I'm starting to have doubts about the new scout registry at this point. Often times I feel that my reputation is enough to precede me. Even now there are players out there who I never heard of telling me after the end of the match that as soon as they saw my name on the roster they pulled out their knives. No doubt people like musturd get the same treatment. Hell a great many players have built up their reputations already for their own class.

You called?
Remember back to sometime in December or January when the first stats release for scouts came out. The amount of arguing and discussion about what was needed, what was too much, and what would be wish list/middle ground. It was a lot of vets on the side of we need exactly this much. Any more and we won't keep our identity.
That's what we're really about. Maintaining our identity as scouts. |

Just a question about the board - I've been playing since the last time my merc had her funny walk, I'm only invested in Gal scout.
I get that there is/was a constructive point to the board, and im not going to pretend I play/ed an active part of th scout community (or that Im a good scout) but I can't help thinking its a bit weird that it/was also the only way to determine who was scouting before 1.8 was announced...
Like those films about Vampires/Werewolves/Aliens whatever - where apparently you have to register with proclaimed authority because of the sheer nature of being what you are.
And as for suffering...weren't scouts OP in beta?
This all comes across as a bit bitchy - love you guys really. Personally, I've never really been interested about the whole true scout debacle, or any of the other issues that scouts have had ever since Chromosome and beyond. Frankly, the original reason I signed up for the registry was so I could see how well I fared against other scouts, and leave a tiny mark of my own in DUST history.
I never wanted to participate in the discussion about whether or not scouts are UP, OP or anything in between either, even before 1.8. It's such a heated and controversial topic, and I don't want to stir the pot even more. Maybe its because I blame myself first for my failures before my suit or my weapons, and I'm thus less prone to calling things OP or UP. I just work my way around issues and adapt, no crying done.
I love the rush of adrenaline I get when I successfully sneak abehind enemy lines. I love dodging gunfire and charging straight at an enemy with explosives at hand in a suicidal spur of rage. I love having conversations with redline snipers and other enemies oblivious of my presence, even though they'll never hear me. I love the satisfaction I get when I kill an entire enemy squad by myself using a highly coordinated RE trap and finish off with a shotgun. I just love being a scout, and that's all I need. It being UP, OP or balanced doesn't really matter to me, I'll work my way around issues.
I may not be a famous forum person like Arkena, Shotty and Regnum, or one of the top 10 scouts in existence, or one of the oldest members around, I don't really do anything memorable besides roleplay a lot and write stories, which probably a handful of people will only ever see. I'll most likely just be forgotten in the future as just another faceless grunt, a nobody. Signing up for something like this, and being elevated into a "true/veteran scout" status is my way of saying: "I was there", and have at least a name remain of me years after this thread has ceased to exist.
In the end, I'll continue being a bastard scout with remotes and shotguns until this game is no more.

my main has about 10 million in core skills proto M Scout 8 ish in weapons and 3 unallocated
my glorious alt from memory Adv G light frame (was waiting for more racial scouts) 6 ish in core skills 1 or 2 in weapons (pistols and shotguns if memory serves) 6 unallocated
kind of lost on what exaclty I want to do with them come 1.8 |

Well - thanks for the responses, both informative and supportive.
For what it's worth, I get where the negative view about the new scout reg. comes from, but it's a lot easier for me to believe that it's still mostly just guys who started 1.4/1.5 who still had to put up with some crap in an UP suit against whatever FoTM, without Corp support or any recognition from the community at large to help keep up their morale - the 'working/blue collar scout' as it were.
Or maybe not.
Now that I think about it, Can you imagine just starting the game, making a conscious decision to avoid skilling into logis etc., and getting Gallente light 3 just before 1.8 info hit? I actually just lol'ed, like in an unnecessarily creepy way.
In any case I hate fighting scouts - kinda negates my bonuses, now and in 1.8. Give me a tanked med frame not paying attention and a shotgun any day. Having to outthink an opponent is a lot more difficult than exploiting their weaknesses...
I say this, but every time I spot another scout, I drop everything to find and kill them... I always feel the rest of my team aren't taking the threat seriously enough...
You probably don't know me. But next time you get gunned down or exploded by a Valor scout...check the name.

Cal Scout with 4 Complex Shield Extenders and 2 Complex Damps....hopefully I'll have enough CPU for that :3
From now on, I'll just be running Scout on my alts to get used to the feel, the flanking, and different ways or tactics I can use my Scout for.
Also, would it be worth it to drop the Cloak if I had the 2 Complex Damps? Would the Dampeners even get me around Proto Scanners? Or should I use a Scanner and Remotes? :o

Thanks Shotty. If this takes off it would probably be best to link to this post and the next. (Double posting like a Kaiser)
I have to say that I'm torn now that I've read some replies here.
The intent would be to dedicate a post or two of mine in this thread for an updated "scout registry" and also as a place to put any other relevant info such as links to cool scout info posts. This would be to have a record of current scouts, help integrate the newbros into the community, and basically minimize the number of continually growing scout threads to monitor...
On the other hand I like the idea of keeping this somewhat underground and pointing serious scouts here to keep this thread more manageable, fun, and less prone to invasion by less than serious or troll scouts. Let any other threads pop up and die out as their authors can manage.
I'm leaning towards just letting the newbros do their own registry and I'll post there when interested, while continuing to point other scouts here.
But I'm willing to put in the time to integrate them here if *we* want (or, if we'd like an updated registry for our old timers who didn't post up prior to the closure).

Hi guys,
Just my 2c.
I don't see any need to update here with a new registry. What I would prefer to see instead is a new one go up in General when 1.8 hits inviting all scouts, new and old, to participate (as opposed to the current push to segregate new and old scouts).
From there some will gravitate to this post as the hub of scout randomness, and some from here to Nos Nothi. The FOTM'ers will disappear in time, particularly as scouts will continue to be paper thin. People who are core scouts will continue regardless and we should be welcoming new scouts who enjoy the challenges the class offers.
The original scout registry has served it's purpose, and that purpose was to give scouts a place to hold tight and pull together until they became viable again. It appears that 1.8 will deliver that, and we should be glad that scouts are coming in out of the cold instead of trying to differentiate ourselves from others. Our shared experiences are enough for OG scouts to know each other, but new scouts should be offered the chance to share in that camaraderie as well. Because the scout attitude is what's important, not time played.
So my vote is to let this registry continue as it is, where it is, as a place for scouts of all sorts to socialise and as a reminder for what has gone before. Nos Nothi is where our content goes and scout-crafting takes place, and with 1.8 one of the Nos Nothi alts should post a new registry in general with links to public posts we have put up for the betterment of the community.

We will always have new scouts coming in and really this is a great place for them to get acclimated and bounce thoughts off people. I don't see a reason to exclude people, i am not about to just label all new scouts FTM chasers (Except Patrick he totally is a FOTM chaser ) And while the Registry is an entity in and of itself now, it should really be a place (i.e. storefront) for people to integrate, contribute and grow within it. Besides everybody needs Appia to toughen them up a bit

Also, role specific section is really something I would like to see. CCP should not overlook the value of community building potential that it could bring. This thread is an example of that, good and bad at times. Looks like Aero is doing well with the MandosGǪ although scouts need to bump it from time to timeGǪ speaking of which
