is not as frustrating. Never knew about No. 5, but it does explain some things I was experiencing, and couldn't fully understand why it was happening. Lastly, I think 1 second is a good place.

I actually didn't have a problem being scanned, to my knowledge. All the suits I ran had 2 damps, and my fittings screen said I was getting down to 18 dB. The first game or so I didn't bother running a cloak, and that seemed to help more than anything, but I still encountered the RE delay switching to a weapon, which is freaking annoying and hopefully a glitch and not a stealth nerf. But then I was dying moving around a lot because I was at 250ish HP. I don't think I ran into any Amarr scouts. Most were Gal with a few Cal and Min thrown in. The rest were Heavy/Logi/Assaults. And I swear I knifed one Heavy twice with Ishukones and he still had 900 HP left when he gunned me down. Mostly though, it was the team balance. If we were dominating them, there was nothing for me to infiltrate or stealth hack unless it was the sole Red objective, which is just suicidal. If we were getting dominated, it was 16 guys scattered all over the place and driving vehicles looking for something to kill and converging on anything I tried to hack. I think if there were some sort of balance I could deal with the other issues as I had in 1.7 and before, but all games are so unbalanced now that its just too much.

I actually like the idea of an AV RE. The only problem with them is that in order to use any, you have to wait the full activation time to release an additional RE. Tanks have become used to the sound now, plus they show on scans, and it is pretty much a death sentence to even try. I haven't used REs for AV for months, especially now that PLCs and Swarms are much more effective at chasing them away, with much less risk to the user. But what function will regular REs have? My main use of them was to lay traps at objectives, which by and large isn't affected by activation time. Once they became sticky and throw-able, everyone started using them , combining with fluxes being the most viable grenade, and REs showing on active scans, and their effectiveness there has significantly decreased. This has led to them, for me, being more effective for impromptu traps. In which case activation time is everything. I don't even care about throwing distance, which is as much a grenade aspect as activation is, if not more so. I bet if you could only lay REs like you could pre 1.7, you would see many less complaints about "RE grenades." Now I am only even able to use them on 2 objectives at a time given BW and the suits I run, and if activation time is increased, I will personally just stop running them. No sense on spending all the ISK on equipment that is ineffective to me. This is obviously just a personal opinion. Maybe others will still use them enough. If you feel the need to make the change, by all means. Just keep this in mind as you look at your data should you see REs go from being spammed to not worth other mercs' ISK as well.

The sooner we migrate what remains of Assault Lite, the sooner our class statistics will represent our actual class performance, and the sooner we'll see changes in Scout/Heavy PC meta. Additionally, areas of the class could use tuning, but in some cases we can't propose tuneups in good conscience until Assault Lite is eliminated from the equation. For example, we can't propose meaningful improvements to cloak (or cloak variants) while 800+ HP Scouts are running around with Shotguns and Breach ARs. I don't think that the old anti-assault-lite plan (efficacy-based bonuses) is a good idea at this time. Passive Scans have been devalued, and rolling out EWAR efficacy bonuses which force AM/CA Scouts into range extenders would add insult to their injury. Role redesignation from passive recon to something else is likely the better idea for these units, but in talking "something else" for AM/CA Scouts, it'd be nice if we could rule out potential perk abuse by AM/CA Assault Lite. Thank you for your consideration. o7 @ OG Scouts Are you guys in agreement here? If I'm off target, please let me know. Here are some tuneups I have in mind but can't request on account of Assault Lite: * Improve cloak active damp bonus; decrease cloak shimmer * Redesignate roles and racial perks for AM / CA Scout * Widen speed gap on account of MN Assault (class-wide speed buff) I realize that low HP will leave us at disadvantage, but I believe that the disadvantage will be short term. When our performance slumps, we'll be in better position to request sharper tools and sneakier shenanigans. I am all for fixing the AssLite problem. At this point my suits are already broken, and if breaking them further eventually gets us to really balancing them, I see no reason not to. I don't necessarily think ALL modules need to be efficacy based, particularly seeing where Range Enhancers are right now (and are there for good reason). Also, do you think that it is time for us to revisit the notion of any particular scouts having bonuses to cloaking? I know it was not appealing before, but perhaps we will be overly constraining ourselves in future iterations. @ Duncan I think he only brought up mk.0s because those have 3 Low Slots vs 2 on Std and Adv.

Any suit with more base HP could get more from using them so the cap on HP would be a totally natural one. This would require revisiting all frames basic HP values but we could have really good stuff with this. If shield extenders (or armor plates) were +10%, with stacking penalties, frames that are tanky stay tanky, frames that are light get a lot less, and abuse automatically becomes impossible. It also fits in perfectly since the modules are enhancing the frames built in performance, not adding new functionality. Scout: 150 Shield +10% -> +15 HP and if you stack a second shield extender then stacking penalties begin as normal Assault with 300 Armor +10% armor plate -> 330 Armor, adding another plate would stacking penalty Heavy with 600 Shield +10% -> +60 HP, again, adding more would have stacking penalties from there. Just an idea. This has been brought up SEVERAL times. Though I'm more of a fan of "Light, Medium, and Heavy" Shield Extenders / Armor plates. Heavy frames would have the most CPU/PG, but their weapons and modules will cost a TON. Mediums would be unchanged. Lights would have the least, and would likely be forced to use "Specialist" weapons to run decent weapons. Their modules would be the cheapest in terms of PG/CPU This would make it harder to HP tank out of a suits intended range. You wanna equip a heavy shield mod on a Med Frame? You better be willing to sacrifice a LOT of CPU/PG for it. It has definitely been brought up. And while I personally like the idea, to my memory, CCP has been on record as not liking the idea.

While you don't get near the profile, or range, you still get all that tank, which seems to be more of a factor than the other things, while being harder, though not impossible, to scan. Let us know how it plays. Also, that was ballsy to get rid of your Gal Scout and go for the Minja. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

I hadn't believed this to be the case, but PC data must be suggesting otherwise. As far as PC Heavies go, it wouldn't surprise me to see half a team running GA/AM Sentinel, and I can't recall the last time I saw an MN or CA Sentinel. On the other hand, I've lately seen more MN and CA Assault in competitive play than AM or GA. I still hope to see King HP reigned in a 'bit for the sake interplay with non-tanky builds, but perhaps now is not the time. Perhaps that is the case for heavies because none of them can really strafe. At the faster ends of the spectrum, with Assaults and Scouts, Shields enable straffing more than Armor. Maybe once he gets that issue addressed he will be more able to make appropriate changes to shield and armor. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

I got the magical double knife kill with one set of swipes, and killed the third before they knew what hit them and ran off. I wish I knew who I had knifed, but I knew that that there must have been another scout in the area and was too intent on saving my skin. Was near A on the back ridge by the CRU at another point, cloaked, and heard an NK swipe that killed my team mate running behind me. I was waiting for it in my back, and turned around to see Ghost running for the CRU. I somehow managed to kill him with my SMG before he got too far.

It doesn't need to be a passive bonus. I like my Minja's speed, but that matters to me less than the knife and hacking bonus. As you point out, the marginal difference in their superior speed is already significantly low enough that it is probably no different in terms of perception. Without a Dampening bonus like the Cal and Gal have, the Amarr will be making a great sacrifice to speed tank, especially since they don't have quite the range anymore with the other nerfs.

Everyone pretty much knew everyone else, and even if you didn't recognize their name, you had respect for them just for wearing a scout suit. I hardly recognize anyone in SU anymore.

That is why there is no such thing as a free lunch, because even if you went out and scavanged and killed an animal with a rock, and started the fire with your hands, you paid the physical effort and time toward your goal. People can be loyal to something that they have spent a lot of time and effort on, even without spending money. People can care so little about money, that it becomes meaningless to them and affords no loyalty whatsoever. The game obviously depends on both paying players and non paying. So far, it has done a good job of striking the balance between giving an advantage to someone paying (booster buyers reducing their grinding time etc) without making it pay to win. I will say I was concerned in reading through the PC ideas that there is some room for Loyalty Ranking to become too big a factor, given how much more significantly monetary payments weigh compared to in game time, but it is so far out in terms of time and specifics that we should probably wait to see exactly how it is put in place before we can say there is a problem of it being too pay to win or even not rewarding paying customers enough.

How do you get those that have proto to spend money? You add another time sink that can be shortened with AUR. It is a way to keep people buying AUR after they have proto. I bought boosters to get proto faster. I bough AUR suits to use them before I was proto. I only buy AUR now to add to my collection of BPO's or respec because I have proto in everything I use. I have no use of boosters or AUR suits, weapons, or modules other than BPO's. I payed to win sooner even though I still lose, lol. I see no difference with the loyalty ranks. CCP has to have a way to get people to spend money and make a profit or they lose. They do it with time sinks. Have noticed a lot of non free games going to same route. you can buy boosters for many games to lvl faster. FarCry 4 being one of them and I think I even seen one for the new Dragon age. Its all about money even though CCP is giving players a free game to play they have to make money some how. Agreed. And I think those that have a business model similar to that where they can monetize impatience essentially is a good way of doing things. That doesn't mean we shouldn't be wary of them crossing any lines in the future. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants." "I lit a bag of thunderbolt on fire on CCP's doorway"

I have no clue if that re was basic, adv, proto because I don't recall the enemy getting a kill with them during the game. But I mean I looked at it within a few feet and then ran over it then looked at it again from a different angle. No clue what the scan profile is of remotes, I don't run precision mods on my suit. Personal preference I like it the way it is obviously. The things are easy to see on the ground, easy to hear when they are tossed (unless tossed from up high, wouldn't mind some kinda height limit or distance traveled limitation. the distance thing could screw with killing tanks though) and easy to destroy. 1 thing I don't really dig is standing up high (top of building, pipes) and dropping down water balloons on top of people. Is there some kinda way of limiting that I wonder. Yes I have done it, but I'd rather not being able to. There is zero danger to it. What if the REs exploded if they traveled so far in the air, like MDs seem to if you try to shoot them too far. I don't know if that is even possible without the quirks of Re "range" and being able to blow them from hundreds of meters away. @ Tritus If you are running what you are, you may want to avoid engagements entirely, and consider throwing on some damps and a scanner. You should be focused on not dying, and use those scans to identify areas that have lots of activity, and stick with hacking undefended areas. I think that Enhanced Extenders are the best bang for your buck in terms of HP, ISK, and fitting cost. Its kind of hard to run too cheap a fit, because then you become ineffective. I found that my sweet spots in the past involved ZNs so I could get kills outside of heavies, and damps to stay off radars. Once you get your Minmatar to level 5, I found that the passive hacking bonus was enough to do some good damage to objectives and installations without having to throw on codebreakers and sacrifice dampening and fitting costs. Do consider Flaylock, they are excellent for taking out shotgun scouts, and EQ which can net you those WP. Lastly, don't be afraid to leave some of your module slots blank and splurge on a good module. Some MLT items may not be worth fitting if they aren't strong enough to be effective, like shields. Mostly just play around with suggestions until you find what fits your play style. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

The game now is significantly different than the game then. Its not the time of insane Lazors, or scouts so fast they could weave through an HMG head on and kill the heavy. I am not asking for a ridiculous change to back pedal, but a reasonable change. I don't want the game to be imbalanced, and if a 80% or 85% decrease to backpedal speed leads to real problems, then it can be adjusted. I don't think it should just be restricted to melee weapons being faster either. I often backpedal when I see a shotgunner and pull out my non-NK weapon. Often times, they had me dead to rights, yet I was able to survive or even take them out because of this broken mechanic. The art of surprise is paramount to a scout, and now that EWAR has evened the playing field, I don't think that reducing backpedal to 80% is unreasonable to at least attempt.

I will make a post below this one to get people back onto the cool idea that has been kicked around in this topic. I have also brought up the backpedal speed in MQ only because it exists differently. I don't suggest that it has to be the same level as MQ backpedal, only less than what forward movement is. I look forward to your suggestion, but be aware that I am skeptical as to why you think Dust should be the ONLY shooter I know of that has forward/backward movement at the same speed.

(Let me know what you think in 2 sentences what a PC should be.) Things I think we need to fix in today's configuration (Correct me if I am wrong): 1. We need smaller corps to be able to participate (There are just too many barriers for these guys with no pay off) 2. we need bigger corps to allow for C and D line to play instead of just the A and possibly the B line (Having 100 active members in a corp will reduce the number of players who can participate in a PC when there is 1-3 a month with 16 people playing making, 3 times the usual isk. The A team will show up to that every time.) 3. We also need attacks\defenses to be less costly for smaller corps (This is closely related to number 1) 4. We need districts to be worth taking (There isn't very much purpose to hold a district. ISK gained is negative in most cases.) 5. Stop the big corps from sitting on districts and excluding other corps (This is a tough one because some corps will just flip to alternates and sit on a different district with the same effect. Just thinking outloud but maybe a passive isk gained like passive sp that gets buffed by having a district. One per account? This problem will be tough to overcome.) 6. Reduce the timers to attack or defend (PCs need to occur more quickly or more regularly so the casual player can participate. I have lots of ideas about this but I want to know if people see this as a problem if we make PCs viable again.) Please quote this post and add in you stance on how to improve the PCs/District Ownership. I have more problems I will be including after I see the response to this. I have never PC'd, so I can't usually offer details, but as a general idea, there needs to be a tiered system of districts such that small corps can jump into lower tiers and work their way up. I think the lower tier districts should be more plentiful, and create a scarcity of higher tier districts to make sure large corps can't just sit on a bunch and be ok.

I agree there are problems with the SG (though it has broken parts as well, ie HD), but I don't think reducing its Alpha damage is the answer. That would be like taking away knifing alpha for range.

This makes it available to commandos & assaults too. There's a measure of risk involved in getting yourself within 5m of your opponent. That risk is appropriately rewarded by the shotgun's high alpha. Your proposal would lessen both risk and reward of shotgunning, effectively diluting the weapon into a bad, short-range rifle. Do we not already have a sufficient number of rifles? What risk is there in sprinting and jumping at someone who can't see you and then putting 1200+ dmg into them before they can effectively react? Even if people survive the third shot they don't have enough hp to actually do anything to you, so no, there is no real risk. I think the situation is exaggerated. Having knifed heavies who survive a charged proto NK attack from a Minja, only to see them spin around wildly with the HMG blazing and killing me in a fraction of a second before I can re position myself, it seems they have PLENTY of time to react. One heavy claimed it took them 3 to 4 seconds to kill them, and was COMPLAINING that was too quick! I don't like shotgunning from cloak, and if that still isn't fixed that is definitely a problem, but changing the Alpha on them as a whole is not a good solution. Thunderbolt. verb and noun.

