According to this thread:
Gallente
hydra
Turalyon

Added each of those channels just now.
Gallente- no one in it but me
hydra- no one in it but me
turalyon- decent number of eve toons, only 1 other dust character.

People might jump in them closer to the event but eh..
Doesn't look good finding squads in any of them lol. Was worth a shot though.

So non-Scouts are basically asking that our long awaited buff involve "Shared Squad Sight" specific to Scouts.

I can't tell you how many times I've had AR rounds pass over my shoulder as I stalk an unaware target.
Seems to me "Shared Squad Sight" would mean that this annoying occurrence would become commonplace.
Am I missing something here or are these guys asking that the Scout buff benefit them more than us?

Don't get me wrong, I understand that Recon is a part of our job.
But I prefer to "recon" when and what I choose by painting it with an Active Scanner.
Why not just give us two equipment slots so RE, Uplink, and Support oriented Scouts can do the same?

Faction warfare event, I don't think many if any of my corp plays for gallente. So I'm gonna be hitting up the scouts united channel like crazy. Just sayin.

I'm so sick of the damn AR how the **** does a plasma weapon hit at that kind of range?

And this after they nerfed the SG range which is also a plasma weapon

it's a problem with the player base whose behavior is encourage by CCP's (unintentional) lowering of the TTK and making builds other than eHP tanking less effective.

So I managed to Nova Knife a moving LAV driver tonight... highlight of my dust career thus far. I really wish I was able to capture video on my PS3 or I would have shared the moment. Got his gunner right after the vehicle rolled to a stop too

Did you jump on the hood?

No it was kind of a bull fighter thing. I dodged just to the side and let my stab go right as he was passing by literally inches from me. He wasn't going full out speed as he was making a second pass from a failed roadkill just a few seconds before on myself and another guy. Honestly, I attribute it to some luck but it was awesome none-the-less!

Hey Idye

Have fun, come back now you hear! ;-)

Having a lot of fun with my lonewolf radar scout playing point defense. 30 db signature, 45m range, and under 30 precision fitted with high alpha weapons: RE, crg sg, M1s, and breach scrambler pistol. 30k isk.

Its a nice departure from my run'n'gun lsr/plc/md/sg fits and its REALLY interesting to see what the enemy is doing behind that wall. Bonus is spotting uplinks and hives from afar and flanking when I get bored of waiting. Also learning a lot about approach pathways and which are hardest to defend or LOS...so I can use them later!

All entry points/chokeholds at the gallente facility are prime as are the new structures with internal stairwell, long window, and two entries.

No comms, listen for footsteps ( I suspect scouts can "hear" further), and learn to minimize own footstep noise.

This is a lot of fun, and how i spend a fair bit of time in battle. I like bringing Flux grenades to disrupt the supply/uplink lines, and cause panic.

Whut? grenades? that's overkill, unless the stupid things are surrounded.
You gotta go in there and knife em. Then they have no indication what happened.


Unless your idea is just to freak them out by seeing flux grenades go off and make them think a full squad is going to hit them.

When some enemies bunker right down and spam equipment, Flux undoes a lot and generally causes an over reaction, with people running to walls and entrances. Panic is one motivator that works, especially when they lose shields
Place your own REs near corners and nooks, people hide in those places when shields drop
If they only have a few links down I knife mop them up, then stalk anyone in the building. I love knifing people when they go "huh, i was sure i put a hive here, oh well, i'll throw another down"

"Having a designated medic type role is pointless if everyone can just equip an injector. Why take an extra person when you can just fit a piece of cheap equipment?"

PS:



"Controller: you're using it wrong"

How can you NOT be able to do this?
Sounds like you're just too chicken to try it. Its freakin easy. You dont even have to charge the second one, so it comes in before the enemy even has the time to register "what, I got hit by something?"
That's an immediate extra 300 followup attack. Plus,if they're hacking in one of those little 3-side boxes I like to call deathtraps, even a trained monkey couldnt miss.
Maybe your problem is evidenced by the fact you even mention shotguns in here. Forget about the shotgun when you have an open back to you. Knife >>> shotgun.

Besides which, in pub battles, i've never seem a logi with more than 1000 hp. lots of 800s, sure.

you can be running after a even a heavy target behind their back and never be able to actually catch up and knife them because as soon as you switch to charging you slow down to crawl and and in the time it takes you to swing the target is gonna take one step forward which is enough for the swing to miss consistently.

When you don't get your OHK, even a heavy is now fast enough to track all your movements in CQC compared to you.
...

This is what happens consistently with sneak up tactics.
