My Crypto Ideas (in depth)
SO EVERYONE! While Crypto has seen his place in ALGS, he still struggles in pick rate among the general player base, coming in at 1.6%, the lowest along with Newcastle. This, I believe, is because h...

@ThisIsYourMomentJust so happens I got around to making a video to demonstrate follow mode:
To you questions/Concerns:
I don't really see it as a big issue that you need to be in follow mode to throw for recon, the idea being that you should be sticking in follow mode unless you are trying to be really sneaky.
My concerns with reversing the order is that it unnecessarily makes his kit more clunky. For instance if you just want your drone out after landing or after you are forced to redeploy your drone, you would have to tap twice rather than just once.
Noise wise I agree that the drone noise is a bit much for its limited sight range. I think they should either make it less noisy or give it better spotting range to compensate.
For follow distance, it should ideally be right behind his left or right shoulder and follow his movements. It does make it suceptible to spray fire, but that is intended so that a self-EMP can still be countered in follow mode.
With it following right around his shoulder, it should not have any issue with the Gibby sized doors, but persay it does have an issue they can just let it "grind" against the wall until it catches up to its target.
If you enter drone mode while the drone is in follow mode it would stop in place once you gain control.
Always good to discuss this stuff, its hard to explain the intricacies of the mode over a forum post.
I think he should be able to move his drone the same way Vantage and Newcastle can move the Bat / Shield.
That alone would be of great benefit to not have to sit and be out of the fight.
- @Smeknille wouldn't that change his playstyle completely?
- @pinkpinaplle Yes it would. Would still be good to jump in to it to get in to houses etc tho.
@SmeknilleWhile that sounds nice in theory, getting the drone to face the right direction would be a nightmare, as evidenced by @Kinesis862’s video. While the scan angle is still wide at 240°, it still would not be near as functional as you would hope. A way around this is for them to buff scan angle to 360°, but I honestly don’t see them doing that any time soon.