I would like you to put the following in order of importance: killing, Hacking, using equipments, destroying equipments, defending Null Cannons, attacking Null Cannons, AV. If you can thing of other roles a scout fulfill add them, I'm mostly talking about things that can be rewarded by WPs. Thank you. 1) Hacking I run a Minja, and I have always seen hacking, and I always play Skirmish, so I am biased here. 2) Killing. Its hard to hack or defend hacked points/objectives without killing, asking them to kindly go never seems to work. 3) Defending/Attacking Null Cannons. You can only do this to a point. If a Null Cannon is too well defended, you cannot attack it alone. If the console is too enclosed, its best not to even attempt with a group. If defending, it depends on the number of people attacking and their relative coordination and skill level. Some are oblivious and let you pick them off one by one. Others stick together, and if they have a scanner you can't even set traps. 4) Using/Destroying EQ Bandwidth has killed EQ (in Pubs at least).

You separate them and they're just sheep waiting for the wolves to get them. You keep 'em together though, on some high ground maybe then they're going to give the stompers a run for their money.

Melee is one of the few things that can be done from cloak, and I am really thinking the max it should get maxed out would be enough to OHK scouts, but not much else. Plus it would be at the cost of running Precision, so they would have to use their eyes for the dampened scouts. I don't think it should hit as hard as the Minmando when decked out, but considering the Amarr scout will be much faster and have EWAR and a smaller hit box on their side, I can see it being a fun fit.

As I have explained I was trying to make a fit without PG/CPU mods AND have the cheapest small turrets, to demonstrate exactly the plight of HAV fitting. Second, "we don't have PRO tanks". If you had really tried to understand the concept of the bring back initative, it was to create ADV and PRO hulls, that would be able to fit their hulls closer to how dropsuits progress through std-pro. Again, my fits demonstrate exactly how far from HAV pilots are from being able to do that with current hulls and skills. I lol'd so hard. That alone was worth reading through the thread. That being said, if you haven't at least checked out the first post, I would take a look.

I have been playing BF again, 4, and there is a certain freedom, if you will, in all movement, jumping, aiming, shooting , running. Can any one, tell me, or do basic research on comparative walk speeds, jump height, camera movement, ie,pitch and yaw speed, run speed as a % of walk speed. I am trying to figure out if there is a sweet spot, that we can get too by increasing forward walk speed overall. Don't base it off of Scouts though, but if you tell me scouts are closer to bf4 than assaults, then that helps. Can you for once think about snipers before you go and tweak any form of speed please? I know that other games feel more fluid for walking and jumping, but those games also give aim assist to all weapons to make up for harder to hit targets. In its current form sniping players is already rough as nobody stand still, and us snipers are confined to using only one of the two movement sticks, while being incompletely immobile and in danger of counter attacks. I believe increasing any speeds at this time would require aim assist added to every weapon to compensate for hard to track strafe dance we currently have. I came into this game during open beta about 2 years ago as a sniper. Speeds were MUCH higher then than they are now. Granted, the sniping game was in a much better place, and rendering was much less an issue, but I never found speed to be an issue. I always led my target, and let them run into my recticle. Sniping isn't easy, and isn't supposed to be. I think my biggest problem with it at this point is that the zoom on the scope is not enough, and now you are trying to snipe a small target with a small recticle, and the rendering issue. Speed I think should not really be taken into consideration. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants." "I lit a bag of thunderbolt on fire on CCP's doorway"

Knives have so little AA you might as well say its non existant. With EWAR changes, not only can Assaults beat scout passive scans, but there is nothing that any scout can do to evade short range scans within NK range. Name another shooter that has forward and backwards motion at the same speed? If a knifing scout gets the drop on you, and you can't take them out before they kill you, you deserve to go down.

I have to start off with flux or ar and switch to smg to finish off sentinels fast. I thought that was the tactic of the game of shield and armor. But I guess if you have NK you do not have to use tactics of changing weapons. You only need the single weapon. They use the excuse after 1st hit the target jumps and backpedals and they can not catch up quick enough. I call that BS because they can switch to another weapon the same as anyone else that REALLY wants to get the kill would. If they have NK's in both weapon slots or no other weapon then I guess they are not very smart in the first place. If they make backpedal slower then I think they should nerf the alpha dmg of NK's and shotguns to go with it. How do you figure? The alpha damage of shotguns and NKs are what make scouts viable in an FPS where they have significantly less HP than their counterpart. I run 200 to 300 HP max, and you want me to go toe to toe with an Assault that has twice the HP or more? That isn't the role. The role is to ambush, and to be able to better wield high alpha weapons better than the other suits. If we miss, if we are spotted, if we try and go head to head, we should be dead. If they wear 1 Precision Enhancer, I can't beat their passive scans in short range unless I use 2 Complex Damps and a Proto Cloak, and trying to do that with the delay right within short range is just insane.

A quick fix for the problem would be to tune falloff such that inner rings allow for an extended "early warning" period. Better yet, reverse the nerf to Range Extenders such that players can opt to equip a module which helps them react to unseen CQC threats more readily. Balance is process. It's about give and take. If fixing backpedal speed were to fudge up something else, you can bet we'd propose and support appropriate corrective actions. what good is early warning when you are already in the kill zone and can not escape it. As opposed to when I am caught in the open and have no cover to get out of the way of someone with any kind of rifle or even an HMG from 50m out? This game is meant to have people with strengths and advantages. If a 200 HP scout can't be reasonably expected to be able to kill any other suits given any circumstances, why even have them in game? I get no warning if a sniper has a bead on me, or anyone else carrying anything else for that matter. Does that mean I shouldn't have to die because its unfair? I honestly don't get the point of this or how you think this is remotely OP. Its not like we are saying they can't fire their weapon while moving backwards or that they should only move half as fast backwards... I even use this against shotgun scouts, and will probably die more often than the extra kills I get with the changes. The bottom line is that in any number of circumstances backwards speed equaling forwards speed is a broken mechanic that is exploitable, whether it is against NKers, or Assault vs HMG when the heavy is able to catch the Assault unaware.

There has been a lot of talk since I was last on, but I thought this the most relevant and wanted to address it. I understand your concern, and I think it is valid. No scout should be able to wiggle wiggle through bullets head on. I think it more reasonable to say both should be fixed and balanced than to defend one broken mechanic instead of another. I personally agree with the notion that there should be some sort of inertia. Samantha Hunyz wrote: Scout speed was faster before yes, but player wiggle was less frequent. Not to mention there used to be a ton of slow tanked logis, not these wannabe scout sped up ones of the present. Snipers used to be effective counters for the heavies and logis alike. Now CCP wants to possible speed up all players to make movement easier for the whole game. Kinkat strafing heavies are already somewhat of a pain, wait till they get this strafe buff while the shooting mechanics of sniping are still prehistoric beta. up to and through 1.4 getting 16 kills per game was not an issue. 1.5 brought bad rendering and hit detection. A little later and the whole player base decided to turn this game into Dance Dance Revolution. In the end, it doesn't matter to me where this game heads, but every patch that puts snipers further behind reduces my appeal to play this game. If CCP could at least remove the sway from the left stick while crouched I could see playing this game full time again and look for a competive corp to join, even with a speed increase. Every other fraking class gets two thumb sticks to aim with. I also want to address this for the same reasons. I think the complaints about moving with the left stick while sniping and some of the other sniping mechanics are in need of fixing as well. I still snipe on occasion, and its quite annoying to want to just slide over a smidge, but not be able to because of how things are, or to try and make fine adjustments but not be able to because the ADS sensitivity is greater than one would like because its the same ADS sensitivity used with other rifles, and what works for one does not work for the other. Again, I would rather fix the real issues than to leave broken mechanics in to offset other broken mechanics. Thunderbolt. verb and noun. "James thunderbolted in his pants."

For instance, the increased movement speed multiplier on the officer knives whilst charged seems like an adequate way to ensure you can keep pace with your victim. It doesn't involve changing the base movement of everything in the game, it involves a change specifically for addressing this one issue. There are side effects from this, of course (people might fit knives as a sidearm to get around slightly quicker - though this will be mitigated by only charging whilst not sprinting so you don't just use them to run everywhere, and I don't think this is much of a problem) but they're not nearly as severe as the other potential solution. It would mean that when you are charging your knives and your victim is backpedalling, you are moving substantially faster than them without necessarily crippling any other forms of movement. But this still doesn't fix other issues related to back pedal speed. Not only does this work against me for knives, but it works for me against shotguns. If I spot any shotgunner, I immediately start to back pedal and pull out whatever non NK weapon I happen to be equipping at the time. I have occasionally had success against HMG heavies as well. I don't like either play style(shotgunners/HMG heavies), and I think I will actually net more deaths than kills as a result of the changes, but I think them necessary. Thunderbolt. verb and noun.

Pulled my knives back out as well, dancing around each other only... He had pulled out his unloaded gun. In the heat of battle, I think again, "Oh Crap" and again pull out my SMG, which was still empty because I never let it reload before switching the first time. Idiot. AGAIN he pulls out his knives, because this was CQC, and he couldn't be bothered to reload his weapon either. AGAIN I think, "Sweet! Knife Duel finally!" Again, he pulls out his empty weapon.

I have been running them on my Gal scout. I know this is unorthodox but I believe it can still work. I am familiar with using a SG and I am a good shot with it so I am used to getting in close etc but knives are a different animal. There have been several times when I was sure I had a kill but somehow missed. Am I getting too close? Is that even possible? Results have not been great. I have trouble with moving targets and catching mercs from behind. I am running 2 Kin cats but you can't sprint while charging. I know about the sprint/jump/charge technique but sigh I haven't been clacked up either. Is this bad too? Am I doing it all wrong? Can anyone point me to resources to help me get better? youtube, a thread, etc or offer any wisdom.? I am determined to become proficient with cutlery before DUST gets turned off. Thanks in advance and stay gold. Knifing takes a lot of time to get used to. It took me 3 to 4 months, and the Shinobi Event over a year ago to really get proficient. Stick with non moving targets at first, just to give you an idea. Moving targets are super hard to kill, in part because they can move so quickly outside of that little efficacy range. If you want to take on moving targets, learn the raptor jump near your home spawn by yourself. Sprint, Jump, Charge, and release a fraction of a second before landing. I now find cloaking to be more of impediment when knifing, its too clunky, especially if equipped by inactive. Stick with light and medium frames for the time being wherever practicable. Especially if its a moving target. Lastly, according to Rattati, the EWAR changes have made knifing less effective, so you are trying it at one of its harder points. Just beware that if you are wanting to do it, it may take some patience and time. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

Some interesting notes that were left out were that we have had 3 actual patches (vs thinking we never were going to get any again) and as of Feb 3 are playing Warlords 1.0 Not Chromosome 1.X. @ Active Dampeners I don't know how to feel about these. On the one hand, I hate the cloak, and this will now give me something to run on my dampening fits to beat those scans so I don't have to fit the fuxing clack. On the other, a big reason I still used it was for its dampening, and this all but spells doom for its viability. I may, depending on fitting costs, run and Adv Cloak and Active Damp for my hacking suit, but I will certainly be taking the cloak off my max dampened fit if the decrease is significant enough. Here is the question though... Will the active damp have the same delays of the cloak? Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

No delays on activation/deactivation; short effect duration; moderate cooldown. It won't be a "Scout toy"; rather, it'll be something anyone can fit. As there's no change in visibility, you'll be able to "click it on" then do whatever you want for a 'bit (including killing) with a lessened profile. This will give dampened Assaults the ability to briefly duck GA Logi scans to pull off a flank attack or push into CQC range. So allowing Assaults to further infringe on our roles? That I don't care for. Maybe if we didn't already have our EWAR changes, but considering how close they are already to outscouting us, I don't like where this may lead.

Logis as a whole get a little 'bit better, without disturbing class parity Assaults as a whole get a little 'bit worse, without disturbing class parity Good intention, bad idea. Swamping Logistics and Assault speeds doesn't solve your problem with the Matari Assault, which if I read correctly was that it was as fast as a Scout. All it does is cause the Logistics to be the ones causing your problem, as opposed to the Assault. Given how the main role of Logistics is team support, speed is one of the things that they don't need as they most often find themselves behind the front providing said support and triage (and babysitting Sentinels). It'd be most practical to buff their HP to offset their lower speed and offensive capabilities. But its not JUST that it has the speed, but that it also has that speed with more HP. You can speed tank a MinAss and get scout like speeds with much better HP. If you are at proto, you now have some room to throw in Damps as well, maybe more shields, etc. The reason I don't think the switch (though its impossible to say for sure without seeing it) is because I don't think its possible for Logis to get both the speed AND the HP advantage on scouts. I also think this is a problem at the Commando level where they are significantly slower than Assaults, yet sometimes have much lower HP, especially when you take into account their significant EWAR disadvantages compared to medium frames now. They need something to change in the way of the HP/Speed dynamic as well. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

It's just 360 degree rotation at whatever speed you set. And it is independent of the vehicle speed. A minja running a certain speed from 0 to let us say 18 m/s involves animating it at a walking speed and all the way through to the maximum. And if you think about how many joints you have to animate, imply inertia/physics, etc.. it can begin to look ridiculous ya know? Haha.. you couldn't even mocap that ****. But I was thinking instead of speeding the animation up, go more for longer strides covering more ground.. easier to animate in a believable way IMO. Thus my mountain lion analogy.

I have also felt that ISK payouts in Pubs as it currently is also needs work. I do see the meta lock at least a way for new players to get stomped less than what there is currently. Certainly skill is taken into account, and at a certain level it becomes less of an issue. I myself almost never run even ADV fits, and pretty much run Quaffe exclusively. I still however get the benefits of all my other core and racial suit skills that new players running similar gear may not have the advantage of. If done correctly there is nothing that says all game modes can't prosper. I personally would rather wait a little longer for a good game than get instantly put in a stomp.

