How about a Scouting Certification

[gonnagetyou]

I've got a quick idea for creating a Scout Cert.

Anyone with the Scout Certification would get access to a new tool called the Tagger. The Tagger is a sniper rifle modified to fire darts that affix themselves to enemy armor and vehicles. These Darts give off a signal that can easily be seen by anyone of the same faction as the sniper with at least CR1. In essence, any enemy tagged would show up on the main continental map for any CR1 or higher to view.

The tagging darts themselves do no damage, but any successful tag would net the Scout some small BEP. Say 10 or so.

In addition the Scout would have access to a modified suit of armor equivelent to say agile armor that prevents them from showing up on anyones HUD display. In other words you would have to actually be looking at them in order to see them.

Well, like I said this is just something off the top of my head. For all I know someone may have thought of the same thing.

Anyone in your SQUAD to view on map.

Also if u repair urself, or get healed it should go away

like parasites in Natural selection for HL

and 3 min max timer or it would be overpowered =[

Hmmm, would be kinda cool. Couldn't see myself spending a rifle slot on it though.

Smarter Snipers (generaly) would use the scout armor (so's not to get seen on radar) and instead of the tagger would use the BD.

If they put it a scouting cert I'd demand that it allow you to climb trees, and perhaps base/tower walls.
Wait, maybe that's the Ninja cert...

Ninja cert...yes...yes, that will do nicely. where can we acquire said ninja cert?!? Some one should have the ability to get overwalls and get into trees, maybe the stealth suit should allow it.

I think there should be a broader selection of certs though, seriously.

They could just make that the Advanced Sniping cert and give you access to a new ammo type for the bolt driver.

Yes new bullets that freshen your breath while whitening your teeth.

Oh wait thats toothpaste.

Great idea.

[Feign]

And make the bullets like ACE bullets so they can serve different functions, maybe explosive rounds for armor types and the homing beacon type and then maybe the type that could be used to paint a target for the commanders airstrike!

Wow sweet.
