Don't sleep on scout class

#1

I’m been playing a few games with scout really taking my time and using bow with cloaked and when playing this class the spotted spam ain’t a issue anymore :D. When u shoot arrows afar they just don’t know where it is coming from so they can’t spot spam. Let this class have squishy health it has its strengths

Yea the bow changes were excellent. Also, don’t forget, they added some survivability to both the scout and hunter class, and we take less damage than before from certain FT weapons. The scout also has increased carrying capacity for there load out now you can equip more than just the healing syringe.

I’ve run 3 matches with my Scout build and I’ve had good success so far. The bow now feels more reliable, since you don’t have to loose the arrow so quickly and it travels faster. The Plasma Caster does take another hit or two to do it’s job but that just means you can’t be as sloppy with it and still dominate.

I like being able to carry something OTHER THAN med kits now, even though you can’t use the Bear Traps.

All around, I think this game is now much closer to good balance that before. Still a little that needs to be worked out but I’m finding a much more encouraging experience now, with a much more viable Predator.

I just feel with the scout class cause u have to play ranged u feel like the predator from the movies movies, I had a game where i wiped out the whole fireteam and they just can find my location one guy started spraying wildly in the trees and to be fair he got a me so I got spooted but I need to have a game where I’m playing meta players cause I really need to see how scout class plays out

Yh and I use the space now to have motion detector which really suits scout, then inly problem there bugs with the trees, when uk dismount and the game still thinks your on the tree and up have to dismount again when you’re on the floor it’s annoying

I’ve been trying out the audio decoy…with mixed results. I may try swapping for the motion detector to see if it proves useful.