Personally I feel like this causes a lot of frustrating battles where everyone gives up because it's not worth the ISK loss to even try. Last night in battle after battle I was teamed up with some decent players but only myself and a couple mid level blue berries even tried to win. The one battle I won I went 29 /16 which was pretty good given it was me vs two or three reds every damn time. Needless to say I took a loss. It's so frustrating spawning in and seeing people sitting back padding their KDRs. The best battle though was one I had to stop half way through because I was interrupted. I was able to watch the outcome though. So the whole time I played the first half I was cursing the three snipers and everyone else sitting back up high or fighting far off from the objective. Still when I stopped we were winning on MCC by a decent margin. That quickly changed after I stopped. They lost the point and never even tried to get it back except one lone valient guy who died trying to hack. Needless to say they lost with two really skilled players on their team (excluding myself). I won't name names but one was using a SG and went 40/4 (not once near the objective though) and the other sat up far away with a Kalkiota rail rifle and went 22/0 I think. Agreed. In one recent stomp, I just threw on a hacking fit and ran around hacking installations and objectives. I am pretty sure I was the only one. I got a great SP payout, and then my ISK was well short of what I sacrificed just to make the enemy team have to do a little more work during their stomp.

My thinking is that more players would be attracted to FW if it paid better Isk than pubs and supported larger squads. Wouldn't higher participation rates reduce queue times? I don't think it needs to be more ISK per se, but it needs to provide enough LP incentive for losing players to make an effort. As is, if you lose you get the same amount of LP at the No. 1 spot that you do at 16, unless I am mistaken. They should fix LP payouts such that there is more reward for still trying while losing, and to make it beneficial for all to make an effort. Maybe just enough salvage to make the ISK pain a little less, but I don't think that FW should replace Pubs for ISK. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

CRs are great, but not taking them to 5 (which I think is a requirement to get the hipfire down with sharpshooter, something you need to double check) is important because taking sharpshooter to 3 makes a huge, massive difference in how the weapon performs. So take that into account before diversifying your weaponry. With such low SP, especially with scouts, it seems awfully early for diversifying your other suits. That is just a personal preference as I found it best early on to go deeper with the things that mattered most before diversifying, particularly with suits because those were more expensive. But that all depends on what you want to do with things as well, because I still run my Minja 90 to 95% of the time, minus the Minamando for AV or sniping. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Tritus, if you're intent on dying alot and looking to save Isk, your $20 might be better spent on Merc Pack. You stand to save a ton of Isk with the BPOs, but you'd have to skill Gallente instead of Minmatar. SG/SMG and CR/NK are similar playstyles, and you can always cross-train down the road. Agreed.

While Assaults may not be able to out scout Scouts in PC, they sure as hell do in Pubs. Mostly scans are not so significant that Assaults can't dampen up enough to beat them, and if the other team does happen to pull out the Gal Logi with proto scanner (as I have unfortunately seen on occasion), the ISK incentives to win are nowhere significant enough to pull out a max dampened Mk.0. Its not economically viable. So if you are going to get scanned (and you will), you may as well do it in a MinAss that has got some junk in the trunk rather than a 200 HP Minja who only wants to hack some points and help his team win. I get balancing around PC, and I think its important, but I think if we stop there and say that is good enough than what ends up happening is the alienation of a significant portion of the population. Surely there must be a way to make Assaults less scoutly in all situations and not just PC.

Unfortunately we were told that changes were coming, month after month, to the point where the Registry as it has been started simply shut down.

My main fit is a Minja with 400 HP and no cloak. I literally have been forced to dual tank my Minja in order to survive... Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

I get wanting to play your best and all, but to flat out enjoy frustrating new players or players that still play this game in spite of the stomping is what makes people play less. I seem to remember you being upset with how some people in this thread have behaved, but looking at that FA QQ thread, I can't say any of your corp mates behaved any more maturely. If you really care about how others view your corp, I suggest a little humility may go a long way. If you don't really care, then the question itself is moot. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

One Eyed King Nos Nothi 8110	Posted - 2015.03.01 05:11:00 - [1462] - Quote @ Ghost I will start off with the easy portion to reply to. As far as inter PC goes, I am completely understand. That doesn't bother anyone I don't think, even many new players should be smart enough to pick up on competitive trash talk. As far as Infected's post goes, he ends with "This thread just drips tears. They are delicious. Keep it up." Whatever he may have been right about with regards to using Adv gear etc. he completely negated it with the last line. PR is tough, and it doesn't take much to sour people's views about your corp with comments like that. Particularly when directed towards someone obviously new and frustrated. As to what you should do, first accept what you have no control over (matchmaking/team balancing), poor NPE, and no outlet outside PC for high skill players. Then you can find creative ways of addressing what you can control. If playing in large squads causes problems, play in 3 man squads, and after games send an email to new players inviting them to squad with you. Not only will this dilute the skill of the squad, but this will give FA an opportunity to create goodwill by interacting with others (just make sure you don't have anyone on mic that will tend to talk negatively and erase the goodwill you are trying to create). Not only will you create a positive experience for new players, but you could meet some new, interesting people and perhaps gain yourself some quality recruits in the future. If you just got out of a stomp, find a guy or two on the other team that tried hard, and send them an email telling them good job, and sorry that the teams couldn't have been balanced better. If guys in the corp are apathetic, they can be problems. Just look at the NFL. Hundreds of guys lead quiet lives, and contribute significantly to their community, but it only takes one or two bad eggs to ruin the reputation for everyone else. In the same way we keep each other in line here in the Barbershop, someone needs to step up and be accountable for FA, or else accept the consequences of inaction. On the forums, when someone gets ragey about stomps and FA, take a deep breath, and instead of being defensive (which is the natural default setting in such situations), empathize with them and validate their frustration. A lot of times people are just venting, and if people are treated with respect and have their sentiments acknowledged as legit, when they calm down they will have a more positive view of the interaction than if they were attacked or just ignored. Not to mention, having to repeatedly fight for positive changes in the game to make it better. Whether that be PC changes that allow you more of an outlet, or advocating for bringing back Corp battles to fill a gap PC and FW can't. Just look how long it took us to get any scout changes, to get Sprint Glitch fixed, and to get back pedal reduced. It takes FOREVER sometimes, but its either that, or just move on. Just like previous iterations of Dust we can only adapt to the circumstances, whether it be omniscient installations or team balancing that works as intended but still doesn't get the job done. o7 Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Being free to do something and being right in doing something are not equivalent statments.

You can be free to do what you want, but you are not free to determine the effects of your actions, those happen with or without your consent. People can blame CCP all they want, but CCP doesn't make anyone do anything. They may have poor matchmaking, but they don't force people to abuse it. They may have a poor NPE, but they can't force people to sit and do nothing about it themselves. People choose to either be proactive and do as much as possible given their limitations in not being devs themselves, or they can just say F*ck it and play however they want with no regard to consequence, and then hypocritically blame someone else for a failure they themselves actively hastened with indifference. @ Arkena Ghost seemed to have questions, and I gave my perspective for whatever it is worth. Obviously you and Ghost aren't the entirety of FA, but you are free to take it or leave it as you will. @ Shotty I think the mess we are in is an even larger problem than that.

If an advantage can be obtained, people will use it. Honour is not a concept that you can apply to conflict, because there will always be people who don't care about your idea of honour. Should matches be so one sided? No. But expecting a large body of players to self regulate and sort the imbalances out themselves is completely unrealistic. The only way an imbalance will be fixed is by correct developer intervention. Expecting people to behave a certain way is not the same as encouraging them to and using logic to point out the flaws in their thinking/apathy. I don't expect people to not abuse bad mechanics, but I can always do what I can to encourage others to be better than that. Not all changes happen all at once, and there certainly are ways that community support can make change. Getting back to the original point, Ghost was wondering why people thought of FA the way they did. If you can expect people to exploit problems, you can also expect people to have an extreme distaste for those that choose to do so at the expense of others.

I only want to add one thing to what you said: It's only by abusing what is broken that the "ecosystem" (the game) can be fixed by "nature" (ccp). We can take it upon ourselves to never touch the apple on the tree. But someone, someday is going to do it. Let's prove it's broken and get it fixed instead of pretending it doesn't exist, leaving it for an elite few to abuse. I don't condone abuse in ANY WAY, I just want to make that clear. Just remember that there are breaking points, and that something can be abused until the break is beyond repair (ie irreversible climate change or worldwide thermo nuclear war). Your intention may be to demonstrate something is broken and should be fixed, but when the externality is turning away new players in droves and the overall decrease of the population in game as a whole, then intentions become meaningless.

I can't for the life of me understand how HP mods like armor can have such a low fitting cost but if you want to fit KinCats or CBs, you have to pay up the wazoo in CPU and PG, because apparently those mods are super OP and they wouldn't want my little Minja to get to 300 HP by being able to also fit Shields. I really don't understand how people in PC are killing with Minjas, but I don't think it can be with NKs unless they are hacking. And don't get me starting on that stupid clunky cloak delay glitch. Tired of running at people who saw me without having my knives, just because I tried to pull out my knives while evading in the wrong order. Because a 200 HP Minja is so OP with knives and so hard to kill that we should just be relegated to running without weaponry... Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Also, if you're not doing it already, running in a smaller squad tends to be more fun; some of the best times I've had were in a 3-man squad with Jolly and Noob. If you prefer running in larger squads, try turning your coms off entirely. I personally find that this improves my performance. For some reason, it also keeps me in a good mood longer. I don't find that disabling coms is necessary when running with most of the NN guys; Scouts tend to keep coms tactical ... and I love it. I ran with them last night, and it was mostly fun because of the squading, but I had similar frustrations when I even tried to be tactical, so mostly I just went suicidal.

Concerning Myofibs: I have my 500 punch scout ready to go, it's going to be a barrel of laughs ! But at the end of the day, for Nova Knifing, I don't think I will fit any myofibs (though I am hoping to be proven wrong). Why? When I leap-kill with Nova Knives, I want to just skim the ground. I want to be airborne ONLY long enough for my knives to charge. Any more is a waste. A weakness. A time where I cannot change my momentum. Jumping with knives is a commitment and a call out. The call out and commitment goes up with my jump height. I only want to be in the air 0.6 seconds, not more, when using Nova Knives. I am secretly hoping that the tactical position gaining advantages of Myofibs outweighs this detail, though. The other day, I was behind a small container on a walkway, with an enemy red heavy immediately behind. What I would have given to be able to jump the container and get in behind the heavy. It would have been sweet. @ BMFs (or any BFs) I also wouldn't mind if they removed them, but if they are going to keep them, they need to reduce the price even further. I would think seriously about using a BF if the rates were 1k, 3k, 7k for Std, Adv, and Proto. Perhaps they could be even less. I think trying to change some aspect of them to compete with other frames does sound risky, but if a new player could use them as a super cheap way to do more as opposed to needing to have proto in everything, it might be just enough encouragement.

I accept I should not be hidden from everything with no risk. my only problem with active scanners. flux having the widest angle and 200m (should not be more than 150m). I think the longer the scan range the more narrow the angle should be. proximity should have the widest angle with its 60m range. focused should be 50m with narrow angle The db does not bother me as a scout it is the range at which they can scan that bothers me.

From a Minmatar point of view, I will be slightly less unviable. The key here is that with 1 damp and 1 kin cat in your lows, you would get the whole cake of "sufficient damps" and have more speed than we currently do (which is plenty) for Nova Knifing. Survivability doesn't necessarily change, but you no longer need to choose between code breakers, plates, damps and speed. You just damp+speed and call it done, maybe use the third slot for breakers or plates if you have a proto suit. Discussing this has actually opened my eyes a bit. It's not that the minscout isn't competitive (it needs to sacrifice speed to be competitive in PC), it's that the GalScout doesn't need to make that hard choice at all. Caldari have to give up shield regulators to damp and speed, and only have 2 lows, this is a big deal, they can never have all 3 even at proto. Amarr can get speed and damps but they're not on the same level. They also have to give up their shields if they want to boost damage with damage mods (akin to NK bonus of min scout). They also have tough choices to make. Your Gal Scout observation is spot on, and that has always been the case (particularly because of the module variety and utility for Low Slot Modules). Given the proposal however, I still have to make lots of sacrifices, its just I get a little more wiggle room in terms of circumstances. The biggest change is not having to have the Pro Cloak active when Min/Maxing. We still have to have Proto level suits to dodge Max Scans however, and still have to fill our Low Slots with Complex Damps in order to do so. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Shotgun efficacy could get interesting ...then again, GalScout shotgunners already dominate Scout PC usage. Giving them a bonus to shotguns might reinforce the meta we're trying to shakeup ... But much of the SG domination has much to do with the Dampening bonus too. If Gal Scouts have no dampening to set them apart, and are a bit less versatile, then perhaps giving them a Shotgun bonus will help them compete a little more with Assault Shotguns while not really stealing away anything from the other Scouts.

If we opt for A, we'll have issues with MinScout balance due to high-speed hacks; the hacks will likely have to go.

A scanned Scout is a dead Scout, and there will always be low-dB baseline scans. The Scout which beats the baseline at the lowest level of investment is the optimal choice. So it's the binary nature - the next question is, is an unscanned scout OP? Because as Ghost has said, if you bring out the next level of scanner to scan down the next level of dampener, and wash rinse repeat until someone wins, that suggests to me that not detecting scouts is a sure way to lose a battle. Now is that coz of Alpha damage, or hack speeds, or what? [edit] If gal scout beats everything with the right fit, why don't all squads consist of gal scouts? If pre-echo HMG was OP, why didn't all squads run HMG? Spitballing edit Unscanned, aka Max Dampened Scouts, make significant HP and utilitarian sacrifices to become unscanned, so I don't think they are OP, particularly in the current meta. What sets Gal Scouts apart is their ability to reach that state with less of a sacrifice, and more room for HP and other utilitarian mods at the same time. Currently, if I have to Max Dampen my Minja, I need to fill all Lows with CDs, which leaves no room for CBs, KinCats, or HP. Plus because CA, MN, and AM need to have a Pro Cloak active to beat the Max Scans, they are in that state blind outside 5 m and have to deal with the fitting cost and clunkiness of the Cloak as well. The Gal Scout, if it chooses, can beat scans sans Cloak, and have an extra EQ slot and fitting space as well. It just has a lot more room for variation when dampened than the other 3. Lastly, in compared to my Minja, which I run standard, a Std Gal Scout has the slots to beat Max Scans, while I would have to pull out a Proto suit to do the same with Minmatar. In the current state, it is the probably the most viable/versatile of a possibly UP class. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

I actually was trying the ScR on my new Gal scout yesterday (even at level 2 Gal racial, I can get bellow 20 with just 2 of my 3 LS and have space to spare for HP and other things...), and couldn't do squat with it.

