I think this would be a good way to balance it out and make the Scout class actually be useful for reconnaisance. ---

Yes I Agree. The other spotting would be auditory and on small CD as it used to be. ---

It will make snipers play a more important part in Battlefield again. ---

Best suggestion so far But BF1 does have an improvement that makes it just a bit less casual.You can only see spotted enemies that are in direct line of site,and if they go behind a building it instantly disappears ---

I’ll +1 this. Then when hillhumpers say “I’m helping, I’m helping!” it would actually be true for a change. ---

> [@HaveThisRocket](#): > > But BF1 does have an improvement that makes it just a bit less casual.You can only see spotted enemies that are in direct line of site,and if they go behind a building it instantly disappears Wow, seriously??? This really makes counterplay finally possible. So you mean, when I getting out of “Line Of Sight” then my mark disappear? Really good if so. ---

can they just do away with 3D spotting? I would agree to spotting only for scouts only to show up on Minimap ---

Me in similar thread: I’d be totally fine with 3d spotting being limited to scout class if it could only be done with binoculars. So you would have to equip binoculars as a gadget, switch to them in game, zoom in, then press spot. ---

I think it should just disappear and not come back. ---

Not a competition bud, as long as it gets in the game! 😄 > [@pHill-Ace](#): > > Me in similar thread: > > I’d be totally fine with 3d spotting being limited to scout class if it could only be done with binoculars. So you would have to equip binoculars as a gadget, switch to them in game, zoom in, then press spot. That sounds even better. But then if it would be a gadget that takes up a slot in place of another weapon then you should get more points for spotting.
