Just decided that scouts need a grenade launcher. Say you have a bunch of guys on top of a building, use a launcher to get a grenade up there and do some damage. Range would have to be fairly small in order to balance the risk/reward. But if we get a speed buff, it may be a viable weapon. Thoughts? Weapon should only be available to scouts. |

I was thinking more in line with the way a grenade launcher works in real life now. Kind of an arching rainbow type of trajectory. |

if there is a bunch of guys on top of a building then find a good perch to sit and snipe them from 400m away. isnt that the sniper way.
I would think a grappling hook to climb walls would be more of a scout tool to take care of guys on a roof. with sniper cover and remote explosives.
guess i watch to many movies. |

Guys, the problem is in PC battles. You can't get a shot on these guys because their movements are so quick. Even if you do hit them, it takes at least three hits to take them down. We need something that will have a lot of splash damage. A sniper rifle just will not cut it...Unless you have a Thale. I have been playing since January and have yet to get one. |

Choose it like equipment, aim and activate and you are propelled to that point at 12 m/s, 30s cooldown |

I just watched a video of some guy tossing grenades in Dust. If I could just get close enough to lob them on top of a building without taking a shot. Maybe they should give scouts a better/stronger arm so we can throw them further. |

I don't believe I have ever touched a sniper rifle. Have always been a CQC scout since uprising. I think it would be helpful if you could perhaps make a separate list of knife specialists? I wouldn't mind being included in that.
Basically would like a list of people I could go pure ninja with if I ever return to playing this game but for now I just scan the forums every few weeks to see if there were any significant changes. There's a cool 10 million isk in it for ya if you do.  [/quote]

Judging by the quality of some gameplay videos, a potato. But in all seriousness, I think that the utility you're looking for is called a capture card. After a quick search on Google, they seem to come in all shapes, sizes, and prices, so you'll just have to do a bit of research on your TV/monitor and find one that works. |

It's a bit of a pain in the butt:
1) use a camera to record the footage straight of the screen but this will almost certainly be bad quality.
2) get a HDMI splitter on your PS3 and a capture card on your PC
I think there's another method that is a bit more fiddly but can't remember how that works but 2) is the best quality method I've seen. Unfortunately, you need to spend money on the bits and bobs and need a PC to fit the capture card. |

Thank you, Dominus. I'm here to serve, but would kindly request that you guys not send Isk.
Should Scouts receive benefit as result of this effort, I will certainly benefit from it as well. I might even "get good" at this game should we get a big buff down the road :p.
So the Registry could be considered quite the selfish endeavor. As such I would have no payment for providing humble service. Also, you guys have become Brothers, and I am pleased to assist to our Community in any way I can.

On the topic of selfish pursuit, I would very much like to someday see an "Assassin's Guild" of deadly Scout Brothers.
Bojo was first to present this idea, and credit is due to him. I'm not sure how his project has fared to date, though I can assure everyone that a Scout-only corp is not even remotely viable in today's PC. Not to say they couldn't hire mediums, heavies and tankers individually. Or remain in the shadows and pay a high-end corp to gain and defend land.
I know pub-stomping is frowned upon, but imagine how intimidating it could be:
The fear of facing a squad of lightning-fast killers you know for a fact you'll never see coming.
Though Bojo's choice of name in "Zanzibar" may fail to instill appropriate levels of fear.
Perhaps "Barber Shop" would be more suitable. <---- an old inside joke, if you're new to this thread.

I've been running the gallente scout for 2-3 weeks now. I don't even like running my proto assault much anymore. I've been dumping all of my SP into everything for scout now as well. If we ever get any kind of respec I will definitely switch to proto scout instead. I do pretty good with it most matches tho. Hopefully it gets a buff to base speed, something like .5 m/s to 1 m/s would greatly help this suit. I'm looking forward to seeing how the changes in 1.4 affect the scout suit. |

Are you the same guy who drives God Hunter Zero?
If so, you were one of the first badarses I met in Dust.
Think I PSN friended you, as likely have many a noob.
I'll add this character to the Registry on next update.

I really hope to squad up with all you guys in a barber shop squad. I can't go back now, I can't be a med frame. The things the scout suit can do are just too cool add to that the cool community we have here and now I'm not so alone in the world of dust. The whole community will cheer once we get our overdue update. I can't wait for ya'll and myself to play with the new updates, let's also not forget about the coming suits.
Everytime I see a scout running around I'm always like "are you serious? There's another scout out there like me; killing even with the unfairness of the game." Anybody can slap an assault suit and be better then us. I hope those days are numbered.
I wish we can get more scout squads running on scouts united, because honestly I like being in a squad with other shafted but deadly as hell scouts. When will the enemy team face six scouts in CQC at the same time? I feel cool when I run with another scout mic or no mic as long as we are in close proximity to eachother we are golden. I love watching the killfeed and see what my scoutly bros are killing with!I kill for you guys, for the Guild. |