Slap on timers then, but now its getting ridiculous. Just step up and deal with the team. My issue is not with having to fight these ringer teams. My issue is with the concept. Don't you think it's ridiculous that corps are able to use ringers to boost the number of districts they can field simultaneously? I believe the number of members a corp has should reflect how many districts it can own within the same timer. If a corp can only field two full teams simultaneously at it's prime, it should only be able to own two districts within that timer. It shouldn't be able to use ringers to field six districts simultaneously, when logistically, it could only field two with it's own members. Why not? Its the whole point of logistics. If they are able to use ringers and hold more districts than their normal player count, all the power to them. However, over dependence on ringers is actually a huge weakness, if you know how to exploit it. If you know who the ringers are, you hit another district on the same timer and hire a team of players to show up there. The ringers will go to fight their own battle, and all the other team has to do is keep them there. Then you force the other team to show up with their own, or hire different ringers. PC is war. Argue about honor and integrity all you want, but the bottom line is you are going to have to deal with it, no matter how scrummy it is. CCP won't intervene. Welcome to the sandbox. I'm not saying I don't agree with you. However, I don't try to convince other teams to change tactics so that I can have an easier time. I find a way to punish them for using the same team and strat over and over again. TL;DR Its a sandbox. Unless they are breaking the rules CCP will let you do whatever you want. You're going to have to deal with it. Here is the thing. CCP makes the rules.

If you use an alt corp with the only player inside it being a fresh alt, then the mu score is negligible. If you mean to count ringers, how would that be accomplished, exactly? How many groups are there that can field a team for each of those 5 districts simultaneously? There really aren't many groups that can manage more than one team at once. That is the point exactly, ringers allow corps to hold way more land then they really should. Being able to hold multiple districts is a direct reflection of exploitation of the system through ringing or locking. A corp right now has ~40 districts and ~150 members. They couldn't field even 5 attacks at once, but I don't see anyone stepping up to take them. The cost is just too damn high [Insert meme here] and yet a corp with 1000+ members only has a single district. RE: Mu Those corps could hold a distinct but wouldn't be able to field mercs over a specific Mu score to defend/attack. I'm saying that if you attempted to deploy into a battle with a "ringer" it simply wouldn't let you. You could probably get one or two ringers as I would expect a "range" but you couldn't fill it up with top-tier mercs. EX: Disclaimer, this is a very rough guideline. Its simply an idea, I am not a game designer nor implementation expert. corp mu score = 100 Range of Mu you can attack/defend = 50-150 Roster is filled with 12 Mercs from corp Mu score = 125 Roster filled with 1 ringer = 150 Roster filled wtih 2 ringers = 175 With two ringers you wouldn't be able to deploy. The idea is to create a permanent PC metric to a player, rather than the corp. Corps allow for easy exploitation. I like this idea. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Something that's more behind the scenes similar to the Mu score in pubs. I don't know the exact implementation but in a PC environment where you are "forced" to hire mercs to maintain your land...... Something like, within a 30 Day rolling period, you get 0 Corp Goodwill points subtracted from the score for fighting with your Corp in PC, with 1 added for fighting for Corp X, and increasing the points added for each additional corp (or not). And the higher your Goodwill score, the higher your Ringer cost (maybe even a small increase to in your cost to your Corp). All numbers and mechanics pulled out of rear for brainstorming purposes.

It is a very different form of play because of wide open maps. There is no redline for you to have your back to. The only time I have really been successful is with snipers and heavily distracted mercs. Sniping is MUCH more fun though. That, and spotting players. I spent the better part of a huge fire fight sitting on the side of a far hill overlooking the fight, spotting enemies. I also got a couple sweet shots in, and it was good experience dialing in longer range shots. Especially since I was using what would be the "Specialist" equivalent in Dust, as opposed to tactical.

And they should also have some minimum you get if you spawn in at the end of a match. Just to soften the blow. I actually disagree. If you get screwed over waiting 2+ minutes and the loadscreen to get in to a half done battle (usually on the worse side) and then perform as well as everyone else for that time your in why not reward you as if you fought the whole match? It would be a great reward for getting screwed over on not getting a full game and make players try there hardest when put into battles mid way through since they would get better pay out for each min spent. If this was done it would change everyone's attitude towards being deployed to games already underway and no one would leave when deployed to them making a better experience for everyone. I should clarify. I meant a ISK minimum for being deployed at the end of a game, not a WP minimum. So if you wait those 2 minutes, spawn, and then the game ends, you at least get some ISK for your trouble. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

I have a faint recollection of it being talked about back when we could bunny hop endlessly, still it would be a good change to the jump mechanic since it would prevent instant moon jumps as a response to being shotgunned in the back. I don't think this would fix any of the issues with myo's, it would just mean more high spot camping because in order for someone to jump up to you they'd have to stop and charge - in which time you fill them full of bullets. @ Haerr These are both ideas previously shared by others, but I think that the combination of the two would help minimize abuses without hurting players not even using Myos by nerfing regular jumps for everyone. @Mina Nothing says you have to stand still while charging a jump anymore than they stand still while charging knives, PLCs, RRs etc. I don't think it would make countering high elevation camping any more difficult, but I DO think it would reduce some of the other abuses we have seen, not to mention some of the annoyances of wanting to make just a small jump, but having to make huge ones.

Anyone who has any attachment to something to any degree is, whether we know it or not. Bias even gets more complex than that, but that is a topic for another discussion. I have no problems with people engaging us honestly when it comes to that. I do the same with AV/Tank threads as you know. We need to keep each other honest, but the discussion is more than that. As both you and Pokey have pointed out, that I may be right in saying that there is a problem, but have misidentified it. It is a fair point, because both of you know vehicles with a depth and experience I do not have, but honest discussion leads to understanding as well as keeping each other honest. And you are right in saying this is a semi closed off community. As are corps, Mordu Trial vets, and any group dedicated to any role, to one degree or another. It simply a matter of sharing a passion for something, as well as a culture that we have created and cultivated, and I personally do not see that as a negative, but a positive. You make very valid points, but I do not see why those two points above can't exist in a framework of tolerance. It is one thing to say we are biased, it is another to claim, as many have, that we want scouts to be assaults, without ever providing evidence, and ignoring the times when we claim the opposite. The sentiment I have seen from many others, particularly many that bombarded the thread yesterday, goes beyond simply disagreeing and wanting to keep us honest. It is often malicious (such as being called cancerous), and seems to have an anger and hatred that I don't think the points you brought up automatically merit. THAT is what I don't believe has any justification. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

Usually, when we have talked of active scanner problems, we have often been referring to the Gal Logi/Focused scanners you mentioned. It would probably help if we were always more clear about that. I think your point about there not being a problem with a logi passive scanner would be alright if it didn't overlap so much with the Amarr bonuses, and I do think that a change for them to have biotics makes the most sense. The range amp nerf just hit them too hard. I also wish there was a way to either make inner circles a hard number, or to make range amps only affect the medium and outer circles, but I don't recall if that is feasible or not. With regards to Assaults, I think we have two problems. One is the EWAR, the other is the mobility/HP in combination. At this point I am indifferent towards which CCP should hopefully decide to adjust, so long as they aren't both adjusted concurrently. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Nanohives, of course, have a majority. Proto EQ seldom makes the cut; I'm willing to bet we'd see more Active Scanner usage in that chart if STD and ADV Scanners were worth running. This is anecdotal since I only played 2.75 games today, but its been awhile since I noticed lots of active scans. Today, I didn't notice any, at least not team shared. And at least one game had only 1 squad on my side with more than 1 person (a two man squad). As an aside, the games themselves were weird. The first was a stomp at Ashlands that I came into partway in. They already had 4 objectives, but the blues did an admirable job pushing with what they had. I finally realized I needed to get on the pipes, and I took out 5 ULs, but it was too late to really be effective. One thing I like about the new MM is that even when games are not competitive (people leaving?), you have a bunch of blues still making an effort as opposed to the pre MM where it was like 4 or 5 people still trying. Second and third games were also relatively one sided, but it felt like there were a lot of bad/new players. Did I get downgraded? vOv In one game, I got 3 separate RE kills from people not fluxing the objectives. I knifed a shotgunner in the face (how bad do you have to be to let THAT happen?), and had another instance where someone had me pinned near one of the columns on upper objective in the Gal Research city. Instead of making a wide bearth around the column in case I had a SG/NKs, he came right around and basically let me knife him. I am not used to bad play lately given the new MM lately. The next game, I also got some kills I wouldn't normally, and ran into the oddest CQC vs Sentinel ever. He stacked Myos. And was jumping like crazy, like over my head crazy. It was to say the least, ineffective. It took forever for me to finally track down his position because we were basically on top of each other, and I don't know what made him think the jumping was the best evasive maneuver. Eventually I did get him though. I also had the pleasure of knifing a heavy/logi combo in one of those new electrical buildings, then had the heavy spawn back in, and got him again. Lots of blue support was in that game, so it was fun. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

Yes that will help, but what about scout performance overall? Scouts are pretty much blind now, at least for me. I notice the difference more than most because of the huge gap between updates that I have. Its an adjustment more than anything. We were super OP before, and while I would have preferred a different set of nerfs that still allowed us to be us without over performing, I simply have grudgingly accepted where we are now for the sake of balance, and believe that if CCP sees our K/S is too low, then something will be done to fix it.

Charging is rough with the inner circle now, as sometimes they can see you before you even charge. If you are chasing someone, a Myo and a Raptor jump are excellent, particularly with faster Medium frames. One thing I would suggest, and I find helps me when I do it, is to not aim for them straight on, but aim to the side of them, or, if they have spotted you, to go ahead and Raptor OVER them, doing a 180 in the air, and knifing them as they back into you. Even if it is kind of off, it throws them off as you are not where they thought you were, and it is now it is a matter of who can pick up whom in their FOV first. And often you don't even need to see them to knife them as your knifing range is greater than your FOV. This also goes for run by knifings. I have more success if I imagine their is a person to the side, or behind of your target, depending on how you approach, and aim for that imaginary target with your body, and then as you swing your knives pivot towards your actual target. Its great for keeping your movement fluid, plus if your enemy makes any sudden movements, which often happens, it leaves you with a better margin of error than if you were running directly at them.

Possibly make it fewer slots on average than a Scout, but the bonuses maybe let you make up the difference.... Not sure on that idea. Rough idea: Restricted to 2x Sidearms Bonuses to Biotics/Hacking/Scanning Modules, Cloak (assuming no additional cloak skills added), possibly racial weapon usage for where it makes sense? I would love to see a skill that makes Primary Objectives flip sooner for these suits, if possible. I think these could be good bonuses to cloaking abilities per racial suit. Or, I could maybe see Cloak Fitting bonus stay on them, and make the following skills added to the Cloak tree: 3%-5% per level to Cloak Duration 3%-5% per level to Cloak Recharge 5% per level reduction to Cloak Shimmer The 5% I think would work ok on Basic and Advanced level Cloaks, but I think might be overpowered on Proto Cloaks, so I'm thinking more 3% or 4% on Duration/Recharge. And then either: 1% per level to Suit Dampening or 10% per level reduction to Cloak Blindness I dunno, the idea is still half baked in my head. Thought that maybe I can toss this out here, see what you guys thought and maybe we can get this shaped up and pitched to Rattati. Maybe if role delineation were more of a thing in Dust, but with so much overlap already (Scout Heavies aka Dampened Assaults with Biotics). The roles would be so close that one would probably cannibalize the use of the other, such that it would completely negate either existing Scouts, or the Recon suits themselves.

I don't dislike the game on principle or anything, I actually was decently into the story and the characters and I loved the music, but after a while I found that the gameplay just gets in the way of that. That's the problem I have with turnbased JRPGs, I just find the format so thoroughly unengaging, and when you're just forcing yourself through the gameplay to get on with the story then you just end up with a more tedious and frustrating movie or visual novel. I have nothing against the genre, and I've tried numerous games from it, it's just something I don't like. I feel the same way about puzzle games. I'll look into Legend of Dragoon though Tangentially related, but Pokemon completely escapes this JRPG Curse of mine. I adore Pokemon games and devour them every time I get my hands on them. I've talked to my friend about it and he agrees that Pokemon is somehow different from the traditional JRPG but neither of us can figure out exactly why. Any ideas So for you FF VII is meh, but Pokemon is what's good? I bet you think the newest TMNT movie was better than the original. Soulless bastard. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

I think I'll swing by the thread and ask Similarities Same pay structure Same salvage structure Same opportunity to flip district Possible Differences Different Timers Different CP Costs Different Team Sizes Different Modes (?) I don't see Raiding as having similar opportunities of pay and salvage, simply because then it would really be too similar to regular PC. When you are a Pirate, you loot and GTFO. You don't plan on stealing away their customers like a hostile corporate takeover or something. I think the rewards will be less, as there should rightfully be a lower CP cost vs PC, or else newer/smaller corps would still have a high barrier to entry. If the rewards are too great, then it would make more sense for corps to raid instead of hold districts. I see Raiding as burglary, you get in, you do some damage, you take some of the profits (clones, ISK, DK etc) for yourself, while not having any real desire to hold the district. IMO, if you really want to "flip" or "Ransom" districts, that would be more of a regular PC. I think if the timers are too closely related to PC, then it really kind of defeats the purpose. There are SUPPOSED to be lots of smaller corps making a nuisance of themselves attacking the establishment. If Corps want to hold land, they need to not over exert themselves, or lean on their Alliance. The CP costs, while low enough to allow entry for a reasonably small sized corp, should be significant enough that they can't simply attack relentlessly. If CP is tied to missions, at best you can get 10 chances of CP a day, which will also limit the ability of smaller, newer, or more casual corps from having a significant enough CP daily/weekly CP flow to just go Raiding bananas. Those are my understandings of what it could/should/is supposed to be. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

Second, you are asking for low hp suits to be nerfed for no real reason other than fluxes are very effective. Its contrary to the idea that lower hp suits should be better with high alpha weapons as an offset. It is no more or less rational than saying SR, CR, or ScR damage should be lower.

I'm not sure where you've come up with the idea that lower HP suits should have better alpha, but I don't really think thats true - Logi's have lower HP than assaults, should they do more damage? Commando's often have more raw HP than assaults yet do comparable damage (this is kind of a bad comparison, as assaults really can managed to get absolutely everything - damage, hp, regen, etc except in a few niche cases). Burst HMG's are the most powerful anti-infantry weapon useable by infantry, and they're packed around by sentinels. It's got little to do with shields and more to do with differentiating suit roles. For example an assault should want a powerful 'assaulting' grenade able to damage enemies, where a logi should be content with a grenade that's more oriented towards support. Low HP suits, particularly non support classes like scouts, which are meant to be assassins, are meant to be best with high alpha weapons because of their innate weakness. They get in, kill, and get out. If they miss, or take on multiple opponents, it becomes a disadvantage. Logis are primarily a support role, with little in the way of killing power (hence having limited numbers of weapons, and more EQ). Heavies deal in high DPS weapons for extended engagement with their higher HP. That is the set up. I only rarely get killed by grenades, and I often run sub 300 hp. They are supposed to be deadly, and if they were overshadowing gun play, as opposed to complimenting it, I think you would see WAAAY more grenade kills.

