he's possibly the best sniper of all time. He used to have a kdr of 45.11 before he played pc. He might still be a scout. More than exraple ever was

Edit: Heavenly Daughter also had a kdr over 30, never seen the killer, just been sniped, but I think she's potentially a scout as well.

Starting to wonder why this is not cQc Scouts United. None talking about Sniper Scout. Hey guess what 1.2 didn't do anything to my K/D ratio. It's still going up. I still am hard to be found do to all my profile dampening. only thing changed is I now have to actually try when i aim my rifle since leg/foot/arm shots no longer count as a hit. (no more killing turret hackers from there feet). From the post here the requirements should be a short range weapon with the scout suit because it seems you all think scout is only the ninja running shotgun or some other cQc combat weapon.

Scout: A soldier or other person sent out ahead of a main force so as to gather information about the enemy's position, strength, or movements. But for how most see it in this game its a ninja that runs ahead of the group to kill everything they see head on vs running ahead of the group to actually scout and maybe find a nice place to hide to jump out from behind after a friendly squad comes in to attack. You know you can have the highest K/D ration in every game but if your TEAM loses your still a loser

I play a sniper scout. I do not join squads becase for what I have been told enemy I see goes on EVERYONEs radar where as if i was in a squad what i see is only shown on squads radar. I'm a scout for the team not just a squad so if I see 6 enemeys moving in on an objective i am helping the team with enemy positions as I am also giving them sniper cover and support. I can see the ninja hiding in the corners of what seems to be empty objectives to allow ground to know he is there even if i cant shoot them. If I had a mic I could be alot more helpful but still what good is that when all the squads wont here me and I dont join a squad because I play for the team not the squad that and the fact voice glitches and lag in this game is terrible.

So I keep asking myself what are all these fast running ninjas doing i see just running everywhere. your not hidden in my scope and really easy targets for me as I sit behind a rock and enjoy my cigarette letting you run till you get farther away or in a position harder to figure out my position. All that running and gunning is called scouting?

What's our niche?

Guys, guys, I find that a lonely, humble scout can turn the tide in Skirm easily. Dom. it's a bit harder, for the number of hostiles in one spot. In OMS, it's amazing, but there's no point. It's really hard to notice other scouts doing the same, but I'm positve it happens.
In skirm. I tip my hat to those scouts who go across the map with their one-equipment backpacks and hack that point. It's truly a small blessing.

I turn the tide in our favor and win. I can see this clearly. Sometimes when I go CQs, I am glad for the brave folks who hack objectives across the map it helps a ton!

I'm confused (don't worry though, it's common). Our only participation requirement is that participants be Scouts. It is true that many here are CQC-oriented Scouts, but we have quite a few Scout Snipers in the Registry as well. You sound like a Scout Sniper. Would you like to join the Scout Registry?

I had posted a few days ago for an add to the registry and already in the Scouts United channel. Seems like a great community. I was just starting to think it seems more cQc oriented. So was wondering is this the right place for me.

It works in PC's at rare points. Played a game vs. OSG and happened to notice that they left E unguarded except for one guy. Knifed him, and hacked the objective. 5 people spawned in right before the hack finished and I ran back to the bridge. They seemed to forget about my teammates as they chased me down and ran into my teams fire on open ground. We took the objective and held it for awhile until they retook their anchor.

Not a big victory, but defiantly turned the tide. We won by about 3 ticks on the MCC, and that cap probably won the game in the long run.

I think the reason that you don't see a lot of posts relating to sniper scouts is because many, many snipers have opted out of the scout suit. Some very good snipers have been very vocal about using Medium suits for sniping due to the lack of advantages they perceive when using the scout suit to snipe:

1.) Low benefit from the reduced scan profile or precision (as scan range on most suits in only 10m anyway, and snipers are typically far away)
2.) Low HP so inability to tank counter sniper fire
3.) Low number of high slots for damage mods
4.) Low benefit from scouts additional speed/mobility

While I don't think sniper scouts personally are as disadvantaged as many make out, I believe I (and you, apparently) are in the minority. There are many scouts here. Welcome, if you decide to stay. Another opinion is always welcome.

At present, we have no niche. Scout Snipers need a boost in efficacy as much as their CQC-oriented brothers. I've hunted down many a sniper on many a hill. It'd be cool if Scout snipers could vanish more effectively when hunted.

Since we're on the topic of sniping, I've petitioned CCP to add dinosaurs to stalk and eat red-line campers. Maybe Scout Snipers could be immune to dinosaur attacks too ?

I like dinosaurs. Can we get them on the MCC as well? Jump or get eaten.

Everyone fears a scout in CQC. Either with a shot gun or nova knives.

They may die a lot but hey are also great killers.

I fail to see why they are considered underpowered.

What are you saying needs to be buffed on them?
