someone just has to make a good version of the shader-scout. A version that does not give shader cancer to everyone around the scout
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1034763/Development or PC screenshots/hl2_scout_refractionshader2[20MB].avi You mean that? Screenshot from the above video.
That video is old. It's one thing to have the shader, it's quite another thing to have it implemented. A way of activating it (because obviously an unlimited length would be dumb with that kind of hide) that draws on the GUI, plus a bar for depletion etc. It's a shame, it would have been nice.
But that wasn't the suggestion, was it? It was to make the scunts even harder to detect than they are.
Problem with scouts at the moment is that the hide is unlimited. But yeah, ignore Sprayer, he's just dumb.
Uhu so I guess a hidden scout who has 4 red stripes is supposed to be seen from any distance. You are just mad i don't like your ogame.
while fixing those red blood stains why don't we fix the eyes aswell? I hope you guys noticed that when a scout is hidden his eyes are still 100% visible.
Honestly, I just love that feeling when I see a scout with blood spatters on him, and know just how mad he'll be when I kill him. And the fact that you're posting this means that you are one of the aforementioned mad people (Sprayer). Thus, if you're mad, everyone is happy.
No Trickster, I find it too easy to spot hidden scouts with their bloodstains. If I was shot as hidden scout, I would have no way of knowing it happened because I had bloodstains on me. Also, when did you ever see me use hide skill as scout?
Mostly I was on the spotter and finisher side, I also played some time the lol hidden scout ninjaing into bases role too. It is quite fun, sneaking in a base where there are players around, and sabotaging stuff, and its kinda works well with the current hide. Hide skill I think is meant for cameras, detectors, turrets, and trolling newbies of course, but not against player "eye" spotting, , so its totally fine. So if you want to buff the scout class, there are other (better) ways to do it.
I remember the time where I went scunt to sab the enemy main VF with BigTeef as the enemy commander. All I kept saying in chat was something like: "I HOPE U LIK DEM 50% HP VEHICLES TEEF" "HEY TEEF, THX FOR THE LIGHT NOW I CAN SMOKE" "WATS DIS, MAI VEHICLE IS YELLOW AND TEEF IS RAGING? GOD BLESS BSHIT" etc... after like 3-5 minutes they found me though but it still was awesome.