Its one thing for them to be fun and somewhat viable. Its another thing entirely if it results in roles being cannibalized.

Daily Mission: Lose 5 matches Reward 10 keys We already have missions for completing matches. Might help if they were higher in the rotation, and if the bug where you get credit for matches that you back out of were addressed. Actually that bug needs addressed for all missions, might make some gains on people completing matches in that context. I was thinking something more along the lines of a deterrent. I think that perhaps incentives work just as well, if not better. If, perhaps, there was a completed match multiplier to rewards, then people would stay more often. It could increase based upon consecutive matches played, or even better, work as a ratio, with rewards staying consistently higher the more matches you stay. The ratio gives a little flexibility regarding leaving truly awful matches, as it wouldn't simply wouldn't restart you the way not logging in a day resets the rewards, and it gives you some sort of idea whether a particular match or day is worth the extra rewards or not. I HATE leaving matches, but I understand why. I played a couple the other day, and in the second match, I get put in the middle of a stomp halfway through. Sgt Kirk, and someone else recognizable was up at the top of the leaderboard, but we were on Line Harvest, and all 4 objectives were red. There was nothing anyone could do to make headway. Not only did they have the objectives, but they seemed to be entrenched. They had tanks and ADS out, and there wasn't anything anyone could do to make any headway. I almost had a hack off, literally got killed as the circle finished, but the hack apparently didn't count. Tried killing people near what used to be A, but was killed by a second attacker before I could get the first. Then I simply decided to try and attack the HAV and ADS that were near our redline harassing us. In the end, I ended up with maybe 75 WP for some vehicle damage and 4 deaths. Won a grand total of 21k ISK, which was not enough to cover even my cheapest suit. They HAVE to find a way to make trying and staying worth it. Fck giving rewards to stompers. Fck rewarding just the winners. Give people incentive to fight and lose instead of perpetuating rewards for people who were going to win anyways, and MAYBE people will stick around, and matches can be more fair.

It has its positives, such as a great game for snipers, but where Dust frustrates with things that are ultimately fixable in one form or fashion, PS2 bores by design. I can look at Dust and feel like its potential isn't far off, and that if/when it moves to a different system after we essentially work out the balances and concepts here, it can be really great. PS2 feels bogged down by its nature. Its hard to feel connection to a faction when you have 3 factions and 3 characters and can switch between them at will depending on which faction dominates at the time. Its worse than FW where at least there is LP gear unique enough and some minor penalty for opposing factions. Not to mention that if you think asymmetrical matches are bad in Dust just wait until the never ending 30 vs 5 battles. PS2 is good for casual fun to kill time, but it lacks substance.

My feelings exactly. I'd buy a PS4 (or PC) if Dust were migrated to it as is, but I'd love to see it reach its fullest potential first. I'm plenty content to continue playing Dust on the PS3. Also, wouldn't rule out the possibility of Sony making PSN content and titles designed for the PS3 playable on the PS4 (via emulator?). Why would they let that much content go to waste when they could otherwise monetize it? But essentially they already are. PS Now is a subscription streaming service and I think it allows them to retain the use of games more than perhaps downloading does. At the very least any other options on the PS4 regarding older games will likely compete with that service. That is why I keep my PS3. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

The Shotgun has such high amounts of alpha damage that having so many bullets in the chamber is a little OP. I use the shotty on a regular basis, and it really is easy mode. There's a chance that shotgun efficiency and utilization rates will pick up following the strafe speed changes. Should that occur, I think it safe to assume that shotgun nerfs will be on the table. Reducing clip size isn't a bad idea. Also, widening the performance gap between STD, ADV and PRO might be a good idea as well. Widening the dispersion pattern might be a good approach as well. If/when the time comes to tune shotgun mechanics, I'm hoping we can tune the Breach Shotgun as well. Spitballing, of course. @VAHZZ While I hate shotgunners as much as, or more than, sentinels, I don't think this is the right time to make that adjustment (although with upcoming changes, I can see the possible need, but want to see how the changes play out first). I hate dying easily to milita and std SGs, but I also recognize that there are a LOT of Assaults out there, HP tanking it up, not to mention Heavies. With some of the many nerfs we have seen, its hard enough to be a scout and try and keep up. A change like this will only further increase the number of Assault SGs and reduce the number of Scout SGs. Again, upcoming changes could even the playing field enough to take another look. To Shotty's point, perhaps the Breach could retain the 8 pellets in the shot (if that is what VAHZZ meant by having 8 in the chamber, which was my understanding) and have a greater dispersion. If you get in real tight it would do the damage of a breach, but getting in that tight is often tricky, and if you miss, its deadly. Sounds exactly right for a Breach weapon.

As far as brick tanking scouts, it seems to me easier to Dampen Assaults and give them KCs. Bricked tanked scouts have not been FotM for awhile. If I remember what Shotty was referring to, they fixed it by toning down AA a lot. It used to be much stronger. Something else to consider is that HP has been buffed a lot since then and DPS not so much. I am thinking this will be a huge scout nerf until the HP/ speed curve is put in. Stafing kept scouts in the game, even though it was broken. I hope they don't wait long between the strafe nerf and the curve.

In that respect, what is the difference between Raiding and Attacking? In my mind, Raiding is more nimble, more flexible, less costly, but ultimately less rewarding than Attacking. I would think the best reward of an Attack to be winning the district, which is why I get confused about how it can be ransomed. This just occurred to me, but do you think that retaining control of a district would cut off rewards for the original owner yet yeild no additional rewards for the Raiders? So many unknowns...

However, this is not a minor caveat. Just of the ones you listed, Shared Passives are a huge obstacle. They are a significant reason that EWAR is as it currently is, with the circles and whatnot. I can't remember specifics, but I seem to recall reasoning along the lines of their removal being such a big hassle that they either didn't have the resources, or were too much of a sink of their resources for CCP to get rid of them. I thought OBs were already removed from FW as far as calling them Dust side, or did they put that back in after OBs being an EVE side operation in FW? I also think it needs safeguards in place so that team deploy would not be exploitable in terms of farming. While I do not see farming as an inevitable result of team deploy FW, I do think the concern real enough that it should be addressed and prevented before it can happen. Lastly, it needs to be open to a fairly broad swath of the community, and not just be an extension of PCs Old Boy Club. I used to LOVE play FW before the LP store and all that jazz came into play.

Like Rattati said, we are a fundamentally weakly designed suit. I feel like if there is a problem with the suit, it can be minimized by making dampening a scout thing, and by fixing the cloak. Reduce Cloak fitting cost (Without low profile it does not offer as much benefit so why not?) Change Scout bonus to Profile Damp so that all scouts can be stealthy. This will benefit Min and Amarr scouts the most, who seem to be the lowest performing. Where would this put the Cal and Gal scouts for their bonuses? What would be reasonable for Damps number wise for these suits so that the bonuses do not become useless? If the Precision Amps go up, how will the Amarr scout look? Functional scans would be great, and balanced by limited by range. With less Damps required Amarr scout would be able to fit Range Enhancers, or more tankGÇª more options. Would this push the Amarr scout into Best Scout territory? We came up with an idea awhile ago that addressed scout balance given the change of dampening to the role instead of just one race. I think it was well thought out, and there was compromise and a fair agreement I think considering those in the conversation were initially coming at it from different places. Cal and Gal could get cloak bonuses, like duration, extra dampening, or a reduction to the cloak range penalty (4% per level would reduce their scan range to just 65% rather than the 85% reduction) to compensate for the loss of the dampening bonus. If that isn't good, we can always come up with other options. I don't think that Range Enhancers, given their state, would be a problem on the Amarr, and with speed and strafe as it is, I don't think the HP tanking would be terribly effective. Frankly, I still think they should just get a biotic bonus instead of the precision bonus, unless we can make inner rings a fixed range instead of a relative range. I think this speaks to the nature of the problem, that the Minmatar Scouts' weaknesses are as much to do with the environment that they are in, having seen so many changes elsewhere that have really highlighted the weakness, as it is to do with the suits design. As a result, simply trying to address the scout by itself does little to fix some of the other fundamental issues, and will be incredibly difficult to do without adding more problems, or creating a fix that ends up being ineffectual .

One Eyed King Nos Nothi 10	Posted - 2015.07.04 06:06:00 - [1958] - Quote So I played Dust and PS2 both for the first time in awhile. Mostly because for some reason EAs servers were down (possibly related to the PSN issues, which I didn't notice anywhere else for some reason), and thus I couldn't play Garden Warfare. PS2 did not change much from the beta, minus seeing way more players, and having more servers. You definitely can't just cloak, shoot from cloak, and recloak indefinitely, unless there is a nicer cloak which I did not feel like grinding for or paying for that will allow this. Nor does crouching prevent cloak running down. It was hard to go back to the base gun after being able to use any sniper rifle I wanted in beta, but no way is it worth the grind. So after I finally got bored of that, what with all the being constantly outnumbered, by not one, but two enemies, I decided Dust would be more fun. It by and large was. I definitely feel like knifing got easier. Unless I got placed with a lot of bad players, I was able to be more effective in CQC I think in large part because of the strafing change. In fact, there was at least one game where I had a 2.0 KDR, which I hadn't really seen since the massive scout nerfs late last fall. Even one of my bad games was a 0.71, so they don't seem to be in too bad a place right now. I did notice the stamina changes, but only because I was really looking for them. What I noticed however, wasn't terribly significant. I think I may have ran out of juice a little early once or twice, but otherwise it wasn't too bad. When the tiercide gets put in, I can easily just throw on a KC or Cardiac Reg and either will help with the changes. The last match was far and away the most frustrating, as my team didn't seem to be trying at all, which left me vulnerable, but I still got more kills than I normally would in that situation. Then I got the infinite Defeat screen, and felt that was an omen. And then I watched Interstellar and had my mind blown. I would watch paint dry if the Nolan brothers wrote a script for it.

How do Serpent scouts make it so that there is 'no point trying in some games'? Because of people exploiting a glitch and not needing to have any risk whatsoever without having paid for the privilege one way or another. Not counting the people that came by it honestly. And when you are the only one on your team making an effort its quite annoying that some jackass on the other team is able to get easy kills with no risk of losing anything, and getting paid a premium to do so.

I mean, what exactly does one have to do to achieve it? I am seriously asking. Okay okay okay. A "Bastard" is the epitome of a scout. Scouts are supposed to be fast, hard to detect, and squishy. With high enough skill (and game knowledge), you can abuse you strengths to FAR outpace your weaknesses. A Bastard is that scout who always manages to sneak in and shotgun your logi. A Bastard is that scout who always knives you in the back while you try to hack a point. A Bastard is that scout who ALWAYS MANAGES TO FREAKING GET AWAY. A Bastard is that scout who makes you paranoid, and always checking you back every few steps. And so you get mad. You chase him. So do your friends. You all devote yourselves to trying to eradicate this stupid, annoying sht with almost no health who seems to be running circles around you and devoting his life to making your game miserable. This is a bastard. A sadistic little guy in a suit who gets off on messing with your mind, making you paranoid, and making the game as unfun as possible for you. You wanted to play Dust today? WELL TOO BAD. WELCOME TO RESPAWN SIMULATOR 2015 Anytime you encounter a scout who just makes you think "What a dck" you've met a Bastard. How can you achieve this status? Start acting like one. Start picking on logis and heavies. I put a personal death sentence on every Forger and Gal Logi I see in the game. Stand close to points that you know are about to be hit and WAIT. Then kill the guy who goes to hack. Run off. Wait. Kill another guy. Pick them off one by one, gleefully as they try to hack a point. If they all start chasing you, send them on a merry chase and RE them around corners. If the whole team starts to show up, RE the point and run away. Then set up at the next point. Someone trying to hide and forge/snipe in the redline. Show them nowhere is safe. Knife them in the back even if it means dying to redline timer (I have a cheap suit for killing Proto forges like this). MAKE PEOPLE TILT. They make more mistakes and are even easier to take advantage of now. I sound like an a**hole don't I? That's the point. I may be nice on the forums, but I aim to be ruthless in game. This is a TEAM based game. Anything you can do that destroys that teamwork is beneficial. And a good scout can mess up so many things at once, its not even funny. At least that's my take on this. OG Bastards were very much like this. With great eWAR and familiarity with their kit, people like Marauder and Lightning got godly at stomping teams into the ground with discord and chaos.

I am on infrequently and when I am I see few corp members. Do we have enough during our peak times? We'd have to rally the inactives. The question in my mind is, should we reach out to those inactives now or should we wait until we can actually show them a proper Raid? I (for one) would be uncomfortable calling up an old friend to "Raid" with us, knowing that our "Raid" will be nothing more or less than a PC Attack. And a pointless one at that, as we've no intent or desire to keep what we take. But say, on the other hand, we reached out to that old friend and told him to hop onto Dust anytime and hit up NN to get in on an actual Raid. In my mind, "hop on whenever and check out what we're up to" is a much more comfortable pitch than "if it fits your schedule, please mark your calendar for 'nintendo time with friends' from 04:00 to 05:30 tomorrow.". Furthermore ... Say that friend hopped onto Dust (at his leisure) to find that his old buddies had become proper pirates engaged in noblest of bastards' cause. Terrorize the "L33T"! Pillage their peaceful farmlands! Burn their Blue Donuts! ... that guy, I suspect, would be more likely to stick around and play more Dust than the guy who we rang up to run a regular, laggy ol' PC with us. I like that plan. That begs the question of who we call in to raid with us when our numbers are low. I think if we wait until true raiding comes in, or until we just manage to have enough people online then we will just sit and twiddle our thumbs forever. Of course, that conversation is probably best suited in the basement. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

I.e. 8v8, 10v10 etc. Winning a raid nets you some smaller percentage of that district's resources, and while the original corp side still technically retains ownership, so long as the raiding corp has possession, the district stops producing resources. Raiding corps can ransom the district back or district owners can re raid and win it back. This not only prevents farming, but gives the corp owning the district incentive to win and retain control.

