GG earlier, that was a close game and you were tearing it up with your Scout

man this troll post is hilarious

Didn't Suzuki make newer 750s with a switch that let you go from 750CCs to 600?

I hear you on the liter bike.. too heavy and way too fast :) 600s are way funner imho, and hell.. after all the aftermarket parts I may as well have a liter bike. If you guys get something going for motoGP down in laguna seca I'd ride down!

Most of the newer bikes come with the engine map selector switch which will switch the software to map different air/fuel/timing parameters to limit the output of the bike. Usually they go mode "A" for no electronic intervention, mode "B" for same top end power but with less output in lower RPM ranges for slower acceleration, and mode "C" for it's raining and I only need 70 HP.....

And a lot of newer liter bikes have traction control now... but I'd rather just have a good 600 or a 750 and own. Light is right and skill > electronic riding gizmos!

I've never made it to Laguna... I always seem to be working but if I do I'll let you know! Been to Moto GP Indy. It was awesome! Come to think of it, I went with a fellow-scout...!

-- Back on topic --

that invisible shotgunner post is really scary... I'm in awe that he thinks current scouts are OP. A few scout teams are seriously talented, but i doubt very many individual scouts are OP. Sure, a few. The suit sure isn't.... the play style sure isn't.

I can see how this could appear to be lag/rendering issue to someone, even though the reality was just exploiting the limited field of view and his speed and willingness to get up close an personal

The funny thing is, as a strat, this would be just as effective with a medium suit t.

Through taking part in the heavies event I'm starting to understand why there's this misconception on the relative OPness of scouts.

Had a match where I kept running up against a shotgun scout who was quite good. I think he got me three times out of five while I was running a 1200 EHP heavy, and two of those were from full health. He was able to get up close as soon as my back was turned from quite a distance, even though I was constantly scanning, and by the time I'd turned around to respond to the blasts to the back of the head I'd already be into armor. Added to that, once I could see him, he was so close that he would effectively be standing inside my arc of movement and maintaining a track was difficult.

Most scout use binary fits, where you either very rapidly overwhelm the opposition, or very rapidly die. People only remember the rapid overwhelming bit because they think it shouldn't be possible from a suit that falls apart if you frown at it, and not how easy it is for them to kill a scout if they catch them out.

I think I've found my calling as a shotgun scout.

So. Much. Fun.
Pure BPO, I give no fucks about dying and it's hilarious. Protologi surrounded by enemies? BANZAI!

You have Embraced the Death

Yeaaahhh, I know what you mean, too.

Only trouble is..... I think I embrace it a little TOO much, as scout.
Playing 'ninja heavy' this week, has done wonders for my KDR

Its kinda funny what you can do, when you have scout tactics, scout stealth, scout see-through-walls-they-cant-see-you....
but you also have 1,000 HP

Ha! I didnt just "happen" to turn around.... I was in hunt mode.
I was actively looking for an excuse to stab someone.
Dont feel bad... you werent the only one

Normally, I use knives on heavy, for objective anti-hacking. That being said...
one of my best knife kills, was when I snuck up on some medium or light frame... it was a partially enclosed area. And the poor fool backed into a corner.
So then of course I had to switch to knife and finish him off

I think my record so far is 6 knife-by-heavy kills in one match.
Sweet, sweet gallente labs...

PS: I use controller only

Yeah lol waited u out for the re kill tho

Philistine!
One who carries knives, should honor them!

This right here, I like sp as much as the next guy, but I'm not even bothered trying to max it. Hell, I only ever maxed the standard weekly cap once.

Our squad of scouts just had the most epic moment, it was me, Yan Darn, Maken Tosch, Lorelei Zee, Shotty Mayhem and Phalad Sahantun, my logi corpmate. We were all playing on the Gallente Research Facility.

There was this guy named TonZa, using a commando suit with a proto rail rifle, who was really annoying. On the ramp that's outside rhe CRU on B objective, we saw the commando coming up. So every single one lf us just waited around the corner, patiently waiting for this commando to waddle up the ramp. And just when he cleared the corner, he was being knifed and shot at by all six of us.

We were just laughing our assess off as the commando instantly panicked and backed up while we slaughtered him, it was the most epic moment ever.

o7 to everyone involved
