scout tracer darts

Simple enough. a dart shot by a scout, which imbeds itself into vehicles and infantry and then shows up to every on on the team like they where spoted by a camera/radar. now scouts can properly report enemy troops. Maybe a recever has to be placed by a scout/engineer to receve the signal in a limited range.

 

I like the idea and I hope I see it in a upcoming ver

 

How is this different from clicking on an enemy unit with the binoculars?

 

Dosn't that only work on stationary targets? (the ping doesn't move whith the target does it):confused:

 

In theory couldnt you then just ping the entire enemy team? Instead of just 1 target?

 

you could have it only a very short range thing? that way you could sneak into the nme base and say put a little bug on tanks (either by using the tank or by having a weapontypething instead of binoculars

it'd be quite good to give the scouts something to to rather than just rush and try and bite people, they could sit above doorways and in the airvents and tag the otherside for their team to see on the hivesight

 

It stays with the target. It does the same thing that cameras and radars do.

 

Well don't you think it would get annoying with all the scouts clicking players every few seconds, and "requesting artillery..." being played every few seconds?

 

There was a suggestion a while back to have the binocs spot units within a certain radius of their target.
