o7 Shotty. Unofficial Scout Leader. It was never about being the scout with the greatest K/D. It was about leadership and you showed it. I am APPALLED that your work never even received a blue tag... not even to troll.
I agree with the above. I would be down for a boycott, but at this point our numbers have dwindled to the point that CCP might not even take notice. We need to think of an effective strategy. It needs to be large in scale and it needs to be done together - all at once.

Hit me up if you make the move to Destiny. I will be there, waiting. You would like the Hunter class.
Also, I fully support the boycott. Make a page. Let em see the hate.

Goddammit.
This was an awesome thread, and thank you Shotty. I actually felt important playing as a Scout, being up on the registry. But i understand the pain it has been. I had seen a change in your posts, you seemed more... cynical.
Nonetheless, i only played one match in your squad, and it was a pubstomp (we got stomped), but from then on, i realized that running with a scout squad was much better than solo.
Thank you.

Honestly though what were they thinking?! They've been taking us for granted for so long. Then they insulted us with a 6m range "buff" in 1.6 and expect us to sit still for 3 more months before our next "buff". They've given no indication they are working on our issues. I apologize to every other class of player in this game, but you're problems and complaints are weak sauce.
Tankers? I quake in fear at the sight of a militia tank, even in this build.
Heavies? I dare not get near a heavy in my scout gk.0
The worst are medium players who have the GAUL to complain about their suits.
The only class that I feel sympathy towards is DS pilots and their concerns are being addressed at least somewhat in the next update.
The game is so broken right now it is ridiculous. I LOVE what they're doing with factional warfare but am so incredibly sad that I won't be able to participate. I'm finding out that I like to spend more time on the forums than on actually playing the game. I played maybe 6 matches today. All 6 stomps. 5 times I was stomped on by proto medium duvolle-wielding d#uche bags. 1 time I was on the same side as the P.M.D.W.D.Bs and it was miserable. I love this community though.
Scratch that. I love segments of this community. I respect that this community is more mature than say CoD or BF which really don't have communities so much as sandboxes in which people can just be vile towards one another. There is humor here. There is a weird nerd devotion to lore here. I find it rather comforting that the community can rally around individual members when they are going through things in REAL life. Make no mistake, that is unique to a small and dedicated community like Dust. The scout community in particular is terrific. Devoted. Patient. Funny. We know and appreciate that the game is continually in development even as we are neglected and ignored.
But there are elements of the larger community that are just as toxic as CoD/BF/other vanilla shooters. I posted today about some try-hard using a Balac's in a pub ambush against a bunch of blueberries straight out of the academy. I was appalled by him. He went 14-0 and probably felt great about himself despite his unfair SP advantage, his FoTM AR spam and his prototype suit w/ 5x the eHP of most of the individuals on my own team. This sort of player is the poison of Dust 514. Because of the small player base he can't be secluded to matches in which he will face people that will put him in his place and as a result the game as a whole suffers. Scouts, like myself, already at a disavantage, become little more than prey.......
The only reason I'm still here is because, despite the neglect. I love the iterative nature of progress in the game and I love the humor, candor, maturity and relative-sophistication that can be found in parts of the community. We lost Lightning recently, we lost DJINN Marauder recently. We've lost the Scout Kill/Leaderboard - the only one of its kind within the entire community. Hopefully we don't lose another leader like Shotty, because honestly, I'm not sure our tiny sub-community can take it.
For these reasons I am in full agreement that we protest/boycott 1.7. These new weapons look like Kryptonite even to the best scouts. Why waste the isk? When I say boycott I mean boycott. Don't sign on the entire month - maybe then they know we mean business. We would most likely lose members to other games, but that is happening anyway. Why not take advantage of it to make a point?
sorry if this ends up being a double post |

2) You were inactive in 1.6. Collect 100 kills prior to close date to remove the [s].
3) You announced retirement (like Marauder, Lightning, Roner, etc).
4) You're a Scout at heart, but have switched to another suit (like Appia, Knight, etc.).
If you have an [s] over your name in error ...
Or I failed to mark you with [s] in error ...
Please let me know between now and the final update (Dec 9th).
Hey Shotty, I.... actually play Scout more than half the time now.
Something about have the option to use 4 different proto suits or 6 BPOs really helped out. I thing the Templar gear is awesome. I really like the Templar Assault (which is why I can use a neo Assault ak.0 now) But I truly am a Scout at heart. That Allotek Breach is my new best friend. We fight a lot and he lets me down, but when we hang out it is always fun.

Scouts United. Should we all send in support tickets
how about we run our cheapest scout fit possible, squad up, q sync, mass suicide out of the MCC. Match after match till we get a blue tag on a agreed upon post. all we need is the suit and the cheapest weapon we can equip.
Also record the events, post them and link them.
When I look down my scope, all I see are dead people.

This would probably get the most notice of in-game stuff.
Except that we'd have to stick in the MCC, or we'd be gotten at, and the stats would look normal.
Only other noticable thing, would be wave after wave of mass-suicide for scouts, cloning out 10's of matches., with 0 kills, 0 WP on the scout side.
Llast 326's suggestion, of opening support tickets en-mass, would be the most, fastest, notice overall, though.
Methinks we'd have to have something planned very specifically on wording.
It needs to be:
- well-written. that is to say, very clear on our points of pain.
- politely written
- SHORT (Not more than 10 sentances)
And one per account only. |

How about a generic copy paste template? This way they will know that it is a proper protest. Also is we scheduled it so that we all added support tickets between x and y times on z date.
Shotty I nominate you to head this up as your voice is the loudest. Go out with this one last bang. |

I never bothered to ask to get myself on the killboard here due to my terrible kill stats (Despite the worthlessness of KDR, it is still ingrained in my shooter ego)when I flip on Dust, but the loss of Shotty, and the forum focal point of our scout community will hit those of us left hard.
o7 Shotty. Good luck in your future endeavors.
I'm also in for the "protest" and/or a Destiny clan. I personally plan to be playing on the PS3. |

Great job with this thread Shotty, Its to bad Dust 514 is on the ps3 platform.
I been away since 1.3, But I been watching, reading, and hoping Dust stays alive and moves to a new platform. 
Despite what people might say, Dust produced some high skilled players, Hope to see you guys around in ps4 or pc.
Cheers, .

You know, it might be fun, to gang together and, over time, ruin what CCP is trying to do with FW. But then again, is it worth the time and effort?