I don't think that the 1.2 bump could be so pronounced that it would affect the data this way, but even if you look at the yearly data, you will notice that the most recent period is much higher than the points just prior to it. Perhaps it is just a small, temporary increase in an otherwise declining set of numbers, but I still find it interesting that it has happened at all. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

There are many ways of "winning" or being "successful." It seems like the two PCs we have played were played under typical goals. If we are capping out CP, what is to stop us from having a few people attacking a separate district owned by the same corp, with different goals? Say several people just want to play in cheap gear and make isk. Maybe they show up late, or just want to have fun. They can just jump in to a fight and either wing it, or decide on more casual strategy, focused on harassment rather than winning the objectives game. Group two, can attack the district as they have been. PC defender doesn't know what they are getting. Perhaps they split talent. In this case, we have strategically given our second group an advantage. Maybe they end up shifting resources, but by then a lead has developed, and our first group got to take out some pricey suits to pad their wallets. Maybe that first group even invites some randoms in squad finder just for fun, maybe meet some new people, and to make sure the enemy can't simply field a small number, and maybe they end up winning.

We can be pirates and still be organized. I see no problem doing fun fights along with serious fights, so long as we're up front about what we're doing and everyone's on the same page in advance. We've got lots of guys in different timezones to consider; Otrera out in Oceania, for instance, either stays up super late or gets up super early to fight with us; he should know in advance if we're going to be giving it our all or lol'ing around for kicks. Again, we've only fought two fights; we've by no means established precedent for future fights. If you guys would like to, we can take a playful approach (i.e. all scouts, PLC only, BPO only, etc) to our next fight. We just need to be careful about managing expectations up front. Send out a corp mail, for example, explaining what we're up to. If we need ringers again, we should be upfront with them about what we have in mind. Is my thinking unreasonable here? No. That was the gist of my comment previous to the one that is quoted, that people seem to be having separate goals and expectations. I just think we aren't thinking large and bastardly enough, even at the beginning. I mean, if we are capping out CP, we are just throwing away opportunities to experiment. I would hate to set an early precedence of sameness. It is never too early to just throw stuff out and see what sticks in terms of our PC play, especially if we are wasting opportunities by maxing our CP stores. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

If Dust was your main reason for purchase, you don't need to have PS Plus. IMO, it is still worth it for the free games and discounts, but it is not as good a deal as when it first came out before the PS4 release. While I think that the PS4 is worth it personally (can't imagine playing DA : I on PS3, among other games), I still think that Dust should be ported to the PC first, then to the PS4 within a reasonable time frame. Firstly, it would attract a new audience, as well as a new revenue stream, which could then be used for the PS4 port. Now I have to do some time zone math to figure out when the PCs are...

I know this is a really unpopular opinion and that it would upset most of the playerbase, but for the long term it's for the best.

As much as I hate playing FPS games with mouse and keyboard, PC is the way to go. Why JUST the PC? Plenty of games, in fact I would wager most non casual games are multi platform.

At that point you are just leaving money on the table. But isn't the problem that ports are crap? And don't you have to port from a console to a PC? Either way, a port that is cheap to do means it's just wrapped in **** to make it work, and won't make use of the hardware properly. Sub-optimal experience. Not all ports are crap. I am not a fan of PS2, but I don't think its because it is a crap port. Likewise, I don't think that there is a significant difference in many games that are cross platform. Many of the newer games that have been ported from either the PS3 to PS4 (like Journey most recently), or from the PC to console (Minecraft and PS2), have not received poor marks for the port. I think that the notion ports are automatically crap is probably a generalization that is less true today than it has been in the past. When I meant relatively cheap, I am talking the difference between developing a whole game vs porting a game. The biggest parts of the job are done once the game is finished for one platform are they not? And given that the PS4 architecture is now the same as the PC, surely that reduces the costs and headache for porting. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Its not so great for getting out and about, or having getting to see the outdoors, but if you are strictly looking for the physical aspects, without having to worry about turning, that would be one way to go.

Have some numbers for you to shoot holes in: Google Doc Addressing Passive Scans only for now; will focus on Active Scans later. As a point-of-reference, a single damp'd MN Scout's has a 24dB profile, and a double damp'd MN Scout has an 18dB profile. Looking forward to your thoughts and feedback. Design Goals * Restore Range Amps to functional state without going overboard * Return AM Scout's role as "Scout Hunter" at short-to-mid range without throwing the MN Scout under the bus * Require greater investment to scan dampened units at close range @ OEK - I like the idea of fixed inner rings, but I don't think it is an absolutely necessity. Check out the values and tell me what you think. I think it is better, but I don't know how the community as a whole will like it. Sentinels might like the range increase, and Commandos the Precision decrease, but I don't know the Logis will like the range decrease.

One Eyed King Nos Nothi 11	Posted - 2015.08.24 01:14:00 - [2121] - Quote One thing I think would be interesting with Active Scanners would be if the initial scan starts out at the lowest dB of the scanner, than gradually increases over the course of the scan. This would be in addition to a tacnet mechanic that displays any scanned red in terms of brightness in relation to the scanner's profile. So if say they was a 10 dB active scan, and a 12 dB scout, that scout would show up as a faint blip for a small fraction of the scan's duration, while a 60 dB heavy may show up for the entire duration of the active scan, or close to it. Not only would it allow for some variability, but it would also give the ability to know what is what, or at least think they know. Perhaps you could max dampen an Assault, and make someone think you are a scout, and find a surprise, or a Sentinel dampening to Assault levels. Lastly, I think it should work like a cloak, in that it doesn't matter what the scan duration is, if you unequip it, it is no longer active. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

This was a problem because I could not tell how far away the nearest needle was, and especially because I could not tell if it was moving away or towards me. So, I was thinking, what can we do to fix this little problem, it isn't the biggest, but it's irritating. So far I have thought of a 'Status Symbol' that go into the upper right hand corner, and would be rather small, it would be green/blue if you have no been scanned, and once scanned, the message would pop up there for a few seconds and then disappear into a red icon.

The execution, not so much. Allow me an example. I am running, towards the enemy home objective, which happens to have a CRU, to either give my team an extra spawn option, or to attack the point. There is a merc by the supply depot, and he sees me, despite the fact I am cloaked, and starts to fire. At this point I have no option but to engage, or die. I switch to my knives, and sprint towards the side of the shooting merc hoping to avoid enough fire to make some sort of stand. By sprinting immediately after I switched weapons, I now decloaked, making myself completely visible to that merc, and any of his friends that happen to be in the area. Instead of having my knives out, I find that I can only melee with the cloak equipped in my hands, and having to switch to knives AGAIN, go through the delay AGAIN (despite no longer being cloaked), and possibly going through the glitch AGAIN. All this because I was never effectively cloaked to begin with. If the cloak is to be effective, there is zero reason I should be spotted so easily. Especially at a distance. My top two gripes, is that cloaking should not only be affected by speed, but also by distance. And that weapon delay should not take effect if the cloak is merely equipped but inactive. Everything else I can live with, I think. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

How much scan profile is low enough? I started playing Amarr Scout. I went full armor tanking with complex ferroscales for 520 HP of armor. I repair with a Compact Nanohive, which seems good enough repair rate. I do however feel a bit slow, so probably is better to put a red bottle? Idk, if I wanna be very fast I'd have just go CalScout or MinScout. I feel AmScout is meant to be tanky. In the highs I have 2 complex precision enhancers for 20 dB. Is this too low? I've been thinking there should be 2 myos there instead but I really don't wanna play scrubby. Though a jumping scout is fair game I guess since we're so squishy...So what to put in the highs? Fully dampened g-scout with cloack goes under 16db, you can scan down to 20db with proto focused scanner without g-logi skills, so yeah 20db is good, certainly will be more than enough for 99% of pubs. About the tank.. as I said before in your thread there is no particular role for the a-scout atm so can't help you with that, follow your personal taste PS. the numbers above are out of my head so I might be wrong, didn't log on in a long while Edit : on armour tanked suits I always tend to stack dmg mods, just to give the redberrie that "WTF?' reaction try that and replace 1 plate with a kincat "get there, do your job fast and disappeare even faster" If you ever want to know precision/dampening numbers, check the top of the first post. There is always an up to date spreadsheet. I think that you are probably hurting yourself carrying that much HP on a Scout. I could get an Assault, throw on a Complex Plate, Kincat, and a couple dampeners and have more HP AND lower profile. A good rule of thumb is to get to around 20 dB Profile, then add speed or HP from that point. The only two decent High Slot items are Myos and Shields. Maybe a PG Enhancer if you use a lower tier suit and want to use better stuff elsewhere. A lot of it comes down to what you want to accomplish, and how you play. I think having a range really helps, not only to be flexible for different circumstances, but to see what works best for you. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Keep working on those flanking routes, shenanigans and backstab techniques. I don't think that Rattati subscribes to the "scouts are supposed to be bad" model. If our efficiency relative to other classes is down (and it probably is) I suspect he'll do something about it rather than make excuses for it. Dust is many things, but first it is a shooter. We're all here to kill things, and if Scouts are overly inefficient enough at killing, I believe changes will be made. So keep doing what you're doing. Or skill GalLogi and ride out the storm with more reward, less effort and far less frustration. Like me ;-) Logis routinely do well averaging only 2-4 kills in PC. Scouts aren't bad, just not able to take on tanked assaults suits up front. I would hate for someone to buff scout HP or something to compensate for the lack of killing. The LAST thing we want is for scouts to become viable slayer suits again. I think we all hated that time a little on the inside. It was such a mockery of how this game was supposed to be played. I think it is one thing to not be able to take them head on, but something completely different if scouts can't even kill them using stealth. I very much hated the head on slayer scouts, but if we relegate the role to pissant then we might as well delete the role. Stealth and speed should be our slaying strengths, not HP, but I think we are at a point where they are both worth much less, or are such that other roles are overlapping too much. I have always felt that they fixed Assault Lites by creating Heavy Scouts. I agree with Shotty that the risk/rewards are still out of alignment. Logis have the same problem. It doesn't make it right.

Not to mention loads of heavies and Assaults that decided to come in the chat too. A lot of people wanted to play scouts only/mostly squads, even before 1.8, and it was hard to know what you were getting into when SU exploded. The biggest problem with NN is that it wasn't made via EVE therefore we had no moderation abilities, which is why people are still hesitant. Even more so than our corp, where we have the ability to kick people if they become a problem.

I really don't want to play other roles. I don't find them fun. I also resent feeling like I can only be effective in very fringe roles at best otherwise. Knifing and hacking used to be a rush with, at least at my skill level, an appropriate amount of risk and reward. Now the risks are greater, with little and sometimes even no reward.

And really, the time of HP stacked scouts (the old 1000hp shotgunners) is dead and gone. Assaults have been buffed significantly enough that we can't outslay them. That is a good thing. Unless that becomes the only viable play style, which we seem to be continually working towards. About the only way I can see TTK not being a problem would be if they reduced damage across the board minus high alpa weapons.

I heard that was mostly an idea started by Social Darwinists to justify some of their own stupid behavior. Evolution as Darwin saw it, from what I have heard on the subject, was that those most willing/able to adapt are the ones that survive. This makes much more sense given what he saw on the Galapagos, with so many species of bird and reptile, among other things, adapting to fill a niche. As to why stupidity is rewarded, is because even the smartest of us don't know everything. Sometimes crazy and unreasonable things happen in the world, statistical outliers that smart/reasonable people don't necessarily count on or expect, and even if they do, have severely limited capacity to predict exactly how that will play out. As a result, intelligent, pragmatic people tend to be right most of the time, however when insane things happen, there is always some crazy that happened to fall in just the right crazy train of thought so as to be lucky enough to survive. In one study of a certain kind of fish, there were risk averse and risk seeking personalities. During tough times, the risk averse did more poorly because they realized the odds weren't in their favor, so they did nothing, while the risk takers were too stupid to realize the risk was against them so while many of them took the risk and died, many took the risk and thrived. The opposite was true during good times. When the risk averse fish could thrive without taking risks, they didn't suffer losses, and their numbers grew. At the same time, risk taking fish were taking unnecessary risks, and though some surely succeeded, many did not and their numbers decreased. So it kind of makes sense to loathe the individual stupidity of someone, but at the same time, give the broader varied stupidity of a group at least a little credit for having at least a few people stupid enough to believe in the improbable/seemingly impossible such that our species survives.

Tl; Dr I have no problem with it, but it fixes one of the most minor problems with the cloak, so don't expect significant improvement with cloak use. This is a strange argument. It's a bit like saying the ion pistol's damage isn't bad because you run 4x complex sidearm damage modifiers on every fit. It's a big problem for cloaks because their entire purpose is invalidated if you haven't ticked some arbitrary fitting checkbox. An equipment whose sole function is stealth shouldn't require 2-3 fitting slots to actually make you stealthy. You can claim whatever else is the biggest problem, be it the swap time or whatever, but swapping isn't the reason you fit the cloak. If it can't make you invisible then it could have an instant swap time for all the difference it makes. Not the same argument as your pistol. We are talking tacnet vs visual/chevron. If someone wants to be stealthy, they want to stay off tacnet first. Let me give you 2 situations: 1) You rely on cloak for stealth, but do not dampen enough. At this point, if you show up on someone's tacnet, you will have a chevron over your head. If you simply remove the chevron, you will still show up on tacnet... They will still know you are there, and their crosshairs will still turn red. All they will do is point close enough to where tacnet says you are, and look for a blurry spot until their crosshairs turn red. At most, you have made them work slightly harder to kill you, but you have not done a damn thing to increase your survivability, because you didn't dampen enough. 2) You were smart enough to dampen and not show on their tacnet. Removal of chevron while cloaked is a moot point. So, in the end, removal of chevron while cloaked if you still have too much precision does little. They know you are there, even if their eyes have to work just a little harder. The problem with the cloak is not the chevron. The fits I use most are all fits that are below the scans of the vast majority of suit's middle and outer ring scans. I still die frequently while cloaked, not because I have a chevron over my head, but because the cloak is still so visible. Often at distances far greater than even the best passive scans, by such suits as heavies or commandoes that don't even have the Precision to pick me up with any of their EWAR rings. The chevron does very little, as it only shows up when someone already knows you are in the area because you are already on their tacnet. What point is saying this will make someone more stealthy if you are still on tacnet? Especially considering the nature of tacnet, and not even having to have LoS on someone for them to show up. If CCPreally wants to make the cloak a viable stealth tool, they are going to have to do something much more drastic visually than simply removing the chevron. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Designs change. It seems kind of lazy to say that designs change after the fact. It sounds more like a cop out because they can't fix it. I don't recall anywhere Rattati saying he intends the cloak delay to affect any point which you are holding the cloak, even if it is inactive, or that he wants the cloak delay to result in weapon switching being negated and that you should have to deal with 2 cloak delays for the same weapon switch resulting in you running at someone trying to stab them by not having knives out because you sprinted after you switched to knives instead of switching to knives after you sprint, forcing you to run uncloaked at someone who has a gun and the DPS to kill you in less than half a second. It would be fair to say that the mechanic is unwanted but difficult to fix, and that though this is unintended, they would rather keep it in knowing it is broken than remove the current way the delay is implimented, but to simply say, well lets go ahead and make that the design goal because we can't fix it is just pure laziness.

