I like the idea in general but think it should be opened up a little - all players should get some sort of tagging ability, whether sniper, scout, AV, whatever. You can tag one or two players at a time but that tag only remains as long as you maintain line of sight on the target, so it would not be as OP as active scanning.

Perhaps certain things like snipers and scouts give a buff to the number of tags you can have active and/or the length of time the tag lasts after losing LOS? Then sniper scouts would suddenly become really useful - oh yes I think the registry lads will like this!

Hate it. Hate it so much. How long have you been playing DUST? Do you remember how the game was before they took away shared team vision? This is what you would be doing if you gave non-snipers the ability to tag people.

Also keep it on the down-low but scout's passive scans are shared with your squad. well, not entirely accurate, all passive scans are shared within a squad but usually you don't notice when it comes from someone not using a scout suit.

I guarentee you Gal/Cal scouts will become viable squad mates for a slayer squad. Once you hit 100m passive scans that scan at ADV level or higher, every slayer will want you in their squad. It's just like having the old wall hack back (except justified, as the scout class will actually SCOUT the enemy team.) Now if only we got intel points for it...... Nothing says "F**K YOU!" like a direct Flaylock to the face. Minmatar. In Rust we trust.

I'm not saying your wrong. Just saying what I think it is from the difference I notice from using 1 precision vs 2. When running 2 it also seems to me some targets are brighter than others but that could just be because of flashbacks from things I did in my younger years.

I'm not keen on giving out Warpoints for passive abilities. Especially when "spotting" is something that a dozen people could be doing at once. How do we decide which squadmate gets the +5 for having the dead-dot on their radar?

If each non-scout/sniper only got one tag at a time and had to maintain LOS and you had to do the old press R3, wheel select tag, press R1 for every time you wanted to tag someone, it would be next to useless and most likely dangerous for anyone not out in the open with a large field of vision. It would not be anything at all like the olden times "see everyone all the time" shared scan vision mechanics. On the last part, I have previously seen a seemingly random flash of a long off red dot in some matches and wondered why but I was pretty sure none of my squad mates was in the area it appeared. I've never had anyone tell me they've seen someone that I've been passive scanning though; even when they've been standing with me and I'm stalking someone I've had to direct them.

Active participants would be getting +15 all the time, in addition to the +25 wounding bonus we already get. It would increase WPs appreciably across the board for something that requires zero effort. Serious business squads would equip range amplifiers and run in packs to increase orbital throughput, since the value of one kill could be more than doubled: 50 (kill) + 5 * 15 (spotting) = 125 WP.

If you're standing near enough a fight to be passive scanning it, you deserve the reward. If you've only accomplished that by dedicating 3 - 4 slots to range extenders and maybe even precision enhancers, so you're pretty much a sitting duck if you try to do anything, you deserve the points even more. Oh and with active scans you don't get the intel assist if you get the 25wp kill assist - it would be the same for passive intel kill assists.
