Spycrab Potato Hold-Your-Fire 163	Posted - 2013.07.29 20:22:00 - [1] - Quote If I am helping in a push on an objective, I just whip it out and scan the objective revealing ALL enemies nearby. If I am in a firefight and I have lost the person I am fighting, just scan the wall where I last saw him and POOF there he is. I just wish that we got SP for it. But I shall continue to use this new gadget I have found and fallen in love with.

Andius Fidelitas The Southern Legion 102	Posted - 2013.07.30 00:21:00 - [6] - Quote As a tanker, it is highly valuable. When one is zooming, it definitely reduces one's peripheral, and one's visual alertness. But with a radar at hand, it can definitely decreases the odds of getting jumped by a swarm of AV-ers with AV grenades, which can be pretty effective at dispatching distracted tanks (especially redliners, hehehehe).
Rynoceros Rise Of Old Dudes 396	Posted - 2013.07.30 00:27:00 - [7] - Quote Duh moment of the day... I thought they worked passively. Despite Active being in the title and filling an equipment slot. The shame. I skilled (Lvl 3) into them, thought they didn't work. The shame. So, guess what I'm doing tonight? (Reviewing my ability to decipher context clues is just one.)

Edit: OP fixed thread title. I've found the passive scanning modules to help with the MD. I'm working up to the complex range amplifier and might work on the precision enhancer next to prevent getting stuck up on by scouts.

With my scanner I can see if someone is hiding around the corner and then I can pop off a couple of shots next to them. That is one of the major advantages I see with the mass driver. You don't have to see your opponent to kill them!

notoire Defensores Doctrina 0	Posted - 2013.07.30 00:54:00 - [11] - Quote they really do need to start giving sp for using it. i've been finding that i can practically rts a nice little ambush match so that my team mates are always moving toward the enemy, but then i go 0/0 lol
THE TRAINSPOTTER ROMANIA Renegades C0VEN 54	Posted - 2013.07.30 04:30:00 - [12] - Quote SP for what? for doing nothing? you not killing anyone by SCANNING i cant see how or why you could get SP from scanning its like when an enemy does something to appear on your radar , you want SP then too? and before you jump to my throat i use scanner too so yeah i know

I want to use it but it feels like my team doesn't look at the map or just dumb. I think it's both ._.

Only downside is the person using it does not get WP for spotting enemies. It works good though. we plan to add WP for scanning as soon as we can
Kasote Denzara A Vulture 46	Posted - 2013.07.30 05:39:00 - [17] - Quote I too love Active Scanners. Wish my more used heavy suit could use it though.

There is a weapon attachment specifically for it. Imo spotting regularly(having your crosshair on an enemy so your whole team can see them) should yield 1-2 SP if that spotted enemy is killed. Enemies kille after being scanned by the active scanner should yield like 4-5 WP to the spotter.
