No. No one uses it because you get no WP for using it. |

So the only people who use them are mainly support role types and sneaky scouts. Knowing where the enemy is attacking from and how many there are, not to mention tracking them as they move, is very important for survivability.
Yeah I totally agree with you. |

Now if it lit up enemies like the enemy locator grenade in Metal Gear it would be drastically more useful Don't need LoS to scan. 100m range at 60-¦ covers a massive amount of ground, lights up enemies on both radar and HUD via chevrons for the duration. You're not too far away from claiming wall hacks have no practical utility. Yeah, and floating your cross hairs over an enemy gives the same effect even through walls Its a cool piece of gear but it severely lacks when you can get the same effect without it
I might be wrong but the advantages of the scanner is that; when they are scanned they show up on the map and are shown to teammates. (Sorry if I used the semi-colon incorrectly  ) |

(Sorry if I used the semi-colon incorrectly ) No thats right but that effect alone is kind of meh if it can be replicated by just paying attention you know If it had an added effect like painting a target to guide missiles towards it that would be cool
That would be pretty sexy. Also add in a jamming ray or something (lol) to screw up their radar. |