It turns out that they make Disney moves to have exaggerated expressions and body language on purpose, because Walt or someone else up high wanted all the movies to be able to follow even if you couldn't hear the dialog. As a result, this autistic child learned about expressing and understanding emotions. It developed into a weekly event where they not only watched the movies, but acted them out. It was so helpful to the child, that when he eventually grew up and went to college, he started a group with his autistic friends to watch and act out Disney movies.

That seems far fetched. 2) What purpose is served by changing cloak delay other than to smoothen out the animation? It is less that it is the "scanned" in terms of passive or active, so much as that you are, "spotted" and you gain the attention of someone regardless of method. At this point, it is a matter of trying to evade and prepare to retaliate, usually at the same time. Which involves switching to a weapon and sprinting for cover or to at least make yourself a moving target. The problem is that if you switch to a weapon, then sprint, the act of sprinting negates the weapon switch, such that you are now sprinting while holding the cloaking device. Then, if you have not died yet, you have to re switch to the weapon. At this point, the delay is functionally 3 seconds because of how it is implemented (ie 3 second delay, 2 second decloaking process, leading to a 1 second period where you are decloaked and can't fire vs the original instant decloak with a 1 second delay). That is several seconds worth of defenselessness while already having a fraction of the HP. If you are lucky, and can avoid the switching problem, and actually switch to your weapon, you still have 3 full seconds of defenselessness against an opponent who sees you and is shooting directly at you. When the goal of the cloak is stealth, and you feel like you have to fight the mechanics of the cloak as much as anything else, then it becomes a matter of whether or not you can actually do better without it. And for many people that is the case. 1) If the purpose of the cloak is a defensive measure, it shouldn't result in leaving you significantly defenseless. 2) As seen above, the current cloak mechanics create unnecessary drawbacks when using the cloak. Perhaps the worst of all is just in equipping the cloak so that you are able to activate it if necessary. In that instance, if you need to switch to anything else, like to lay an uplink, scan, or blow an RE, you have to wait 3 seconds for no reason. The delay affecting even the inactive cloak makes it so much of a liability people just don't run it. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

I'm leery of improving scouts madsively because of my own experiences with even my low skill scout suits. I have an easier time murdering people than I do in my sentinels without a cloak. I don't think it would take much to push them over the top. What do the overall numbers say? I was never capable of slaying in the most scout friendly builds (though I run a very specific style and don't armor tank) and Lightning was always able to slay even in the worst builds. That is why I always trust the overall numbers most. I certainly don't want scouts to be OP, and if certain ones are over performing we are more than happy to offer nerf suggestions for over performers. I don't know what to suggest about the reticle save to say it should not be removed at the same time opacity is changed. If we become harder to see, red reticle should stay the same.

If CCPreally wants to make the cloak a viable stealth tool, they are going to have to do something much more drastic visually than simply removing the chevron. 1) Don't you always have red crosshairs when you target them? I don't think that's relevant. You're assuming that a) people will actually even notice you on the minimap and b) that you're not moving when they try and find you, both of which are less likely than you're making them out to be. When you cloak up and move around, you're hoping that people don't see you. Chevrons make it REALLY easy for people to see you. Ergo, removing chevrons would make you harder to detect, thus increasing your survivability. I don't really see the issue here. 2) Yes, clearly being fully damped should and does make you stealthier than not being fully damped. I never claimed that shouldn't be the case. I said that not being fully damped shouldn't render the cloak completely useless. To use the cloak properly right now entails disallowing the use of your primary weapon, undergoing a long swap time should you choose to swap back, giving up an equipment slot, giving up 2-3 low slots, giving up your passive scans, and becoming a shimmering purple beacon for all the world to see. That just isn't okay. Something's got to give. Am I missing something? Does everyone just glue their eyes to their minimaps instead of actually looking at the screen? Because in all my time playing Dust I can never remember using the minimap to locate people when I could just look for a chevron. The minimap seems like the strictly worse option. While I haven't played in awhile, it has probably been since late spring, or earlier, since I have seen a cloaked scout with a chevron. On the other hand, I have seen lots of little blurry guys running around. I don't run Precision, and I don't see a lot of other people doing the same. Maybe in PC where there is a lot more min/maxing, and some heavy duty active scans going on, but there again, I would think people will dampen up. I don't think it is the boon, because I don't see the problem occurring enough to actually call it a problem. And I know from the viewpoint of the cloaked scout, I die all the time, from people who can't possbly scan me. Often at distances that beat passives, and certainly without "You have been scanned" popping up on my screen. I am not saying the a chevron over a cloaked scout isn't a dead give away. I am saying it happens so rarely that taking it away makes little difference in general game play. And I very much watch out on my tacnet, because it pics up things I can't see, or don't always see. I often use cover, so my own sight lines are limited, particularly in city maps. Once or twice I have run into a scout who has been out by themselves, only to have them turn around and shoot because they actually maxed their Precision. Wouldn't have matter if I had been cloaked (I wasn't). In intense firefights in cities, like someone (Varoth, Ares?) said, it would be very helpful in the middle of a city where a scout is in the middle of a large battle, and there are lots of blues in the area. But how often do you see scouts run cloaked directly into fire fights? I don't do it, that is an Assault's job. And if I am there, I am sure as hell not cloaked and am trying to stab someone before I die. I just think that given how most people run their scout suits removal of the chevron alone will not noticeably affect scout performance or cloak use. I can always be wrong, and maybe things have changed drastically since I last played, but that is my perception. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

If a chevron being over a less than optimally dampened scout were a significant reason for not wearing a cloak, why is it that I have never actually heard that complaint before, or have heard about it so rarely that I had forgotten about hearing it at all? I have been in several "Cloak buff" threads, and of all the reasons people complain one way or another about the cloak, I don't recall there being much, if any, discussion regarding a chevron over a cloaked scout's head. Maybe there is a secret group of people on the forum that have discussed it somewhere I haven't seen, or maybe the population of the forums is such a poor representation of cloak users that the chevron really is a significant deterrent, but I would have to see some major data, or an increase in cloak usage (assuming no other changes) before I will buy that the chevron is as big a deal as you think it is.

Should we spend our time and effort asking for what should be done, even if there's near zero chance that it'd actually get done? I agree that reducing Assault slot count by one would be the very best shot at better class balance, but I don't see that happening in the current environment. Think back to the Speed/HP Curve. The changes made perfect sense and were plainly warranted; even so, Rattati had to cram the curve down the throats of a moaning MedFrame Majority. For many players, preserving advantage was (and is) more important than doing the right thing. Now imagine the headache Rattati would've had to endure if CPM2 had been in office at the time. Hooray for good timing. Point being, we can ask for Assault nerfs, but the requests aren't likely going to gain any traction with CPM, even if nerfing Assaults is the right thing to do. The next best thing we can do is push for reasonable and measured Scout buffs. I don't think that we could ask for those changes reasonably, but was merely giving my perception. I personally don't think it good for the long-term health of the game to ignore such things. If we don't fix the real problems, we only kick the can down the road. I also think that if weapon and item normalization were addressed, such issues as Assault slots would be minimized. That is why I spent most of the post addressing that problem.

Now maybe if TTK were lower that would make more sense. But if say, the difference in DPS between pro and standard ScR were only 3% instead of 10%, you could give Pro much higher clip size and std much lower clip size. Look how grenades have been adjusted. Same damage, with radius sizes being the difference. This is what I would like to see, personally, across items and weapons. Mods would have to be a whole different story as many have too few facets to adjust to begin with. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

It has always created a bit of an uneven playing field for Minmatar, when it was intended to be helpful. I can see the same thing happening for new players. This is why I look forward to the numbers, which hopefully get saved next time. On a slightly related note, this is good thing about being an older gamer. Playing many of the old games, which did not save continuously or have plentiful save points, forced you to learn to save at every opportunity. Nothing like having to replay 1 hour (or more) of gameplay because you neglected to save, and then died. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

I don't want it bringing back the wiggle wiggle. 2) If a std NK, costs 11 CPU and 2 PG (according to Protofits), and gets someone a 10% increase to all speed, and an ADV KC costs 18 CPU and 9 PG (again Protofits), but only yields an 8% increase to just sprint speed, how many people would opt to use a less fittingly intense item that doubles as a weapon instead of the more costly and less effective STD or ADV KC? I am not 100% opposed to the notion, however, the only thing worse than a slighly UP item/style is making it OP (see scouts/cloaks of 1.8), and creating such a great hate for them that they get nerfed to be even more UP than they started with. I would rather see a more gradual increase, if its possible, like 1.02 or 1.05 and move up in increments, not unlike what we did with backpedal, which actually ended up in a pretty good place off the bat, though some of us wanted it even lower before having seen it in action.

One of my concerns is that if you were to increase the efficacy of the lower tier modules still further, the efficiency savings in switching to these would be such that previously 'glass cannon' proto fits would actually be significantly more tanky than previously. If such a shift happened on a large scale, would we not observe a decrease in average hitpoint disparity between low-end and high-end suits? Sure, it might free up resources for other things (such as more proto guns) but we've already demonstrated that proto guns offer far less advantage between tiers than present proto modules. What about EXP and Officer weapons? These are becoming larger problems, even if they cut off the flow of Officer weapons, because enough people stockpiled them. Where do those fit on the curve? @ Cloak I would rather see Type C Medium Length/Profile. What I am most concerned about with regards to C is the possibility for use on other suits. The cost would have to be large enough. Plus I would have some concern that it could lead to adding to the HP issues, as if were too dampening, Scouts would just use HP modules instead of Damps.

Do you honestly think that ONE guy strongarmed Rattati into making those changes? Like everyone else was against it, as well as Rattati and he just kept insisting until it went through? As for the rest: Strong Active scans are still necessary to keep scouts honest running damps. Scout eWAR was overnerfed, but rightfully so, I remember the Cal Scout permascanning hell very well in PC. AM Scout has always been terrible, Logi's only became super strong passive scan machines AFTER fallout was implemented, and even then, almost nobody runs it. Only ones I can think of are MIn Logi's who follow fatties around. The current situation is an amalgamation of various changes over time. Pinning it all on one guy is a tad extreme. Sounds to me like you want a scapegoat. While they CAN'T force ideas down Rattati's throat, or single handedly convince CCP to put in anything... they CAN however, filter out the points they don't agree with, and present ideas more to their liking. Ideally, CPM members would state something along the lines of, "Hey, here is my idea that I am presenting, there are other wants/ideas of the community such as A, B, and C, which I don't agree with for these reasons..." They should be moderators of the discussion, and work to understand all sides of an issue, and not merely be married to their own ideas, without at least demonstrating that there are alternative wants/perceptions/thoughts etc. I would suggest that there have been CPM in the past that have modeled the best well (Wolf, despite all his flaws, and Cross for sure), while there are/have been others, which will remain nameless, that I suspect have acted more the filter.

I also count the min speed as a bonus in my book, but the difference between other suits is not enough to use hacking over a different one, so YMMV. All in all I think having the same baseline for the most important stats (profile) for scouts makes a lot of sense, and it's how it used to be anyway. This is precisely the point. If knives are equally effective, there is no point to the Minja. You can say what you want about speed hacks, but with all the Low Slots, Gal Scouts can fit enough CBs to hack fast enough. The marginal difference between Gal hacks and Min hacks would not be worth it, in just the same way speed differences are largely irrelevant. You would turn the Min Scout into what the Amarr scout is currently. A scout with unique bonuses no one wants because they can do well enough on the other scouts, plus have advantages Minmatar don't. And considering Minmatar have much less HP, you may as well delete the suit and save the reasources. It is not unprecedented for suits to have weapons bonuses.

No. When you are at 200 ish HP, shield don't mean sh*t. It is like the recent shield buff. Adding a few points to the threshold was purely academic, since you have to be quite a distance further than the effective range of a weapon for it to matter. Likewise, I rarely survive being fired upon, because HP is so low. Again, look at the Amarr. Has better Stamina and HP than the Gal, but no one runs it, because you may as well go either Gal Scout, or Assault. The bonus may be unique, but it is so ineffective that it doesn't make up for it's shortcomings. The only way Minmatar would have any role in your scenario would be if Precision were to matter again, in which case it could use it's superior number of High Slots as leverage, yet a Precision bonus was added to Gal, which negates the advantage, so again, Minmatar would be inferior. Firstly, again, because with the number of Lows on a Gal, they can hack and run reasonably well relative to Minjas, with more HP. Secondly, because when hacking, Precision and awareness are important to prevent yourself from being snuck up on, in which case the edge goes to Gal. The only way to do it would even begin to give us a role, would be to ensure that hacking speed margins between us and others were significant enough to make people want it. But let's face it, hacking is a more niche role than knifing, and if someone had to choose a suit that hacked the average speed, but could do other things, and a suit that could hack really really fast, and do not much else, people are going to choose the former. One thing I remember from the 1.0 - 1.7 Uprising (?) days, was that, even considering how few scouts there were ( 5-10%?), 80% of those were Gal scouts. And of those, many chose the role because of knifing. Removal of the bonus not only minimizes the utility of the Minmatar Scout, but it erases it's identity. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

And I think this is what CCP's vision of the game is all about. Each racial suit has it's specialty. In terms of scouts the Min is the knifer, the Gallente is the ghost, the Amarr is (supposed to be?) the scout hunter and the Cal is the ranged scout. If profile is normalized at 30db across the board and the racial bonus profile to Gal/Cal is removed then the Gallente looses it's identity in one sense and yet the Min retain's it's focus. Giving the Amarr a pistol bonus makes it a well rounded pistoleer and the Caldari could still be considered the scan range king with it's racial bonus but then what to do about the Gallente, it becomes the scout hunter with the precision bonus? I guess this is one way to do it. I, personally, have never had a problem with the Gal scouts identity. And while I would have no qualms with making the bonus class wide, I also have no problem with finding other ways of balance. For example, we don't have class wide HP, or speed stats. Are there other base stats we can change? Could we make dampening a scout wide bonus while also reducing the base profile of the Gal scouts by 4 or 5 dB so they still retain that advantage and identity? Would that make them OP? Would that be considered an extra bonus? I can't say I have all the answers, but I would hate to use a nuclear option before it was absolutely necessary, with any scout race, or any class in general.

