Bloodhounds scan is definitely not working on KC
I don't know if it's KC exclusive but I just scanned someone and it said no hostiles. I was solo and could hear them outside the building open the door and they were right there.

@DarthValtrex Ok so going back to what i said about the enemy being just outside the peripheral of the scan. I think that really could be a possibility.
If you look at your bloodhounds movement as he scans he aims off to the left of the door as he scans, whereas your enemy is to the right behind the crates.
Now with that in mind even if a BH scan covered a full 180° radius in front of him( Which it doesn't as the scan is conical, they just increased the range), that enemy would have been outside the radius if you get me?
I could be wrong but from viewing that i think that may be the issue.
- @MandatoryIDtag I thought it scanned in a circle radios?
@DarthValtrex Nah, you'd be able to scan people behind you if that was the case. It's definitely conical, the area of coverage gets larger at the further extremities of the scan as obviously a cone as wider at one end than the other. 😛
A lot of people i've come across in the past have complained his scan doesn't work properly but it turned out to be this reason as the cause.
- @MandatoryIDtag <— this guy’s right and as a BH main I can attest to the conical scan. It has a wide conical shape or if you wil a duo cone (one for each eye) which doesn’t have a gap in the middle.
So as soon as the scan goes out, if something is like 2m to the right of BH at a distance of like 2m, the scan wont detect it because it’s just out of range.
Thats the funny thing about the scan, most think it scans everything around...
you can actually see the “wave” of the scan if bloodhound does it somewhere high and in the open
