- Trokey664 years agoSeasoned Ace@JRiv_Eagle Or perhaps you set up a portal server with no spotting?
Spotting is a 'core' mechanic in BF that is needed for teamplay and to aliviate some visibility issues.
My opinion of course. - JRiv_Eagle4 years agoRising Adventurer@Trokey66 I get it and totally understand. By scope and pin point accuracy yes. Not wall hack. Imo.
- Trokey664 years agoSeasoned Ace@ragnarok013 You forgot a light fart putting you on the mini map as well.....
From an information point of view, a red dot, dorito or red outline has no fundamental difference at the end of the day. The player presented with any form of this information still has to decided how to deal with the threat and in most circumstances, I doubt the red outline will influence that decision in any real way. - Trokey664 years agoSeasoned Ace@R1ckyDaMan19 From the latest video, it would also appear to be an individual 'perk' with the outlines visible to the player only.
I may be wrong but the fact that it is 'glasses' supports that assumption.
I do genuinely think this is another knee * reaction to something we don't know enough about. Nerfing/buffing anything before release (especially as not in the Beta) is wrong in my opinion.

Even if Paik's scanner used the traditional 3D spotting dorito that moved you still don't know which way the enemy is facing and how exactly he is hiding just his direction of movement or non-movement which IMO is still more balanced than Paik's current ability.

The whole chess community went NUTZ, it was so unrealistic, and it was like cheating. The knights were already OP AF with their weird movement pattern!
Look at this 18th century OG gamer. True story by the way. I looked it up.