Maybe not as lone wolfs, but you look at PC where passive scans are shared, and I would be willing to bet they have one or two Amarr with maxed range and precision sharing anything but dampened scouts within an 80 m radius with several team members watching its back and killing anything that shows up. Add to that 10 - 15 m of range where even the most dampened scouts can't beat, and now you have eliminated the Alpha weapons of SGs and NKs from being serious threats.

You also have to consider the state of the game. As more people reach insane amounts of SP, there is less specialization, so there are few truly dedicated to anything, much less knives. And with the new EWAR and other changes, knifing has been increasingly marginalized. I used to find it enjoyable and rewarding in most of the builds, but this last is a bridge too far.

They will most likely be wrong, but rational conclusions do not have to be right conclusions, merely logical. Maybe instead of getting irrationally (ironic) worked up about the topic, why not just bring something else up to discuss more to your liking?

Yea, that's the unfortunate reality I came to understand. It doesn't help that uncloaking bugs out half of the time and I have to reswitch to my knives.

Also being unable to charge while running is f***** killing me, I can't believe that hasn't been fixed in three years. Beeing able to kill people with an uncharged swipe would be neat, but I don't see that happening any time soon (even with proto knives)...

They don't want us to charge while sprinting. There was a glitch where that was possible at one point, and they squashed that real quick. Cloak switching is a big reason I don't want to play. Can't tell you how many times I did the same thing, and had to switch 2, or even 3 different times. Its worse when you are spotted while cloaked, and now have 3 to 9 seconds where you can't even fight back. The trick is to sprint then switch if I remember correctly, because it is the sprint mid switch that causes the problem. I almost always charge personally, but again with HP creep, it has become nearly a necessity. And now that you have the inner rings, and you walk so slowly while you charge, you just make yourself a big target. This makes learning the Raptor Jump all the more important. Jump, charge mid air, and release just prior to landing. It is almost a necessity, particularly with targets you are chasing from behind. Sometimes, I found it best to even jump OVER the merc, do a 360, and knife them that way, as once you hit the inner ring, they become aware, and aren't always expecting you to jump over them. If you are knifing, pro knives are a must now. Used to be able to get by with most targets and Adv knives on a Minja. Not anymore. Last point, aim for the head. There is no noise or headshot indicator, but you DO get a bonus with your knives, and if you are going to go in without charging, aiming for the head might be your best bet.

There is no such thing as jumping too high or too far. Getting the timing down is the tricky part, because you have to judge the distance of your target. If your target keeps running straight, and you jump over their head, then you give them an easy kill. It is not an easy skill to use, and will take some time, but you might find it useful. I personally always liked Skirmish. Plenty of ways to hack and cause havoc. Lots of open space where lone mercs wander and can be taken out. Lots of people trying to hack and rehack your points for you to knife. I have never liked dom or ambush. Acquisition would be cool if hacking weren't so fast for everyone in that game mode. It kind of defeats the purpose of the hacking skill. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

So I can see how from a financial standpoint, given you are being stomped or your team is stomping, that a bare bones cheap fit can minimize frustration. And like I say, I literally have a Minja version of that fit. I also miss the old days. I miss theory crafting and debating, but things are just so dead both in game and on forums that there is little else to do. I get bored with the theorycrafting now because we have dealt with the same build for months and have dealt with the same scout environment for going on a year.

Different profit centers, sure, but Valkyrie's a big publicity bump for CCP. Frontlining w/ Oculus Rift's release, and all. No telling what the "controversial" 1.3 has in store, but I can see them not wanting us rabble rousing too loudly within earshot of critics at the same time that a new product is being launched. I was kind of wondering something similar, and whether or not it might have to do with cash flow. My problem with that thinking is that first and foremost, I can't imagine Dust having large enough sales for any significant effects to be seen if there were a dip in revenue. I could be greatly mistaken, but given player numbers I just can't see it. Second, is that by not making official statements like devblogs or patch notes, anything said on the forums to such a small number of such a small player population will likely not trickle out to enough of the people for it to matter. Yes there would be an uproar, but the numbers roaring would be so small that I can't see any media covering it outside of Dust players who are bloggers. When FF14 happened during a time when player numbers were much, much larger, I didn't see any main stream press stories about it. All the links people posted to here were much smaller outlets that I probably would never have found on my own, and I play the game. In contrast, I have seen Valkyrie mentioned on much larger publications, and just can't imagine little old Dust could make any difference even if they shuttered it.

Also, the 1.3 they said was coming isn't. Yep, that announcement is why I've popped in though I'm afraid I'll need more info to satisfy my curiosity. How did we end up on 1.3? When I left, I believe we were on patch 1.8. Did they reset the patch numbers? Or did they decide the best way to improve dust was to remove patches? EDIT: I see now that we went from Uprising to Warlord which reset the patch number. How have CCP handled our beloved scouts since 05/14? I remember us being slightly too powerful when I left with a general scout buff and the release of the cloaks. Have they handled the balancing well since I left? Fumbled it as so often the case while I was here? Or have they just let the game's balance collect dust () and only done minor things like bug fixes? Any new toys? Nerf bat city my friend. Cloaks finally got the delay they needed, however it is clunky, takes 3 seconds for what is supposed to be a 1 second delay (2 seconds to decloak, one second uncloaked and vulnerable), so that when you try to switch, you sometimes don't. This delay is also in effect just for having the cloak equipped, even if it is not active. Cloaking also makes your EWAR blind. You only have 15% of your scanning range. So if a heavy is sitting around a corner, and is 16% of your range away, you have no idea. EWAR was reworked into 3 sets of rings, in terms of scanning. The middle ring is what was traditional profile intensity, though it's furthest edge is now 90% of range, which has also changed. For full numbers, check out the stats on the first page of the thread. The inner ring is now intended to be so low that it is usually unbeatable, no matter what your skill is, set up, or cloak, generally with minimal effort on the scanners part, unless they are a heavy. That range is usually around 5m, give or take a few, but is awfully killer to knifing. Myos have now added a jumping bonus as well as melee strength. People can now jump really high. Its interesting with the places you can reach, however, as a squishy scout, you now have Assaults (much buffed) raining down MDs with little accuracy, and are able to kill you quite quickly. Medium frames got an EWAR buff, and Logis now have better passive scan range than Scouts. Medium frames also got a profile reduction, if I remember correctly. Knives, MDs, and HMGs now do full damage to vehicles. HMGs got nerfed. Bandwidth was implimented. Now each suit has its on Bandwidth limit. This affects EQ. Each piece of EQ has a Bandwidth. So, say you have a suit with 6 BW, and try placing 2 Uplinks, which each take up 4 Bandwidth. The second UL you lay will exceed your capacity, which will make your first UL zap out of existence. The amount of BW you have available depends upon the suit you are using, not what you have used in the past. Since Sentinels have zero BW, a player can no longer spawn in a Logi, lay tons of UL and Hives, and then switch to a Sent and slay while racking up WP with their links. All the links will just disappear if they switch. Those are the big ones I can think of off the top of my head. I am sure there are others. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Well, I made it work then, hopefully I'll be able to make it work once more (once I shake off my Minmatar Capital Ship's worth of rust). The only problem is that pre 1.8, people didn't expect scouts, or how to handle scouts. They would chase us around a circular console not recalling we were faster, at which point we would go from being chased, to knifing them in the back. That doesn't happen now. People never used to check an objective for REs. If you ran around a corner or through a door, they would always chase you right through. Now, they toss grenades, and take very wide corners.

Perhaps one of the reasons I liked the Daredevil series on netflix. Not a special effects fiasco, and more centred around characters and development. I also am very impressed with the DC animated movies. They pretty much use the comics as storyboards for the animation. Rumours of an animated Killing Joke are abound right now. I got started on the 2nd season, but wasn't terribly impressed with the first. I could see why others liked it, but just didn't really get into it. Same with Jessica Jones.

I've gotta give Marvel some credit for Guardians of the Galaxy though. That one was pretty dang entertaining. Guardians of the Galaxy had everything you need to make a hit movie nowadays. Excellent Soundtrack Likable Main Characters Sparodic comedy in good taste Easy to understand and engaging plot Seriously, combine the above with even decent actors and CG and you'll have a hit. Even that I found disappointing (largely because of overhyped reviews). And it had Karen Gillan, whom I am in love with. I don't care if she was bald. I will say that I also loved the Watchmen, but that has been a long time ago. I was looking forward to The Tick coming out on Amazon, after being a huge fan of the cartoon and short lived live action show (what is not to love about a villan named Apocalypse Cow and her fiery teets).

Though I don't see the point of a scan range circle if there's a precision curve. A precision curve means the distance from which someone is scannable is variable, so how can there be a definitive scan range? Unless there's something we don't know about I'd recommend ditching the scan range circle. It might be just a reference point for average detection range, but I think it's just going to confuse people when they get blips outside the circle, or don't get them from enemies inside. Perhaps the scan precision varies within the circle depending on distance, but there is simply no scanning outside the circle. This makes sense. With current EWAR, if it were to be graphed, it would look like a set of steps, while new EWAR may look like a curve or a line up to the point it ends.

First thought was how these rewards will transit over. Email confirmation! PSN registered email to player x will get rewards to selected character when it is registered with nova. My second guess on what the rewards will be. Pretty sure the rewards will be "Since you had this many points in X Faction/Role, you will be given free points for those suits in this game so you could start playing as them, but only to start you out". Either way, I know they'll be dumb. I'd expected something similar, some dilution of SP from here to there, but since they said you gotta play the skill to earn the skill...I'm thinking there is no SP to spend as such. When they said you have to play to earn something, I thought they meant that you have receive a waiver for 10 militia suits of your choice to use to earn their STD variant, or something like that. I think there will be a SP system, just more 'noob friendly' than the one we currently have. It sounded more to me like the progression system rewards players using an item, suit, mod etc. So in order to upgrade a shotgun, you will have to use shotguns. I personally prefer that kind of system, particularly with Dust. I miss the times when being a Scout, Logi etc, or even an Omni Soldier really meant something. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind.

Do we all just start out with everything and only level up what we want at the time? Seems like balls to me. Maybe it's because I'm tired, but that's how it comes off to me, in the way that you put it. Anywho, if you want a meaningful build, you place level caps, so that you really have to choose how you want your character to play as, because eventually, even with the system that Nova might try to implement, if there is no cap, characters will keep growing and branch out to other roles, if given enough time. My understanding is that there are basic suits/weapons/mods everyone is able to use, not unlike a militia item. Using them enables you to move up in item levels. It is in part so new players can have access to multiple roles, while at the same time rewarding those who take the time to use the actual gear. No more saving SP for when the meta changes, then using whatever is popular/OP in the next build, regardless of whether or not you used it or care about the item previously. Think about Scouts at 1.8 release, and how the accompanying respec exacerbated the problem. While I don't think that the people working on Dust (turning out to have really been working on Legion) at the time would have bothered to fix anything, I think the current group being more practical and responsible,will be able to acknowledge and address issues before they get out of hand without as much damage and FotM chasing f*ckers.

The extra .5m range did a ton of good, but when I first started knifing, you could literally stand behind a crouching sniper, as close as you could get, charge your knives, and only get the blue sheild flash with no damage. When there is a point at which knifing a stationary target is a risk, that is a much worse scenario. That problem was fixed well before the extra distance, and relatively speaking added more value to knifing than did the extra distance (and reduced time between trigger and action that took so much effort and skill to master, which was the same hotfix/patch as the range increase).

The whole fun in knifing was that it was a niche role, and that not all situations were knifing situations. What made it fun, was find a way to MAKE them knifing situations. It was a difficult, and challenging role. Find yourself being chased by someone shooting at you, with more HP? Round a corner, and see if they were stupid enough to follow. Someone have you dead to rights outside your range? Run and hide, and wait for them to leave. Or break line of site, and see if you can find a way to flank them, and get close. Sure, lots of people used knives as secondary alternatives, and I hope that perhaps the default set of knives will suit them just fine. But those of us who were knifers before 1.8, when we put up with the bad HD (knifing people who were standing still, and doing no damage...) yet really loved what we did, it would be a shame to reduce the role to meaninglessness. I don't think that all suits having knives is necessarily bad, I just hope that they do it in the right way so that those of us who are dedicated can still find our place.

I would personally prefer the default knives to be of a blander variety, with Nova Knives being a more specialized weapon. Personal thoughts: 1) How awesome would it be if we had new types of knives? I think it safe to assume that we can look forward to exactly that. Why waste time designing a "melee slot" if the only usable item is a single set of knives? 2) http://imgur.com/IeaUIzU 3) Getting knife kills was pretty tough, and knifing in any suit other than a scout suit only made it tougher. Think EWAR. Think comparative mobility. Think back to the dreaded, full-speed backpedal :-) I remember one of you goofballs running around trying to shank mercs in a Min Heavy; it was hilarious to watch. Point being, I don't think a proper Bastard need worry about other roles displacing lightweights as the ultimate sneaky backstabbers. And if the new setting is ship corridors (vs the great outdoors), there will assuredly be plenty of room for shenanigans. 4) To add to 3, knifing was an absolute blast in DUST. I actually like the idea of other classes getting a chance to get in on the fun. More duels! It is not that I am concerned about other roles being able to knife per se. I think I did wear it on other suits just for fun, and it was Musturd who went around in a Min Sent knifing people. It was indeed hilarious. What I want is that dedicated knifing, or melee should be rewarded, vs everyone having a set of Ishnooks, being an afterthought, or in another possibility, that because everyone has knives they would be nerfed to pointlessness. I tried knifing in Planetside 2, and the knives were so week that it was pointless to even bother. I think with regards to everyone having a melee slot, I think that there should be more than just knives. Think sledgehammers and chainsaws. It would be cool if there were multiple avenues of melee fighting, not just knifing. Former CEO of the Land of the BIind. Any double entendre is unintended I assure you.

For a weapon that only worked in extreme situations, a user would typically have their other weapon out just in case, whether they use it or not. The knives, being so situational, were they really worth using an entire sidearm slot for? I'm not talking about the extreme masochists like the people in this channel, I'm talking about the Dust population in general. For the general DUST population, I don't think they were. You would have to change your entire playstyle to accommodate the knives and have a use for them.

Remember that in Nova, for now, it sounds like everyone is going to have a melee slot. Knives may be a default weapon from the sound of it.
